Remedial Massage Therapy

Remedial Massage aims to work through specific postural problems, especially in areas that are painful, not fully functioning, or need some rehabilitation or recovery. Examples of conditions that can be improved with remedial Massage are

  1. Muscular tension and tightness in specific areas of the body, due to things like desk based work.

  2. Chronic pain or discomfort due to poor posture or muscle imbalances.

  3. Limited range of motion in joints caused by muscular restrictions such as Frozen Shoulder.

  4. Headaches or migraines stemming from neck and shoulder tension.

  5. Stress and anxiety relief through targeted massage techniques.

  6. Sports-related injuries or muscle fatigue that need focused treatment.

  7. Repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) from overuse of certain muscle groups.

  8. Postural issues leading to discomfort or reduced mobility.

  9. General muscle stiffness or soreness from physical activity or sedentary lifestyle.

These sessions are designed to assess posture, measure range of movement, pain levels and test for muscle imbalances and weakness, then we work through the issues with massage therapy for functional improvement.

Improvements are measured using specific outcome measurements and results are recorded to monitor improvements. The assessment can take around 15 - 20 minutes.

The massage therapy session will focus on the area of dysfunction and aims to progress the functionality session on session. Assessments may performed each session, but will be quicker as we work through the process and see improvements. If you have any questions about these sessions, please contact Jo to discuss further.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage offers both physical and psychological benefits. It can relieve muscle pain and stiffness and provide stress-relieving relaxation for the body and mind.

Deep tissue massage involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue.

It may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation.

Areas of concern can be focused on during your session for additional recovery benefits.

Unlike other massage techniques that focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage helps to treat muscle pain and improve stiffness. But it can still help to you unwind mentally, too.

Let our therapists guide you to relaxation and tension release with this powerful massage modality.
