Sports & Swedish Massage with Dylan

We’re delighted to offer Sports and Swedish Massage Therapy at the clinic with Dylan.

Why Choose Massage?

Massage therapy is a powerful way to care for your body – whether you’re active, dealing with muscle tension, or simply needing time to relax.

What type of massage is for me?

At Connect Spinal Health we offer both Swedish massage and Sports massage appointments.

• Sports Massage: Uses a combination of long, gliding strokes, kneading, friction, and gentle stretching. The pressure ranges from light to medium-firm, depending on your preference. Swedish massage is perfect for relaxation, improving circulation, reducing general tension, supporting lymphatic drainage and calming your nervous system.
• Swedish Massage: involves deep tissue work and is a more intensive technique targeting chronic tension in deeper layers of muscle and fascia. This typically involves slow, concentrated strokes and firm pressure with the fingers, forearm or elbow. Sports massage focuses on the areas at the root of dysfunction, such as those ‘knots’ in muscles, improving range of motion and recovery from activity, injury or chronic pain.

How long a session should I book?

We offer 30-minute and 60-minute massage appointments. In a session, our therapist will begin by taking you through some physical tests to identify any areas or muscles that may be causing you discomfort, then begin to massage through those areas and have you coming out feeling more comfortable, easier moving and carrying less tension.
30-minute appointments are perfect if you have a small area you want massaged or prefer a lighter massage. If you have a chronic issue, are looking for full-body massage or it is your first time with our therapist at Connect Spinal Health, then 60-minute appointments may be for you.

Massage & Chiropractic – The Perfect Combination

Massage works hand in hand with your chiropractic care. By reducing muscle tension and improving flexibility, massage helps your body respond better to adjustments, recover faster, and maintain lasting results.

Massage complements Chiropractic care, which is why we offer Massage therapy at Connect Spinal Health.

What to wear?

Our therapists are professionals and work with your comfort level of clothing. While some massage techniques can be performed over the clothes, you will get the best results when we can massage your skin directly. So, if possible, wear shorts.
