What is Remedial Massage?
Remedial massage is a targeted, therapeutic style of massage designed to help relieve pain, tension, and dysfunction in your muscles and soft tissues. Whether you’re dealing with a nagging injury, postural tightness, or just feel like your body isn’t moving quite right—remedial massage aims to get things back on track.
Each session starts with a quick chat and assessment to understand what’s going on in your body. From there, we tailor the treatment using techniques like deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and gentle stretching. It’s all about finding and treating the root of the problem—not just the symptoms. You’ll leave feeling looser, lighter, and often with a few handy tips or exercises to support your recovery.
