What is remedial massage?

Remedial massage is a therapeutic approach that targets muscles, connective tissues and body areas affected by strain, injury or overuse. It’s a great way to address chronic pain, muscle pain and muscular imbalances while improving overall muscle function. This form of massage therapy is particularly beneficial for pregnant and postpartum women, offering relief from the aches and pains that often accompany these life stages.

A thoughtful gift for expecting or new mothers

Looking for a thoughtful gift for an expecting or new mother? A remedial massage at Hatched House makes an excellent choice. It’s a meaningful way to support a loved one during the physical demands of pregnancy or postpartum recovery, offering relief from pain, muscle tension and stress.

Pregnancy massage

Pregnancy often comes with muscle tension, swelling and posture changes, leading to discomfort in the lower back, hips and legs. A remedial massage, or deep tissue massage, can help reduce pain, improve joint mobility and promote relaxation. Many clients find regular remedial or relaxation massages during pregnancy help them manage stress and improve their overall health. 

With the help of our specialised pillows, pregnant women can lie face down safely, allowing your remedial massage therapist to effectively target key areas of discomfort.

Postpartum massage

After childbirth, your body changes significantly as it heals and adjusts. A remedial massage is an excellent way to support your recovery, helping with issues like tight shoulders from breastfeeding, nerve pain and general muscle tension.

A postnatal remedial massage also aids in the recovery of damaged tissues and helps restore muscle function. Our experienced remedial massage therapists use several different techniques to alleviate the discomfort many new mothers experience, helping to repair damaged areas and return the body to its pre-pregnancy state as much as possible.

Frequently asked questions

  • Yes, remedial massage is eligible for private health insurance rebates, provided it’s included in your level of cover. The exact rebate amount and eligibility will depend on your specific health insurance policy and provider. We recommend checking with your insurer to confirm the details of your coverage before booking. We’re happy to provide the necessary receipts and information to ensure you can claim your rebate with ease.

  • The frequency of remedial massage depends on your individual needs and health goals. For ongoing pain or injury recovery, weekly sessions may be beneficial, while for general maintenance or stress relief, a session every few weeks may be enough. Your therapist will recommend a treatment plan based on your condition.

  • Remedial massage can involve deep pressure to target problem areas, so you may experience some discomfort, especially if you're dealing with muscle tension or injury. However, your therapist will always work within your comfort level and communicate with you throughout the session to ensure the pressure is appropriate.

  • During your session, your therapist will assess your posture and movement to identify any areas of tension or discomfort.
