What is a Remedial Massage?

Remedial massage is for people wanting a more targeted, specific result. It combines techniques including deep tissue, trigger point release and stretching.

The focus will be on a specific area, complaint/injury rather than an all-over body treatment. Your therapist may recommend cupping or dry needling to assist with the treatment.

Before the massage, we complete an assessment to discuss the treatment plan, expected results, and outcome.

What’s involved in a remedial massage treatment?

Remedial massage therapists are trained in multiple techniques to assist in various conditions. After a comprehensive consultation, the therapist will determine how to treat your requirement best and which treatments you require.
