I Need a Massage!

Exercise and fitness image.

You went to the gym, and now every muscle in your body hurts and you’re just aching to get a massage, but it seems like such an extravagance in terms of money and time. Yet, many different activities make up a good wellness routine and massage is just one of those elements in addition to nutrition, exercise and chiropractic care. So there's no need to feel guilty when you call to schedule that massage!

Physical, mental and emotional health benefits of massage:

  • Massage improves the circulation of oxygen-carrying blood to the extremities and helps eliminate wastes from the body

  • Massage relaxes you, relieves stress and anxiety, and supports feelings of general well-being

  • Massage works with your chiropractic care to retrain muscles that support your spine

  • Massage helps in managing the pain associated with certain physical conditions, such as arthritis and sciatica

  • Massage serves to either stimulate or relax the nervous system, depending on the type of massage being administered

Just keep in mind that a massage is not a substitute for chiropractic care! Although the two may work in conjunction with one another, massage provides “feel good” therapy while chiropractic adjustments keep your nervous system functioning properly. That’s far more important than a temporary “feel good” luxury!

Dr. Nate Asks some important questions of interest to Geneva residents - Chiropractor Geneva Dr. Nate Asks...

Why do so many drugs require a prescription?
Because they can be dangerous? I chose a chiropractic career specifically because it avoids artificial means of pain relief. Our Geneva chiropractic practice attracts health-conscious families that prefer a safe and natural solution. Ready to get started? Call our office today.
What happens if you stop chiropractic care when you feel better?
Many Geneva folks recognize that this predisposes you to a relapse. Chiropractors know that muscles and ligaments supporting the spine don't fully heal until after symptoms subside.
