What is Remedial Massage?

Remedial Massage is a way of repairing muscles and tendons damaged through over use, trauma and bad posture. Remedial massage involves a number of applied techniques involving first an assessment to see if the problem is biomechanical. Then the use of deep tissue, joint mobs, friction massage for the break up of scar tissue. Ice massage, trigger points, Myotherapy, and longitudinal strokes on shortened and tight muscles are then used to allow proper function and restore muscle strength. Again with this treatment we don’t just treat the symptoms but also the cause.
