What is the difference between remedial and 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 typically focuses on using sustained pressure to help release tension, while remedial massage may incorporate a wider range of techniques.
What kinds of injuries may remedial massage help address?
What should I expect during my first remedial massage session?
Before your session, your qualified therapist will review your medical history to gain an understanding of your needs and any areas of concern. From there, they will aim to put together a treatment plan tailored to your goals.
Sessions will generally draw on a combination of massage techniques suited to your condition, with varying pressure applied depending on the area being addressed.
What methods do your massage therapists use during a session?
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.
Is sports massage therapy suitable for me?
Sports massage is not just for elite athletes; it’s generally suited to active people of all ages and levels. Whether you’re a weekend runner, a gym regular, or a competitive sportsperson, sports massage therapy may have something to offer you.
May remedial massage help with scar tissue?
For some individuals, remedial massage techniques may help soften scar tissue, improve the flexibility of the surrounding connective tissue, and help reduce restricted movement. This may be particularly useful during injury recovery or following surgery.
How often should I schedule 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 collaborate with you to find a maintenance schedule that best supports your ongoing well-being and physical activity.
