REMEDIAL MASSAGE

Remedial Massage is a therapeutic treatment aimed at relieving pain and discomfort in specific areas of the body, treating muscle injuries and/or tightness, chronic pain, restricted range of motion of the joint and postural issues, it’s aim is to restore the health of the musculoskeletal system and general well-being.

Unlike general relaxation massages, remedial massage targets the musculoskeletal system to promote healing and restore function.

Through different modalities and techniques and by working on deeper layers of muscle tissue, Remedial Massage helps alleviate pain, reduce muscle tension, and improve overall mobility and wellbeing.

This holistic approach focuses on identifying and treating the underlying causes of pain and dysfunction rather than merely addressing the symptoms. The therapist assesses the client's condition and applies appropriate techniques to promote muscle relaxation, improve circulation, and enhance overall well-being.

By relieving muscle tension, breaking up fibrotic tissue, stimulating blood flow and making joints more mobile, remedial massage will help in balancing the length, tone and tension of muscles and tendons, improving your range of motion, restoring the correct position of the bones and joints, increasing blood flow and helping to speed up the body’s own healing process after an injury.

Problems with muscles can often trigger or radiate pain to other parts of the body.

Remedial massage’s aim is to trace the original source of pain and work on relieving the cause of the problem and its symptoms.
