Ajax, ON -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/04/2014 --Harwood Chiropractic Centre in Ajax, Ontario, encourages patients to take advantage of the therapeutic and healing benefits of professional massage therapy. Ontario residents can consider a variety of massage therapy treatments when undergoing chiropractic treatment for pain, wellness or injury. Massage therapy treatment is non-invasive and has been shown effective in correcting muscular dysfunctions and improving the body’s overall functionality and wellness for patients of any age. A skilled massage therapist can apply techniques for improving circulation, lymphatic function, and bolstering the immune system. Massage can relax muscles and connective tissues, increasing flexibility, releasing tension and alleviating chronic pain symptoms.
