Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy is a manual therapy that is used to focus on or target musculoskeletal pain and disability. This therapy includes a series of kneading, joint mobilization, joint manipulation, and manipulation of muscle tissue done with hands in place of a device or machine. Manual therapy can be helpful for many individuals that suffer from certain musculoskeletal conditions, lack range of motion, and lack adequate mobility and is aimed at providing relief to tense back muscles and restricted joints. Our doctors and providers frequently prescribe massage therapy as part of your treatment plan to help with painful, tight muscles. The therapy helps relax muscles and heal the body by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation to affected areas. Massage is considered a supportive and complementary treatment to the corrective care that is provided in our Westerville office.
