For those of you out there who visit your favorite Scottsdale Chiropractor and Massage Therapist regularly, it may come as no surprise that a Consumer Reports survey of over 34,000 participants shows chiropractic ranked ahead of all conventional treatments for back pain. Deep tissue massage was also very popular among chosen treatments, particularly for osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia sufferers.

Tiffany Field, PhD, director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine explains that hands-on therapies work well for [many] conditions because "moderate pressure to muscles and soft tissues stimulates a cascade of biological effects." She states that the effects of hands-on pressure and touch are so compelling that she recommends "a regular dose, just like diet and exercise."
