Remedial Massage

Description

Remedial massage differs from some other forms of massage in its focus on pain relief. Various techniques are employed depending on the condition to be treated and the individual tolerances and preferences of the client. Some techniques require the use of oil, some do not; some are vigorous, some quite gentle. The aim throughout is to support the body’s own healing and repair mechanisms.
