About Massage Therapy

Professional Therapeutic Massage

Therapeutic massage is a hands-on treatment that manipulates the soft tissues of the body—muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia—to reduce pain, improve circulation, and promote relaxation and healing.

Our licensed massage therapists use various techniques including Swedish massage, deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release to address your specific needs. We work closely with Dr. Kelch to ensure your massage therapy complements your chiropractic treatment plan.

At Absolute Wellness, massage isn't just relaxation—it's an integral part of your healing process, helping you achieve faster, longer-lasting results from your chiropractic care.

The Process

How Massage Therapy Works

Our licensed massage therapists use proven techniques to promote healing and pain relief.

1

Muscle Relaxation

Massage techniques relax tight, contracted muscles, releasing tension and reducing pain. This allows your body to move more freely and function normally.

2

Improved Circulation

Massage increases blood flow to injured tissues, delivering oxygen and nutrients needed for healing while flushing out metabolic waste products.

3

Trigger Point Release

We target specific trigger points—hyperirritable spots in tight muscles—using sustained pressure to release knots and restore normal muscle function.

4

Enhanced Adjustments

Relaxed muscles allow chiropractic adjustments to work better and last longer. We often perform massage before adjustments for optimal results.
