What sets remedial massage apart 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.
Which types of injuries may remedial massage help manage?
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 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 draw on 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 reserved for elite athletes; it’s generally suitable for active people of all ages and fitness levels. Whether you’re a weekend runner, a regular gym goer, or a competitive sportsperson, you may find sports massage therapy beneficial.
How may remedial massage help with 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 regularly should I book in for a remedial massage?
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.
