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.

Questions We Are Often Asked 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 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 Sandhurst therapists are trained in therapeutic techniques that may work to address underlying concerns.
Can massage help treat nerve pain?
A number of people find that the sustained pressure techniques applied in remedial massage may assist with nerve pain relief, reducing muscular tension, and improving movement. Your physiotherapist will concentrate on the underlying cause while guiding you through self-care options you may explore in your day-to-day 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 Sandhurst clinic for convenient on-the-spot claiming.
What other concerns do you work with?
