5 Common FAQs About Remedial Massage
What is remedial massage?
Itâs a targeted therapy to relieve muscular pain, correct imbalances, support rehabilitation from injury, and improve movement.
How often should I get treated?
Acute injuries, like recent muscle strains or sprains, often require only a handful of closely spaced sessions to support healing and can resolve more quickly. Chronic conditions or long-standing postural issues typically need a longer-term, consistent approach to achieve lasting change. Iâll work closely with you to tailor your treatment frequency and adjust your plan as we monitor your body's response to therapy, ensuring you achieve the best results for your specific needs.
Will it hurt?
âNo pain, no gainâ belongs in the gymâ not the treatment room. I use a pressure scale during every session to ensure we work within your bodyâs comfort zone and needs on any given day, so you get effective therapy without unnecessary discomfort.
What areas are treated?
I use quick muscle testing to pinpoint which muscles contribute to your discomfort. This targeted method addresses the root cause, not just surface tension. Testing doesnât take long, but itâs a key part of treatmentâhelping ensure you experience long-lasting results, not just temporary relief.
Can anyone receive remedial massage?
Yes, remedial massage is safe and effective for most ages, tailored to your individual health needs. My intake forms ensure I consider any health concerns or medications, so your treatment is safe and appropriate. Advising me of previous injuries or accidentsâeven those that may not seem relevant to youâhelps fill in the puzzle, especially when weâre dealing with long-term or chronic issues.
