Massage and Adjustments
Muscle Therapy is often used in preparation for an adjustment. Massage relieves muscle tension and warms up the soft tissues in the area, making joint more pliable and more easily adjusted. Many chiropractors themselves (or an assistant) prepare an area with local massage.
Medical Massage (1/2 to 1 hour or longer) can also be good preparation for an adjustment. In addition to preparing the immediate area of concern, it helps you relax overall and become more receptive to other hands-on treatment. More time with the massage practitioner allows for more time to focus in specific muscle groups.
Some find massage after an adjustment beneficial for further relaxation. With regular therapeutic massage, chiropractic adjustments may last longer.

How often should I get a massage?
Everyone is different in their healing process. A regular program of massage therapy can range from twice per week to once every four to six weeks, depending on the individuals’ treatment goals. High frequency in the beginning is common, then eventually stretching visits out to a consistent maintenance schedule is beneficial. Your time on the table may vary as well, some people find that 40 minutes every two months is sufficient while others need to maintain an hour visit every two weeks. Treatment duration and frequency also depends on the activity level of each individual.
