Massage Therapy
We are here to help you learn about the amazing world of massage therapy and alternative medicine as a whole. Massage therapy has a long history in cultures across the entire world, it’s been practiced for hundreds if not thousands of years now. These days, people use a wide variety of massage techniques for a truly massive number of ailments and issues.
People utilize medical massage for a variety of health-related purposes, such as to relieve chronic pains, rehabilitate chronic sports injuries that just won’t seem to go away, reduce stress from work, promote general relaxation, help with depression, and aid general wellness. They do so many things, it’s almost easier to talk about what a massage CAN’T do! It’s an unfortunate truth that stress is all too prevalent in all of our daily lives. Stress can lead to lots of negative things like weight gain, mood swings, and poor overall health. A massage truly could be what you need to get over all the stresses in your life.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractors have an uncanny ability to reduce bodily pain and heal certain areas of the spine and body through simple manipulation. What many people do not realize is that there are also several other services and tools they are offered to help a much larger range of individuals with health problems. Besides just alteration, our doctors can offer guidance on building your health, including strengthening exercises, as well as proper heavy lifting protocol and education to keep your spine as healthy as possible. A single alteration can do a whole lot, but it takes continued work to find the results that you want.
Work on Your Own Health at Home
YOU have to work for it if you want to see the best results for anything from a massage to a chiropractic adjustment. One of the most damaging things within our society is poor posture. A lot of us hunch over a desk all day, not taking breaks to stretch and walk around often in any respect. This absence of stretching and motion may have a devastating impact on your spine and throat health in very little time. Here’s a fun fact for you: for each inch your head is past your center of gravity, you’re placing around an additional 10 pounds of strain on your neck. This may not seem like a great deal but it’s really a ton and over time can result in severe damage. It is well worth taking a few minutes to sit and stretch in the correct position, it may go a long way towards your general health and pleasure.
