How Remedial Massage Could Support Your Recovery
One of the primary benefits of remedial massage is its potential to provide targeted relief.
Our therapists focus on specific areas (known as trigger points), deep muscle tension, and dysfunction, with the aim of helping to reduce pain, improve muscle function, and enhance flexibility.
As a proactive strategy, regular massage may assist in managing chronic conditions, reducing the likelihood of injury, and maintaining your physical health, potentially allowing you to embrace an active lifestyle on the Mornington Peninsula with greater comfort and ease.

Questions We Are Often Asked About Remedial Massage
What is the difference between remedial massage and a relaxation massage?
While both may help to ease tension and promote relaxation, remedial massage therapy is a clinical treatment designed to address specific muscular issues or injuries, using advanced techniques in an effort to stimulate circulation, engage deep tissue, and support your recovery.
A relaxation massage typically employs broader, smoother strokes to provide overall stress relief. While it may assist with tight muscles, it is less likely to support your overall health. Our Botanic Ridge therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may attend to underlying concerns.
Can remedial massage help manage nerve pain?
Many people find that the sustained pressure techniques used in remedial massage may help relieve nerve pain, reduce muscular tension, and improve movement. Your physiotherapist will focus on the underlying cause while also guiding you with self-care options you may explore in your everyday life.
Can remedial massage be claimed through private health insurance?
Yes, in most cases you can. Our remedial massage therapists are registered with all major private health funds. Should your extras cover include remedial massage, you can claim a rebate. Our Botanic Ridge clinic offers HICAPS facilities for easy on-the-spot claiming.
What other concerns do you work with?
