Targeted Care. Personalized Treatment. Better Movement.

At 14th Street Chiropractic, massage therapy is about more than relaxation. Our licensed massage therapists focus on helping patients address muscle tension, discomfort, restricted movement, and the physical demands of everyday life.

Whether you're an athlete, dealing with persistent muscle tightness, or simply looking to move and feel better, our therapists tailor each session to your individual needs.

Our Massage Therapy Services

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage uses focused pressure and slower techniques to address persistent muscle tension and tightness. Treatment can be adjusted to your comfort level and areas of concern.

Prenatal Massage

Pregnancy brings significant changes to the body, often accompanied by muscle tension, soreness, and physical discomfort.

Our prenatal massage services are designed with the comfort and changing needs of expectant mothers in mind. Sessions may focus on areas such as the lower back, hips, shoulders, and legs while using positioning and techniques appropriate for pregnancy.

Whether you're seeking relief from everyday muscle tension or simply an opportunity to relax, our therapists tailor each prenatal massage to your individual needs and stage of pregnancy.

Please let our office know that you're pregnant when scheduling so we can discuss appropriate accommodations and any health considerations.

Therapeutic Massage

Therapeutic massage focuses on muscle discomfort, tension, and movement restrictions. Each session is individualized, with techniques selected based on your goals and how your body responds.

Condition-Specific Massage

Not every person needs the same massage. Our therapists can focus on particular areas of discomfort, such as the neck, shoulders, lower back, hips, or legs.

This targeted approach allows treatment to address your specific concerns rather than following a routine full-body massage.

Sports Massage

Whether you're training, competing, or simply staying active, sports massage can help address muscle soreness and tension associated with physical activity.

Sessions can focus on the muscle groups most affected by your sport or activity, with an emphasis on comfort, mobility, and recovery.

Cupping Therapy

Cupping uses specialized cups to create gentle suction on the skin and underlying tissues.

It may be incorporated into a massage session to address muscle tightness and provide a different form of soft-tissue stimulation.

Cupping can cause temporary skin discoloration, and research into its effectiveness for musculoskeletal conditions remains limited.

Massage Therapy and Chiropractic Care

One of the advantages of receiving massage therapy at 14th Street Chiropractic is having both massage therapists and chiropractors under one roof.

Massage therapy and chiropractic care can be used independently or as complementary approaches, depending on your needs.

Our goal is to provide personalized treatment options that support your comfort, movement, and everyday activities.

You do not need to be receiving chiropractic care to inquire about massage therapy at our office.

Is Massage Therapy Covered by Insurance?

Some insurance plans provide benefits for massage therapy, but having chiropractic or massage therapy benefits does not automatically mean appointments with our licensed massage therapists are covered.

One of the most common sources of confusion is that certain insurance plans advertise massage therapy coverage but restrict reimbursement to services performed by specific healthcare providers, such as chiropractors or physical therapists.

As a result, your insurance policy may list massage therapy as a covered benefit while excluding appointments performed by a licensed massage therapist.

Before scheduling, we encourage you to verify that your plan specifically covers massage therapy performed by a licensed massage therapist—not just massage or manual therapy performed by a chiropractor or physical therapist.

Our office is happy to help answer questions about accepted insurance plans and potential out-of-pocket costs. Final coverage and payment are determined by your individual insurance policy.
