During this challenging time we are maintaining two top priorities: the health and safety of our patients, and the ability to continue providing our patients the best care possible. Although cleanliness is always a priority, we have taken many extra steps and will be bringing in outside services to thoroughly clean our facility. Although Ravenswood Health and Wellness Center is concerned for the well-being of our community, we also realize we serve an important role in keeping people well.
Please visit our Facebook page to access links, research, and articles about how to boost your immune system, the benefits of Chiropractic care and fighting off viruses, and our latest updates. Thank you. Of all the forms of healing, massage therapy is one that has used persistently throughout the centuries and has been adopted by a wide variety of cultures. Within the United States, massage therapy falls in the category of complementary and alternative medicine CAM ; it is sometimes used alongside conventional medicine.
Our Chicago massage therapy team at Ravenswood Health and Wellness Center is here to help you get the most benefits from Chicago chiropractic care through massage therapy. Research shows that about one-fourth of the adult American population has used massage therapy to control and alleviate pain. Our massage therapy at Ravenswood, in conjunction with chiropractic care, has proven to be effective in relieving pain, coaxing vertebrae and supporting muscles into proper alignment, as well as rehabilitating sports injuries.
In addition, Ravenswood's massage therapy also helps in relieving stress, anxiety, depression, thus promoting overall well-being and happiness. Thus, it will vary from patient to patient, and even from session to session throughout the course of the treatment.
The preliminary meeting with our Lead Massage Therapist will first involve a routine inquiry about your medical history, current symptoms, and desired results. Patients have the option to wear loose-fitting clothing, or to simply expose the particular area being massaged through use of a sheet or towel. Our expertise is based on years of careful study and examination of the positive effects of massage therapy in Chicago and across the nation.
