Remedial Massage Therapy
The way to keep your health and personal well-being a priority
Remedial massage therapy
The way to a successful health strategy
Massage therapy is quite different to what you may have experienced in a day spa or with a beauty therapist which involves many light gentle strokes that the therapist usually does quite slowly.
The purpose of a relaxation massage is to relax the person and not to eliminate tight knots or adhesion’s in the body.
A remedial massage treatment will involve a far more clinical approach to your problems and challenges because the remedial therapist is qualified to find where your muscle tension or limited movement is coming from.
Remedial massage therapy involves deep or shallow stokes depending on what your muscles need. The massage therapist relaxes and de-activates the areas that are contributing to your pain, allowing your muscles to function properly.
Pain or tightness in the body can disrupt the natural order of your bodily function (correct muscle activation pattern) – which over the long-term, if untreated, can lead to more serious injuries.

Dry needling or myofascial trigger point dry needling, is a technique which is similar to acupuncture. Dry needling is sometimes also known as intramuscular stimulation.
Dry needling often provides relief for muscular pain and stiffness. In addition this methodology eases the trigger points sometimes improving flexibility and increasing range of motion. Dry needling is often used to treat sports injuries, inflammation of fibrous connective tissue typically affecting the shoulders and back which causes stiffness and pain.
Cupping is a process which increases blood circulation to the areas where the cups are placed. This can result in relieving muscle tension, which also can improve the overall blood flow and promote cellular repair. It can also help to form new connective tissues and create extra new blood vessels in the tissue.
Yes it’s great because of the techniques used in remedial massage therapy to assist in the rehabilitation and healing process.
A Trigger point is a sensitive area in the muscle or connective tissue (fascia) that is located when pressure is applied. Trigger points can also be a point from which pain radiates throughout the muscle and fascia causing myofascial pain syndromes and referred and transferred pain. This therapy releases the muscle and relieves the associated pain.
Manual lymphatic drainage is a type of massage based on the
hypothesis that it will encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart.
This technique is designed to stimulate the flow of lymph (a fluid that transports white blood cells, oxygen, and nutrients to tissues throughout the body). This therapy typically involves gentle, circular movements and stimulates the lymphatic nodes to cause the toxins in your body to be carried out through the urinal tract.
Myofascial release is a physical therapy sometimes used to treat myofascial pain syndrome. Myofascial pain syndrome is a chronic pain disorder which is caused by tightness and sensitivity in your myofascial tissues. These myofascial tissues support and surround the muscles throughout your body.
Ideally it depends on your need but once a week or even fortnight is often recommended. This keeps you supple and flexible and helps maintain muscle health. If you are not getting enough exercise or you are spending long hours sitting at your computer you may be causing neck and should er pain that massage can relieve.
Left unattended neck and back pain can escalate and cause damage.
