What is Medical Massage?
Simply put, Medical Massage Therapy is the focused use of advanced massage techniques to treat a specific condition and achieve a specific outcome. In some cases, the condition treated is first diagnosed by the patient’s physician. In other cases, the medical massage therapist simply treats the patient based on the patient’s subjective description of his symptoms and following a thorough assessment of the patient’s muscles, posture, etc.
Techniques used during a Cary medical massage often include neuromuscular therapy, myofascial release, and lymphatic drainage massage among many others; however, they can also include more common techniques such as relaxation massage. The main difference between a medical massage and a regular massage is that it is performed by therapists with advanced training. The treatment is structured to obtain a specific outcome.
At Preston Chiropractic and Acupuncture, we understand the importance of keeping your health at the forefront. This is why we utilize medical massage to help you achieve the highest level of health possible.
Massages Really Work?
At the very least, a professional massage on a particular area of the body is going to increase blood flow to the area and promote faster healing and regeneration. When done right it can also gradually increase your flexibility and strength. These deep muscle knots that you haven’t been able to get rid of for years and that keeps you from moving quite as well as you did before can be worked out and get you feeling normal again. We work with you and your body to learn what’s going to help you solve your problems and we execute our plan carefully.
