Treating Chronic Pain With Therapeutic Massage and Chiropractic Care
Chronic pain can significantly affect your quality of life, making it hard to sleep, eat, exercise, work, and enjoy your hobbies. At Genesis Physical Medicine and Chiropractic, we have a team of compassionate, experienced Fort Lauderdale chiropractors and massage therapists who specialize in chronic pain relief and pain management. We combine chiropractic care and massage therapy to offer lasting pain relief and improve your quality of life.
Benefits of Combining Massage and Chiropractic Care
Both massage therapy and chiropractic care offer non-invasive, drug-free pain relief. When combined, they can be a powerful pain management method as they address the physical and mental effects of chronic pain. Both treatment options promote relaxation, address underlying issues that affect the nervous system and musculoskeletal system, and promote the release of pain-killing hormones and healing chemicals. When you undergo regular chiropractic care and massage, you can find lasting relief from pain and inflammation and get treatment for the underlying cause of your pain. Over time, our chiropractors and massage therapists can also address the physical and mental aftereffects that chronic pain has caused.
Chiropractic Care for Chronic Pain
Chiropractic care is a combination of safe, gentle, and nonsurgical therapies that promote the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Our chiropractors focus on addressing underlying misalignments in the spine and restoring balance between different systems in the body to improve overall wellness and quality of life. We may use chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, spinal and postural correction, therapeutic exercises, and physiotherapy to provide relief from chronic pain.
Therapeutic Massage for Chronic Pain
Therapeutic massage promotes muscle relaxation and improves blood circulation. This can ease pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Massage triggers the release of endorphins, which are hormones that relieve pain naturally. It also stimulates nerve receptors that block pain signals to the brain. Over time, massage can improve mobility and range of motion and make it easier to undergo other therapies like physiotherapy or therapeutic exercise. When you get a massage before chiropractic treatment, your body may be more receptive to treatment and the results may last longer. When you get a massage after chiropractic treatment, you may be able to prevent stiffness or soreness.
