Massage therapy can work wonders just on its own. But sometimes there’s a deeper routed problem than just muscle tension and stress, sometimes the issue lies within the musculoskeletal system. The musculoskeletal system gives humans the ability to move using the skeletal and muscular systems. It gives support and form to the body as well as movement using joints, tendons, and other connective tissues. Although massage therapy can help to relieve soreness in the affected areas of the musculoskeletal system, a chiropractic Adjustment is a great option for more permanent relief.
After lots of moving or heavy lifting, many people may begin to feel stress and tension in areas they haven’t had pain before. Sometimes it can be even one small movement in the wrong direction and the entire body can be thrown off balance. A chiropractor will access the bodies’ pain and where the real issue is throughout the body, because sometimes where the pain is felt isn’t where the problem is. Most of the time, chiropractors will focus on realigning the spine and work on from there. Realigning the spine provides many benefits, including reducing back and neck pain as well as improving posture. Chiropractic adjustments are recommended regularly even when no pain exists as a way of prevention from future back and spine issues.
Although therapeutic bodywork and chiropractic adjustments are both therapeutic ways of healing the body, both are very different. Both treatments and chiropractic adjustments must be practiced regularly to achieve the maximum benefits. Compliment a massage therapy session with a chiropractic spinal adjustment to achieve maximum results.
Chiropractic is the only healing profession in the world that recognizes that your body has the ability to function at its optimum level, as long as there is no interference to the master control system known as the nervous system. Chiropractors examine the spine for any areas that are restricted and may be causing interference in the proper function of the nervous system.
For many, chiropractic may seem too expensive. In the same way that the Happy Head has made massage therapy affordable, they’ve done the same with chiropractic care. A chiropractic adjustment at Happy Head Massage is only $29 with any massage purchase. The chiropractors have at least 10 years of experience and are some of the best in their field.

Why Massage Helps Neck Pain and Stiffness
When muscles in the neck and upper back become tight, they can restrict blood flow and compress nerves, leading to pain and limited range of motion. Professional massage therapy targets these problem areas by increasing circulation and releasing tension in the soft tissues. According to the American Massage Therapy Association, regular sessions can significantly reduce chronic neck pain and improve flexibility over time.
