What is Massage Therapy and Cold Laser Therapy Care?
Everything in your body is connected. Your muscles and your bones work in unison with one another. So, if there is an issue with one bone or muscle, it can cause problems throughout the rest of your body. That is why here at Access To Health, we use massage therapy to reduce pain and bring balance to the body. Massage therapy alleviates muscle pain and stiffness, promotes blood flow, and eliminates cramps and spasms. Massage therapy also helps those with chronic illnesses, injuries, training for sports, and overall wellness.
Cold laser therapy is low-intensity laser therapy that stimulates healing while using low levels of light. The technique is called “cold” laser therapy because the low levels of light aren’t enough to heat your body’s tissue.

How We Can Help?
A massage can be beneficial for adults and even children. It improves circulation in the veins and arteries and often lowers blood pressure. It relieves pain, stress, and strengthens the immune system. Our team will recommend the right massage therapy for your condition. There are different types of massage therapy treatments that are used depending on the patient’s condition.
Types of Massage Therapy
Deep tissue massage
Deep tissue massage is used to heal injuries from accidents, chronic pain, limited mobility, accidents, muscle strain, carpal tunnel, and chronic illnesses. It focuses on treating deep tissue layers and muscles. Our team will apply heat or ice packs to relieve the pain after a massage. Often, deep tissue massage is combined with exercise therapy that can be done at home to increase movement and reduce pain. This massage therapy is used to manage pain and increase mobility in more serious chronic illnesses and injuries.
Sports massage
A study showed that chiropractic treatment has the same positive effect on blood pressure as blood pressure medications. Due to many side effects of medications, including nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and anxiety, many doctors prefer chiropractic care to control and lower blood pressure over traditional pharmaceutical treatment.
Trigger point therapy
Trigger point therapy is a form of massage therapy used by our chiropractor to treat muscle tension, mobility, and pain. Our doctor will massage trigger points that cause pain in the body. This treatment is used to help align the spine and soothe pain in the body.
How Many Massage Therapy Sessions Do You Need?
How many sessions you may need depends on the type of health concern being treated, whether it is part of a treatment or preventive care plan, the progressive results of each session, and your overall health goal. Our chiropractor will work with you to determine how many sessions of massage therapy will be required in your specific case.

Chiropractor in Fort Collins, CO
A chiropractic adjustment can make you feel so much better. Your body does not want to be out of alignment, and that’s exactly what an adjustment can help address. It is also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation. The adjustment refers to the manipulation of the vertebrae that have abnormal movements and are not functioning properly. A chiropractic adjustment will assist in fixing these issues.
Cold Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue and help accelerate your healing process. Laser treatment can be used on people suffering from acute and chronic conditions in order to eliminate pain and swelling, increase functionality, and reduce spasms.
Corrective Exercises
Corrective exercises are the use of bodily movements and/or postures to restore desirable changes in diseased or injured tissues. The corrective exercises are movement strategies that minimize or eliminate compensation. Corrective exercises should precede more integrated exercises, because they can cue the patient’s motor system to respond in a more desirable way and assist in removing or improving biomechanical constraints.
