Healing Beyond the Spine: How Massage Therapy Supports Injury Recovery

At Stinson Chiropractic Center, we believe recovery is most effective when the body is treated as a whole — not just the injury. That’s why we often incorporate massage therapy as part of our comprehensive injury recovery and rehabilitation plans.
Whether you're recovering from a sports injury, car accident, or chronic strain, massage therapy offers powerful, science-backed benefits that complement chiropractic care and speed up healing.
Key Benefits of Massage in Injury Recovery:
Reduces Muscle Tension & Spasms
Massage helps relieve tightness and restrictions in muscles surrounding the injury, improving range of motion and decreasing discomfort.
Boosts Circulation for Faster Healing
Increased blood flow helps deliver nutrients and oxygen to damaged tissues, accelerating the body’s natural healing process.
Breaks Down Scar Tissue & Adhesions
Over time, massage can help remodel scar tissue and improve flexibility, reducing long-term pain and dysfunction.
Pain Management Without Medication
Massage stimulates the release of endorphins — the body’s natural pain relievers — offering non-invasive relief and relaxation.
Improves Mobility & Prevents Reinjury
Regular therapeutic massage can help restore full function and prevent imbalances that lead to future injury.
Whether you're dealing with a recent injury or lingering discomfort from an old one, massage therapy combined with chiropractic care can make a major difference in your recovery journey.
