Therapeutic Massage: Our Focus
The perfect complement to chiropractic care is undoubtedly therapeutic massage. Unlike massages primarily designed for relaxation, therapeutic massage is geared towards therapy, emphasizing the restoration of the body’s functionality. This type of massage delves deep into the fascia, working on a cellular level to address specific issues in the musculoskeletal system.
In a 60-minute session, patients benefit from focused work on a particular area while still enjoying the overall relaxation that comes with the treatment. For those seeking more comprehensive attention, a 90-minute session allows massage therapists to concentrate on 2 or 3 interconnected areas related to the patient’s pain points or injuries, aiding in the establishment of new and healthier musculoskeletal patterns.
The synergy between chiropractic care and therapeutic massage provides a comprehensive approach to physical well-being, addressing both structural alignment and muscular health.

What can I expect in a typical massage appointment?
As a massage patient you will spend 3-5 minute discussing with the therapist where you would like to focus on your body, and how your body is feeling. There will then be around 55 minute (for a 60-min massage) of dedicated hands-on massage time in your private room. After the massage is over and you have gotten dressed in private, you will be offered water and to give any feedback you would like to be added to your massage notes for next time. You will then be able to check out with our reception and schedule any session you may want to for the future!
