Soft tissue Chiropractic

[Sherry1960]

Anyone go to a chiropractor who specializes in soft tissue therapy? I'm understanding it benefits PD patients.

what is soft tissue therapy

[Sherry1960]

Soft tissue therapy like ART (Active Release Therapy) is suppose to help with flexibility and mobility of muscles and connective tissues. . It helps with the scar tissue that an injury causes.

I know my physical therapist said pt's and chirps are in a battle because pt's also do small adjustments...makes sense that chirps would respond but. It sure if their license to practice covers soft tissue...

Not chirps. Chiro's

I started seeing a Chiro for backpain prior to being diagnosed with PD a year and a half ago. It helped a little but the rigidity in my muscles still caused pain daily. A few months ago I started seeing a massage therapist. Now the combination of the massage and chiro has resulted in no backpain at least for the past week. Hopefully it will continue.
