In-Depth
What You Need to Know
Soft tissue therapy in chiropractic care encompasses techniques such as myofascial release, trigger point therapy, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, and therapeutic massage. These methods target adhesions, scar tissue, and muscle tension that can contribute to pain and limit range of motion. Chiropractors often perform soft tissue therapy before or after spinal adjustments to relax surrounding muscles and enhance the effectiveness of the overall treatment. Patients with conditions like chronic muscle tightness, sports injuries, repetitive strain injuries, and fibromyalgia commonly benefit from soft tissue work. Regular soft tissue therapy can improve circulation, accelerate healing, and help prevent future injuries.
