What is Remedial Massage Therapy?

Remedial Massage involves a range of therapeutic massage techniques, each designed to address specific health needs. This type of massage is not just about relaxation—it’s focused on targeting and treating areas of discomfort or dysfunction in your muscles and soft tissues. Whether you’re dealing with tension, injury, or chronic pain, Remedial Massage can play a key role in your recovery and overall well-being.

In our collaborative approach to your health, we may include one or more of these tailored massage therapies in your treatment plan. Our aim is to deliver customised care that addresses your individual needs, supporting your overall well-being.

The Different Types of Massage We Provide

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger point therapy involves applying direct pressure to targeted areas within the muscle tissue as part of a remedial massage, aimed at easing muscle tension and reducing pain.

All muscles have potential trigger points which can be turned on by muscle overuse, trauma, electrolyte imbalances, nerve pain, stress and inflammation. These trigger points can cause pain in the muscle affected and/or refer pain to other areas of the body.

Trigger Point Therapy (TPT) is widely recognised as a helpful treatment for pain and is beneficial for many individuals.

Trigger Point Therapy can help with:

• Sports injuries
• Neck pain
• Shoulder pain
• Sciatica
• Headaches
• Muscular pain
• Knee pain
• Shin Splints
• Lower back pain

Myofascial Release Therapy

Myofascial Release is a therapy that focuses on the myofascial tissues, which are the strong membranes surrounding, connecting, and supporting your muscles and bones. These tissues are crucial for the structure and function of your musculoskeletal system.

In a treatment session, the therapist identifies spots where the tissues are tight or restricted, rather than fluid and mobile. Through slow, steady pressure, the aim is to release the tension and restore the natural flexibility and strength of the tissues in question.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep Tissue Massage targets the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, making it a valuable approach for addressing chronic muscle tension, stiffness, and injury. Through slow, steady pressure, this method helps relieve tension in the muscles and tendons, encouraging improved mobility and easing pain. It’s frequently used to treat discomfort from overuse, injury, or stress, making it suitable for both athletes and everyday individuals.

Sports Massage

Sports Massage is intended for athletes and those who regularly put their bodies under high physical strain. The treatment focuses on areas prone to strain from repetitive or strenuous movements, often seen in sports and other physical activities. Every session is customised to fit the individual’s needs and the sport they participate in, with attention on releasing tension and stress in the key areas. Sports Massage can help with recovery, injury prevention, and managing existing stress-related issues.

Relaxation Massage

Relaxation Massage is a gentle therapy aimed at encouraging relaxation, boosting circulation, and easing tension that has accumulated in the body. The pressure can be tailored to your liking, whether you enjoy a softer or firmer approach. This massage is ideal for relaxing both the mind and body, giving you the chance to unwind and focus on self-care.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy Massage is a wonderful way to reduce tension, minimise discomfort, improve circulation, and get the body ready for birth. We offer a special pregnancy pillow for our lovely pregnant clients, or you can enjoy the massage while lying on your side or seated. Your comfort and safety are our top priority! If you have any concerns or questions about pregnancy massage, feel free to contact us—we’re happy to discuss everything further with you.
