Massage Therapy Benefits
Everyone loves massages and what better way to increase the benefits of chiropractic care than incorporating massage into your routine. Muscle attaches to bone by the muscle tendon. If your joints are out of alignment, the muscle is being "pulled" along with it. By relaxing and decreasing tension in the muscle, you can feel the benefits of your adjustment longer.
