Understanding massage therapy

What is massage therapy?

Massage therapy means pressing, rubbing, and moving the muscles and other soft tissues of your body.1 People use it to ease tension, feel better, and recover from everyday strain.

In Wisconsin, massage therapists must hold a state license.3 Licenses are overseen by the Massage Therapy and Bodywork Therapy Affiliated Credentialing Board, part of the Department of Safety and Professional Services.2

At Chiropractic Company, massage therapy is offered at two clinics: Hales Corners and Oconomowoc. Your therapist listens first, then shapes each session around how you feel.

Massage and chiropractic care

How massage fits with chiropractic care

Chiropractic care focuses on how your spine and joints move. Massage focuses on the muscles around them. Some people like to use both.

For example, a massage can ease tight muscles, while your chiropractor works on stiff joints and gives you exercises. Your chiropractor can tell you whether massage might fit your plan.

Chiropractic care is available at all 20+ clinics, including Hales Corners and Oconomowoc. You choose your care.

Not a substitute for an exam

Massage shouldn’t replace a visit to a doctor for new or worsening pain.1 If you have numbness, weakness, or pain after an injury, start with an exam. Learn about chiropractic care.

Research

What research says about massage therapy

For low back pain

Research on massage for low back pain has found only weak evidence that it helps.1 Physician guidelines list massage as one natural, drug-free option for new low back pain.4

For neck and shoulder pain

Massage may help neck or shoulder pain, but the benefits may last only a short time.1

Safety

The risk of harm from massage appears to be low. Serious problems are rare.1 Tell your therapist about any health conditions, injuries, or pregnancy before your session.

We’re honest about the evidence. If you enjoy massage, it can be one part of a plan that keeps you active.
