Remedial Massage

Remedial Massage Therapy at InSync:

 

Remedial massage is an effective therapy for proactive pain management and works well in conjunction with other treatment modalities at InSync including physiotherapy, Pilates and Exercise Physiology.

 

InSync’s remedial massage therapist adopts a holistic approach to treating the whole body, focusing on muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints and connective tissues. They aim to:

• Proactively manage pain and achieve long-term mobility and musculoskeletal wellbeing

• Prevent injury

• Reduce muscle tension and stress

• Address a wide range of acute and chronic conditions

• Aid recovery, promote healing and support rehabilitation of existing conditions

• Prescribe exercises, stretches and lifestyle changes

 

How to get started?

​

Prior to commencing treatment, our massage therapist assesses the client’s needs and concerns by asking questions, conducting a postural analysis, assessing body alignment, and biomechanics and considers activity levels and occupation. This consultation process ensures the correct form of therapy and manual techniques are adopted to optimise outcomes.

 

InSync offers remedial massage treatments for 45 and 60-minute appointments.  The therapist will advise on the recommended frequency of treatment to promote optimal functioning and wellbeing. Chronic and long-standing conditions may require a series of regular treatments and an ongoing maintenance plan to return to normal function.

Ideally, regular remedial massages work well to prevent conditions from becoming problematic and painful and are particularly helpful to those who are either very active with high levels of sport and physical activity or those who are very sedentary due to work, age or lifestyle.
