Massage Therapy at Remarkable Care, P.A.

What is massage therapy?

Massage TherapyMassage Therapy is the hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body. Specifically the muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints.

The therapeutic effects of massage therapy improve health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous, and circulatory systems. Massage Therapy helps in the following ways:

Improves Circulation (it is estimated that blood passes three times more rapidly through muscles being massaged than muscles at rest)

  1. Increases removal of toxic lactic acid in your muscles

Dr. Ann Asks some important questions of interest to Rockwall residents - Chiropractor Rockwall Dr. Ann Asks...

Where do most Rockwall residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Rockwall newborn.
Why are frequent visits advised when starting chiropractic care?
Consistent visits at the beginning of your chiropractic care help create the momentum necessary to correct and retrain unhealthy spinal patterns. Later, Rockwall patients find that continued care on a less frequent visit schedule can help preserve their progress and avoid a relapse.
