Massage Therapy as a Complementary Treatment to Chiropractic Care

Massage therapy has been utilized for thousands of years as a holistic approach to medicine. This form of noninvasive and hands-on therapy has many different types of benefits and is proven to be effective in relieving pain and stress. While there are many different forms of massage, they all focus on your health and well-being in mind, and they strive to heal your body, soul and mind through a gentle and non-conventional approach to healing.

At Chiropractic Central in Wilmington, we recognize that you have a choice when it comes to where you seek help for your injuries and pain relief, but by choosing our clinic you will be sure that your therapy is tailored for your specific issues or goals, and that our chiropractor will oversee your journey to good health.

Our chiropractor, Dr. Lude, firmly believes that your health is central to his care. This means that he is not only interested in what you have to say about your health, but he is also committed to finding the root of your problem, and not just treating the symptoms. His drug-free treatments and years of experience are at your disposal when you make an appointment with him at our clinic. He may recommend massage therapy to be used in conjunction with your treatments for back pain, headaches, herniated disc or many other conditions. Like spinal decompression, massages are intended to leave you feeling whole, rested and pain free.

Wilmington Massage Therapy Has a Variety of Benefits

The benefits of a massage by one of our licensed massage therapists at our clinic in Wilmington are many and include: stress relief, muscle relaxation, increased mobility and motion of joints, temporarily decreases blood pressure, reduces stiffness, aids in cancer treatments, relieves pain and can help the recovery process from an injury. Massages can help people of any age, from infants through to seniors, and they can be tailored to your specific needs. If you find the pressure of a massage too great it can be adjusted. Conversely, if you would like more pressure our therapist can accommodate that as well. Where else can you have such customized treatments?

There are many different forms of massage but each utilizes the concept of muscle and joint manipulation through strokes of varying firmness, kneading and circular motions. As our massage therapist works on your muscles, there is an increase in blood flow that not only aids in the removal of toxins from your body but this blood flow can also aid your immune system as it delivers vital nutrients and white blood cells to areas of disease or poor health. The result should be rejuvenating, healing and optimally you should see a decrease in your symptoms.

Common ailments like back pain, headaches, herniated disc, arthritis, blood circulation problems and more can all benefit from massage therapy. Whether you are seeking treatment for an injury or just general pain relief, therapy such as this can help you greatly. Like conventional chiropractic treatments such as decompression, massages are going to help you achieve wellness so that you can live your best possible life. After all, nobody in Wilmington, or anywhere, should live with pain or discomfort. Call us at 910-795-4604 to find out about our massage therapy options.
