Remedial & Sports Massage Millswood

Types of Massage offered at The Physio Studio

Remedial Massage

Remedial massage utilises diverse techniques to pinpoint and ease tension and strain in muscles, tendons, and joints, facilitating and expediting the body’s natural recovery processes.

Remedial massage offers benefits like enhancing circulation and blood flow for the removal of muscle waste products; soothing the peripheral nervous system to reduce pain and discomfort; and muscle toning and relaxation for better joint mobility. Additionally, it can improve cellular health, tissue repair, and alleviate muscle stiffness and tension.

Sports Massage

In preventing and treating sports injuries, as well as aiding recovery post-exercise, sports massage is highly beneficial. It’s tailored to the muscle groups you use most in your specific sport, aiding in better blood circulation, enhanced flexibility, and motion range, and reducing muscle discomfort from high-intensity or frequent activities. Additionally, sports massage post-event is great for cleansing the muscles and speeding up recovery.

Deep Tissue Massage

Using firm, slow strokes, Deep Tissue massage targets the deeper layers of muscles and connective tissues. The pressure in deep tissue massage is significantly more intense than that of a relaxation massage, aiding in relieving trigger points and muscle tension, and enhancing circulation.
