At Simple Truth Chiropractic, our chiropractors are proud to have gained the trust of our patients by delivering excellence in chiropractic care for many years. We focus on the underlying causes of health issues instead of merely treating the symptoms or masking the pain with medication. Massage therapy is one of the tools we use to provide effective pain relief in Grand Rapids MI and Lake Odessa MI and encourage recovery after receiving an injury. We offer different types of massage therapy based on what is best suited to meet your needs.
Massage Therapy at Simple Truth Chiropractic
Our team is highly skilled in massage therapy. We offer a full range of massage therapy services which includes the following:
Swedish Massage
This is the most common type of massage therapy. It involves gentle strokes focusing on the top-most layers of muscles. This type of massage is ideal to relax the muscles and reduce tension. It can also be highly beneficial for mental health issues such as anxiety and chronic stress. It can help boost your mood and energy levels.
Deep Tissue Massage
In deep tissue massage, our therapist will use slightly more pressure than a Swedish massage. We will use our hands to provide pressure to the deepest layers of the muscles. Some of the benefits of deep tissue massage include lower blood pressure and heart rate, reduced symptoms of arthritis, faster rehabilitation for injuries, increased flexibility, and more.
Sports Massage
A sports massage focuses on specific soft tissues that are used in sports. Sports massage can be part of a pre-performance, post-performance, or rehabilitation program. Whether you are an elite athlete or play sports as a hobby, a sports massage can be extremely helpful in improving your muscle and joint flexibility.
Prenatal Massage
In prenatal massage, our therapist will use a mix of gentle and deep pressure on the problematic regions. Prenatal massage is safe and provides you with relief from back pain, improved circulation, reduced muscle tension, headache relief, and better sleep.
cupping massage
Cupping therapy is a part of Chinese Medicine and has been for over 2,500 years along with herbology and Acupuncture. Cupping can be likened to a deep tissue massage but the practitioner applies heat in a cup which is then placed in most cases on the back. A vacuum effect is generated by the heat and this draws the skin up into the cup.
