How Massage Therapy Can Help With Pain Management

Massage therapy is an ancient technique to help relieve pain and aid healing. Massage therapy offers several important benefits, making it an excellent choice for pain management. Consider that massage therapy will:

• Relax and lengthen muscles, relieving muscle strain and pain
• Increase blood circulation, to diffuse pain and promote healing
• Improve flexibility and mobility, so you can experience less pain while staying active
• Promote a sense of overall relaxation and wellness, by relieving pain and stress

Massage therapy is a natural, medication-free choice for pain management. You need to consider massage therapy if you are experiencing pain due to:

• Chronic headaches and migraines
• Facial pain including TMJ problems
• Arthritis and degenerative joint problems
• Nerve pain, including peripheral neuropathy
• Sprained or strained muscles, tendons, or ligaments
• Circulatory and digestive problems
• Allergies and sinus issues
• A recent or past surgical procedure

Many factors can lead to acute or chronic pain, including a medical condition or disease, aging, inactivity, overuse, an auto accident, or an injury. No matter what is causing your pain, massage therapy can help you feel better.

Massage therapy is an important part of pain management and can be combined with other chiropractic and wellness services, including manual adjustments, thermal therapy, physical therapy, nerve stimulation therapy, and more.
