Remedial and Relaxation Massage
What’s the Difference Between Remedial and Relaxation Massage?
Ever wanted a massage but couldn’t decide whether you needed a remedial treatment or simply a refreshing and stress reducing relaxation session? Well here is an explanation to help you decide exactly what you want.
Relaxation Massage
A relaxation massage helps de-stress and loosen up your body and is great for those who have had a hard working week or feel like treating themselves to some TCL! The treatment consists of flowing strokes, kneading and gentle manipulations of the muscles performed at your chosen pressure. It is a pain free way to relax both your muscles and your mind.
Remedial Massage
If you have particular muscle tension or chronic paid a remedial massage may be for you. Your remedial massage therapist will assess where you need treatment and what may be causing your pain. They will perform some tests to see exactly which muscles are giving you trouble and will tailor a treatment plan to suit. The treatment itself may involve deep tissue work for short periods of time, but the results are definitely worth it.
Conditions such as sciatica, carpal tunnel, stiff necks, headaches, sports injuries and many more can be eased with a remedial treatment.
