Lower Back Pain and Migraines Problems
  • Milpitas Spine Center

Massage Treatment
  • A meta-analysis study published in the Journal of
    Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation found that
    massage was effective in the treatment of low
    back pain and migraines in the short term, but
    not in the long term. It is important to remember
    that massage is not a substitute for proper
    medical care, so it is important to seek
    professional help before trying the treatment. In
    addition to the research results, it is also
    important to remember that the treatments may not
    be as effective for some individuals.

Medical Supplements
  • Although massage is not a substitute for medical
    treatment, it can be a useful supplement to
    medical care for lower back pain. It can ease the
    discomfort and help patients get back to normal
    activities faster. Depending on the severity and
    type of low back pain, massage can improve your
    quality of life and reduce the amount of time it
    takes to recover from your injury. The main
    drawbacks of this treatment are the cost and the
    number of sessions you must attend.

Massage Therapy
  • In addition to conventional medical care, massage
    therapy may also help reduce back pain and
    increase your quality of life. For example, you
    may need several sessions before you can resume
    regular activities. However, this treatment does
    not come cheap. The best place to seek treatment
    for back pain is at a local spa or salon. You can
    also find an experienced masseuse online. A good
    masseuse will know how to properly assess your
    condition and can recommend the best methods of
    care for you.

Treatment of Back Pain
  • One study concluded that massage may help treat
    chronic back pain, and that the benefits may last
    for up to six months. In this trial, 401
    participants with chronic back pain were divided
    into three groups and given an hour of massage
    therapy each week for ten weeks. The groups
    treated with structural or relaxation massage
    showed more positive effects than the control
    group. There was no significant clinical
    difference in the groups that received structural
    and relaxation massage.

Treatment of Headache
  • There is little research to support massage
    therapy's use in treating headaches.
    Nevertheless, massage may help reduce back pain
    and improve range of motion. It can also improve
    your immune system and relieve stress. For some
    people, it can be beneficial in the treatment of
    fibromyalgia. A regular massage can also relieve
    migraines. It has the same benefits as other
    types of massage, including reducing pain and
    increasing range of motion.

7
Multidisciplinary Approach
  • The best way to treat back pain and headaches is
    with a multidisciplinary approach. A
    multidisciplinary approach may include
    chiropractic, physical therapy, medication, dry
    needling, massage therapy, and acupuncture. A
    multidisciplinary approach will focus on a wide
    variety of causes, including the cause and
    location of the pain. During a massage session,
    the therapist will focus on the body's soft
    tissues and massage techniques.

8
Dry Needling
  • Massage therapy is an effective treatment for
    back pain and can help treat headaches as well.
    It is important to seek professional help for
    headaches, which can be beneficial for you. A
    multidisciplinary approach involves chiropractic
    care, physical therapy, dry needling, and massage
    therapy. A multidisciplinary approach can also
    include dry needling. Among the most common types
    of massages, a deep tissue massage is an
    effective option for treating low back pain.

9
Neuromuscular Therapy
  • A massage can be beneficial for the treatment of
    many different conditions. A massage therapist
    can use a range of techniques to treat headache
    pain, including myofascial release (MFR),
    neuromuscular therapy, and sports massage. For
    acute pain, a licensed therapist will apply a
    variety of muscle energy techniques. For chronic
    pain, a neuromuscular therapist will use the most
    effective therapeutic technique for the area in
    question.

10
Treatment of Chronic Tension
  • The most common type of massage therapy is used
    for treating chronic tension headaches. The goal
    of a massage therapy treatment is to provide
    relief from chronic pain. A skilled massage
    therapist can identify the problem areas of the
    body and treat them with various techniques.
    Several studies have found that a massage can
    help relieve the pain of a pinched nerve. It can
    also reduce the risk of developing a headache.
