A comprehensive remedial massage treatment works to improve general wellbeing, relieve musculoskeletal pain and enhance recovery after exercise. It can also be integrated into your lifestyle to assist in pain management for chronic conditions, and promote rehabilitation and relaxation.
Remedial massage is often utilised after a muscle or ligament injury which impacts function, by reducing or eliminating pain, and aiding the healing process. This modality aims to balance muscle and soft tissue, tension and tone, which can in turn promote healthy joints, capsular ligaments, and bone position. It works to increase blood flow and lymph, enabling a removal of blockages, damaged cells, scar tissue and adhesions that can occur from injury.
Through their knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology, a remedial massage therapist will use the appropriate techniques to aid the body in the natural healing process to restore a state of healthy function.
In addition to the physical benefits, remedial massage is highly regarded for its ability to reduce stress and anxiety through muscular relaxation and release, allowing clients to feel refreshed and rejuvenated after a treatment.
Maddy is qualified as a Remedial Therapist and believes that pain doesn’t have to be normal nor a constant state of being; tension in the body doesn’t have to be the cause of stress or fatigue, nor does it have to limit your day to day life.
Injuries do not have to be permanent, sciatic pain does not have to be present daily, the pelvis does not have to feel so awful during pregnancy and headaches are not a normal part of life!
Over the years Maddy has worked with a range of different clients and enjoys being able to educate each individual on how to look after their body both inside and outside of the clinic.
She understands the connection between the muscular and fascial systems of the body and has recently added craniosacral therapy to her practice which addresses a deeper component.
Maddy practices with a range of different techniques including Remedial Therapy, Myofascial Cupping, Craniosacral Therapy, Myofunctional Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release.
