Massage Therapy
Massage therapy involves many techniques designed to manipulate the soft tissues of the body. Massage therapists are trained to treat soft tissues including muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The purpose of massage therapy is to improve physical function and relieve pain.
Massage results in beneficial physiological changes including an increase in blood circulation and lymphatic fluid circulation. The increase in flow of these fluids is helpful to recovery from injury.
In the case of injury, a massage therapist may be able to break down scar tissue, stretch muscles, and reduce muscle spasms.
