The Perfect Complement to Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic adjustments address joint function while massage therapy focuses on muscle issues—together, they create a powerful healing combination. When muscles are relaxed and properly functioning, adjustments hold longer and work more effectively. Our doctors and massage therapists work as a coordinated team, communicating about your condition to ensure treatments reinforce each other. This integrated approach helps reduce pain and improve function more quickly than either treatment alone.

Flexible Treatment Options

Massage therapy can be scheduled as a standalone service or combined with chiropractic treatments for comprehensive care. Many patients find that receiving massage therapy before their adjustment enhances the effectiveness of chiropractic care. Sessions are available in various durations to accommodate your needs and schedule. For workers’ compensation cases, massage therapy can be a covered service is the doctor deems it necessary, while other massage services are offered at reasonable cash rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is therapeutic massage different from spa massage?

While both can feel wonderful, therapeutic massage at Frame Chiropractic and Acupuncture specifically targets underlying muscle issues and functional problems. Our therapists use advanced techniques to address pain, restricted movement, and chronic conditions rather than focusing solely on relaxation. Every stroke has a purpose—whether breaking down adhesions, releasing trigger points, or improving circulation to injured tissues. The result is not just temporary relief but measurable improvement in your condition.

How often should I receive therapeutic massage?

The optimal frequency depends on your specific condition and goals. For acute injuries or during intensive treatment phases, weekly sessions may be recommended. For ongoing maintenance and prevention, many patients benefit from bi-weekly or monthly appointments. Our therapists and doctors will work together to recommend the ideal schedule based on your progress and response to treatment. Unlike spa services that are occasional indulgences, therapeutic massage works best when integrated into a consistent care plan.

What should I expect during my first massage therapy appointment?

Your initial session includes a thorough consultation where your therapist will discuss your health history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. This information allows them to customize your therapy for maximum effectiveness. You’ll receive clear instructions about the process, appropriate draping for comfort and privacy, and communication guidelines to ensure pressure and technique meet your needs. Throughout your session, your therapist will focus on problem areas while maintaining a whole-body approach to addressing compensatory patterns and related tension.

How do Karen and Maria’s approaches to massage therapy differ?

Both Karen and Maria are highly skilled in therapeutic techniques, but each brings unique strengths to their practice. Karen’s years with our team have given her exceptional insight into integrating massage with chiropractic care, while Maria brings additional expertise in specialized modalities. During your consultation, we can help match you with the therapist whose approach best addresses your specific needs. Many patients develop a preference based on technique, communication style, or scheduling availability—all while receiving our consistently high standard of therapeutic care.
