Massage Therapy

Massage is a natural method by which minor aches and pains can be soothed away while bringing relief from stress, tension, and fatigue. The effects of massage differ from one client to another depending on the needs of the individual and the goals and intentions with which the massage is administered. Many healthy people believe that frequent massage helps them to remain physically, mentally, and emotionally fit.

Therapeutic effects of massage include general relaxation, increased metabolism through improved circulation; an injury heals more quickly, and improves the detoxifying functions of the lymphatic system.

Massage therapy compliments chiropractic care by relaxing tense muscles that are aggravating subluxations.  Chiropractic care corrects the spine and restores the nervous system. When combining massage therapy with chiropractic care, most people get faster and longer lasting results.

We have a wonderful team of nationally certified therapists that are well qualified to perform deep tissue, Swedish, sports injury, hot stone, prenatal, lymphatic drainage and myofascial release massage therapy.
