What is Chiropractic Massage?

Chiropractic massage is a treatment that targets the body's soft tissues. Expertly trained massage therapists and chiropractors utilize techniques such as rubbing, kneading, or stroking to relax muscles, eliminate knots, and alleviate pain. A massage serves as a holistic tool for addressing lower back pain, neck pain, fibromyalgia, insomnia, joint pain, anxiety, and other conditions. By relaxing muscles, massage improves circulation, allowing the immune system to function more efficiently.
