What is Remedial Massage Therapy?

Remedial Massage incorporates different therapeutic massage methods, each aimed at addressing specific health concerns. It’s not just a relaxing experience—it’s designed to target and treat problem areas in the muscles and soft tissues. Whether you’re suffering from tension, recovering from an injury, or managing chronic discomfort, Remedial Massage can aid in your recovery and contribute to better overall well-being.

With our team-focused approach to your health, we may integrate one or more of these specific massage therapies into your treatment plan. Our objective is to offer personalised care that meets your unique needs, helping you achieve optimal health.

Our Range of Massage Treatments

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.

Each muscle has potential trigger points that may be activated by overuse, trauma, electrolyte imbalances, nerve pain, stress, or inflammation. These points can create pain within the affected muscle or send 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 therapeutic approach that targets the myofascial tissues, the resilient membranes surrounding and supporting your muscles and bones, which play a key role in maintaining 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 tailored for athletes and those who push their bodies to the limit. It focuses on areas that endure strain from repetitive or high-intensity movements, which are typical in sports and demanding physical activities. Each session is customised to meet the individual’s needs and the specific sport they engage in, addressing tension and stress in the most affected regions. Sports Massage can assist with recovery, injury prevention, and treating current problems related to physical exertion.

Relaxation Massage

Relaxation Massage is a soothing treatment designed to promote relaxation, improve circulation, and relieve built-up tension in the body. The pressure can be adjusted to suit your preferences, whether you prefer a lighter touch or deeper pressure. This type of massage is perfect for calming both the mind and body, allowing you to unwind and take time for yourself.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy Massage is an excellent option for easing tension, reducing discomfort, boosting circulation, and getting the body ready for birth. We offer a special pregnancy pillow for our wonderful pregnant clients, or the massage can be done while you lie on your side or sit comfortably. Your safety and comfort are always our top priority! If you have concerns or questions about pregnancy massage, we are happy to chat with you—please feel free to call us to discuss this further.

Myotherapy

Myotherapy incorporates all the skills and techniques of a remedial massage therapist, with the added benefit of advanced qualifications that allow for a broader range of treatments. These include specialised techniques such as dry needling, cupping, hot and cold therapy and TENS. Myotherapists also have extensive knowledge of exercises to help strengthen or stretch muscles, tailored to your specific needs. At Mt Eliza Family Chiropractic, our Myotherapists focus on improving your overall muscle function, helping you move better and feel your best.
