REMEDIAL MASSAGE
A skilled massage therapist can use remedial massage to help your body in many different ways. Remedial massage is a deep massage specifically designed to help those with injuries or muscular-skeletal disorders. The treatment focuses on the soft tissues in the body including the tendons, ligaments, fascia, muscles and skin. Chronic pain and injuries often benefit greatly from a deep tissue massage like remedial massage, which can help speed recovery from injury and encourage healing.
Your massage therapist will use his or her fingers, hands, elbows, and forearms to manipulate your soft tissue in a therapeutic manner. This treatment achieves everything from boosting circulation and joint functionality to helping with relaxation.
Remedial massage in Brisbane is aimed at providing relief to those suffering from injuries and muscular-skeletal disorders. By focusing on the soft tissues of the body, the massage promotes healing process and speeds up recovery.
Massage therapists who are experienced performing remedial massage know from past experience what to look for in an injury or problem. They also have an understanding for how best to go about improving a wide variety of issues. Even one session can be beneficial. Many people, including athletes, use remedial massage for many different kinds of injury ranging from tennis elbow and carpel tunnel syndrome to Achilles tendon and hamstring injuries.
If you are suffering from an injury that just won’t heal, there are steps you can take. Switching to a low inflammation diet, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Massage are three key ways that inflammation and pain can be reduced. Since the Brisbane Livewell Clinic has many experts all under one roof, it is possible for us to effectively treat problematic injuries, chronic pain and more.
Please note that HCF and Medibank have recently changed their requirements for claiming on remedial massage. These health funds member are currently not able to claim at Brisbane Livewell Clinic for remedial massage only. This does not affect any other modalities.
