REMEDIAL MASSAGE
Gregory Hills

Our Gledswood Hills clinic offers Remedial Massage plus other styles.

If you would like a good remedial massage, then our massage therapists have what you’re looking for. One of our therapists has been giving remedial massage for over 25 years.

What is Remedial Massage?

While remedial style massage can be used for general relaxation, it was designed to treat problematic muscles and return them to normal functioning. It uses a variety of techniques to reduce soreness in muscles, reduce muscle tightness, to improve posture, and joint movement. Remedial massage also increases the flow of blood and lymph, particularly in the injured areas, which removes blockages, scar tissue, adhesion’s, and damaged cells, resulting from injuries.

Massage Types

In addition to remedial massage, our therapists are also experienced with other styles of massage. Whether you just want to pamper yourself with a relaxing massage, or you have a particular issue that is troubling you, our massage therapists can employ the technique that is most appropriate, and can work in conjunction with our chiropractors to deal with issues such as: increasing flexibility, improving posture, reducing tension, reducing pain, healing injuries, recovering from sport, improving blood circulation and decreasing stress. Other types of massage that we offer:

Sports Massage

Sports Massage is a type of massage geared toward participants in athletics. It seeks to prevent injuries, and to prepare the body for athletic activity and to maintain it in peak condition. Massaging after strenuous activity also helps reduce stiffness and soreness as well as recover from injuries.

Relaxation Massage

A relaxation massage is a gentle massage for people who don’t have any specific muscle tightness or other issues and just want something to de-stress, and improve mood.

Deep Tissue Massage

Deep tissue massage is definitely not a relaxing massage, but for some people it is their preferred style, because it is very effective at releasing very tight and painful muscles. It’s also effective for rehabilitation from injuries. Poor movement patterns and poor posture and often lead to a build-up of scar tissue and adhesion’s between fascia and muscles, which restricts mobility and cause pain. Deep tissue massage breaks up these adhesions, thus improving range of motion, and decreasing pain.

Hot Stone Massage

Hot Stone is a less common type of massage therapy involving the use of heated stones. The massage therapist places hot stones at specific points of your body during the massage. The combination of heat and the weight warms your muscles and relax them so that massage therapist can apply more pressure to the effected areas without causing discomfort.

Pregnancy Massage

SB Chiro massage therapists are trained in massage for pregnant women. During pregnancy you may experience symptoms such as low back pain, sciatica, and generalized aches and pains. A pregnancy massage is a gentle and effective way to treat these issues safely.

Remedial Massage Therapist

Jason studied at TAFE NSW and completed a Diploma of Remedial Massage. Human movement has always interested Jason, as he has dabbled in exercise science and sport. Throughout his life, Jason has played a variety of sports, but his favourite was football. Jason became more interested in strength training, in his mid-to-late teenage years, and then became interested in Olympic weightlifting. Having overcome numerous sporting injuries throughout his life, Jason knows how debilitating they can be – both physically and mentally.
