Did You Know?

Between 15-40% of people injured in a motor vehicle accident will suffer long-lasting, chronic pain?
Whiplash not only increases the chances of developing chronic neck pain, but it’s also correlated with an increase in systemic health effects – causing the entire body to become more easily sick and injured.
Very close to 100% of all whiplash-induced chronic pain sufferers also suffered psychological effects such as depression along with the whiplash – and that psychotherapy wasn’t able to treat those psychological effects (or the pain that caused them)
Seventeen Years after a whiplash injury occurred, 55% of people studied were still suffering from the pain that their original trauma caused.
If your doctor deems your whiplash severe enough to warrant a cervical collar, there is a 90% chance that you will still be suffering from severe neck pain six months later.
One in fifty whiplash sufferers will have pain and problems so severe that they will require ongoing medical evaluations and prescription-level drug support seven and a half years later.
1% of all people on Earth will suffer chronic neck pain based on a whiplash injury at some point during their lives.

The Automobile Is One of the Deadliest Devices on Earth

Statistically, the average American will be in one significant motor vehicle accident every decade. Car crashes have been the leading cause of death among American children for decades. More than one hundred times as many Americans have died from auto accidents than have died of terrorist attacks or terrorism-related activities since (and including) 9/11. More than two and a half times as many Americans have died in car accidents than have been killed in wars since Henry Ford first began mass-producing automobiles. And that’s just the deaths. Hundreds of millions more Americans than that have been profoundly injured – and all of those injuries have a massive effect on our economy, our personal lives, and our health care bills.

What Can We Do?

Before we can address those injuries, we need to understand them. We need to know:

What parts of the body are damaged in a whiplash collision?
What parts are the primary causes of chronic whiplash pain?
What parts of the neck and shoulders are able to be addressed by soft-tissue therapy, neuromuscular and therapeutic massage?

As it happens, all three of those answers are nearly identical: the tissues that surround and support the spine, including the facet joints and the disc joints. The logical conclusion is that many whiplash patients will develop severe pain that can be more effectively addressed by therapeutic massage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Massage Therapy

What makes Massage Revolution different from other massage places?

Massage Revolution specializes in neuromuscular massage therapy, a highly targeted and results-driven approach designed to relieve pain by addressing the underlying muscular causes—such as trigger points, tight muscles, nerve compression, and postural imbalances.

Unlike typical massage places that focus mainly on relaxation, our treatments are designed to deliver fast, noticeable, and lasting relief from chronic pain, tension, and restricted movement.

At the same time, if you’re simply looking for an exceptional therapeutic or relaxation massage, we offer that too—performed with a level of precision and care that most places don’t provide.

What types of massage do you offer?

We offer a full range of therapeutic massage services tailored to your needs, including:

neuromuscular massage therapy
deep tissue massage
sports massage
therapeutic relaxation massage
prenatal massage
trigger point therapy

Every session is fully customized so you receive exactly the type of treatment your body needs—whether that’s targeted pain relief, recovery, or relaxation.

Do I need to be in pain to benefit from massage therapy?

Not at all.

Many clients come in for stress relief, relaxation, improved circulation, and overall wellness. Massage therapy can also help prevent future pain by keeping muscles balanced and reducing tension before it becomes a problem.

What conditions can your massage therapy help with?

Our treatments—especially neuromuscular massage—are highly effective for:

back pain
neck pain
headaches and migraines
shoulder and hip pain
sciatica
muscle tension and trigger points
sports injuries
postural pain from sitting or computer work

Because we focus on the muscular root causes of pain, clients often experience longer-lasting results compared to traditional massage.

Why is neuromuscular massage more effective for pain relief?

Neuromuscular massage is designed to locate and correct the exact source of pain inside the muscles.

Instead of simply relaxing the body temporarily, it targets trigger points, muscle imbalances, and nerve compression—helping restore proper function and prevent the pain from continually coming back.

This is why many clients choose it when other treatments haven’t worked.

Do you accept insurance for massage therapy?

Yes. Physicians within Massage Revolution accept PPO insurance plans, liens, and auto insurance, and in many cases clients pay little to nothing out of pocket.

We also offer fast, free insurance verification so you can quickly find out what your plan covers—with no obligation.

How often should I get a massage?

It depends on your goals and condition.

If you’re dealing with pain, many clients begin with a short series of treatments to correct the issue. After that, some continue with maintenance sessions to stay pain-free, while others come in as needed.

Your therapist will recommend a plan based on your specific situation.

Is massage therapy painful?

Massage—especially neuromuscular therapy—can feel a little more intense in areas where muscles are tight or restricted.

However, it should always remain within your comfort and productive level. Your therapist will adjust pressure and communicate with you throughout the session to ensure it is both effective and comfortable.

Where is Massage Revolution located?

Massage Revolution’s Back & Neck Relief Center is located in Manhattan Beach, California, serving clients from across Los Angeles and the South Bay including Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, El Segundo, and surrounding areas.

How quickly will I see results?

Many clients feel noticeable relief after their first session.

For more chronic or long-standing conditions, a short series of treatments is typically recommended to fully correct the underlying issue and create lasting results.

Why do so many people struggle with chronic muscle pain for years?

Most treatments focus on symptoms instead of the root cause.

Pain is often driven by underlying muscular issues such as trigger points, imbalances, and nerve compression that are never fully addressed.

By identifying and treating these deeper causes, neuromuscular massage helps break the cycle of recurring pain.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple.

You can call our clinic directly or check your insurance benefits online. Our team will guide you through the process and help you take the first step toward lasting relief.
