The Benefits of Massage Therapy

To ensure a complete and healthy recovery, Dr. Wooten provides direction to each therapeutic massage therapist so that massage therapy done in conjunction with spinal adjustments will have the greatest effect. Some of the benefits massage therapy has to offer include:

• Reduces chronic pain in the lower back, neck, and other parts of the body

• Speeds up recovery time and promotes healing

Besides these benefits, there are many conditions that massage therapy can help to effectively treat.
