How does remedial massage work?

If muscle tension, stiffness, or chronic pain is affecting your daily life, remedial massage can provide effective relief. Your first session begins with a detailed consultation—we take the time to understand your concerns, assess areas of tension, and identify any underlying muscular issues.

From there, we create a personalised treatment plan designed to relieve pain, restore movement, and promote overall well-being. Our treatments include…

  • Active Release Technique

    Active Release Technique (ART for short) uses muscle release techniques that involve shortening and lengthening the muscle under pressure to break up scar tissue and muscle tightness. It’s our primary method for treating problems relating to muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.

  • Myofascial Cupping

    Cupping is commonly used to treat headaches, muscle/ joint aches and to desensitise Trigger points commonly found within problematic muscles. It is also great at relaxing and repairing the deep muscle tissues and helping improve flow within the lymphatic system.

  • Dry Needling

    Dry needling is used to elicit a response from your soft tissues (the muscle will often ‘twitch’) to release tension and aid healing. Think of it like a super-deep massage which can be both incredibly helpful and satisfying. Whilst it might look like acupuncture, dry needling is more focused on releasing tensions and knots.

  • Fascial Abrasion Technique (FAT)

    Fascial Abrasion Technique (FAT)

    The Fascial Abrasion Technique involves the use of a tool to break down scar tissue and resolve fascial restrictions. The contoured shape of the instrument allows clinicians locate the presence of fascial restrictions. The same instrument is then used to apply pressure to reduce tension.
