Healing, Medium Pressure Massage
Remedial massage finds and repairs damaged areas of the body. The pain you're feeling in a particular area may not be where the issue is, but maybe triggered by another part of your body. A remedial massage focuses on tracing the original reason for the pain, dealing with both the cause of the problem and the symptoms.
How does it work?
- Assessment: The massage therapist will begin by assessing the client's musculoskeletal system to identify any areas of pain, tension, or dysfunction. This may involve asking questions about the client's medical history, performing a physical examination, and observing the client's posture and movement patterns.
- Treatment: Once the assessment is complete, the massage therapist will use a variety of manual techniques to address the identified areas of pain or dysfunction. These techniques may include deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and stretching. The goal is to help release tension, reduce pain, and improve range of motion.
- Rehabilitation: After the massage session, the therapist may provide exercises or stretches for the client to do at home to help maintain the improvements achieved during the treatment. The therapist may also recommend follow-up sessions to continue addressing any ongoing issues.
Benefits
