RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ambrose Chiropractic and Acupuncture Clinic, LLC in Richmond, VA announced that the clinic is offering a one-hour massage special for $49.99. According to chiropractor Dr. Douglas Ambrose, therapeutic massage is beneficial for managing chronic pain, helping the body heal after an injury, relieving stress, and supporting whole body health. Prospective patients can take advantage of the massage special by visiting the chiropractor's website and making a purchase. The special rate is valid if purchased by December 12, 2012.
Richmond chiropractor Dr. Douglas Ambrose is offering a special discount on massage therapy, just in time for the hectic holiday season. Patients who use the online special will receive a one-hour massage for $49.99. Without the special offer, a regular priced massage is $80.
Dr. Ambrose is encouraging patients to take advantage of the special offer and experience the health benefits provided by therapeutic massage. These benefits include natural pain management, reduced stress, improved flexibility and athletic performance, and faster recovery following a soft tissue injury.
Ambrose Chiropractic and Acupuncture Clinic offers a variety of different massage treatments, including Swedish massage, sports massage, pre-natal pregnancy massage, deep tissue massage, and hot stone massage. Each massage treatment is tailored to a patient's individual wellness needs. The practice's three massage therapists work closely with Dr. Ambrose to target the underlying cause for muscle tension, chronic pain and other health problems.
"When the body is injured or in pain, muscles tense up," said Dr. Ambrose. "Lactic acid and other toxins may build up in the soft tissues, which blocks the healing process. Massaging injured tissue promotes the flow of oxygen-rich blood, which flushes out toxins and speeds recovery."
For patients struggling with chronic back or neck pain, Dr. Ambrose recommends deep tissue massage. Deep tissue massage releases tension trapped deep within connective muscle tissue, also known as the fascia. Sessions typically focus on a specific problem area, such as lower back pain.
The chiropractic center also offers prenatal massage to help relieve pregnancy pain. Benefits of pregnancy massage may include: drug-free relief from sciatica pain and muscle tension; reduced swelling in the feet, hands and ankles; and decreased stress.
Dr. Ambrose recommends sports massage for recreational athletes prior to a competitive event or race. According to the chiropractor, this massage helps athletes prepare for competition by increasing flexibility and releasing muscle tension.
In conjunction with the busy holiday season, individuals may also want to take advantage of the online special to relieve holiday stress with a relaxing hot stone massage.
Interested individuals can purchase the discounted massage therapy treatments by visiting http://richmondchiropractic.com before December 12. Patients who take part in the promotion will have 90 days after date of purchase in which to make an appointment for the massage.
