Massage Therapy Asheville

If sore muscles and muscular pain are affecting your daily life activities, then it is the right time to look for solutions. Long periods of muscular pain can damage joints and reduce the blood flow to muscles and surrounding nerves. Dr. Mark at Blue Ridge Chiropractic treats muscular tension as a clinical issue and won’t recommend that you go for a spa massage. Every session at our clinic is unique to our patient, and we aim to provide natural, long-lasting relief from pain.

For over 20 years, Dr. Mark has helped people across Asheville and nearby regions to get rid of muscle pain without medicines or surgery. With his high expertise and hands-on-treatment approach, he understands where and how your muscles have been stuck, and how this stiffness is impacting your posture.

How Can Our Massage Therapy in Asheville Help You?

Our massage therapy will not just make you feel better for an hour or two. Instead our carefully designed plan finds out what's wrong and then works on treating the root cause:

• Decreases tension at its source, removing the pressure around the muscles and nerves below it.
• Provides better blood circulation, which means better supply of oxygen and nutrients to the damaged tissues. In this way, massage therapy speeds up the healing process.
• Provides relaxation to a burnt-out nervous system, providing ease and better recovery during visits.
• Improves body flexibility, and patients find it easy again to bend and reach for something instead of feeling tense.

We don’t provide quick fixes that go away by morning. Rather than that, we focus on easing tension and improving your body’s flexibility. The aim is to give you long-lasting relief, and that is why this is not a spa massage.

What Conditions Can Massage Therapy Treat?

Muscle tension adds up to an already painful condition like an injury. This is the reason why massage therapy is helpful with more than one condition. Dr. Mark customizes each session to find what is right for your body. He will first see what the root cause is, whether the patient is suffering from an injury or has been dealing with the kind of pain that has been there for years.

Sometimes the patient feels pain only in one spot. But when we trace the root cause it usually goes back to the muscles that have been working overtime for too long

When Should You See a Massage Therapist in Asheville?

Your muscles require attention before they start to hurt. Tension increases quietly with time without you noticing it. So, the pain can get worse and can distort your posture in the long run. If you start to notice any of these signs, book an appointment with us:

• Tight neck, shoulders or back either recently or for too long.
• Headaches that start from the back of your neck.
• Poor sleep as a result of pain and muscle tension.
• Limited body movements such that you can perform only limited tasks.

If you catch up on these signs early, that means you can have a quick and better recovery.

Why Choose Dr. Mark for Massage Therapy?

Because he won’t treat you like another patient, and also won’t recommend massage therapy as a magical cure. He first carefully reads your symptoms and past medical history so his treatment approach is targeted and not general. His high expertise and special certification in Chiropractic Biophysics make his approach one of a kind. Rather than treating new symptoms every week, his approach is to understand why tension keeps returning in the first place, and addresses that intelligently.

How Does Massage Therapy Fit Into Your Recovery Plan?

Usually for general stiffness and soreness, massage therapy works really well on its own. But for more chronic conditions it works well when paired with other treatments available at Blue Ridge Chiropractic like “adjustments, posture correction, and injury chiropractic care.”
