Muscle and Fascia....what?

How Muscles & Fascia Play a Key Role in Chiropractic Care:

When people think of chiropractic care, they often picture spinal adjustments and the satisfying pop of a well-aligned joint. But there’s a whole world of soft tissue—muscles and fascia—that plays a major role in how you move, how you feel, and how you heal.

At Luxury Spine and Wellness, we treat more than just your spine. We focus on the entire musculoskeletal system, which includes the muscles that move you and the fascia that holds everything together.

So, what is fascia?

Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and supports your muscles, bones, and organs. Think of it like a web that keeps everything in place but is also flexible enough to allow movement. When fascia becomes tight, sticky, or inflamed (from injury, stress, or overuse), it can restrict movement and contribute to pain—sometimes far from the source of the issue.

Why do muscles matter in Chiropractic care?

Muscles connect to joints, there job when they contract is to move a joint(s). Tight, overworked, or injured muscles can pull joints out of alignment, reduce mobility, and contribute to chronic pain. Releasing that tension with targeted soft tissue work helps your adjustment last longer and your body function better.

That’s why every visit in our office goes beyond just an adjustment. We incorporate techniques like:

• Trigger point therapy

• Stretching

• Cupping

• Dry needling

• IASTM (aka Scraping/Graston/Gua Sha)

  
  

By addressing both the alignment of your joints and the tension in your muscles and fascia, we help your body move more freely, recover faster, and stay out of pain longer.

The big picture:

Pain and dysfunction rarely come from one isolated issue. By treating your body as a connected system—not just a spine—we support more lasting relief and better long-term outcomes.

If you're tired of chasing the same aches and pains, it’s time for a whole-body approach that goes deeper than the surface.
