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 generally focuses on applying sustained pressure to release tension, whereas remedial massage may draw on a broader range of techniques.
What types of injuries may remedial massage help with?
What should I expect during my first remedial massage session?
Your qualified therapist will go through your medical history prior to your session to better understand your needs and any areas of concern. From there, they will aim to develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual 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 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 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 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?
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.
