WHAT IS REMEDIAL MASSAGE?
Remedial massage is a focused, hands-on treatment that helps ease specific muscle and joint issues like ongoing pain, tightness, injuries, or limited movement. Using techniques such as deep tissue massage and trigger point therapy, your therapist works to release tension, improve flexibility, and get your blood flowing better—so you can move more comfortably and feel your best again.
Key Aspects of Remedial Massage (Made Simple & Friendly)
Targeted Treatment:
Unlike a relaxation massage that treats the whole body, remedial massage focuses on the specific areas causing discomfort or restriction.
Assessment-Based:
Your session usually begins with a quick assessment of your posture, movement, and health history. This helps your therapist understand what’s really going on and tailor the treatment just for you.
Benefits:
Remedial massage can help with managing pain, recovering from injuries, improving joint movement, correcting posture, and easing tension caused by stress.
Techniques Used:
It involves firm, controlled pressure to release tight muscles and mobilise soft tissues like muscles, tendons, and ligaments — helping your body move more freely.
After Effects:
It’s normal to feel a little sore for 24–48 hours after treatment. This is usually a sign your body is responding and healing, and the soreness typically settles quickly.
Remedial massage is considered a complementary therapy, meaning it works alongside conventional medical treatments to help manage pain, support recovery, and prevent future injuries.
