Remedial Massage

Feel invigorated and stress-free with remedial massage, while getting those knots and niggles worked out.

Remedial massage is widely regarded as a scientific and powerful form of manual soft tissue therapy.  Remedial Massage effectively reduces your pain and restores function to your muscles, nerves, fascia and other connective tissues. In addition to this, it enhances other systems in your body, which may have been impaired due to injury, dysfunction or overuse.
Remedial massage is often thought of as a massage that is really hard and deep, but this is simply not the case.

The official definition of remedial massage is:
“a massage that includes the assessment and treatment of dysfunction, supported by a treatment plan and documented treatment notes”.

While there may be some deep tissue work in your massage, deep tissue massage is simply a technique that is used to treat, and should be used in combination with several other techniques which may include;

• Dry needling
• Taping
• Exercise
• Heat
• Aromatherapy

This variety will improve the integrity and function of both muscles and your body as a whole, so you can immediately begin to feel the positive, powerful changes that so many of our clients enjoy every day.

An initial remedial massage appointment is usually 60 minutes, however, we do recommend 90 minutes for a more comprehensive session. Your initial consultation will involve a short consultation and assessment followed by the treatment. Following your initial massage you may choose to have 30-minute appointments, however, most of our clients feel that 60-90 minutes gives them a better outcome.
