For example, if there is a misalignment of the spine, the soft tissues and musculature in the area may also get very tense as the body attempts to protect the injured, misaligned area. Supplementing your adjustments, which work to correct the misalignment, with therapeutic stretching and exercises may help to relax the muscles in the area to help you feel better, faster.
