Remedial Massage

is a hands-on manual technique for the treatment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues of the body. Assisting in rehabilitation, pain and injury management of the muscles that are damaged, knotted, tense or immobile.

This type of massage involves many deep tissue techniques aimed to manipulate and break down the taut bands within the muscle fibers causing the pain or discomfort. However, for some, this can be very painful, so a more eased in approach can be done to warm up the tissue, and take it layer by layer.  

Others prefer deep firm trigger point focus to relieve the pain more efficiently allowing your therapist to get through more areas time permitting. It’s your treatment though so you lead the directive.

At Sal’s remedial massage is mostly used to accompany the other styles learnt within a myotherapy advanced diploma. Combined they work very well.
