Remedial Massage in Melbourne CBD
Targeted deep tissue therapy to relieve pain, restore movement, and support your body's recovery.
WHAT IS REMEDIAL MASSAGE
What is Remedial Massage?
Remedial massage is a targeted form of massage therapy designed to treat specific musculoskeletal issues — rather than general relaxation. Unlike a spa or relaxation massage, remedial massage is guided by an assessment of your soft tissue condition and a clear treatment goal. Your therapist assesses your movement, posture, and areas of concern to deliver a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
It uses firm, sustained pressure and specific techniques to address the structures contributing to your pain or restriction. Remedial massage is well-suited for people experiencing muscular tension from work or exercise, recovering from injury, or managing the physical effects of stress. It is also an effective complement to other treatments such as physiotherapy, chiropractic care, or exercise rehabilitation.
At Flow State Therapies in Melbourne CBD, remedial massage may also incorporate dry needling and cupping when clinically appropriate — these techniques are included in your session at no additional cost.
YOUR APPOINTMENT
What to expect in your session
Initial Conversation
Your therapist will ask about your current symptoms, medical history, and what you hope to achieve from treatment. A brief assessment of your movement may be performed. This helps tailor the session to your specific needs and ensures treatment is targeted.
Intentional Treatment
Using deep tissue techniques and trigger point therapy your therapist works through the areas of tension and restriction identified in your assessment. Pressure is always communicated and adjusted to your comfort level throughout the session.
Aftercare Guidance
After your session, your therapist will share any relevant stretches or self-care strategies, and recommend a follow-up schedule if further treatment would be beneficial.
Every session is individually tailored. Your therapist will assess your specific needs and develop a treatment plan suited to you.
