Massage Therapy Lake Worth

Auto Accident Injuries, Headaches, Whiplash, Sciatica

Massage therapy has been used as a noninvasive form of treatment for many different conditions and diseases for thousands of years. The ancient Chinese, Hindu, Persian and Egyptian cultures all used this form of physical therapy to help direct the energy flow of the body in a way that will allow the body to heal itself.

Today, massage therapy is still a growing industry, and you can get massages anywhere from high-end spas to personal masseuses who will bring their table and oils to your home for a private massage. When used in tandem with other traditional therapies, however, the benefits of massages are manifold. Modern science has proved that the benefits of massage are not to be ignored and it is often recommended as a form of holistic and complementary therapy to other chiropractic methods.

Lake Worth Massage Therapy has Many Rehabilitative Benefits

Massage therapy from professionally licensed massage therapists and supervised by chiropractors can increase circulation, reduce swelling, relieve stress and pain, increase mobility and joint movement, temporarily lower blood pressure, relieve headaches, reduce tension and increase your body’s immune system. Massage therapy can be given to adults, the elderly, pregnant women and even infants.

Stress has been recognized by chiropractors and the medical community as a source of great harm to the human body. Massages can alleviate that stress thereby preventing mental or physical ailments. The massage therapist will help you reach a heightened state of relaxation, which allows your body to release harmful tension and your brain will release healing endorphins.

Our Lake Worth chiropractor, Dr. Jack Cacic, may recommend additional sessions of massage therapy in order to help your treatment and recovery. Dr. Cacic will discuss with the therapist which form of massage therapy would best suit your needs and then direct the therapist to target the problematic areas.

The most common forms of massage therapy are Swedish, sports therapy, Shiatsu and hot stone therapy, which utilizes heated stones as a source of heat for deep muscle penetration. There are many other forms of massages and many therapists specialize in at least some of the other more exotic forms. In general, however, your therapist will use kneading, stroking, tapping and circular motions on your back and body to manipulate the skin, muscles, joints and ligaments. Always communicate with your massage therapist if the pressure is too hard or too light as you want an effective yet pain-free experience. Optimal results include your being relaxed with reduced or eliminated pain.
