An Introduction to 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.

As part of our team-based approach to your health, we may incorporate one or more of these specialised massage therapies into your treatment plan. Our goal is to provide personalised care that addresses your unique concerns, helping you feel your best.

Our Range of Massage Treatments

Trigger Point Therapy

Trigger point therapy is a remedial massage technique where direct pressure is applied to certain points within the muscle tissue to release tension and alleviate 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 recognised around the world as a helpful treatment for pain and can benefit most people.

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.

During treatment, a therapist identifies areas where the tissues feel tight or restricted, rather than flexible and mobile. By applying slow, steady pressure to these stiff areas, the goal is to release tension and restore the natural flexibility and strength of the affected tissues.

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 calming treatment focused on relieving tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation throughout the body. The pressure level can be adjusted to your preference, whether you want a light or firmer massage. It’s an excellent option for soothing both body and mind, offering you the opportunity to relax and take a break 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.

These may include specialised methods such as dry needling, cupping, hot and cold therapy, and TENS.
