Remedial Massage, also known as Therapeutic Massage is the therapy to go for if you are looking for a focused massage treatment that eases specific aches or pains, restrictions or dysfunction. These can occur due to your work arrangements, hobbies, stress, accident, injury, illness or disease. Remedial Massage can also release tight muscles that create nerve issues due to that tightness pressing on a nerve and causing heaviness, pin & needles, tingling, pain, numbness or lack of sensation over the length of the relevant nerve pathway.

 

In essence a large range of techniques used in Remedial Massage are identical to those used in sports massage. However, Sports Massage as a term is often confusing to people seeking treatment as it sounds only relevant to people who play sports or whose issues occurred through going to the gym.

 

The terms Remedial Massage and Therapeutic Massage came in to being in some ways to try to address this confusion so I personally use the terms Remedial Massage to describe a 'Sports Massage for the non sporty!'

 

All techniques undertaken and advice provided to you will be based on your specific situation however your issues have come about. So if you are non sporty or your issue is not related to sport or exercise feel free to book in for a Remedial Massage and know you are in the right hands to get you back to functioning optimally.
