Remedial massage treats and manages specific areas of discomfort, injury, and reduced function.

Kirsten uses remedial massage techniques to soften and release both connective tissue and muscle, whilst combining this with trigger point therapy to specifically treat problem areas. Kirsten makes sure surrounding muscles, joints, tendons, and connective tissue that may have been compensating are also assessed and treated.

Remedial massage techniques include both soft and deep massage which are combined with stretching and specific pressure in areas that will aid in release of tension through muscle fibres (trigger point therapy). When muscles are released and connective tissue softens this allows tendons and joints to move more freely as well as releasing the strain on structural parts of the body such as the pelvis, spine, and ribs. These techniques are very effective in decreasing discomfort, improving movement, circulation, and general well being. Kirsten uses a massage oil that is low in allergens and can be washed away with water.

Remedial massage can also be an effective part of a treatment plan if you're seeing a chiropractor, osteopath or physiotherapist on a regular basis. It is important to note that techniques and strength of pressure are used in accordance with your needs, tolerance, presenting symptoms and medical history. This information is obtained via ongoing assessment and a client intake form on your initial consult.

COVID-19 Safe Practices

As a health care worker I have been fully vaccinated (including booster on 5/01/22), against COVID-19.
If you are suffering from cold or flu symptoms or been in contact with someone who has COVID-19 symptoms please reschedule. If you do need to reschedule, please let me know at least two days in advance. For appointments cancelled with less than twenty-four hours notice, the full consult fee will be charged.
As it is a close contact therapy face masks need to be worn by the practitioner and the client during the consult to provide a safe environment.
Hand washing facilities and/or hand sanitiser will be available for anyone attending the clinic.
Adequate social distancing will be implemented in the clinic by spacing out chairs in the waiting room and in the clinic, only seeing one person at a time and staggering appointment times.
The massage table and consultation area will be cleaned with disinfectant after each client. Linen will continue to be replaced after each client.
Surfaces and equipment in and near the clinic will be cleaned with disinfectant between clients and on a regular basis.
