Remedial Deep Tissue Massage

A strong treatment targeting day-to-day aches and chronic pain.

Book nowBook as gift

Are you constantly rubbing your neck or stretching your back because of the hours you spend sitting at your desk? Did you run around the block without stretching first?

Maybe what you need is a Blys deep tissue massage: a systematic assessment targeting the aches and pains that are just uncomfortable enough to require action.

Using a host of techniques designed to loosen muscles, stretch the fascia, and improve fluid circulation, specially trained remedial massage therapists will come straight to your living room to release the tensions of everyday life.

More intense than a relaxing massage, these are an effective treatment for day to day injuries or chronic pain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got a few questions?

What is remedial massage?

Remedial massage aims to alleviate pain or tension in the joints and muscles. Forms of remedial massage include deep tissue massage, which is a strong massage that uses deep pressure to break down scar tissue and knots.

What are the different remedial massage techniques?

The main difference between Swedish relaxation vs deep tissue massage is pressure. Swedish relaxation massage uses less pressure than deep tissue massage. A remedial deep tissue massage is designed to target the deep layers of fascia surrounding the muscle and is ideal for those who experience chronic pain, tension, discomfort or have mobility issues. Swedish relaxation massage uses less intense pressure to relax and soothe the muscles. Check out our blog post on Swedish massage for more information.

What should I look for in a remedial massage therapist?

All therapists on the Blys platform are trained in remedial massage so each is qualified as a remedial massage therapist. The “Therapist Profile” section on the App lists therapists’ skills, so now you are able to be more selective of your therapist. Some massage therapists on the Blys platform are experienced in physiotherapy, which may be preferable to those clients who request a remedial massage therapist.

Do remedial deep tissue massages hurt?

Remedial massage and deep tissue massage are often the preferred choices for those who experience chronic pain and tension. For this reason, the muscles that your therapist will focus on will feel stubborn and immobile. The deep tissue massage pain you might experience is the process of these muscles being moved, scar tissue is broken down, and knots being work out. Remedial deep tissue massage “pain” exists because tight and sore muscles are realigned and resurfaced through deep pressure.

Who should not get a remedial massage?

If you experience any adverse health conditions such as blood clots (thrombophlebitis or deep vein thrombosis), osteoporosis, cancer, or have recently undergone surgery, you must consult your doctor before you inquire about any kind of massage therapy. Pregnant women should consult their doctor if enquiring about remedial massage during pregnancy – Blys provides pregnancy massage services to women in their second and third trimesters.

What can I expect from my remedial massage?

While it is important to communicate your limitations and preferences with your therapist throughout your home remedial massage, you should expect more intense pressure from a remedial massage. If you have any tightness, stiffness or pain in your muscles, expect that your massage therapist will find it and target it. This may be uncomfortable at times and your muscles will be challenged, but they will thank you afterwards.

How will I feel after a remedial massage?

You may be sore or stiff when you are off the table. This could persist for 24-48 post-massage. Don’t be alarmed by this; you will feel the benefits of a home remedial massage after your muscles have recuperated.

How should I prepare for my remedial massage?

If you know you’ll be eating before your home remedial massage, try to eat something light two hours prior. Remedial massage uses strong pressure, so be aware that you may experience pressure on your stomach, especially if your therapist is working anywhere on your back. Drink enough water to ensure you remain hydrated after your home remedial massage.

What are the potential benefits of a remedial massage?

Remedial massage aims to decrease tension, relieve pain and increase mobility. A deep tissue remedial massage will help break down muscle knots, stretch the fascia surrounding the muscles, and leave you feeling more flexible, limber and pain-free.
