REMEDIAL MASSAGE SYDNEY

How long is a remedial massage appointment?

​

How long your appointment is will depend on your chosen treatment and the severity of the issues. Generally, if you're not sure what kind of appointment you need, your remedial massage therapist will be able to tell you after you’ve discussed your condition. We offer both remedial and sports massages in Sydney. There are three types of appointments available for Sydney remedial massage therapy with Infinite Health at our Chatswood, North Sydney & Sydney CBD clinics:

 

60-minute remedial massage appointments

Allows for treatment on two to four muscle groups, depending on the severity of the issue.

 

90-minute remedial massage appointments

Ideal for patients with more complex issues or those who want more time spent on specific muscles. 90-minute appointments are also most appropriate for those who have not had a remedial massage in a long time, as any previous concerns may have worsened over time.

120-minute remedial massage appointments

Best suited to patients requiring a full body massage therapy treatment or extensive work on specific muscle groups. Also highly recommended for those who have put off a remedial massage for extensive periods as any previous or neglected issues may have worsened over time.

 

Some of our practitioners are trained in providing dry needling (with electrical stimulation) and myofascial cupping. They can perform remedial massage in one area whilst administering these complementary treatments in another area. Speak to your remedial massage therapist to see if this is suitable for you.

​

What are the benefits of remedial massage?

 

Remedial massage therapy refers to a type of manual therapy that aims to relieve and treat muscles that are tense, damaged, knotted, or immobile. In many cases, remedial massage in Sydney can be beneficial for neck pain relief, releasing tension, breaking up scar tissue, and generally just helping you to feel better and achieve optimal health! The different techniques used in remedial massage can increase blood flow and blood supply to the musculoskeletal system, allowing myofascial release, increasing mobility, and helping to improve flexibility. Similarly, the massage itself will encourage the release of endorphins and the decrease in stress hormones, which can improve your immune system's capabilities and overall well-being.

​

What should I wear to my remedial massage appointment?

 

Depending on the area of treatment, you will be asked to remove your clothing but not underwear. This will allow your remedial massage therapist to access your problem areas and carry out an effective treatment. Your therapist will leave the room while you get undressed, lie on the treatment bed, and cover yourself with the large towel which we will provide. Your therapist will then re-enter the room. If you are uncomfortable with this, just let your therapist know and they will be more than happy to accommodate. In these instances, we recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing to your appointment. Ensure that your clothes are unrestricting and the fabric is light, to allow for your professional remedial massage therapists to provide manual therapy to the affected areas.

​

How many massage sessions will I need?

 

The number of remedial massage therapy sessions needed will come down to your condition, injury, and how your appointment plays out. After your first remedial massage session, your massage therapist will discuss all concerns, and provide advice on how many sessions may be needed and what you can do between sessions.
