Remedial Massage Therapy Modalities
Myo-fascial Release
This is the foundations of the treatment, to release soft tissue slowly and within a comfortable pressure for you. Aiming to restore length and relieve tension held in the fascia and muscle.
Some participation will be required by you to assist the treatment by range of movement and resistance.
Trigger Point Therapy
Applying pressure, usually by thumb to a taut band of tissue found in the muscle (trigger point). Reducing pain and discomfort in the area.
Muscle Energy Techniques
This is direct hands-on therapy which utilises the patient's own gentle muscle contractions and body positioning to normalise joint motion.
It is very useful for lengthening and strengthening muscles.
Cupping
A traditional Chinese method, vacuum cupping is very effective for chronic problems, increasing circulation and drawing out toxins that may have stagnated in an area causing pain and/or dysfunction.
Stretching
Passive stretching by a therapist can facilitate a restoration of muscle length, thus improving your range of movement.
This is carried out after tissue work has released any muscle tension.
