Remedial Massage is a broad term to describe a number of different massage techniques including Sports Massage, Deep Tissue, Lymphatic Drainage, and Myofacial release.

All of these treatments aim to increase circulation of blood, oxygen and lymphatic fluid throughout muscles. Muscles under stress and tension experience a limitation in movement and function and benefit from having the circulation restored.

Remedial Massage incorporates the physiology of sports movement and focuses on correcting, improving or recovering a muscle for sports activity.  Treatment involves massage of the muscle, assisted stretching and assisted mobility of the muscle.

Exercises are recommended to continue to assist in recovery and maintenance between treatments.

Past injuries can be treated with massage by enabling the muscle and surrounding body systems to improve blood flow, improve the elimination of muscular toxins. Lactic acid build up and lymphatic drainage from an area experiencing stress.

This can be during training in preparation for an event like a triathlon or marathon race or in recovery post event. As a result, an injury or strain is encouraged to heal quicker and return to a point of health and stability sooner.

Where incorrect position or use over time has caused muscle shortening or incorrect thickening of muscle associated structures, massage can help to focus the muscle and retrain it to correct position and movement.

Remedial massage is useful where there has been no specific event or injury, but a build up over time which reveals itself as incorrect posture, limitation of movement or pain or loss of sensation to a particular area.

The focus of each treatment is on you as an individual and the specific needs of your body. Glenn can work in conjunction with your Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist or Doctor to enable the best possible recovery and outcome for you
