Welcome to Armadale Massage Therapy located at Armadale Chiropractic Centre. Our new service, provided by and Fathma Nachiar, includes remedial and relaxation massage.
Remedial Massage is a treatment modality and form of deep tissue massage that manipulates the soft tissues of the body including movement for a specific therapeutic effect, rather than a general therapeutic effect.
It is focused on regaining normal muscle and soft tissue flexibility to assist recovery from or to help prevent injury. This form of massage works by increasing blood flow to the tissues, assisting with scar tissue breakdown, and encouraging lymphatic drainage of swelling and waste products.
The effect of this is normalised soft tissue flexibility and thus improved joint mobility. Soft tissue tension affects the normal position of the joints and associated nerve tissue. Therefore it is often involved in movement imbalances, postural dysfunctions and is almost always a contributing factor in musculoskeletal pain.
It compliments the chiropractic care available at the clinic. Dr. Michael Black is available to help you.
