Therapeutic Massage Services

We employ massage and other natural, non-invasive healing techniques at Churn Creek Chiropractic because they complement and enhance the benefits of spinal adjustment. Loose, relaxed muscles can often result in more efficient adjustment sessions, helping you get the most out of your chiropractic treatment.

If you’re injured, your tissues need all the help they can get to feel better and recover fully. Light techniques, like Swedish massage, boost blood flow to the injured area. This not only feeds the injury site with much-needed nutrients for faster healing, but it also relieves inflammation and swelling to ease discomfort.

Our doctors and massage therapists work together to provide a comprehensive, well-rounded strategy for improving your health.

Deep tissue massage and trigger point therapy can also relieve muscle knots associated with fibromyalgia and other conditions. Enhanced blood flow can also reduce degenerative joint pain.

Sports massage, meanwhile, can help you get over a sports injury more efficiently. It can also loosen up your muscles and connective tissues for optimal athletic performance.
