Remedial massage
Remedial Massage is a deep massage done by a trained massage therapist, to create the conditions for the body’s return to normal health after injury or with muscular-skeletal disorders. It is used to treat chronic muscular-skeletal imbalances, strains, sprains, broken bones, bruising or any injury where the skin is intact. Deep tissue massage removes blockages, damaged cells, scar tissue and adhesions left after injury, speeds up recovery and encourages more complete healing. Remedial massage is also used for conditions created by lifestyle for example Repetitive strain injury and Back pain. It is designed to increase the flow of blood particularly in the injured areas. As with all treatment types, a detailed history is taken, followed by testing and assessment after which a treatment plan is proposed specifically designed to cater for the needs of the patient. Where possible, ongoing monitoring takes place and if required alterations to the treatment plan are made to affect the greatest response for the patient.
