Remedial massage is a holistic therapy aimed at providing physical relief to muscle pain and tension. It also helps promote relaxation and may reduce stress. This is because massage triggers the release of endorphins while reducing levels of adrenaline, cortisol and norepinephrine—the stress hormones—in the body.
The benefits may include:
- Recovery of soft tissue & sports injuries
- Reducing muscle tension
- Increased joint mobility
- Improved posture
- Promoting feelings of relaxation
- Lowering of stress hormone levels
- Better circulation & skin tone
- Helping to reduce anxiety & depression
The aim of a remedial massage is to treat or rehabilitate an injury by applying hands-on pressure to the muscles to help restore normal health and function.
When you book a remedial massage, your session will begin with an assessment. We will discuss your symptoms and undertake a short physical assessment before talking you through our proposed treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is remedial massage?
Remedial massage is a therapeutic form of bodywork aimed at addressing muscle tension, pain and soft tissue injuries. It involves the application of targeted pressure and movements to specific areas of the body to help alleviate discomfort and support physical recovery. This type of massage is designed to address both the symptoms and underlying causes of musculoskeletal issues. In addition to its physical benefits, remedial massage can promote relaxation and reduce stress, contributing to overall wellbeing.
How does remedial massage work?
Remedial massage works by using specific techniques, such as kneading, stretching and deep pressure, to target areas of muscle tension and soft tissue discomfort. These techniques stimulate blood circulation, which helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues while aiding in the removal of waste products. By releasing tension in muscles and connective tissues, remedial massage supports natural recovery processes, reduces stiffness and improves overall muscle function. The therapy can also promote a sense of relaxation and balance, enhancing both physical and mental wellbeing.
Who can benefit from remedial massage?
Remedial massage can be beneficial for individuals experiencing muscle pain, stiffness or tension due to everyday activities, physical exertion or injury. It is commonly used to address sports injuries, postural imbalances and conditions such as back pain, neck discomfort or muscle strain. People seeking relaxation and stress relief may also find remedial massage helpful. The therapy is tailored to individual needs, making it suitable for a wide range of ages and physical conditions.
Is remedial massage safe?
Remedial massage is generally safe when provided by a qualified practitioner. Techniques are customised to suit an individual’s specific health conditions, age and physical needs, aiming to ensure a controlled and appropriate approach. It is a non-invasive therapy that works within the body’s natural tolerance levels to support musculoskeletal health. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or concerns, it’s important to discuss them with your massage therapist to help ensure the treatment plan aligns with your health requirements.
