Benefits of Remedial Massage
What to Expect During Your Session
Your remedial massage session begins with a thorough consultation. Your therapist will discuss your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals. They may perform a brief assessment to identify the source of your discomfort.
During the treatment, various techniques may be used including deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and stretching. Your therapist will communicate throughout to ensure the pressure is effective yet comfortable.
After your session, your therapist may provide recommendations for stretches, exercises, or lifestyle modifications to support your recovery.

- • Avoid heavy exercise for 24-48 hours
- • Perform any stretches recommended by your therapist
- • Note improvements for your next session
- • Book follow-up treatments as recommended
