Healing from the Inside Out

For centuries, massage therapy has been one of the most enjoyable ways to find relief from aches and pains or to simply relax after a stressful week.

However, there is a big difference between a hot stone massage you get from your local health spa and a medical massage that is aimed at treating uncomfortable symptoms.

Traditional medicine typically uses a combination of OTC medications, physical therapy, or even surgery to treat pain. But medical massage therapy works hand-in-hand with traditional chiropractic care to provide you with effective, lasting relief.

Medical massage therapy is designed to target specific areas of pain and discomfort to relieve the pain in addition to promoting healing and relaxation.

All massages work wonders at stretching out soft tissues, improving blood flow, and providing a feeling of gentle relaxation, but therapeutic massage is a world apart from your average spa treatment!

At a spa, massage is simply a way to relax your body and mind. But a therapeutic massage focuses on treating underlying injuries and health conditions to provide healing from the inside out.

At Lakes Chiropractic & Wellness, our licensed massage therapists are trained in a wide variety of massage techniques to treat a wide variety of conditions.

Whether you suffer from stiff joints, car accident pain, or age-related complaints, Lakes Chiropractic and Wellness can help you get back to feeling your best.

The Benefits of Medical Massage

Medical massage—much like chiropractic adjustments—is not just for the spine.

There are many different types of massage, each one specifically designed to address a specific health concern. Chances are, if you’re feeling pain, there’s a massage for that!

Chiropractic massage can be helpful when recovering from a car accident or some other blunt trauma and for treating the following conditions:

Medical Massage and Chiropractic Care

The combination of medical massage and chiropractic care can provide a comprehensive and holistic approach to pain relief and injury recovery.

While chiropractic care focuses on the alignment and mobility of the spine and other joints, medical massage focuses on soft tissue manipulation to relieve muscle tension and pain.

A chiropractic adjustment properly aligns your spine while medical massage improves blood flow and releases tension from your muscles to help them better support your bones and joints.

Together, chiropractic and massage therapy promote overall healing from the inside out, not just relieving your pain but finding the cause of the pain and correcting it.

Is Chiropractic Safe?

Chiropractic care is one of those medical practices that divides opinion. From the outside, chiropractic adjustments can certainly seem scary.
