Remedial Massage is a term describing a variety of techniques
using the hands, mechanical or electrical apparatus to stimulate or soothe soft
tissues of the body for therapeutic purposes. It works by kneading and stroking
muscles to relax them, and uses friction to stimulate soft tissues. This
therapy can increase blood lymph circulation while breaking up scar tissue
between muscle fibers.
Remedial Massage is useful in many
conditions in which body relaxation, the reduction of swelling, and muscle
mobilization is desired. Therapeutic massage and its effects vary with each
individual. A lubricating oil or powder is used to reduce friction during the
circular stroking and compression of soft tissue. Massage enhances joint and
muscle function, improves circulation, increases metabolism and promotes
healing process.
