How Massage Complements Chiropractic Care

Hi! My name is Taylor Bogacz and I’m the Licensed Massage Therapist at Lifestyle Chiropractic and Wellness. I work alongside Dr. Hoffman as well as treat my own clientele.

Massage does amazing things for the body and mind. Not only can it help relax you, but it can also improve your quality of life in many different ways. Massage therapy helps to reduce muscle tension, increase circulation, increase mobility, relieve stress, and much more.

By incorporating massage with chiropractic work, you are taking your healthcare a giant step farther. An important fact to remember is that all systems of the body work together. The body is able to heal itself thanks to this natural systemic integration.

Muscles are attached to the bones/joints, and tension or issues in the muscles can affect the alignment of the connected bones and joints. Massage releases the tension in the muscles, allowing the bones to be realigned without restrictions from the muscles. Not only does massage make chiropractic adjustments easier, but they help the realignment hold its proper place more easily, comfortably, and longer!

Massage also helps improve circulation, whereas chiropractic adjustments relieve pressure on the nerves. This combination of treatments allows the body to heal itself quickly and effectively.

Lastly, for individuals recovering from an injury or who are looking to increase athletic or exercise performance, massage can work wonders on range of motion. I work to release muscular adhesions that shorten muscles, ligaments and other soft tissues, which in turn helps to restore healthy range of motion. Without addressing range of motion, patients can re-injure themselves or perhaps not return to a higher quality of life.

I offer 30, 60 and 80-minute massages. I also am able to perform prenatal massage, deep tissue / sports massage and hot stone therapy using Himalayan salt stones. View our Massage page for prices and more information. I look forward to meeting you!
