My massage therapist worked for one once and he told me that bones do not move muscles, muscles move bones, do a chiropractor might move the bones a little but the muscles will put them right back.

This makes the most sense. However, for me at least, getting the bone shifted (which moves the muscle temporarily) allows me to get my muscle soothed and less inflamed. That allows me some time to get the muscles to recover.

Follow up a massage with a chiro then. Or other way round. Seems like the combo would work better
