At Thrive, we believe lasting results come from evidence-based, collaborative care — combining therapies that support the body as an integrated system.
Dr. Clive Clutton’s approach to chiropractic care reflects this philosophy. Using a diversified, evidence-informed model, his treatments go beyond frequent adjustments to include movement assessment, joint and soft-tissue mobilization, exercise prescription, and nervous system support. This balanced, less adjustment-focused style often pairs beautifully with Massage Therapy.

Rather than aiming for short-term relief, Dr. Clutton’s focus on posture, movement patterns, and neuromuscular balance promotes gentle, sustainable improvement — ideal for people who benefit from a slower, more integrative pace of care.
Massage Therapy complements this by addressing muscle tension, fascial restrictions, and compensatory patterns, helping the body respond more effectively to chiropractic work. When soft tissues are balanced, chiropractic techniques — whether mobilizations, specific adjustments, or functional rehab — tend to integrate more naturally into movement and posture.

A collaborative care plan may include:
Massage therapy to reduce tension, improve tissue mobility, and enhance recovery
Chiropractic care centered on restoring joint motion, improving biomechanics, and regulating nervous system tone
Shared goals around posture, pain management, and performance

This integrated approach reflects the evidence that musculoskeletal function depends on both joint and soft-tissue health. When chiropractic and massage therapy work hand in hand, clients often experience care that is comprehensive, responsive, and thoughtfully paced.
