About Remedial Massage

What is Remedial Massage?

Remedial Massage is massage with intent, with purpose. A regular massuer or masseuse works with the muscles and the skin, releasing tension in the top layer of muscles to create calm and destress. A remedial massage on the other hand, can work within the entire body, it's structures and it's systems. Using assessment skills and soft tissue therapy, we can determine issues within the musculo-skeletal system and aim to correct these issues. If something isn't healing fast enough we can improve the cardiovascular system to pump fresh blood with nutrients to the site to heal faster, speed up the immune system to clear out injury, tissue debris and non-viral infections. Remedial massage can allow the digestive system return to a calm state, the hormone system can be balanced through massage, the nervous system can be calmed and restored from a state of panic, agitation and sensitivity.
Remedial massage has so many and such significant benefits to the body that it cannot be listed in totality. It can restore balance and health. It can remove pain, discomfort, tension, tweaks and pulls. It can calm senses, systems, and the mind. It can speed up improvement, recovery, and growth. It can free up muscles, digestion, constipation, and the feeling of things being stuck. Remedial massage is not just a regular massage, although there are some similar techniques - it's all about how it's used. If you have any questions, concerns, or specific conditions you'd like to know about, please don't be afraid to contact.
  • Rowan is a highly skilled masseur, who intuitively tunes in to the needs of your body and remarkably works on all the right spots to leave you feeling free of stress and thoroughly relaxed. He is also extremely witty with a great sense of humour.

  • Rowan provides an excellent pressured firm massage to help release any tension that you may have. He is great at using a firm pressure in the muscles that need it. He is incredibly well educated and knows how to reach underlying muscles with ease. He is also remarkably attentive and highly reliable. I appreciate that he is willing to converse or give you a quiet massage if you would rather.

  • Rowan is an amazing massage therapist. He goes above and beyond for his clients. Very friendly and reliable therapist even when booking last minute appointments. My husband and I are extremely pleased to have found him and will continue to book him regularly. Highly recommend Rowan to anyone wanting a relaxing and amazing massage.

  • The massage service provided is friendly, professional and expert. Time was taken to understand what types and levels of activity may be causing the pre massage pain and discomfort complained of. Problem areas were focused on during the massage, with skill and care. I'll be using the service regularly and happily recommend it to others.

  • It's not often that I see a therapist and try to convince them to charge more! Rowan is a friendly young professional and skilled therapist who does not cut corners with his service. As an OT and massage therapist myself its refreshing to see a young person doing this work for the right reasons in an honest way. As a female I felt secure having Rowan in my home. He used a variety of techniques and treated my neck pain with effective and safe treatments.

  • My husband and I were impressed with the standard of professionalism and the remedial massage provided. He was prompt, brought all the equipment needed and put us at ease during our respective sessions. Moreover his service was covered in part by our health fund. We will definitely be booking him again.

  • So happy I found Rowan's Remedial Massage Therapy! I have just had an hour where my stress and tension have been massaged away by the professional, courteous and friendly therapist. From the initial contact, reminder text, prompt arrival and attentive listening to target my trigger points, his service is excellent. Add to this the convenience of being in my own home and the reasonable rates, and it is easy to see why I am booking in on a regular basis. Cheers, Judi

  • Such a great relaxing massage and a lovely guy to boot. You made it a really comfortable experience and by the end I was in another zone! You knew exactly what pressure to use which was great. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend anyone south of the river to get Rowan over to their house for a fantastic massage :)
