"Ahhhh..." is music to a massage therapist's ear!
Massage therapy is typically thought of for relaxation, however massage therapy can be so much more when combined with chiropractic techniques. Massage treatment provided in the chiropractic office seeks the "Ahhhh..." response as well as more targeted soft tissue and muscle work to relieve tightness and allow the adjustment's realignment of bones and its subsequent pain relief to last longer. Massage treatment goes hand-in-hand with the Cox Technic protocols.
What is Massage Therapy?
Complementary to chiropractic care at New Roads Chiropractic Center with Cox Technic Flexion Distraction and Decompression spinal manipulation, massage therapy is the manual manipulation of the body's soft tissue structures through an assortment of methods ranging from relaxing to rehabilitative.
