Remedial Massage

What is Remedial Massage?

When muscles become knotted and tense or damaged, remedial massage provides
a healing treatment that can be gentle or strong, deep or shallow. Remedial massage therapy holistically treats the body.
The massage therapist endeavours to identify the original biomechanical dysfunction, thus healing the cause of the disorder,
as well as the symptoms.

Remedial massage uses several specialised techniques to locate and repair damage to muscles, tendons and joints.
Massage therapy supports and speeds up the body’s own repair mechanisms. A lubricating medium (usually oil) is applied
directly on the skin to ensure that the muscles associated with the disorder are deeply penetrated.
Passive joint stretching moves are also used.

Benefits of Remedial Massage Therapy

Key benefits of remedial massage include the stimulation of the blood supply allowing toxins in the muscles to be removed,
the calming of the peripheral nervous system to ease pain and discomfort and the toning and relaxing of muscles to improve
joint mobility. An improvement to the health of the cells, repairing of tissues, and the easing of stiffness and tension can also
be experienced through therapeutic relaxation.
