Remedial Massage Plympton

Types of Massage offered at The Physio Studio

Remedial Massage

A variety of focused techniques are used in remedial massage to find and reduce tension and strain in muscles, tendons, and joints. It effectively supports and hastens the body’s inherent recuperation methods.

The benefits of remedial massage include the stimulation of circulation and improved blood supply to assist removal of waste products within muscles; the calming of the peripheral nervous system to ease pain and discomfort; and the toning and relaxing of muscles to improve joint mobility. An improvement to the health of the cells, the repairing of tissues, and the easing of stiffness and tension can also be experienced through therapeutic massage.

Sports Massage

Sports massage plays a key role in both preventing and treating sports-related injuries, as well as aiding in post-activity recovery. It targets the muscle groups most used in your sport, helping to enhance blood circulation, boost flexibility and range of motion, and alleviate pain from intense or recurrent physical exertion. Additionally, sports massage is beneficial post-event to help clear the muscles and shorten the recovery period.

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.
