Remedial massage involves intensive work on the muscles and uses techniques such myofascial release, trigger point therapy and mobilisation. It supports and speeds up the body’s own repair mechanisms. Massage improves circulation which aids the removal of metabolites and chemicals from the body and reduces inflammation. Massage can be gentle or strong. Reported benefits include relaxation, pain relief, the removal of toxins, calming the nervous system, toning and relaxing muscle which results in improved joint mobility.
