chiropractor, is sports
massage also necessary?
Sports massage therapy used in conjunction with chiropractic
adjustments can be very beneficial.
If a horse has very tight muscles with large spasms in them
the chiropractor may have trouble getting the joint to move
during an adjustment. If the joint does adjust, the muscles
being shortened and tight can pull the adjustment back out.
Using sports massage therapy prior to a chiropractic
adjustment can help the chiropractor be more affective, and
allow the horse to be more easily adjusted.
Using sports massage therapy in between chiropractic
adjustments will help the horse to stay in alignment and
hopefully not require as frequent chiropractic treatments.
