Massage Therapy in Fort Myers
Massage at Lifestyles Healthcare Group focuses on increasing physical function, not just providing temporary relaxation. Our skilled therapists, Emil and Savion, use targeted pressure, stretching techniques, and myofascial work to break up adhesions and release tight muscles.
While you’ll certainly feel relaxed after your session, the real goal is improving how your body functions. This therapeutic approach complements Dr. Stokke’s chiropractic adjustments perfectly, helping your body maintain proper alignment for more extended periods after treatment.
Special Techniques for Better Results
Our team employs multiple advanced methods to address your specific needs. Sports massage targets the unique requirements of athletic bodies, helping with both performance enhancement and recovery. Deep tissue techniques access underlying muscle layers where chronic tension often resides.
Why Combining Massage With Chiropractic Works
“When we’re adjusting a patient, those muscles can remain stiff and tight,” says Dr. Stokke, explaining the complementary nature of massage and adjustments. While chiropractic realigns your spine and joints, our bodywork addresses the surrounding soft tissues that can pull your body back out of alignment.
Many patients experience longer-lasting results when combining these therapies because each addresses a different aspect of the musculoskeletal system. This integrated approach treats your body as the interconnected system it truly is.
Preparing for Your First Session
Getting the most from your session requires minimal but important preparation. Dress comfortably in clothes that are easy to remove and put back on. Hydration plays a crucial role both before and after your treatment—proper water intake helps your muscles respond better to therapy and aids in flushing out toxins released during the session. Your therapist will discuss any areas of concern before beginning and adjust pressure and techniques to suit your comfort level and therapeutic needs.
