Types of remedial massage
therapy available in Toongabbie
Our remedial massage therapists offer both sports and deep tissue massage (along with other variations) to help soothe those sore muscles:
Sports massage
Perfect for athletes who strive to do their best. Constant training takes a toll on your muscles and can lead to muscle rigidity. With sports massage, we can help you relax your tense muscles while increasing your flexibility and recovery time. A good sports massage regime can improve your overall performance.
Deep tissue massage
Deep tissue massage (find more information here) can be somewhat likened to a Swedish massage in that it uses flowing strokes to apply pressure to push deeper into the muscles and relieve tension throughout the whole body.
Sports vs Deep Tissue massage -
what's the difference?
A sports massage usually focuses on a certain area of the body. It uses a combination of modalities at differing pressures to loosen knots, improve blood flow, and prevent lactic acid buildup. A deep tissue massage is a whole-body massage that can use a lighter pressure to target knots, tightness and pain.
How can sports and deep tissue massage help me?
Sports and deep tissue massages can improve your blood circulation, which nourishes and repairs muscles and tissues damaged as a result of athletic training. This helps with a faster recovery, creating more effective training overall.
How it works
After exercise, lactic and carbonic acid build up in the muscle tissue. This acid causes irritation in the muscles. Sports and deep tissue massages improve circulation, which eliminates these acidic waste products (along with drinking plenty of water) to help your body recover and prepare for the next workout.
What injuries can it cure?
Sports massage can help with the following:
- Release and reduce tension in muscles
- Improve circulation
- Encourage the removal of waste products (e.g. lactic acid during high-intensity activity)
- Relax the body
- Promote recovery
- Reduce the chance of muscle injury
How much does deep tissue, remedial and sports massage therapy costs in Toongabbie?
The price for a sports massage varies depending on the areas that need to be treated. Our massage therapist will run a comprehensive physical and mental assessment and determine the location of your pain or injury and what you wish to achieve. Health fund rebates may be accessible depending on the nature of your injuries; we recommend contacting your insurance provider to find out more.
