When many patients think of massage therapy, they most likely picture a swanky day spa with soothing music and estheticians providing facials. What many do not realize is, they can reap all of the pain relief and wellness benefits of this practice right here in our clinic!

Natural Care Chiropractic offers Lindenhurst, Wadsworth, Gurnee, and Antioch area patients the opportunity for healing through massage therapy. All of our massage treatments are tailored to the needs of the individual patient, ranging from sports medicine and physical therapy related care to pregnancy discomfort relief. Or, if preferred, just a soothing massage after a long day at work or play!


It is important to realize that not all massage techniques and therapists are the same. By receiving a massage at a chiropractor office, a patient knows they are in the hands of professionals trained in muscle, spine, and back pain management.

Massage has several different facets to the general practice technique. Some involve oils, certain tools, stretching, or particular movements or repetitions. However, the most common technique used at Natural Care Chiropractic is the Myofascial Release. This generally involves gentle but sustained pressure on the body without using oils, machines, or other techniques. For anyone who has ever had a muscle knot in their back, shoulders, or neck is probably pretty familiar with this practice. Myofascial Release massage is one of the most effective ways to eliminate swelling and muscle pain when combined with chiropractor stimulated spinal adjustment and other similar treatments. Most patients see a difference after their first treatment.

We also offer the benefit of having several pregnancy trained massage therapists available at our clinic. The intense strain placed on a woman’s body during all phases of pregnancy (but especially in the third trimester) can cause intense discomfort and pain. Due to the sensitive nature of the position of the unborn child and pressure points within the body, not all massage therapists are qualified to handle this type of patient. Our trained and certified staff can provide relief from pain and increase movement during some of the most uncomfortable times in the duration of a pregnancy. This type of massage style has been proven to increase the mobility of many woman and even help ease recuperation after birth.

At Natural Care Chiropractic, we also offer our valued patients advice in several different stretching protocols and exercise techniques, designed to limber the musculoskeletal system, eliminate pain, and promote range of movement. Whether our patients are young or old, sporty or not, we can help.
