Remedial Massage: Targeted Assistance for Pain and Muscular Tension

Chronic pain, hypertonic muscles or persistent movement restrictions do not have to be your normal state. In remedial massage, we utilise medically sound manual techniques to release deep-seated blockages, promote local blood circulation and regenerate your tissues. The goal is for you to feel free, mobile and resilient in your body once again.

A remedial massage is much more than a classic wellness treatment. It is a targeted form of therapy, which is often performed under medical prescription. We do not just work on the surface, but trace the root causes of your symptoms – whether they are myofascial adhesions, trigger points or muscular imbalances.

Medical Massage & Cost Coverage: Remedial massage is a medically prescribed form of therapy, the costs of which are often covered by health insurance.

What Remedial Massage Can Help You With

Our remedial massage therapist specialises in:

• Back and Neck Pain: Ideal if you spend a lot of time at a desk and suffer from postural imbalances.

• Chronic Muscular Tension: We effectively resolve painful myogeloses (muscle indurations).

• Headaches & Migraines: Often the cause lies in hypertonic neck musculature or temporomandibular joint tension.

• Sports Injuries & Regeneration: Accelerates the elimination of metabolic waste products and restores muscular elasticity.

• Movement Restrictions: Improves the elasticity of tendons, ligaments and myofascial structures.

• Post-operative or Post-traumatic Rehabilitation: Supports the healing process and reduces oedema (e.g., in combination with manual lymphatic drainage).

How Your Appointment Works

Each treatment begins with a brief medical history (anamnesis): Where exactly is the pain located? What exacerbates it? This is followed by a manual assessment of the tissue. The remedial massage is then individually tailored to your clinical picture. We combine various techniques – from classical massage to trigger point therapy and connective tissue techniques – so that you experience immediate and sustainable relief.

What You Gain from the Treatment

How you will feel better quickly:

• Pain Relief: Reduction of acute and chronic complaints.

• Improved Mobility: Your body feels less "stiff" or restricted.

• Stress Reduction: Lowering of cortisol levels through physical relaxation.

• Prevention: Prevention of secondary damage through the early release of blockages.

Your Tips for Everyday Life (Self-Care)

Simple steps you can implement immediately:

• Hydration Focus: Drink an additional 0.5 to 1 litre of water after the massage to better flush out the released metabolic end products.

• Utilise Heat: A warm bath or a hot water bottle on the evening after the massage enhances the relaxation effect on the musculature.

• Gentle Movement: Avoid intense exercise immediately after the remedial massage, but go for a short walk – this keeps the lymphatic flow stimulated.
