About Remedial Massage
Remedial massage is a targeted therapy aimed at addressing muscle pain, injuries, and musculoskeletal problems by using techniques like deep pressure, stretching, and friction. This treatment focuses on specific body areas to relieve muscle stiffness, restore range of motion, and accelerate muscle recovery.
Key Benefits of Remedial Massage:
- Pain and Injury Recovery: Helps with sports injuries, muscle strain, and soft tissue injuries.
- Muscle Relaxation: Eases tension and tightness caused by poor posture or overuse.
- Improved Flexibility: Restores mobility and range of motion to stiff or injured muscles.
- Chronic Pain Management: Effective for managing chronic muscle pain or discomfort.
- Postural Correction: Helps address muscle imbalances caused by poor posture or repetitive strain.
How It’s Different
Unlike a general relaxation massage, remedial massage starts with an assessment of your posture, movement and pain points, so your therapist can target the specific muscles or joints causing the problem. It’s often recommended after an injury, for repetitive strain from work or sport, or if you’ve been referred by a physiotherapist or GP. Many private health funds offer rebates for remedial massage — check with your provider before booking.
Many clients also combine remedial massage with cupping therapy for extra relief in tight or inflamed areas.
