Whether you are experiencing chronic pain from a lingering ailment or acute pain from a recent injury, our Massage Therapists at Max Physiotherapy are dedicated to helping you live a pain-free life.
Massage therapy uses various techniques to relax muscles and encourage healing in soft tissue, thereby reducing pain and muscle tension. Massage therapy can also provide overall stress reduction and relaxation. The particular massage therapy technique used depends on your particular situation, and can include Relaxation Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Therapeutic Massage, Prenatal Massage, and Hot Stone Massage. Our Max Physiotherapy Massage Therapists will discuss with you what massage technique best suits your needs and expectations.
While we understand that pain medication may sometimes be required, alternatives to pain medication do exist. Massage therapy can help relieve pain without having to rely on medication. Massage therapy has been shown to be highly successful in treating a wide range of conditions.
While there seems to be universal agreement that a massage “feels good,” it also offers many specific benefits. The therapeutic use of massage affects all systems of the body, most particularly circulatory, muscular, facial, and nervous systems. Chronic muscle tension, stress, and injury often create bands of painful, rigid tissue called adhesions in muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Muscle adhesions impact circulation, causing pain, limited mobility, and inflammation. Massage therapy is also effective in the control of pain, both chronic and acute, in stress reduction, and in creating a sense of relaxation and well-being. It can be used on its own, or as a complement to any one of the many wellness services offered at Max Physiotherapy. Aside from the benefits of massage for physical conditions, patients at Max physiotherapy enjoy massage simply because of its ability to soothe and relieve stress.
Massage therapy is a wonderful treatment on its own or as a complement to any one of the many wellness services offered at Max Physiotherapy.
