Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy is a rapidly growing addition to health and fitness routines, and an effective complement to other health care services. Many people seek therapeutic massage as a natural means to promote healthy body functioning, and to enhance the body's own restorative powers.

When used along with chiropractic care, massage therapy can help improve circulation and muscle tone

The most common reasons for getting a massage are:

  • General Relaxation
  • Revitalization
  • Relieve Sore or Tight Muscles
  • Relieve Tension Headaches
  • Recover from Sports Activities
  • General Health and Fitness
  • Improve Circulation
  • Complement Other Health Care

Most important is that therapeutic massage is an age-old remedy which has proven to be an effective complement to Chiropractic care. Problems in the muscular-skeletal system can impede the natural healing process, and often cause dysfunction and pain. Most chiropractic doctors would agree that it is important to treat soft tissue such as muscles and tendons to help prevent and correct subluxation, and lessen the accompanying pain.

Together, chiropractic and massage provide you with a more complete and effective system of health care.

Dr. Jay  Asks some important questions of interest to Clark residents - Chiropractor Clark Dr. Jay Asks...

What causes vertebral subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
Why are frequent visits advised when starting chiropractic care?
Consistent visits at the beginning of your chiropractic care help create the momentum necessary to correct and retrain unhealthy spinal patterns. Later, Clark patients find that continued care on a less frequent visit schedule can help preserve their progress and avoid a relapse.
