What is Remedial Massage Therapy?

Remedial massage is the systematic assessment and treatment of the muscle, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues of the body to assist in rehabilitation, pain and injury management.

Remedial massage is used to locate and repair damaged areas of the body and speed up the body’s own healing processes. The pressure applied in this healing treatment is tailored to the individual’s preference and the issue being treated.

Problems with the muscles can trigger or radiate pain to other parts of the body. Remedial massage aims to trace the original reason for the pain, tackling both the cause of the problem and the symptoms.

Remedial massage can stimulate the blood supply, make joints more mobile and help to repair damage tissues. Easing and stabilising the muscles may improve problems such as headaches, back pain and sciatic pain (to name a few)

Remedial massage can also be used in conjunction with Chiropractic care for optimal results.
