What Is Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy involves the application of various manual techniques and deep-tissue massage to manipulate the body's muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It aims to alleviate chronic pain, reduce muscle tension, and relieve stress.
This therapeutic approach is used to treat a range of conditions, from acute injuries to joint pain, by supporting circulation, joint mobility, and general muscle recovery
We Offer Sports And Remedial Massage
Massage therapy encompasses Sports and Remedial Massage, targeting specific areas of the body to help with pain and support mobility and function.
Sports Massage Therapy
Sports massage therapy involves applying specific massage techniques to athletes and active individuals to support performance, help reduce injury risk, and aid recovery. It addresses muscle imbalances, reduces muscle tension, and improves flexibility and range of motion.
Athletes commonly use this type of therapy during training and before or after competitions to support physical condition and help reduce the risk of injuries.
Remedial Massage Therapy
Remedial massage therapy, on the other hand, is aimed at treating musculoskeletal conditions and injuries through targeted manual techniques. It helps with pain, supports function, and aids overall healing by addressing contributing factors in the soft tissues.
Benefits Of Massage Therapy
Using sports massage and dry needling to help with recovery and maintain their physical capabilities throughout training and competing.
Aside from athletes, the general population can also benefit from remedial massage; whether it be to help you complete a sporting activity, a marathon or to help relieve pain and support your ability to continue active daily living tasks.
By using dry needling in combination with sports massage, we can address multiple areas of the body, treating both the pain and contributing factors.
If you are recovering from a more serious injury, sports massage can be
a useful complementary treatment to your physiotherapy.
Once back to full activity, regular dry needling and sports massage can be a helpful way to stay on top of any niggles that may arise once
increasing your volume and intensity.
How Massage Therapy Works?
A variety of techniques are incorporated, such as:
-
Trigger Point Therapy: Involves applying pressure to deactivate sensitive points in muscle fibres that can cause referred pain in other areas of the body, not necessarily where the pain is felt.
-
Dry Needling: A technique using fine needles to release trigger points and muscle tension, often used in conjunction with massage for deep tissue issues.
-
Active Release Techniques (ART): Combines massage, pressure, and movement to address soft tissue restrictions and help restore range of motion.
-
Myofascial Release: Focuses on the fascia, a connective tissue that spans the body. This technique involves stretching and mobilising the fascia around areas of pain to reduce discomfort and improve mobility.
These techniques are tailored to individual needs, allowing our team to tailor treatment by using them individually or in combination as required.
