Remedial massage is a type of therapeutic massage that aims to address specific issues and alleviate pain or discomfort in the body.
Unlike relaxation massage, which primarily focuses on providing relaxation, a remedial massage targets underlying muscular and soft tissue problems to improve overall physical well-being.
Our massages are completed by qualified osteopaths who hold a masters degrees in anatomy and physiology.
Here's some information about remedial massage and its benefits:
- Targeted Treatment: Remedial massage therapists use techniques like deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, stretching, and joint mobilisation to address specific muscular issues, injuries, or dysfunctions.
- Pain Relief: Alleviates muscle soreness, stiffness, and discomfort, providing relief for chronic conditions such as back pain, neck pain, sciatica, and headaches.
- Improved Range of Motion: Releases tension in muscles and enhances joint mobility, facilitating better movement and flexibility, especially beneficial for athletes and injury recovery.
- Injury Rehabilitation: Promotes faster healing by increasing blood circulation to the injured area, delivering oxygen and nutrients while aiding in the removal of waste products and toxins.
- Stress Reduction: Induces relaxation, reduces stress levels, promotes a sense of well-being, and improves overall mental health.
- Postural Improvement: Helps correct postural issues by releasing tight muscles, realigning the body, and improving muscle balance.
- Enhanced Circulation: Stimulates the circulatory system, promoting better blood flow throughout the body, which aids in healing, toxin removal, and overall vitality.
- Preventive Maintenance: Regular sessions help prevent the recurrence of muscular injuries or chronic conditions by addressing underlying issues and maintaining optimal muscle function and flexibility.
