Remedial Massage
​
Remedial massage is a complementary therapy that aims to treat muscles that are damaged, knotted, tense or immobile. It is useful for a number of problems that affect the muscles, tendons and bones and can address a number of other health problems.

The benefit of combining chiropractic and massage therapy.
“Is my problem muscle or joint”? This is a common misconception. The answer is both.
Vertebral Subluxation can result in muscle spasm and the opposite is true, tight muscles can restrict joint movements and can even pull them out of alignment.
Therefore, in many cases, combining chiropractic & massage can provide you with a more complete treatment outcome.
By releasing myofascial tension and pressure, it can make chiropractic adjustments easier as the patients are often more relaxed and less anxious. Massage can be beneficial both before & after chiropractic treatments depending on each condition and the individual.
At Hands on Chiropractic & Health, through our teamwork, we can combine chiropractic & massage treatments to optimise our patient’s healing process.
