How Remedial Massage Could Support Your Recovery
Remedial massage is centred around providing targeted relief to areas of concern.
Through attention to specific areas (known as trigger points), deep muscle tension, and dysfunction, our therapists may assist in reducing pain, improving muscle function, and enhancing flexibility.

Common Questions About Remedial Massage
How does remedial massage differ from a relaxation massage?
Although both may assist in reducing tension and promoting relaxation, remedial massage therapy is a clinical treatment aimed at addressing specific muscular issues or injuries. It employs advanced techniques in an effort to stimulate circulation, work with deep tissue, and support your recovery.
A relaxation massage generally uses broader, smoother strokes for overall stress relief. While it may help with tight muscles, it is less likely to support your overall health. Our Carrum Downs therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may address underlying problems.
Can remedial massage help manage 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.
Is remedial massage claimable on 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 Carrum Downs clinic offers HICAPS facilities for easy on-the-spot claiming.
