Remedial Massage
Remedial massage is one of the clinical styles of massage. To do it properly a thorough knowledge of western medical sciences is necessary. Remedial massage is interested in the why and how of an injury or complaint. Did you injure yourself or has it been slowly progressing to this stage? In what way does your complaint restrict movement?

Remedial Massage utilises a clinical approach to massage therapy. A full patient history and an assessmemt of the complaint is made using observation, palpation and range of movement - then the soft tissue related to the complaint is massaged and usually stretched. A good understanding of bio-mechanics in remedial massage is a must. Conditions such as RSI, Frozen Shoulder, sports injuries all fall under the conditions treated by Remedial Massage Therapy.
