Therapeutic
Massage Many practice members ask about the value of massage in combination with their chiropractic care. While chiropractic care focuses on the relationship between the spine and its impact on the nervous system, massage focuses on the muscle component. These two disciplines work very well in conjunction with one another. Massage/Therapies Available: Swedish or Relaxation massage is wonderful for you, your friends or visitors from out of town. Pretty much anyone can do this and enjoy it. It is the most common and involves working the superficial muscles and tissues. This technique can also help break up adhesions and scar tissue.. to a degree. If you are injured though, consider deep tissue massage. Deep Tissue Therapy is far more involved and requires the skills of a trained and experienced therapist. This isn't what you'll find at Massage Envy or the Spa where you get facials as well. Increased pressure is applied to fully release the deeper muscles of the body. You will find that trigger points are used more often in this modality. Trigger points are locations in the muscle that when pressure is applied, refer pain to a site distant from the location of the applied pressure. The idea is to open up communication pathways with nerves in the body. This is decidedly therapeutic and is sometimes even uncomfortable. The results however, speak for themselves. This type of massage is sought for sports injuries, car accidents, chronic and degenerative problems and scar tissue. Reiki / Craniosacral Therapy uses extremely "light" touch and both modalities use energy rather than force to correct tissue tension and muscle imbalances. This is used when not only the musculoskeletal system is affected but there are also coexisting problems like fibromyalgia, depression, bipolar disorder and other so called, "organic" problems. Shiatsu, a Japanese term meaning "finger pressure", is a style of therapy that has its roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). There are various styles and techniques used in the practice of Shiatsu which affects the (12) twelve energy meridians of the body. It directly affects the nervous and skeletal systems, strengthens the immune system, regulates hormonal and digestive function, relieves pain and relaxes the body. Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) is a whole body, hands-on approach for the evaluation and treatment of the human body. With its focus on the bodies "fascial system", MFR addresses the restriction from trauma caused by injury. By releasing specific fascial planes within this uninterrupted, three-dimensional system, we are able to substantially reduce if not completely eliminate joint pain, muscle pain and unexplained headache-like symptoms. Hot Stone Therapy involves the use of relaxing and invigorating heat from warmed stones. The stones are used to apply heat to areas in addition to massage. This helps improve circulation and blood flow and just feels really good. Hot stone massages are very common on the west coast and is becoming more popular here. We've got a Californian massage therapist versed in hot stone. The stones have been collected from the ocean. They are flat and hold heat very well. This is a delightful and exhilarating experience.
