What to expect in Pregnancy massage vs
Pregnancy massage Sydney
Pregnancy massage takes into account how your body is changing as your baby grows.
Since the ligaments in your spine stretch and certain muscles become tight while others weaken your pregnancy massage therapist will identify these changes to give you relief.
Pressure applied during the massage can very from gentle to deep depending on your comfort level and the muscles that need to be released.
You should leave feeling relaxed and loose meaning the tightness in the muscles has reduced.
They will then treat the underlying condition rather than just massaging all over and hoping something they did fixes the problem.
Remedial Massage Treatment will involve massaging of particular muscles with deep and light pressure to get your body to have the most effective response.
Treatment will also include active trigger point therapy (muscle releases), deep stretching of your muscles to increase movement and prescribed exercise and rehab to help keep the pain away between treatment.
The only difference between sports and remedial massage is that a sports massage is focused on a particular sporting injury. E.g. Knee and ankle problems for runners, shoulder problems for swimmers, joint/muscle issues for gym goers.
A sports massage utilises different joint and muscle techniques such as releases, stretches and joint movements to get rid of pain. Sports massage is also focused on prevention, so you don’t need to be in pain to get one. You can literally have it done to keep certain problems from starting in the first place!
Like its name suggests it is a massage where the therapist will get quite deep into the muscle to release tension, stiffness and decrease pain.
It is generally not the go-to if you want a relaxing massage but can be very effective in getting rid of tension in the deeper muscles of the entire body.
The deep tissue massage therapist will utilise their knuckles and elbows to break down scar tissue and get into trigger points in the muscle to give you relief.
Therapeutic massage is part of a remedial massage in the sense that it will give you pain relief based on a diagnosis.
Therapeutic massage will have you feeling relaxed and loose by reducing muscle tension, increasing muscle length and improving movement in your body.
Before your treatment your practitioner will examine the area of pain to determine what the most effective treatment will be.
Therapeutic massage will involve muscle releases and massage of varying depth in the area of pain or the entire body depending on your issue to give you the best outcome.
Trigger points are used within remedial, sport and deep tissue massage along with other muscle releases and massage techniques to relieve tension and pain.
Our therapists apply trigger point massage by putting specific pressure with their thumb or elbow onto the trigger point until the muscle relaxes and the trigger point or nodule disappears.
Trigger point massage will leave you loose, relaxed and with noticeably less tension.

FAQ
Our remedial massage therapists are fully qualified to assess and examine your condition so that they can create a treatment plan specific to your problem.
The most effective massage for you is based on the problem you have. Remedial massage is most effective as it is targeted at a specific problem area. Your issue will be examined and tested so that the massage, muscle releases and pressure applied are designed to give you the quickest and most effective relief. This type of massage also helps to improve movement/mobility and focuses on optimum function to stop the problem coming back.
Deep tissue massage is a more generalised massage for the entire back. Deep pressure is applied to give the most effective relief but not targeted at any one specific area.
A sport massage incorporates a lot of what a remedial massage does and is based on a specific sports injury where the problem area is assessed and diagnosed. Treatment is then targeted to stop the pain, improve function and rehabilitate the area to stop the problem from coming back again.
