What is remedial massage therapy?
This treatment uses a combination of deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, joint mobilisations and stretching.
I adopt a biopsychosocial approach to treatment, and a thorough consultation helps us to understand and work with the root cause of pain or tension. If you have specific pain or injury, we will work together over a series of sessions to get you out of pain. In addition to treatment, you will also be taught self-care exercises to practice in between sessions.

What to expect
A thorough consultation identifies the reasons for seeking treatment (such as pain, tension, anxiety) and we work together to identify the root cause. We’ll discuss health history, your reasons for seeking treatment, and physical assessment. We will agree on the course of treatment to reach your desired outcome, and I will prepare a bespoke treatment plan for your session(s).
This treatment is done on a massage table. A draping technique is used so that you feel warm and safe throughout the session. At the end of the session I’ll give you some self-care practices to do between sessions, to support the treatment plan.
