Sports Massage

While chiropractic care focuses on joints and movement patterns, massage focuses on the soft tissues of the body like muscles and ligaments. Massage paired with regular chiropractic adjustments and manipulations have proven to be one of the most effective methods for relieving chronic pain in athletes.

 

Massage therapy offers a treatment approach which actually relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. At Robinson Family Chiropractic, we provide specific massage and muscular therapy that is tailored to meet the patient's unique pain condition or injury. Massage has been known to relieve muscle pain and spasms, increase a patient's range of motion, while also aiding in a patient's recovery. The benefits of massage therapy include:

• Increased blood circulation
• Reduction in swelling
• Relaxation of muscles

We offer a pre-event sports massage that involves a stimulating Swedish massage that targets the muscles you will use in your upcoming event. We also offer post-event, restorative and rehabilitative massages that are designed to help your body recover quicker. Call our office today for more information! 

Interferential Electro-Therapy

Most people will develop a muscle strain or spasm at some point in their lifetime. Before you reach for medication to treat sprains, strains and muscle spasms, consider the alternatives. Interferential electro-therapy can be an effective way to treat soft tissue injuries and sprains.

Dr. Richard Robinson and our team at Robinson Family Chiropractic are experienced at treating injuries with interferential electro-therapy and will be happy to answer your questions. Interferential electro-therapy works by applying a low frequency electrical signal to stimulate the muscle and reduce pain.

Interferential electro-therapy works in a few different ways. As it stimulates the muscle, it can reduce swelling and increase blood flow to the area. In addition, interferential electro-therapy can also stimulate the production and release of endorphins, which are the body’s natural pain relievers.

At Robinson Family Chiropractic, we offer a wide variety of chiropractic services including cryotherapy and electrical muscle stimulation. We are experienced in treating sports related injuries, conditions due to car accidents and job related injuries. We are happy to provide you with a free consultation.
