Yes, massage therapy can complement physical therapy. While physical therapy primarily focuses on restoring mobility, strength, and functional movement, massage therapy helps by reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation. When used together, the two approaches can speed up recovery, ease pain, and support long-term wellness. From a practitioner's perspective, having the right treatment equipment plays an important role in delivering these therapies effectively. A well-designed physical therapy treatment table not only provides comfort and proper positioning for patients but also allows therapists to seamlessly combine manual therapy techniques, massage, and rehabilitative exercises in one session. At Elite Chiro Tables, we understand that physical therapy and massage therapy often go hand in hand. That's why our tables are built to support both modalities, giving professionals the flexibility to integrate massage techniques into physical therapy sessions and ultimately enhance patient outcomes.

When considering children for massage, it is very important that you speak to the massage therapist and inquire about their experience with children and the style of stone massage they are practicing.

Another thing to consider is that hot stone massage falls under thermotherapy, and that is generally not indicated for children.
