What is Massage
And its purpose.
Remedial Massage is the application of a range of therapeutic techniques, used to treat muscles that are knotted, tense, stiff, or damaged. The remedial therapist will assess and identify which areas of the body require treatment, and use a range of massage-based techniques to optimise muscle function.
A Remedial Massage therapist uses systematic assessment and treatment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues of the body, to assist in pain, injury and rehabilitation. To understand how to treat patients, a remedial therapist must know anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology.
Massage we Provide
And what to expect.
Here at Nourish & Thrive we provide relaxation, remedial and pregnancy massage. Upon arrival, we will discuss what you are requiring from your massage, going through range of motion (ROM) and assessing for variation/improvement since previous massage, taking into account any other relevant health information. We then leave you to get on the comfortable massage table. We can assist, if mobility is problematic, or any time on from the second trimester of pregnancy.
Pregnancy massage is safe during the first trimester, and throughout the duration of your pregnancy. We understand that it is a new and exciting time, but are aware some may still not have shared their news. We do require disclosure, as to provide the safest clinical care, but can ensure that confidentiality is of the utmost importance.
