How does remedial massage differ from deep tissue massage?
Both address the deeper layers of muscle, but remedial massage takes a more clinical approach, assessing the root cause of your discomfort and tailoring treatment 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 kinds of injuries may remedial massage help address?
What should I expect during my first remedial massage session?
Your qualified therapist will take the time to review your medical history before your session, helping them understand your needs and any areas of concern. From there, they will aim to develop a personalised 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 utilise 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 assist in softening scar tissue, supporting greater flexibility in the surrounding connective tissue, and helping to reduce restricted movement. This may be especially beneficial during injury recovery or following surgery.
How frequently 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.
