Deep Tissue Massage - Remedial
What is Remedial massage?
"The symptoms are not always the cause."
Consultation and examination of the client by an experienced massage therapist will often reveal that the cause of a skeleto-muscular problem is not necessarily where the pain actually is.
Muscle and soft tissue Release, Muscle Energy techniques and Trigger points are used where appropriate along with deep tissue massage to unlock muscle tension. Mobilisation of joints is gently encouraged as the vascular circulation feeds the muscles and tissue. Debris, waste and damaged cells are removed from the site by a stimulated lymphatic system.
Where appropriate Ultrasound can be applied to the afflicted area before the hands-on body work with oil.
Examples of conditions treated:
- Torticollis (wryneck)
- Neck and shoulder girdle problems
- Sprains
- Elbows (tennis & golfers)
- Wrist & finger injuries
- Arthritic knees
- Sciatica
- Psoas muscle imbalance
- Lower back pain
Pre & post event Sports treatments are very beneficial especially when prone to stiffness or cramps.
