What is Soft Tissue Therapy?

Soft tissue therapy encompasses massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and other hands, on techniques that address muscle tension, inflammation, and scar tissue. These therapies complement spinal adjustments by releasing tight muscles, improving circulation, and reducing pain. Soft tissue work is essential for comprehensive healing and preventing injury recurrence.
