In today’s fast-paced world, ongoing muscle tension, stress, and postural strain are common. While a single massage offers temporary relief, regular remedial sessions provide deeper, long-lasting benefits for your physical and mental well-being.
Myotherapy and Remedial Massage are targeted, evidence-based treatments designed to address musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. When received consistently, they are powerful tools for maintaining your health and resilience.
Key Benefits of Consistent Care:
- Reduces Muscle Tension and Pain: Regular sessions release tight muscles and trigger points, improving flexibility and preventing minor discomfort from becoming chronic pain.
- Improves Posture and Movement: We help restore proper muscle function and joint mobility, counteracting the strain caused by desk work or physical labour.
- Supports Injury Recovery and Prevention: Improved blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues support healing, reduce inflammation, and maintain muscle health.
- Enhances Circulation: Consistent massage aids lymphatic drainage and nutrient delivery, helping the body remove waste products and reducing fatigue.
- Supports Mental Wellbeing: Regular sessions calm the nervous system, reduce stress hormones, and promote better sleep and mood.
Remedial Massage During Pregnancy
Massage is incredibly beneficial during pregnancy when provided by trained practitioners.
- Remedial Massage Therapists: Available from 12 weeks onwards to relieve tension and swelling
- Myotherapists: Available at any stage of pregnancy, including the first trimester, for advanced assessment and treatment.
For your comfort, we offer specialised positioning options, including supportive cushions.
Remedial Massage vs. Myotherapy
- Remedial Massage Therapists focus on hands-on treatment of soft tissues using deep tissue techniques and stretching. This is ideal for general tension and maintenance.
- Myotherapists have advanced training in clinical assessment and rehabilitation. They may incorporate dry needling, cupping, and corrective exercises, making them well-suited for complex or persistent pain.
