What happens during a remedial massage?
Our remedial specialists have a broad knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology which they use to determine a clients treatment needs. That treatment plan will be based on best practice principles, and before each session begins the therapist will perform an assessment to gain helpful information on both past and present injuries & treatments to ensure the client gets the most out of their current appointment. Our aim is to find & treat the cause of the problem as well as the symptoms. Specialised deep tissue techniques are then used to focus on the deeper layers of muscle tissue. This releases the acute or chronic patterns of tension in the body through direct deep pressure and slow strokes on the contracted areas, either following along the fibres of the muscles or tendons, ligaments and around the joints.
