Benefits of Massage

The pains of age, the throbbing from your overstressed muscles, the sheer need to relax -- all cry out for therapeutic hands to start their work. Once the session gets underway, the problems of the world fade into an oblivious 60 minutes of relief.
 
But what if that hour of massage did more for you than just take the pressures of the day away? What if that massage helped you combat cancer? What if bodywork helped you recover from a strained hamstring in half the time? What if your sleep, digestion and mood all improved with massage and bodywork? What if these weren't just "what ifs"?

Evidence is showing that the more massage you can allow yourself, the better you'll feel. Here's why.

Massage as a healing tool has been around for thousands of years in many cultures. Touching is a natural human reaction to pain and stress, and for conveying compassion and support. Think of the last time you bumped your head or had a sore calf. What did you do? Rubbed it, right? The same was true of our earliest ancestors. Healers throughout time and throughout the world have instinctually and independently developed a wide range of therapeutic techniques using touch. Many are still in use today, and with good reason. We now have scientific proof of the benefits of massage - benefits ranging from treating chronic diseases and injuries to alleviating the growing tensions of our modern lifestyles. Having a massage does more than just relax your body and mind - there are specific physiological and psychological changes which occur, even more so when massage is utilized as a preventative, frequent therapy and not simply mere luxury. Massage not only feels good, but it can treat what ails you.

It can all begin today by calling us at 281-758-2800 or visiting our website at www.backandbodycypress.com.

CHIROPRACTIC MISCONCEPTIONS- #2

It seems like once you start going to a chiropractor you have to go forever!

In actuality, many patients CHOOSE to receive chiropractic throughout their lives because they see the improvements in their lifestyle and health. Let's face it, our society is geared towards fast food, fast cars, and immediate gratification. It is no wonder that people also want fast food healthcare. Let's give you another analogy that may help. Diabetics and those with allergies sometimes need medication every day or every week of their life!!! In some cases patients with significant structural problems need structural support for long periods of time and perhaps the rest of their life. While these types of problems are not an everyday occurrence in my office, they do happen. Most people who come to my office for care for longer periods of time simply like the way they feel and choose to utilize chiropractic treatment more thoroughly than others.
