Massage Muscle Therapy to help with Stiffness and Numbness

Spinal Cord injuries result in stiffness, weakness, paresthesia and numbness.


Research wanted to look into whether massage therapy resulted in any improvements


The patient received 8 sessions over 5 months, with the massage session lasting 1 hour each time


The results showed a decrease in pain and pins and needles down the arm which is an encouraging sign


Massage therapy can be as effective as standard medical care for chronic pain. It is theorised that tactile stimulation of massage therapy reduces pain transmission
