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.
Incorporating regular massage into your routine may be a valuable proactive approach to managing chronic conditions, reducing injury risk, and maintaining your physical health, so you may enjoy an active lifestyle on the Mornington Peninsula with greater comfort and ease.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sets remedial massage apart from a relaxation massage?
While both may help reduce tension and encourage relaxation, remedial massage therapy is a clinical treatment focused on addressing specific muscular issues or injuries. It uses advanced techniques in an effort to stimulate circulation, target deep tissue, and encourage 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 Chelsea therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may attend to underlying concerns.
Can massage help treat nerve pain?
The sustained pressure techniques used in remedial massage may help to relieve nerve pain, reduce muscular tension, and improve movement for many people. Your physiotherapist will work on the underlying cause while also offering self-care options you may incorporate into your everyday life.
Am I able to claim remedial massage on my 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 Chelsea clinic offers HICAPS facilities for easy on-the-spot claiming.
What other conditions do you work with?
