REMEDIAL MASSAGE
Remedial massage is one of the most effective and readily available ways to prevent and treat muscle injuries, pain and soreness. Treatment employs massage techniques designed to treat both deep and superficial tissues.
The vast majority of low back pain originates in postural
alignment problems that sometimes go back to childhood and adolescence.
Remedial massage can go some way towards addressing such complaints, as
well as other specific problems, such as whiplash, RSI and sports injuries.
BENEFITS
Remedial massage can create pain relief, correcting and normalising the
body’s muscles and soft tissues. It can also reduce adhesions, break
down scar tissue and decrease inflammation.

Only 17% of women with back pain have had workplace training in the care of their backs. Women are more likely to get back pain if they work in the health services, retailing, hotel and catering, banking, finance and insurance industries. Nurses are particularly prone to back pain. 80,000 nurses injure their backs each year and 3,600 are invalided out as a result. -from www.backpain.org |
