Common Questions About Remedial Massage
How does remedial massage differ from a relaxation massage?
Both approaches may help reduce tension and encourage relaxation, however remedial massage therapy is a clinical treatment focused on attending to specific muscular issues or injuries. It uses advanced techniques in an effort to improve circulation, target deep tissue, and assist your recovery.
Generally speaking, a relaxation massage uses broader, smoother strokes aimed at overall stress relief. While it may provide some assistance with tight muscles, it is less likely to support your overall health. Our Patterson Lakes therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may help address underlying problems.
Is massage beneficial for 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 I claim remedial massage on my private health insurance?
In most cases, yes. Our remedial massage therapists are registered with all major private health funds. If your extras cover includes remedial massage, you may be eligible to claim a rebate. We provide HICAPS facilities at our Patterson Lakes clinic for convenient on-the-spot claiming.
