How is Remedial Massage Different to Relaxation Massage?

A relaxation massage focuses on helping you de-stress from the pressures of daily life. The massage techniques used are gentle in nature and designed to help soothe and relax your body. Long, smooth flowing strokes are characteristic of this type of massage.

What we offer is very different. Remedial massage is designed to go deep into the musculoskeletal system and bring the body back into alignment. If you’re experiencing tension, pain or injury in your body, remedial massage is a better option for your needs.

Your remedial massage therapist will assess where you need treatment and what may be causing pain. The treatments will likely involve deep tissue work for short periods of time. Many conditions can be eased with remedial massage treatments including:

Pregnancy related aches and pain
C-section scar treatment
Sciatica
Chronic pain
Carpal tunnel
Stiff neck, shoulders or back
Sports injuries

While both types of massage have many benefits, remedial is more suitable to promote healing and returning your body back to it’s regular function after injury or pregnancy.
