Remedial Massage in Perth

patient having shoulder massagedTight, overworked muscles can make everyday movements feel more difficult and less comfortable. Whether you’ve been sitting at a desk all day, training hard or dealing with ongoing muscle tightness, remedial massage at Perth Healthcare Centre is tailored to your individual needs and focuses on relieving areas of tension that may be contributing to discomfort.

A Targeted Approach to Massage

Remedial massage focuses on areas of muscle tension and restriction using techniques selected to suit your presentation and comfort level. Your therapist will adjust the pressure throughout the session, from lighter techniques to deeper work where appropriate. For some people, firm pressure isn’t comfortable or suitable. In those cases, your therapist may use slower, relaxation-style techniques and gentle stretching to help reduce muscle tension while keeping the care comfortable.

Common Reasons Patients Book an Appointment

People choose remedial massage for a variety of musculoskeletal concerns, including:

  • Headache-related muscle tension
  • Low back pain and sciatic-type symptoms
  • Sporting and dance-related injuries
  • Muscle cramps and tightness
  • Whiplash-related muscle tension
  • Restricted shoulder movement and general stiffness

What to Expect From Your Session

Appointments are available in 30, 45, 60 and 90-minute sessions. Many private health funds include benefits for remedial massage, so it’s worth checking your level of cover before booking. Prior to your appointment, we recommend arriving well hydrated. After your massage, it’s normal to experience some temporary muscle soreness or tiredness. Taking it easy for the rest of the day and continuing to drink water can help you feel more comfortable as your body settles following your session.

Tailored to Your Comfort

Not every remedial massage needs to involve firm pressure. If you prefer a lighter approach or have areas that are particularly sensitive, simply let your therapist know before your session starts. Techniques and pressure can be adjusted throughout the session to keep your massage comfortable and appropriate for your individual needs. Every appointment is tailored to how you’re feeling on the day rather than following a standard routine.
