REMEDIAL MASSAGE

Remedial massage is targeted treatment designed to assess and address muscle tension, movement restrictions, postural strain, and pain patterns. 

Each treatment is tailored to your individual presentation and goals, whether you're seeking relief from a specific issue or ongoing support for your wellbeing. 

The Nourished Massage standard massage session is 60-minutes, but we also offer 40-minute and 90-minute sessions to accommodate those wanting to getting a particular issue sorted, or need more time for their issues.  

My treatments are built on a Swedish massage foundation, creating a flowing and comfortable treatment experience while still achieving therapeutic outcomes.

I typically work from a moderate pressure base, adjusting pressure and techniques according to your body's response and comfort level. Rather than believing "No pain, no gain", I focus on achieving meaningful tissue change without exceeding "comfortably uncomfortable".

I also utilise Chapman's Reflexes as part of my assessment and treatment approach where appropriate. These reflex points can provide additional insight into patterns of tension and dysfunction, helping me tailor treatment more effectively to the individual.

You undress in private after the initial treatment plan conversation. I am trained to drape you with sheets or towels that ensure your privacy as I work on your areas of concern.  

Clients are always required to wear underwear at Nourished Massage.

 Remedial massage may assist with:

• Neck and shoulder tension
• Lower back pain
• Headaches and tension headaches
• Postural strain
• Mobility and balance
• Muscle fatigue
• Sporting and exercise-related soreness
• Stress-related tension
• General aches and pains

Your first appointment includes a discussion about your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. This helps me understand what's contributing to your discomfort and develop a treatment plan tailored to you.

Treatment techniques and pressure are adjusted throughout the session to ensure you receive the most appropriate care.
