Remedial Massage

 A Focused Approach to Pain Relief and Rehabilitation

Remedial Massage is a therapeutic treatment designed to address specific muscular issues, injuries, and long-term discomfort. Using a combination of targeted techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release, this treatment aims to restore proper muscle function, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. Whether you’re dealing with an injury, muscle tension, or chronic pain, remedial massage helps to treat the root cause of the problem, rather than just alleviating symptoms.

What to Expect from a Remedial Massage

During a remedial massage session, your therapist will perform a thorough assessment of your condition, focusing on muscle groups that may be tight, inflamed, or dysfunctional. The therapist will then use a combination of specific techniques tailored to your needs, working deeply into the tissues to address muscular imbalances and promote healing.

Remedial Massage is ideal for:
   

• Treating musculoskeletal injuries – Ideal for those recovering from sprains, strains, or soft tissue injuries.

• Managing chronic pain – Focuses on long-term pain relief from conditions such as back pain, sciatica, and arthritis.

• Improving posture and flexibility – Helps to restore balance to muscles that are overused or underused.

• Injury rehabilitation – Aids recovery by improving circulation and reducing muscle tightness.
  
  Preparing for Your Remedial Massage
  
  To get the best results from your treatment:
   

• Communicate openly with your therapist about your specific concerns, injuries, or pain areas.

• Stay hydrated – This helps to flush out toxins and reduce muscle soreness after the treatment.

• Wear loose, comfortable clothing – This will allow your therapist to work on areas of tension and discomfort more easily.

Enhancing Your Experience

For the most effective results from your Remedial Massage:

• Relax and breathe deeply – Focusing on deep, slow breaths can help release muscle tension and enhance relaxation.

• Allow your therapist to adjust pressure – Remedial massage often involves deeper pressure, so be sure to let your therapist know if the pressure is too intense or not enough.

• Listen to your body – The therapist will focus on areas that are tight or inflamed, so pay attention to any discomfort and provide feedback.

After Your Massage

To ensure you get the most benefit from your Remedial Massage:

​

• Drink plenty of water – This helps flush out toxins and aids muscle recovery.

• Take it easy for the rest of the day – Avoid strenuous activity and allow your body time to heal.

• Rest and recover – Your muscles may feel tender after the treatment, but any soreness should subside within 24-48 hours.
