Massage for Pain Management

Chronic Pain Massage in Pensacola, FL

Massage for chronic pain is a specialized approach to medical massage to alleviate and manage persistent pain. This type of massage focuses on the muscles, soft tissues, and joints that are affected by chronic pain. This includes conditions such as migraines, tension headaches, TMJ disorders, neck pain, and fibromyalgia.

The main goals with chronic pain massage are to reduce pain and tension, increase mobility and range of motion, and enhance overall wellness. Medical massage therapists use specialized techniques such as myofascial release, deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, cupping, and stretching tailored to the needs of each individual client.

While targeting tension and inflammation, chronic pain massage also helps promote blood circulation and improve flexibility. Massage also stimulates the production of endorphins which helps to reduce stress, which is often associated with chronic pain.
