Massage Therapy at
Linford Chiropractic

Massage therapy is the manipulation of soft tissues of the body. The purpose is to normalize the tissues with manual techniques that include applying pressure, holding, and causing movements of the body. Massage increases the circulation of blood and the flow of lymph. This reduces muscular tension and affects the nervous system through stimulation and relaxation causing the tissue to heal. Our therapists offer the highest quality of care to our clients and care about all aspects of their treatment.

We customize each session to meet your specific needs by incorporating a variety of assessment and treatment techniques that are best suited to you as an individual.

Therapeutic Massage

This massage focuses on manipulation of superficial and deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue using various techniques to enhance function, aid in the healing process, decrease muscle reflex activity, inhibit motor-neuron excitability and promote relaxation and well-being.

Relaxation

This massage will encourage better digestion, improve circulation, calming the nervous system and moving fluid through your lymphatic nervous system to promote detoxification. Relaxation massage shortens recovery time from muscular strain by flushing the tissue of lactic acid, uric acid and other metabolic wastes.
