What is Massage Therapy?
Complementary to chiropractic care at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic with Cox Technic Flexion Distraction and Decompression spinal manipulation, massage therapy is the manual manipulation of the body's soft tissue structures through an assortment of methods ranging from relaxing to rehabilitative.
