Questions We Are Often Asked 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 Mount Martha therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may help address underlying problems.
Can remedial massage help manage 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?
For most people, yes. Our remedial massage therapists are registered with all major private health funds. If remedial massage is included in your extras cover, you can claim a rebate. We have HICAPS facilities available at our Mount Martha clinic for on-the-spot claiming.
What other conditions do you work with?
