What is Massage Therapy?

Remedial Massage Therapy is a specialised form of massage that is used to treat muscular pain and tension. Our qualified massage therapists use techniques such as kneading, friction and stretching to alleviate pain, reduce muscle tension and improve mobility and flexibility.

Unlike a relaxation massage, remedial massage often involves deeper pressure and more targeted techiques and is used to treat a number of common conditions such as chronic pain, sports related injuries and muscle strains and sprains.

What are the Benefits of Massage Therapy?

Massage Therapy offers a wide range of benefits for both physical health and mental wellbeing. The key physical benefits include:

• the stimulation of the blood supply allowing toxins in the muscles to be removed
• the calming of the peripheral nervous system to ease pain and discomfort
• the toning and relaxing of muscles to improve joint mobility.

The key mental and emotional benefits include:

• Reduced Stress and Anxiety
• Improved Mood
• Increased Mental Clarity
• Improved self-esteem

It’s important to note that the specific benefits massage therapy vary from person to person and the type of massage received. Contact one of our qualified and friendly massage therapists in Mitchelton on (07) 3186 0587.

Massage is believed to activate the parasympathetic nervous system which stimulates the release of endorphins and serotonin. Endorphins are an analgesic compound which reflects a sense of well-being and works as a 'natural pain reliever'. Serotonin helps regulate intestinal movements and acts on the central nervous system where it enhances our moods. Improved quality of sleep is another great side effect of massage.

Muscular and skeletal dysfunctions often addressed with remedial massage include Fibrositis, Spondylitis, Arthritis, frozen shoulder, muscular cramps, whiplash, muscular atrophy, as well as sports and dancing injuries.

• Pregnancy Massage

  Pregnancy massage involves the use of a pregnancy pillow to remove any pressure from the fetus during the massage.
