REMEDIAL MASSAGE
Remedial massage is a therapeutic approach that targets specific issues within the musculoskeletal system. It's not just about relaxation—this massage technique is designed to identify and address the root cause of pain, tension, or injury. By using deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, and stretching, remedial massage helps alleviate discomfort, improve mobility, and support the body's natural healing process.
Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or seeking to correct postural imbalances, remedial massage offers a personalised solution to help you feel and function at your best.

Benefits of Remedial Massage for injury recovery and general wellbeing
​​
Remedial massage enhances injury recovery by improving circulation and promoting tissue regeneration, making it particularly beneficial for sports injuries or post-surgery recovery. Additionally, it improves mobility by releasing tight muscles and correcting imbalances, allowing for greater ease of movement. Remedial massage can also support posture, by reducing strain on muscles and joints, while helping to prevent future discomfort. Beyond its physical benefits, remedial massage reduces both physical and mental stress, fostering a sense of deep relaxation. By invigorating blood flow, it enhances circulation, ensuring that tissues receive essential oxygen and nutrients, which supports overall health. Regular treatments can even help prevent injuries by maintaining muscle health and flexibility, making remedial massage a proactive approach to sustaining your body’s health and vitality.

Essential steps to self care after a Remedial Massage session
​
It's important to care for your body to maximise the benefits of remedial massage. Drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins released during the massage and to keep your muscles hydrated. Rest is also essential; give your body time to recover and integrate the work done during the session—avoiding strenuous activities for at least 24 hours to allow your muscles to heal and adjust. Gentle stretching can help maintain the flexibility gained and prevent stiffness.
Lastly, pay attention to your body—if you experience any lingering discomfort or soreness, consider following up with your therapist for additional guidance or treatment. Taking these steps will help you fully enjoy the lasting benefits of your remedial massage.
