If you have muscle tension, stiffness or damage, remedial massage can help. It’s a hands-on therapy that aims to treat muscles that are knotted, tense, immobile or even damaged, to help them heal and repair. Depending on your injury and the results you’re looking to see, the massage itself can be deep or soft.
Every person deserves to feel good, and to receive the best care and treatment for their needs – especially seniors and older adults. As we get older, our bodies can be more at risk of damage, injuries, stiffness, aches and pains. We might find that things we used to be able to do, now become more limited.
The difference between remedial massage and other types of massage is the outcomes you’re looking for, remedial massage helps you heal. Our Mobile Remedial Massage Therapy in Adelaide can help repair and restore your injured muscles and keep your body operating with more functionality. It can also help to reduce pain which will make everyday activities easier and more pleasant.
Our goal at Alpha Allied Health is to provide professional and compassionate care for seniors and all patients with in-home remedial massage in Adelaide.
Remedial massage can use a range of massage techniques to bring you fantastic physical outcomes and results. These can include:
Deep tissue massage is a powerful massage technique where our remedial massage therapists realign the deeper layers of your muscle and connective tissue. This is particularly effective for treating chronic aches and pains, as well as where tension is concentrated in the body, like in the neck, shoulders and lower back.
Your massage therapist will apply sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes that promote healing and relief from chronic pain.
With trigger point therapy your massage therapist will apply focused pressure to areas known as trigger points. This pressure helps to release the knots in those areas, relieve pain and restore function.
This kind of therapy is fantastic for clients who are experiencing chronic pain or tension, including referred pain that can spread from impacted trigger points.
Our massage therapists can incorporate the practice of needling into their remedial massage work. Sometimes called dry needling as well, with this treatment, your massage therapist inserts fine needles into specific points within the muscle tissue. This is a highly-effective technique that can be used to treat muscular pain and myofascial dysfunction (a long-term pain condition).
If you’re struggling with muscular pain, whether from an injury or a chronic condition, dry needling can help stimulate healing and relieve pain.
Stretching is an essential part of remedial massage. It helps to improve your flexibility, range of motion and overall functionality and wellbeing.
Our remedial massage therapists incorporate stretching into your massage routine to achieve better outcomes. In fact, stretching can help your other treatments to be more effective and cement your long-term benefits.
Regular stretching as part of your massage routine is also helpful as a preventative measure. It helps you prevent muscle stiffness, support better posture and maintain a more active and comfortable lifestyle.

A mobile remedial massage therapy is similar to any other massage. Your massage therapist will set up their table and other equipment in a private area in your home. After consulting with you about how you’re feeling, they’ll begin to work through the massage techniques requested. Throughout the process they’ll continue to check in with you to make sure that you’re comfortable. You can also request no talking if you prefer.
You’ll probably feel most comfortable if you have a bath or shower prior to your remedial massage. Once you’ve had your bath or shower, put on something that is comfortable and that you can feel relaxed in. Your massage therapist will bring everything else that they need for your remedial massage treatment.
