What is Remedial Massage?
And How Does it Help?
Remedial Massage involves various techniques of touch that range from low pressure large movements over an area of tissue, to a deep pinpointed pressure on a specific target tissue.
Remedial Massage also involves stretch including passive stretch where your therapist controls the movement, and active stretch which is led by the patient. During an active stretch you will be asked to turn on a muscle group to perform a specific movement to target a particular muscle or muscle group. These different techniques are used to locate and repair damaged areas of the body.
Remedial massage helps to to re-balance tension levels throughout the body to allow for better posture and movement.
Remedial massage can stimulate the blood supply and make joints more mobile. Massage can help you relieve headaches and stress, relax sore and tight muscles, and correct postural imbalances. Remedial massage can also help aid repair and recovery of damaged tissues when you have suffered an injury.
Your highly-trained and experienced massage therapist at Renew You will discuss your health care needs and determine the best style of massage for your body and goals.

Pain Relief
Regular remedial or relaxation massage is a great tool for natural pain management. Massage helps to increase blood circulation to soft tissues, relieve stiff muscles, and aid the repair and recovery of damaged tissues. Your experienced Renew You massage therapist can focus on problem areas such as recurring neck pain, lower back stiffness, or poor posture. Regular massage can also help to alleviate pain due to injury and in managing specific health problems like arthritis and fibromyalgia. Committing to a regular schedule of massage therapy can reduce pain and headaches and see a reduction in dependence on pain medications.
Injury Rehabilitation
Massage is critically important for injury rehabilitation and building injury resilience. Relaxing your muscles and encouraging circulatory movement helps the body pump more oxygen and nutrients into damaged tissues and vital organs. In conjunction with physical therapy, remedial massage allows the rehabilitating injured areas to become more flexible and can speed healing.
Continuing with massage after your initial post-injury physical therapy ends will ensure you continue to increase the strength and flexibility of damaged soft tissue, plus help maintain postural alignment during recovery.
Improved Posture
Poor posture from sedentary office work or repetitive strain can be corrected with regular massages. Proper body alignment allows your body to function more efficiently with less fatigue and strain on your body's ligaments and muscles. Good posture helps to prevent injury and is essential for everything from your digestion, breathing capacity, and daily movement.
If your muscle aches and pains are caused by bad posture, your Renew You massage therapist will help support your body to perform the stretching movements needed to loosen the damaged muscles, reintroduce healthier movements, and strengthen the muscles needed to maintain good posture.
Immune System Support
Making time for regular relaxation massages is the best way to maintain your body’s normal health and function. Massage relaxes the nervous system, improves blood flow, flushes toxins, and aids the body's immune system. Combining regular massage therapy with exercise and a healthy diet is the perfect way to maintain your long-term health.
Reduce Stress
Massage is a great way to reduce stress and anxiety, improve concentration, and boost hormone function. In addition to the long-term physical benefits of massage, an immediate benefit of massage is a feeling of deep relaxation and calm. Relaxation massage promotes the release of endorphins and happy hormones while also reducing the level of stress hormones, such as cortisol adrenalin, and norepinephrine.
