Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between remedial massage and 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 commonly uses broader, smoother strokes to promote general stress relief. While it may offer some benefit for tight muscles, it is less likely to support your overall health. Our Hastings therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may work to address underlying concerns.
Can massage help treat 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 Hastings clinic for convenient on-the-spot claiming.
