Rehabilitation Massage

Rehabilitation massage is a therapeutic approach designed to aid in the recovery process following an injury or surgery. This type of massage focuses on the specific areas of the body that have been compromised and works to enhance the natural healing mechanisms. Through a combination of massage techniques, such as myofascial release and lymphatic drainage, rehabilitation massage aims to reduce inflammation, improve circulation and restore range of motion. It also assists in alleviating pain and reducing scar tissue. This targeted treatment can contribute to a quicker rehabilitation and help patients return to their normal activities with greater ease and less discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is deep tissue massage painful?

As deep tissue massage involves using firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper layers of the muscle and fascia, so it's not uncommon to feel some discomfort or even pain. This type of therapy is ideal for chronic aches and pains such as stiff necks, low back pain, leg muscle tightness and sore shoulders. While pain can simply be a sign of problem areas, it can also indicate the body tensing to protect damaged areas. Please always tell your massage therapist if you feel pain during your session.
How will I feel after a massage?

Generally, after a massage, you will feel relief and relaxation. While a massage won't make you sick, it is completely normal to feel out of sorts afterwards. This is because massage releases free radicals that have built up within the muscular knots. For this reason, we always recommend drinking plenty of water after your session. After this initial slow period, you may experience an increase in energy and better productivity.
