What is Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy means many things to many people. In fact, a recently
published scholarly article identifies more than 80 different styles of massage,
many of which
have been developed in the last 30 years! But to start, let’s simply define massage as the manual manipulation of soft body tissues (muscle, connective
tissue, tendons, and ligaments) to enhance health and well-being.
Massage is often used for specific reasons, such as relief from pain, stress
reduction, or enhancement of athletic performance. But whether there is a
specific goal or not, massage therapy tends to increase the general health and
well-being of the recipient.

What is chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a branch of the healing arts which is based upon the
understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning
nervous system (especially the spine, and the nerves extending from the spine to
all parts of the body). "Chiropractic" comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos,
meaning "effective treatment by hand." Chiropractic stresses the idea that the
cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its
environment. It looks to address these diseases not by the use of drugs and
chemicals, but by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal area of the body
which is functioning improperly.
The conditions which doctors of chiropractic address are as varied and as
vast as the nervous system itself. All chiropractors use a standard procedure of
examination to diagnose a patient's condition and arrive at a course of
treatment. Doctors of chiropractic use the same time-honored methods of
consultation, case history, physical examination, laboratory analysis and x-ray
examination as any other doctor. In addition, they provide a careful
chiropractic structural examination, paying particular attention to the
spine.
The examination of the spine to evaluate structure and function is what makes
chiropractic different from other health care procedures. Your spinal column is
a series of movable bones which begin at the base of your skull and end in the
center of your hips. Thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves extend down the spine
from the brain and exit through a series of openings. The nerves leave the spine
and form a complicated network which influences every living tissue in your
body.
Accidents, falls, stress, tension, overexertion, and countless other factors
can result in a displacement or derangement of the spinal column, causing
irritation to spinal nerve roots. These irritations are often what cause
malfunctions in the human body. Chiropractic teaches that reducing or
eliminating this irritation to spinal nerves can cause your body to operate more
efficiently and more comfortably.
Chiropractic also places an emphasis on nutritional and exercise programs,
wellness and lifestyle modifications for promoting physical and mental health.
While chiropractors make no use of drugs or surgery, doctors of chiropractic do
refer patients for medical care when those interventions are indicated. In fact,
chiropractors, medical doctors, physical therapists and other health care
professionals now work as partners in occupational health, sports medicine, and
a wide variety of other rehabilitation practices.
Our staff doctor has over 4 years of experience in personal injury, worker's compensation, and wellness care chiropractic. He is bilingual in English and Spanish to better serve the needs of the growing Hispanic community in Fort Worth.
