The different pieces of our bodies work together to perform hundreds of functions daily. When one or more parts of our bodies become injured or are out of proper alignment, it causes the rest of the body to overcompensate, resulting in pain and inflammation in different muscle groups. Dr. Tyler Dishman and his team at Dishman Chiropractic and Wellness Center in In Celebration, FL love helping people become pain-free. One of the ways we do this is through massage therapy.
Comprehensive Chiropractic Includes Massage Therapy
Comprehensive chiropractic care includes more than spinal adjustments. Today, several treatment options are available to a chiropractor, including heat therapy, cold therapy, cold laser therapy, spinal decompression, mental and emotional improvement, nutritional counseling, and massage therapy. All aspects of your body play a part in your overall health and wellness. Once you visit our offices, we'll give you a thorough screening to look at your pain levels, your stress points, your lifestyle habits, exercise routines, what you do for work, and other things to help us determine the best course of action for your treatment. We may even take X-rays to produce the most accurate diagnosis possible.
Manual Therapy for Auto Accident Injuries
After you've sustained injuries from an auto accident, you'll find that your body hurts more than usual. You may have jarred muscles in more than one location in your neck, shoulders, back, hips, or knees. Manual therapy can help reduce your pain levels by relaxing these muscles and removing tension from the affected muscles and those around them, supporting the newly injured area. Treatments like myofascial release and trigger point therapy are combined with chiropractic care to reduce pain and improve the strength and functionality of the musculoskeletal system. Our chiropractor will determine when and how often you'll need manual therapy sessions.
Different Massage Therapy Techniques Used for Different Kinds of Pain
Massage therapy for pain relief will use many massage techniques. These techniques involve light, flowy, and light-pressured strokes to larger muscle groups. Our practitioner may also use elbows or forearms to push into certain parts of the muscle. Other techniques involve targeting specific pain points at places where muscles intersect near the bones. By applying the correct consistency and pressure at the right times, deep-rooted tension will leave the body in those areas, facilitating faster healing.
