Therapeutic Massage does not have to be painful.  I have certifications in Active Release Technique (Level 1--Spine, Upper Extremity, Lower Extremity, Nerve, Level 2-Spine), Graston Technique, Machine Cupping, Myofascial Release (John Barnes method) and Myoskeletal Alignment Technique.  The massage session is interactive and will generally include areas that are not on the main complaint list as most of the time pain is a result of tension in a different location. Most pain is caused by overuse injuries.  You may have not done anything out of the ordinary and all of a sudden, you have pain that wasn't there before.   I often say, "Camel, meet straw."  We are often very good at ignoring our body's pain signals.  

If you're wondering if your health insurance covers the Manual Therapy I do and you're interested in becoming a patient of Dr. Park's, please call Park Chiropractic to find out.  You can reach them at (906)226-2666.  I highly recommend Dr. Park.  He's an amazing chiropractor that puts his patients first and will listen to your needs.
