Holistic Massage Treatment Approach
We take a holistic approach to our assessment and treatment, considering the entire body and its interconnectedness. Our therapists are trained to identify postural imbalances and weight-bearing changes that may indicate misalignment. They will also have a thorough consultation with you about your lifestyle, taking into consideration any physical, routine or emotional challenges that could be contributing to the problem. Through addressing the underlying cause of your discomfort in addition to the immediate pain, the aim is to create long-lasting results and a better quality of health after you walk out our door.
The Art and Science of Massage in Carlton North
Our therapists employ a blend of scientific knowledge and artistic intuition to elevate your physical and spiritual wellbeing. During your Holistic Remedial Massage, various whole-body healing methods may be incorporated based on your unique needs and how you show up that day. This could look like reflexology, trigger-point therapy, aromatherapy, hot stones, energetic rebalancing, reiki, sound healing, or shamanic techniques. Each session is a personalised experience guided by your therapist’s intuitive connection with your body.
Trauma-Informed Therapy and Somatic Techniques
Our therapists are extensively trained in trauma-informed approaches to treatment. They take care to incorporate somatic techniques to help ground and soothe tension caused by trauma and anxiety, keeping you feeling safe and relaxed throughout your session.
In our experience, many people think of massage as being a thing you do to treat yourself – something that’s deserved on your birthday or some other time of celebration. Remedial massage is so much more than a ‘feel good’ session.
Each of our therapists has hundreds (probably thousands) of hours of clinical experience and has treated clients with all manner of aches and pains, reduced movement and injuries.
Here’s what we see in practice: clients arrive after putting up with a painful problem for a week, two weeks, a month, or 6 months. Usually the problem has begun without much ado and – because we’re used to the way things go – the client imagines that the problem will resolve itself.
Sometimes these problems do resolve themselves, yes. Gosh, we love it when that happens!
But very commonly, we see people who have had a pain or an injury for an extended period of time who find that their therapist is able to work with their specific issue… Specific massage and stretching techniques are known to relieve pain and improve movement when they’re applied properly. And those people who wait for weeks or months in pain invariably kick themselves for having waited so long to attend to their issue.
Repeat after us: Remedial massage isn’t a treat!
