Benefits of Remedial Massage
Remedial massage therapy offers numerous therapeutic benefits for people experiencing muscle tension, sports injuries, or chronic pain conditions:
- Pain Relief: If you have chronic pain, headaches, or muscle stiffness, remedial massage can help ease pain by focusing on sore spots and tight muscles.
- Better Circulation: Remedial massage helps improve blood flow, which can speed up healing, reduce stiffness, and help repair tissues.
- More Flexibility and Movement: Remedial massage helps loosen up tight muscles, making it easier to move and improving your flexibility. This is great for athletes and people who are active.
- Help with Injuries: Remedial massage can help you recover from sports injuries by reducing swelling and breaking down scar tissue.
- Less Stress: Besides physical pain relief, remedial massage can also help you feel calmer and more relaxed.
- Trigger Point Relief: It targets "knots" in muscles to help relieve pain and improve muscle function, making it effective for sore areas.
Our skilled physiotherapists work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your needs, whether it’s for injury recovery, stress relief, or better mobility to give you the best care possible.
Types of Remedial Massage Adelaide
At Saunders Physiotherapy, we offer a range of massage therapy services tailored to your specific needs. Our Adelaide massage therapists are trained in various techniques to provide the most effective treatment:
Remedial Massage Therapy
Our remedial massage uses specialised techniques to locate and treat muscle tension, pain, and dysfunction. This therapeutic approach targets trigger points, releases tight muscles, and improves circulation to support your body’s natural healing processes. Remedial massage therapy is ideal for treating chronic pain, sports injuries, and postural problems.
Sports Massage Adelaide
Sports massage is designed for active individuals and athletes in Adelaide. This type of massage focuses on preventing and treating sports injuries, improving flexibility, and enhancing recovery after physical activity. Our sports massage techniques can help improve performance, reduce muscle soreness, and speed up recovery time between training sessions or competitions.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage uses firm, slow strokes to reach deeper layers of muscle and fascia. This technique is particularly effective for chronic muscle tension, knots (trigger points), and areas of restricted movement. While the pressure is deeper than a relaxation massage, our therapists always work within your comfort level to achieve optimal results.

Common Questions and Concerns
Is Remedial Massage Painful?
Remedial massage can use deep pressure, which might feel uncomfortable, especially in tight areas. But this feeling usually leads to relief. Our physiotherapists always work within your comfort level to make sure you get the best results.
What Conditions Can Remedial Massage Help With?
Remedial massage can help with many issues, like chronic pain, muscle tension, sports injuries, headaches, and stress. It also helps with posture problems and recovery from muscle injuries.
How Long Does a Remedial Massage Session Last?
Our remedial massage sessions are usually 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your needs and the areas being treated.
Differences Between Remedial and Regular Massage
Remedial massage is different from regular relaxation massage. Regular massages focus on relaxing and reducing stress, while remedial massage targets specific problem areas to treat muscle injuries, pain, and posture problems. It uses techniques that go deeper into the muscles to promote healing, improve function, and restore movement.
Post-Massage Care
After your remedial massage, it’s important to follow some simple steps to get the most out of your treatment:
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to flush out toxins released during the massage.
Rest: Give your body time to rest and recover, especially if deep tissue work was done.
Follow Instructions: Your physiotherapist might give you specific instructions, like gentle stretching or using heat packs, to help you feel better.

At Saunders Physiotherapy, we have flexible session options to suit your needs:
