Shoulder pain can limit your ability to do your job or spend quality time with your family. This type of pain can result from a neck injury, a work- or sport-related accident, or even a car accident. It may also stem from a health condition like arthritis or fibromyalgia. Winter Haven Wellness Center in Winter Haven, FL can help address shoulder pain with multiple treatment options.

Treatment Options That Address Shoulder Pain

Deep tissue massage is one of the most effective ways to deal with shoulder pain. Massage can be included in a treatment plan with other forms of therapy and supports the benefits of each one. Spinal decompression and physical therapy will both start the healing process. Deep tissue massage works to speed it up.

The Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage

Many benefits accompany deep tissue massage. They include:

• Improved blood flow
• Manual muscle manipulation for hard to reach areas
• Increased flexibility
• Better range of motion
• Speeds up the healing process
• Stronger and more resilient after healing

When combined with other therapies, massage supports the healing process so that it goes much faster. It also works on the affected muscle groups when exercise is not an option. Because of its many benefits, chiropractors will often include massage therapy in the treatment plans they create for their patients. 

Combining Massage With Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care and massage therapy go hand in hand in providing quality care. A massage therapist works with your chiropractor to restore balance to both the skeletal and connective tissues, as well as the soft tissues of the body. The muscles need to be strengthened to better hold the skeletal structure in its natural position once a chiropractic adjustment has been made.
