Remedial Massage

Oceanside Chiropractic has remedial massage treatments to help you feel better. Our massage therapists get right to the point in dealing with your pain or stiffness.

What Is Remedial Massage?

Remedial massage offers a combination of massage therapy, cupping and dry needling to help your muscles and body feel great again. Our massage therapists are trained to release any stiffness or tightness that could be causing you pain or discomfort. These types of massages can also promote healing in your muscle fibres.

Whereas chiropractic adjustments focus on the hard tissue of the body, such as the vertebrae and joints of the body and spine, massage focuses on the soft tissues, like muscles and tendons

What is the difference between Remedial Massage and Relaxation Massage Therapy?

Remedial massage treatments and relaxation massage therapy are similar. Remedial massage is a more complex massage with a holistic approach to the treatment. Relaxation massage therapy, however, is mostly there to make you feel good without really fixing the causes of the pain or tension.
