What sets remedial massage apart from deep tissue massage?
Both approaches address the deeper layers of muscle, however remedial massage takes a more clinical approach, assessing the root cause of your discomfort and tailoring each session accordingly.
Deep tissue massage typically focuses on using sustained pressure to help release tension, while remedial massage may incorporate a wider range of techniques.
What types of injuries may remedial massage help with?
What should I anticipate during my first remedial massage session?
Your qualified therapist will review your medical history before your session to understand your needs and any areas of concern. From there, they will aim to develop a treatment plan tailored to your goals.
Sessions generally involve a combination of massage techniques suited to your condition, applied with varying pressure depending on the area being addressed.
What methods do your massage therapists use during a session?
Our massage therapists utilise a range of techniques, including myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and deep tissue work.
They also apply appropriate lubricants and movements, adjusting each session to suit your individual needs and clinical requirements. No two sessions are exactly alike.
Who is sports massage therapy suitable for?
Sports massage isn’t just for elite athletes; it’s generally suitable for active people of all ages and levels. Whether you’re a weekend runner, a gym regular, or a competitive sportsperson, you may find sports massage therapy helpful.
Can remedial massage help address scar tissue?
For some people, remedial massage techniques may help address scar tissue by supporting improved flexibility in the surrounding connective tissue and helping to reduce restricted movement. This may be particularly worthwhile during injury recovery or following surgery.
How frequently should I book a remedial massage appointment?
This depends on your individual needs and goals. For those managing chronic pain conditions or recovering from injury, more frequent sessions may be recommended initially.
As your condition improves, your remedial massage therapist will work alongside you to develop a maintenance schedule that supports your ongoing well-being and physical activity.
