Oxford Chiropractic Care: Massage

"Ahhhh..." is music to a massage therapist's ear!

Massage therapy is generally thought of for relaxation, but massage therapy can be so much more when tied together with chiropractic techniques. Massage treatment administered in the chiropractic office goes for the "Ahhhh..." response as well as more targeted soft tissue and muscle work to release tightness and allow the adjustment's realignment of bones and its resulting pain relief to last longer. Massage treatment keeps in step with the Cox Technic protocols.

What is Massage Therapy?

Complementary to chiropractic care at Satterwhite Chiropractic with Cox Technic Flexion Distraction and Decompression spinal manipulation, massage therapy is the manual manipulation of the body's soft tissue structures through a variety of methods ranging from relaxing to rehabilitative. Soft tissues include muscle, skin, tendons, fascia, ligaments and joint capsules. These are often related when the spine and extremities are in pain.

With massage therapy, function, flexibility and overall circulation of the soft tissues increase.
