How is Remedial Massage Done?

Remedial massage is performed using a combination of techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and stretching. The therapist first assesses the affected area and then applies targeted pressure and movements to release tension, break down adhesions, and restore mobility. The pressure can be gentle or firm, depending on the individual's needs and pain tolerance.

What Techniques Are Used?

Remedial massage incorporates various techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and stretching. Therapists may also use tools such as massage balls, cupping therapy, dry needling, scraping, heat packs, and percussion devices to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. These methods help release muscle knots, improve circulation, and accelerate healing.
