Why you might feel emotional after a massage or chiropractic adjustment:

It’s more common than you think to feel emotional–or even tearful after a massage or adjustment. And it doesn’t mean anything is wrong.

Here’s why it can happen:

Release of stored tension – stress and emotions can be held in the muscles and nervous system, and treatment helps release them.

Nervous system reset–massage and adjustments activate your “rest and digest” response, allowing emotions to surface.

Hormonal shifts–serotonin increases while stress hormones decrease, which can affect mood.

Mental decompression–slowing down gives your body space to let go.

Emotional release is often a sign your body is healing and rebalancing

Drink water, rest, and be gentle with yourself after your session.

It’s common to feel “fine” immediately after an accident only to notice discomfort days later. Adrenaline can temporarily mask pain while inflammation and muscle tension build over time.

Chiropractic evaluations focus on how joints and the spine are functioning, even before pain becomes noticeable. Massage therapy helps reduce delayed tightness and supports circulation to affected tissues.

Early care can help identify issues before they interfere with daily movement.

Ever notice your massage therapist gently reminding you to breathe? There’s a real reason for that–and it goes way beyond relaxation.

Slow deep breathing signals your nervous system that it’s safe to let go. That shift helps move your body out of ‘fight or flight’ and into a calmer state where muscles can actually relax. When that happens, your therapist can work more effectively, and your body can release tension more deeply.

Deep breathing also improves circulation and oxygen flow, helping your tissues respond better to the work being done. Which means less pain, and longer lasting relief after your session.

Next time you’re on the table, try matching your breath to the work and let your body soften into it. Want tips for getting even more out of your massage? Message us and we will give you all the details!

Your core is more than abs – it’s your spine’s built-in support system.

When your core is strong, your posture improves, movement feels easier, and that lingering back tension starts to fade. But when it’s weak? Your spine has to work overtime to keep you upright.

Start simple:
- Planks for stability
- Bridges for glute + core connection
- Deep breathing to activate those inner muscles

You don’t need to spend hours at the gym – just consistent, intentional movement. Your spine (and your future self) will thank you.

Ask our chiropractors or massage therapists for personalized exercises that keep your core strong and your spine happy!

Cold and flu season is here, and your immune system works best when your body is functioning in balance.

Your spine protects your nervous system–the control center that helps regulate stress response, healing, and immune function. When spinal restrictions are present, that communication can be disrupted.

Chiropractic care may help support your immunity by:

- Enhancing communication between the brain and body

- Helping the body better manage physical and mental stress

- Encouraging healthy circulation and lymphatic movement

- Supporting overall balance so your body can adapt and recover

Chiropractic care isn’t about treating illness–it’s about supporting your body’s natural ability to stay resilient and well.

Stay aligned. Stay supported. Book your adjustment today!

We recommend checking your benefits early so there are no surprises. Our front desk team is happy to help verify your coverage and answer any questions.

Your muscles are story tellers—they don’t just move you, they hold onto stress, posture habits, and tension.

Skip massage or body work for months and here’s what can sneak up on you:

- Tight shoulders that refuse to drop
- Back stiffness that make bending a chore
- Headaches that show up uninvited
- Sleep that feels restless no matter how tired you are
- Slouching that becomes your new default

Long-term tension isn’t just uncomfortable—it trains your nervous system to stay stressed. Massage and chiropractic care are like hitting the “reset” button: loosening tight spots, improving circulation, and giving your mind a mini-vacation.

Think of it this way: you don’t wait for your car to break down to service it—why wait for your body?

Give your body the tune-up it deserves. Book today.
