How Remedial Massage Could Support Your Recovery
Remedial massage is centred around providing targeted relief to areas of concern.
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.
Regular massage may serve as a worthwhile proactive measure for managing chronic conditions, supporting injury prevention, and maintaining your physical health, helping you to enjoy an active lifestyle on the Mornington Peninsula with greater comfort and ease.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a 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 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 Mornington therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may address underlying problems.
Is massage beneficial for nerve pain?
Many people find that the sustained pressure techniques used in remedial massage may assist in easing nerve pain, reducing muscular tension, and improving movement. Your physiotherapist will attend to the underlying cause while also providing guidance on self-care options you may explore in your everyday life.
Can remedial massage be claimed through 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 Mornington clinic for convenient on-the-spot claiming.
