Chiropractic massage therapy is very effective in alleviating or reducing symptoms of numerous health issues. Chiropractic massge therapy was once known as a form of alternative medicine. But over the past few years, we have seen it evolve into a mainstream treatment for millions around the world. In fact, many insurance companies cover therapeutic massage treatments in their entirety. Here are 4 therapeutic benefits of chiropractic massage therapy:
Chiropractic Massage Therapy Improves circulation
Improved circulation is a benefit that accumulates. This is because regular massages stimulate better circulation, and better circulation means that more oxygen-rich blood is reaching damaged muscles and cells, healing them.The pressure on the correct areas also releases lactic acid which has built up, replacing it with fresh blood. This relieves cramping and soreness.
Lower your blood pressure
Studies have shown that regular massage therapy sessions reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. This turns into a chain effect which reduces cortisol levels. It also has been found to reduce instances of hostility, anxiety, depression, and stress. Lower blood pressure also reduces your risk of heart attack and stroke.
Relieve stress
Chiropractic massage reduces stress in many ways. One of the immediate ways is the pressure over specific areas of the body which reduces release of stress hormones. This reduction leads to an increase in energy and overall pain reduction, which can result in improved emotional balance and health.
