We welcome local residents and those of surrounding areas since we are serving Troy, Bloomfield, Southfield, Royal Oak, Novi and Ferndale community members. If you are seeing a chiropractor at Birmingham Wellness Center and desire massage therapy to complement our chiropractic services, we want to answer a few questions about our services.
What are the benefits?
Our massage therapists use various techniques, pressures and movements to ensure you receive the best massage for your condition. Massage therapy is beneficial when recovering from an injury as it can prevent the formation of scar tissue which may increase pain and limit range of motion. Massage is also helpful for stress reduction, decreasing chronic pain and making your chiropractic adjustments easier. Massages help to reduce headaches, joint pain and lower back pain as well.
What Should I Wear?
We want you to be comfortable. If you feel comfortable wearing only your undergarments, we keep you covered with a sheet and only uncover the muscles that are being massaged. Otherwise, we encourage you to wear loose and comfortable clothing so you are able to relax and our therapists can tend to your muscles.
How Long is a Massage Session?
We accommodate your needs and we offer sessions between 30-90 minutes or 120 minutes.
I am pregnant. Can I still receive a massage?
Yes. We perform prenatal massages to reduce swelling, eliminate back pain and leg pain. You are propped on pillows for your comfort during the massage. We are also able to perform chair massages to make you more comfortable.
Do You Use Lotions orOils?
Sometimes our therapists will use lotions or oils for a smoother touch on your skin. We may scent the liquid with essential oils to help increase your relaxation and decrease your pain. We also talk with you first to determine your preferences and the best extras to fit your needs.
