Remedial Massage Therapy At activate Body
Remedial massage therapy is a specialised approach to treating and rehabilitating musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. This hands-on therapy employs a range of techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, stretching, and relaxation techniques, to reduce muscle tension, improve mobility, and restore function.
Our Specialties Include:
-
This technique involves inserting thin needles into trigger points to promote muscle relaxation and pain relief. Dry needling can help stimulate blood flow and encourage healing in tight or injured muscles.
-
Remedial massage focuses on treating specific musculoskeletal issues, including injuries and chronic pain conditions. Our skilled therapists assess your body to identify areas of tension and dysfunction.
Benefits: This type of massage aims to restore optimal function by targeting problem areas, improving circulation, and promoting healing. It is particularly effective for those recovering from injuries or managing ongoing discomfort.

Tailored for athletes, sports massage is designed to prevent and treat injuries while enhancing performance. This technique is effective for both pre- and post-competition to prepare the body for activity and aid in recovery afterward.
Benefits: Sports massage helps to increase flexibility, reduce muscle soreness, and improve circulation. It can also address specific issues related to sports, such as overuse injuries and muscle imbalances, allowing athletes to perform at their best.
-
Cupping therapy utilises suction cups to promote circulation, relieve muscle tension, and facilitate healing. This ancient technique creates a vacuum effect that draws blood to the surface of the skin, enhancing local blood flow.
Benefits: Cupping can help reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and improve overall relaxation. It is often used in conjunction with other massage techniques to enhance the therapeutic effects and promote faster recovery.
-
Trigger point therapy focuses on identifying and releasing tight knots in muscles that cause pain and discomfort. These trigger points can refer pain to other areas, complicating diagnosis and treatment.
Benefits: By addressing these specific areas of tension, trigger point therapy helps to alleviate pain, improve range of motion, and promote muscle relaxation. It is effective for managing both acute and chronic pain conditions.
-
Pregnancy massage utilises safe and soothing techniques to relieve discomfort associated with pregnancy. Our trained therapists use specialised methods to ensure the comfort and safety of both mother and baby.
Benefits: This therapy can help alleviate common pregnancy-related issues, such as back pain, swelling, and stress. Pregnancy massage promotes relaxation, improves circulation, and supports overall well-being during this transformative time.

Myofascial release focuses on relieving tension in the fascia—the connective tissue that surrounds muscles, bones, and joints. This technique involves gentle stretching and sustained pressure to release fascial restrictions, promoting increased flexibility, pain relief, and improved circulation. Myofascial release can be particularly beneficial for individuals with chronic pain, postural issues, or injuries.
