Massage Therapy: Research Studies & Pain Traitement 

Qu'est-ce que la massothérapie?

Massage therapy is defined as manual manipulation of soft body tissues to enhance a person’s health and well-being. Massage therapy is a common method used to reduce pain and relieve muscle tension.

Massage Therapy Studies

A systematic review is a type of literature review that collect and critically analyze multiple research studies or papers. A 2015 systematic review by Bervoets, et. al looked at the efficacy of massage therapy for treating chronic pain in 26 randomized trials of 2,565 participants. Researchers found that massage therapy alone was more effective in reducing pain and improving function in comparison to no treatment at all; however, massage therapy was not as effective in reducing pain and improving some musculoskeletal conditions in comparison to other active treatments.6

A systematic review by Chou, et. al analyzed 9 trials that researched massage therapy. Most trials saw no difference in reported pain and function after massage therapy.7 Most trials saw increased efficacy of massage therapy on short-term pain, but not long-term. These results faded over time.

While massage therapy may not be effective in long-term pain relief, studies have shown that ASTR treatment provides patients with short-term and long-term pain relief. ASTR stands for Advanced Soft Tissue Release, a manual therapy specialty developed by Dr. Joesph Jacobs, DPT. ASTR takes a holistic approach to treating the source of soft tissue restriction in a way that is virtually pain-free and highly effective.

Traitement efficace contre la douleur


ASTR traite les douleurs musculaires et articulaires de manière douce, efficace et naturelle en s'attaquant aux déséquilibres musculaires, aux tissus cicatriciels, aux points de déclenchement, aux restrictions des fascias, à l'inflammation, à la posture, à la mécanique corporelle qui sont souvent à l'origine de la douleur. ASTR adopte une approche holistique pour traiter les causes profondes de la douleur, pas seulement les symptômes. Le traitement ASTR peut être fait à la maison pour les douleurs musculaires et articulaires.
