PRINCIPLES OF CHIROPRACTIC

Chiropractic treatments are tailored to address and cure neuromusculoskeletal disorders and focus on realigning misplaced spinal vertebrae to restore optimal nervous system function. Pinched nerves, strained lower back muscles, neck discomfort, and sciatica are all relieved by spinal adjustments and manipulations without the need for surgery or unnecessary prescription prescriptions. Dr. King’s spinal adjustments also decompress the spine, improving blood flow throughout the body and facilitating the exchange of nutrients at wounded locations. Chiropractic therapy sessions that include an adjustment and manipulation often last less than an hour. Many patients report positive outcomes within 24 hours after treatment.

MASSAGE THERAPY FUNDAMENTALS

Massage treatment, like chiropractic medicine, treats pain holistically by improving circulation, relieving the discomfort of stiff, strained muscles, and stimulating the release of endorphins into the bloodstream. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland create endorphins, which are pain-relieving chemicals. Exercising boosts endorphin production, which helps to alleviate muscle discomfort and weariness. Your muscles, tendons, and ligaments are fooled into believing you’re exercising when you get massage therapy. A large rise of endorphins occurs as a result of this. Following a therapeutic massage session with Dr. King, patients report feeling incredibly relaxed, more flexible, and tranquil.

WOULD YOU CHOOSE CHIROPRACTIC OR MASSAGE THERAPY IF YOU WERE IN PAIN?

Chiropractic treatments often focus on realigning the spine and neck vertebrae to relieve back, neck, and headache pain, but they can also include therapeutic massage techniques including deep tissue, sports, and myofascial massage. Massage therapy stimulates cell metabolism and promotes the creation of new cells in inflammatory areas by manually “working out” muscles and ligaments. Chiropractic treatments, on the other hand, are aimed to relieve nerve pressure caused by misplaced vertebrae squeezing and aggravating spinal nerves.

Because your muscles and skeleton have such a strong, symbiotic link, the answer to this question is simple–choose both! Massage therapy, in addition to chiropractic treatments, is a terrific approach to effectively relieve a wide range of bone, joint, and muscle disorders while also contributing to your general health and well-being.
