Remedial massage therapy is a targeted treatment that aims to address muscle pain, release tension, and support recovery. At Therapia, our dedicated team of remedial massage therapists offers personalised care designed to help you move, feel, and live better.

What is the difference between a remedial massage and a deep tissue massage?
While both address the deeper layers of muscle, remedial massage takes a more clinical approach, assessing the underlying cause of your discomfort and adapting treatment to suit your needs.
Deep tissue massage generally focuses on applying sustained pressure to release tension, whereas remedial massage may draw on a broader range of techniques.
Which types of injuries may remedial massage help manage?
What happens 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 typically involve a combination of massage techniques typically suited to your condition, applied with varying pressure depending on the area being addressed.
Which massage techniques do your therapists use?
Our massage therapists apply a range of techniques, including myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and deep tissue work.
They also use suitable lubricants and movements, tailoring each session to your individual needs and clinical requirements. No two sessions are exactly the same.
Who is sports massage therapy designed for?
Sports massage isn’t exclusively for elite athletes; it’s generally appropriate for active people of all ages and fitness levels. Whether you’re a weekend runner, a gym regular, or a competitive sportsperson, you may find that sports massage therapy supports your needs.
Can remedial massage help treat scar tissue?
For some people, remedial massage techniques may help soften scar tissue, improve the flexibility of the surrounding connective tissue, and reduce restricted movement. This may be particularly helpful during injury recovery or following surgery.
How often should I book a remedial massage appointment?
The frequency of your sessions will depend on your individual needs and goals. For those managing chronic pain conditions or recovering from injury, more frequent sessions may be advisable initially.
As your condition improves, your remedial massage therapist will collaborate with you to find a maintenance schedule that best supports your ongoing well-being and physical activity.
