Remedial massage uses deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, and stretching to help release tension, support mobility, and encourage the body's natural recovery processes in targeted areas.
Remedial massage aims to assist with relieving muscle tension, supporting relaxation, promoting lymphatic drainage, and encouraging a general sense of well-being.
Clinical remedial massage is an outcome-focused approach, applying specific techniques targeted to the musculoskeletal issues identified during a thorough assessment by your therapist. These treatments are tailored to support your specific physical goals.
Remedial massage at Foundation Health is a hands-on treatment for muscles, tendons and connective tissue, planned around what your body needs on the day. Our practitioners work with advanced soft tissue techniques, deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, cupping and lymphatic drainage, and choose the mix that suits you.
Every session starts with a conversation about where things are tight, sore or restricted and what you want from the treatment, whether that is a specific problem, recovery after training or a regular reset from desk work. Treatment then focuses on releasing resistance in the tissue, restoring movement and balance, and helping you notice what your body is telling you.
