Remedial & orthopaedic massage is a natural and subtle way to treat the body's aches and pains. The therapist gently works deep into the muscle which encourages the body's own healing power and ability to repair.
Remedial massage can help a number of complaints including:
- Poor circulation
- Arthritis and rheumatism. These we cannot cure, but can certainly ease the pain and increase mobility thus improving quality of life.
- Back pain and neck tension
- Stress relief and relaxation
- Sports injuries
- Repetitive strain injury (RSI)
- Sprains and strains (incl. whiplash)
- Frozen shoulder
- Tennis elbow
- Chronic headaches
- TMJ
Hands on therapies are one of the oldest forms of medicine known to man and were used in ancient Greek, Roman and Chinese civilisations. The word massage comes from the Greek word "massein", meaning to knead.
