How A Kent WA Chiropractor Can Help You Alleviate Back Pain

By Kurt Saniel


Most individuals in the U. S. A have backache at times. A Kent WA chiropractor can perform massage to alleviate some conditions such as back pain. Massage therapy is meant to meet the needs of all patients.

Massage and muscular therapies target affected areas to provide relief from musculoskeletal problems. The benefits of massage are many: reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, reducing muscle pain and spasms. Others include improving circulation and range of motion.

Massage has been used since the ancient days. Since then, it has become highly specialized and is used all over the world. The kind of technique utilized depends on the injury and condition of a patient.

There is evidence showing that massage is beneficial. Even though the evidence is mostly anectodal, a 2007 study that was published in the fact based Complementary and Alternative Medicine reviewed research carried out in the past and concluded that massage is effective in eliminating pain in the lower back. In 2010, a study was carried out in the University of California showing that massage causes the production of low levels of the hormones, which are produced due to stress and inflammation.

Massage is especially beneficial for people with chronic pain, which is defined as pain that is constant or recurrent, lasting three months or more. Many back pain sufferers experience this type of ongoing discomfort. The Kent chiropractor frequently incorporates massage in conjunction with spinal adjustments. If patients have more complex conditions requiring massage techniques that lie outside the realm of chiropractic, they can be referred to another holistic professional who works in collaboration with the chiropractor to provide optimal therapeutic care.

Typically, massage is performed using the hands, but other devices can also be used to expedite healing. Heat therapy with a warm bath in a bathtub involves the use of water jets that offer a massage experience. Another technique is fluidotherapy. Despite its name, this is a dry technique, which circulates particles of cellulose over the skin.

Similarly, taking a cold bath in a tub or ice massage provides similar advantages as the strategies above while minimizing biochemical reactions and internal bleeding that cause inflammation. When cold therapy is performed, there is a reduced chance of the cells found in injured tissues will die as a result of lacking oxygen. Kent chiropractors use various massage techniques to stimulate recovery.
