Soft Tissue & Massage Therapy

At Lyn Lake Chiropractic, soft tissue and massage therapy are part of your chiropractic care, not a stand-alone spa service. During your treatment visit, a massage therapist works on the specific muscles that need help, so your adjustment works better and your recovery lasts. Every treatment is personalized to your condition, injury history and recovery goals.

Who Can Benefit from Massage Therapy?

  • Office workers with neck pain from prolonged sitting
  • Athletes needing faster recovery and flexibility
  • Chronic back pain and sciatica patients
  • Headache and migraine sufferers
  • Stress-related muscle tension and reduced flexibility
  • Injury recovery and rehabilitation

Our Minneapolis chiropractors feel strongly that soft tissue work and massage are a key aspect of your healing, and our waiting room has massage chairs, free of charge.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is soft tissue massage therapy?

Soft tissue massage therapy focuses on treating muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia to reduce pain, improve flexibility, increase circulation, and support recovery from injuries or chronic musculoskeletal conditions.

How is therapeutic massage different from a relaxation massage?

Therapeutic massage is designed to address specific pain, injuries, mobility restrictions, and rehabilitation goals, while relaxation massage primarily focuses on reducing stress and promoting general wellness.

Can massage therapy help relieve lower back pain?

Yes. Massage therapy can reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, increase flexibility, and complement chiropractic treatment to help manage lower back pain and improve daily function.

Is Lyn Lake Chiropractic a massage center?

No. We're a chiropractic clinic. Soft tissue work and therapeutic massage are built into your chiropractic treatment at both our Uptown/South Minneapolis and Golden Valley clinics, so muscles and joints are treated together.

Can I book a one-hour massage?

Yes, directly with one of our massage therapists. They offer one-hour sessions outside clinic hours and handle their own scheduling. Call our office at (612) 879-8000 and we'll connect you. Learn more on our Massage Therapy page.
