Massage Therapy at
Romford and Ilford Family Chiropractic

The use of massage can be traced back to 2700 B.C., when it was applied to address chills, fever and paralysis in China. The famous Greek physician Hippocrates recommended that massage be used to treat sports and war injuries in 400 B.C.Getting a massage triggers the release of serotonin, which is your body’s antidepressant. You can feel the effects immediately afterwards. You may be calmer, more focused and overall happier after your massage.

At Romford and Ilford Family Chiropractic, we’re pleased to offer this healing art.
