Massage in Madison
Massage therapy at Back Care Plus offers more than just relaxation; it’s a powerful tool for healing and maintaining optimal health. Our skilled therapists use therapeutic techniques that complement chiropractic adjustments, helping to lengthen shortened muscles, balance posture, and speed recovery. This hands-on method increases circulation to damaged tissues, resulting in faster healing and reduced pain for our patients.
How Massage Enhances Chiropractic Care
When muscles remain tight and shortened on one side of your body, they can pull your spine out of alignment, undoing the benefits of your adjustments. Our therapeutic manipulation balances these muscle groups, allowing your adjustments to hold longer and go deeper into the area that’s being worked on. It also increases blood flow, bringing essential nutrients to injured areas while removing inflammatory substances that cause pain and slow healing.
Customized Plans to Meet Your Needs
We offer different types of massage based on your specific health goals and preferences:
- Therapeutic deep tissue: for chronic muscle tension and injuries
- Swedish relaxation: for stress reduction and general wellness
- Sports: for athletes preparing for or recovering from events
- Targeted techniques: for specific conditions like sciatica or headaches
Providing a Range of Benefits
Regular sessions provide numerous benefits that extend well beyond simple pain management. Patients report improved range of motion, making daily activities easier and more comfortable. Many experience reduced anxiety and better sleep quality after even a single session.
Athletes find their performance improves with regular care, while those with desk jobs notice better posture and fewer tension headaches. Massage can also help with lymphatic drainage for patients with edema or swelling.
What to Expect During and After Your Session
Most patients receive massage therapy once a month for maintenance; however, those undergoing active treatment may benefit from weekly sessions. Your first appointment will include a brief assessment of your needs and goals, followed by a session in a comfortable, private room.
After your massage, we recommend drinking plenty of water to help flush the released lactic acid from your system. Some patients experience mild soreness for a day or two after deep tissue work, which is normal and typically resolves quickly.
