Advanced clinical massage
​
Advanced clinical massage is an outcome based treatment with the aim to help reduce symptoms of chronic pain and increase range of motion. It encompasses different advanced techniques that deal with issues in the tissues and techniques that promote relaxation within a holistic approach.
During the first session we will go through a thorough consultation including a range of motion testing. Each session is tailored uniquely to your needs based on the information you give me, my observations and the outcome you want to achieve.
With the aim to provide the most effective treatment for your needs I may use a range of techniques such as ’Amma’ (eastern techniques), Myofascial release, trigger point , deep tissue and (advanced) stretching all beautifully linked with broad relaxation massage strokes.
You will be given self care techniques to do at home to promote healing quicker. When working with a particular pathology I like to work within a six week window. I normally see clients weekly for the first three weeks, then we will re-assess and if feasible I will see them fortnightly or monthly. One to six treatments may alter pain symptoms completely and increase range of motion. Most clients report a reduction in pain, increase in range of motion and a sense of well-being.
