Massage Therapy | Mission St
While Chiropractic focuses on joints and mobility, Massage focuses on the soft tissues of the body and movement patterns. Doctor Smith uses a wide variety of massage techniques based on the patient’s symptoms, body type, and tolerance to pressure.
Massage can help to reduce muscle tightness, break-up scar tissue, reduce pain and inflammation, improve circulation, and improve one’s overall state of health. We lean toward the more intense massage modalities which explore deep muscle fibers and have more of a therapeutic effect.
