Remedial Massage
Remedial massage uses a variety of therapeutic techniques such as the manipulation of soft tissues, trigger point therapy, myofascial cupping and stretching to promote healing after injuries, relieve pain and reduce muscle tension. The practice of remedial massage is based on the idea that the body has the natural ability to heal itself, and that massage can help to stimulate this process. The therapy is tailored to the individual needs of each client, taking into account their medical history, physical condition, and any existing injuries or conditions.
BENEFITS
Remedial massage can offer a range of benefits for both the body and mind. Some of the key benefits of remedial massage include:
- Pain relief
- Improved Flexibility
- Better Circulation
- Improved Posture
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage is a therapeutic massage that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue in the body. Unlike Swedish massage, which uses long, sweeping strokes to relax muscles and improve circulation, deep tissue massage involves more intense pressure and specific techniques to break up adhesions, knots, and scar tissue.
During a deep tissue massage, the therapist uses their hands, fingers, forearms, and elbows to apply deep pressure to specific areas of the body. The pressure is applied slowly and gradually, allowing the therapist to access deeper layers of muscle tissue without causing discomfort or pain.
BENEFITS
Deep tissue massage can have a range of benefits, including:
- Relieving chronic pain and tension in the muscles
- Improving flexibility and range of motion
- Reducing inflammation and swelling
- Promoting relaxation and stress relief
- Improving posture and alignment

Dry Needling
Myofascial Dry Needling (MDN) is a relatively new and exciting form of treatment available to aid dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system. During this therapy, super-fine filament needles (similar to those used in acupuncture), are inserted into the skin to directly affect the myofascia (muscles and fascia), with the aim of altering dysfunction that has developed. For example, dry needling is commonly used to deactivate hyperirritable areas in skeletal muscle known as trigger points or ‘knots’.
Dry needling can help to restore healthy function to the effected tissues, helping you to feel better, more quickly.
Cupping
A therapeutic cupping treatment involves placing cups, made of silicon, on the skin. A suction gun is used to create a vacuum, and when it is applied to the skin, the tissue is drawn up into the cup. This increases the blood flow, loosens the fascia or connective tissue to stimulate healing.
It is similar to the way deep tissue massage can be used to break up scar tissue and reduce pain.
The cups are often placed on the back, neck, and shoulders or the site of pain. Cupping may cause temporary bruising and soreness, depending upon the degree of suction created by the vacuum and the level of internal stagnation.
BENEFITS
Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This will help relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair. It can also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue.
- Promoting the skin’s blood flow
- Reducing inflamation
- Boosting cellular immunity
