Massage therapy can be effective for a variety of conditions, such as back pain, arthritis, and carpal tunnel syndrome. In addition to helping the body relax, it can reduce muscle tension and inflammation. Our chiropractor utilizes various techniques, such as trigger point therapy and vibratory massage, to help you feel your best. We may also sometimes combine massage therapy and chiropractic adjustments, as it can speed up the healing process.
Trigger point therapy is a specialized type of massage therapy that targets your trigger points -- the locations of the origin of your pain. For instance, you may have lower back pain as a result of an issue with your legs. Therefore, the massage focuses on your legs. Dr. Trowbridge massages the center around your triggers point to ease the pressure. The entire concept of trigger point therapy revolves around the fact that waste products build around your nerve clusters and stimulate nerve pain and other nerve-related symptoms. Sometimes, these symptoms spread beyond the initial site of the pain because the waste can cause bands or nodules that press on your soft tissue. The massage breaks up the clusters to ease your symptoms.

Myofascial release offers a drug-free, non-invasive technique for relaxing these areas of tightness. In this form of massage, your practitioner feels for knots or hard spots that need breaking up. Targeted manipulation of these areas can force the tissue to unclench, freeing your body to work as it should and easing referred pain symptoms.
Chiropractic care and myofascial release work hand in hand to provide lasting relief. Dr. Tara Trowbridge makes adjustments and corrects any alignment problems that make you more vulnerable to myofascial tightness and pain. Between chiropractic adjustment sessions, ongoing myofascial release sessions can keep your tissues from tightening up again.This incremental approach not only helps you maintain optimal comfort and mobility; it also helps to preserve the corrections made by Dr. Trowbridge, allowing you to get the greatest possible benefit from your adjustments. We can even show you how to self-administer simple kinds of myofascial release using a foam roller or other tools to help you keep your tissues limber.es limber. 

Chiropractic Muscle Stimulation or E-Stim is a specialized medical treatment that uses electric currents to induce muscle contraction. It is non-invasive and clients may lay down while undergoing the therapy. Patients do not experience pain from the therapy. In fact, many find a session an enjoyable experience. 

We also offer stretching and strengthening exercises that may be beneficial if you’ve experienced an auto accident injury or a fall. The exercises are designed to make your body stronger, increase your range of motion, and improve your flexibility. We will teach you the movements in the office and you can continue performing them at home between appointments to help your body heal.
