Remedial massage
What is remedial massage, and how can it benefit you?
Remedial massage is a specialised form of massage therapy designed to target specific areas of tension, discomfort, or injury within the body.
Unlike traditional relaxation massage, which primarily focuses on relaxation, remedial massage aims to address underlying musculoskeletal issues to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and promote overall healing.
By utilising various techniques such as deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, joint mobility and stretching, a remedial massage therapist can effectively release tight muscles, reduce inflammation, and restore balance to the body. This targeted approach makes remedial massage particularly beneficial for addressing a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, sports injuries, postural imbalances, and stress-related tension.
I'm Sarah. At this practice, I'm dedicated to helping you achieve optimal health and vitality through personalised remedial massage treatments. As an experienced therapist I take the time to understand your unique concerns and goals, ensuring that each session is tailored to effectively address your specific needs.
There are many conditions that respond exceptionally well with remedial massage therapy. However, more complex issues will require a multidisciplinary approach for effective long term results. I recommended that you begin the treatment process with a comprehensive assessment and treatment plan from your primary health care provider. I always welcome a collaborative approach with other qualified health professionals. Together we can optimise your ability to attain your health goals.

Testimonials
Sarah's terrific remedial massage has hit the spot with providing pain relief and comfort for my back issue. She has a wealth of knowledge in musculature and skeletal function and intuitively knew how to treat me. Sarah has provided me with on going pain relief and advise on how to holistically manage my fitness regime, to better suit my issue.
Both me and my partner have had massages from Sarah... And my god, it's the best massage either of us have ever had. Absolutely not relaxing, but she keeps you chatting away through the pain of getting in to the knots and you leave feeling like a new person (who can touch your toes again and all those things you'd been too sore to do).
I've been receiving treatment from Sarah for about 5 years. I used to see her when she worked at a well-known and well-respected health centre local to me. When she set out to establish her own business, although her new practice is a distance from where I live, I reached out to her to continue treatment as there is no one quite like her for remedial massage.
I've had major and minor injuries over the years, due to work load my body hasn't been in the best shape. Thank you to Sarah for finding the main problems with my lower back and legs, I have great functionality now. Highly recommend Wholelistic Fitness to get you moving in the right direction!
Sarah is a fantastic therapist, as an athlete herself, she understands where active clients come from and she's great at identifying their needs and areas of work. I'd recommend her, especially if you are a sports person.
I had a massage from the wonderful Sarah, and OMG I now feel fantastic. Sarah really knows her stuff and is very educational. She also has many good connections in the wellness area and very passionate about helping in anyway she can. Highly Recommend!
Thank you Sarah for seriously the best remedial massage I've EVER had. I didn't want to get off the table. Looking forward to coming back for more. Sitting at my desk for a couple of years has really had an impact on my body. You made the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable.
Was in so much pain and she helped so much. especially after regular treatment for my legs due to dance. I swear she has healing hands.
