What is the difference between a deep tissue treatment and other massage treatments?
Deep Tissue treatments focuses on overworked muscles to provide tension relief. Deep Tissue is a standard treatment technique.
Sports Massage is a treatment that is aimed at preparing your body for performance and helping it recover from intense activity. Improving range of mobility and reducing soreness & tightness.
Myofascial Release specifically targets the myofascial layer of soft tissues, which can become tight and restrictive around muscles and organs. Specific training and skill sets are required to be able to use these techniques.
Structural Integration, a Muscle Medicine Signature Treatment, focuses on providing improved postural form for improved functionality. This treatment involves integrating a range of techniques that have been developed over years of training and practice. Only our most senior therapists are able to provide Structural Integration treatments.
Why am I getting a Treatment Plan?
If you have a specific complaint, there is what we call a ‘pathology’, something is not right in your muscles. This may be an adhesion, tear, strain, overuse or compensatory use which is causing your soft tissues to cause you pain, discomfort or restriction in motion.
It is likely that this has been caused by either a trauma (hit, slip, jolt etc) to the area or by a pattern of movement you have adopted. Either way, it is unlikely that we are able to ‘unwind’ the damage in one session. It will take our therapist a few sessions over a specified period of time to make the adjustments. We need to create adjustments, allow your body time to accept these adjustments and to see how your body reacts the treatment.
This is why our therapists will provide you with a recommendation or Treatment Plan to help you get the sustained results you are after.
Do I need to see the same therapist all the time?
No, our therapists leave comprehensive notes in our CRM system, so each of the therapists can see your history and the treatments you have had previously.
The treatment will differ between therapists, as their styles differ, but the focus will remain the same – providing you what your body needs.
