How Massage Therapy from Sequim Chiropractic Clinic Can Help You

Massage therapy is one of the best complements to the hands-on adjustments that our chiropractor, Dr. Robert Bean, uses to help our patients on their way to whole body wellness. We offer Sequim massage therapy because it can be an excellent way to reduce inflammation, increase your ability to move freely, and to eliminate pain.

Massage for Back Pain or Neck Pain

Massage, which is simply the careful manipulation of the body's muscles and connective tissues, is often combined with chiropractics as a solution for neck pain or back pain. Our Sequim patients will frequently visit our chiropractor to get their spinal vertebrae adjusted to the proper position, which allows for pain reduction. Following that, Dr. Bean may recommend that patients visit our massage therapist for massages that are targeted for your specific pain-causing condition.

The type of massage and method of massage therapy will depend upon the patient's condition and pain problems. Massage therapy techniques include stroking and kneading the muscles and connective tissues, and, in some cases, using specialized massage therapy machines that help reduce pain.

Patients and the massage therapist will work together to achieve pain relief. The massage therapist will focus on delivering gentle pain relief to the specific problem areas that have been identified by Dr. Bean, and the patient and therapist will then discuss the therapy as it progresses. The goal of massage therapy is to provide additional pain relief, allow for improved range of motion, and to help prevent sore and seized up muscles and soft tissues in the body.

Massage therapy produces immediate results in almost all cases: After even one session, patients generally feel more relaxed and will feel less pain than they did prior to the massage. We are determined to help you achieve total wellness, and massage can be an integral part of that! Have you had massage therapy? Tell us how it helped you!
