MASSAGE 

What is remedial massage?

If you have particular muscle tension or chronic pain a remedial massage may be for you. Your remedial massage therapist will assess where you need treatment and what may be causing your pain. They’ll perform some tests to see exactly which muscles are giving you trouble and will tailor a treatment plan to suit. The treatment itself may involve deep tissue work for short periods of time, but the results are definitely worth it!

​

Conditions such as sciatica, carpal tunnel, stiff necks, headaches, sports injuries and many more complaints can be eased with a remedial treatment.

​

Symptoms that you don’t need to ignore

 

When muscles become painful, stiff, sore, knotted or tense, Remedial Massage provides a healing treatment that can be gentle or strong, deep or shallow, depending on what the patient requires and needs. Modern studies have shown that massage can be used to successfully treat a variety of disorders, including:

  • anxiety

  • arthritis

  • back or neck pain

  • soft tissue injuries

  • chronic pain

  • depression

  • headache

  • high blood pressure

  • insomnia

​

Benefits of Remedial Massage

Key benefits of Remedial Massage include: the stimulation to the blood supply allowing toxins in the muscles to be removed; the calming of the nervous system to ease pain and discomfort; and the toning and relaxing of muscles to improve joint mobility. An improvement to the health of the cells, the repairing of tissues, and the easing of stiffness and tension can also be experienced through remedial relaxation.
 

Muscular and skeletal dysfunctions often addressed with Remedial Massage include Fibrositis, Spondylitis, Arthritis, frozen shoulder, muscular cramps, Whiplash, muscular atrophy, sports and dancing injuries.

​

Sessions usually take 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the whether the practitioner will just address a specific area or give a whole body massage. As oil is used, it is necessary for the patient to be semi-unclothed for the treatment.
