Remedial Massage
Massage Preston
High level athletes are aware of the value your body can get out of early intervention when a pain/niggle occurs. This should reduce and prevent future breakdowns. Anyone who does long working days can also benefit from this principle if they put it into practice.
We house some of the best massage therapists in Preston and Melbourne alike. Professional athletes trust their bodies with our therapists. Book an appointment for a massage with Lauren, Stef or Hiromi now!
If you have stubborn pain or tension from exercise, massage can help reduce your symptoms.
Is Remedial Massage for you?
Are you considering whether Remedial Massage is the right fit for your needs? This form of massage is designed to address specific injuries or conditions you might be dealing with.
If you’re grappling with issues like low back or neck pain, Remedial Massage could offer substantial relief. The targeted techniques employed during this type of massage can help alleviate the symptoms associated with these discomforts, potentially providing you with much-needed comfort and improved mobility.
Joint pain is another area where Remedial Massage can make a positive impact. By applying precise methods, this type of massage can contribute to reducing the discomfort you might be experiencing in your joints.
Moreover, Remedial Massage isn’t just about symptom relief – it also aims to enhance your overall joint mobility. This means that along with mitigating pain, you might experience a greater range of motion in the affected areas.
Incorporating Exercise Prescription is another facet of the Remedial Massage appointment. Your therapist can provide guidance on specific exercises to complement the massage treatment, aiding in your recovery and maintaining the benefits gained from the massage.
Is Sports Massage for you?
Sports massage is a specialised treatment designed to cater to the needs of active individuals and athletes. It goes beyond mere relaxation and focuses on enhancing physical performance, reducing fatigue, and addressing muscle-related issues.
If you’re someone who engages in regular physical activities, whether it’s running, training at the gym, or participating in sports, sports massage can offer significant benefits. It aims to prepare your body for optimal performance by addressing areas of muscle tension, promoting flexibility, and improving overall muscle function.
One of the key advantages of sports massage is its ability to reduce fatigue. Intense physical activities can leave your muscles feeling tired and worn out. Sports massage employs techniques that target muscle fatigue and promote quicker recovery, allowing you to bounce back faster after rigorous workouts or training sessions.
Furthermore, sports massage is effective in relieving muscle swelling and tension. After engaging in strenuous exercises, muscles can become inflamed and tense. Sports massage techniques work to alleviate these issues, promoting better circulation and assisting in the natural healing process.
Sports Massage key points:
- Utilising deep tissue pressure to dissolve adhesions
- Clears out muscle toxins effectively
- Shortens recovery time from injuries
- Balances out muscle imbalances
- Our massage therapists have an athletic background, granting them an insightful grasp of the advantages of precise exercise prescription
- Sports massage is a highly valued technique embraced by all our skilled massage practitioners at Advanced Health Preston.
What is the difference between a Regular and Sports Massage?
Sports massages are conducted by massage clinicians with experience in managing recreational and elite athletes. Sports massage can provide you with a superior method to help prepare your body for sporting events and recovery after sporting events. Many long distance runners receive Sports massage in the lead up to and after races. Sports massage can help prevent injuries and loss of mobility, boost performance and extend the overall life of your sporting career. We can also couple Dry needling into your “Sports Massage” Session.
Is Sports Massage just for athletes?
Although sports massage was originally designed for athletes, this form of treatment is also relevant for those experiencing chronic pain, injury or range-of-motion issues. It is equally effective and enjoyable for those seeking a more rigorous, deep tissue treatment.
Is Pregnancy Massage therapy available?
Absolutely, we provide Pregnancy Massage.
Pregnancy massage holds significance for the well-being of expectant mothers and makes for a wonderful gift choice for baby showers. Prenatal massage plays a role in rebalancing your joints, muscles, and soft tissues during this transformative phase. Additionally, it offers a sense of grounding and comfort, addressing the emotional challenges that frequently accompany pregnancy.
What are the benefits of Pregancy Massage?
- Relieving Muscle Tension: Pregnancy often triggers discomfort due to shifts in posture and added weight. Pregnancy Massage targets these areas to ease muscle tension and provide relaxation.
- Alleviating Back Pain: As the belly grows, it can strain the lower back. Pregnancy Massage focuses on specific muscles, enhancing circulation in the region and potentially reducing back pain.
- Improving Circulation: Pregnancy Massage enhances blood and lymphatic flow, potentially reducing swelling in the extremities and promoting overall well-being.
- Stress Management: Pregnancy can induce emotional and physical stress. Massage encourages relaxation, releases endorphins (feel-good hormones), and aids in stress and anxiety management.
- Enhancing Sleep: Pregnancy Massage encourages relaxation and can contribute to better sleep quality, often disrupted during pregnancy.
- Joint Pain Relief: Hormonal changes can lead to joint discomfort. Massage can help ease joint pain by reducing muscle tension and improving joint flexibility.
- Preparing for Labor: Massage techniques promote relaxation and body awareness.
- Better Posture: Pregnancy Massage addresses muscle imbalances and tension caused by bodily changes, contributing to improved posture.
- Increased Body Awareness: Pregnancy Massage helps mothers-to-be connect with their changing bodies, fostering a positive body image.
- Reduced Swelling: Edema, or swelling, is common during pregnancy. Massage can help minimise fluid retention and improve circulation, potentially reducing swelling.
How will I be positioned during the Pregancy Massage and who is the therapist?
During the Prenatal Massage, your therapist will collaborate with you to ensure comfortable positioning, often utilising specialised pregnancy cushions. Our skilled Prenatal Massage Practitioners, Hiromi and Lauren, boast 13 years of experience in this massage sub-specialty
Is Corporate Massage in Preston for me?
- Tailored for office workers grappling with postural strain
- Targets the notorious 3 pm office-related neck, shoulder, and back discomfort
- Effective in alleviating persistent aches, contributing to enhanced productivity
This specific massage is designed to address the unique challenges faced by office workers who often experience postural strain due to prolonged desk work. This strain can manifest as the common “3 pm dull ache in the neck, shoulders, and back”, which is all too familiar to many desk-bound individuals.

This targeted approach is aimed at reducing the persistent discomfort that can hamper your comfort and focus during work hours.
Moreover, this tailored massage doesn’t just alleviate the immediate discomfort – it’s designed to promote lasting relief.

FAQs about Remedial Massage
This is worked out on a case by case basis. Generally speaking, we can get a marked improvement in 2-5 appointments.
A session consists of massage, time for you to dress and undress and time to communicate with the therapist to make your massage truly customised. This is done to ensure each and every massage session you receive from Advanced Health exceeds your expectations.
Clinical, Deep tissue, Sports, Prenatal Lymphatic Drainage and Corporate Remedial Massage are all included in the price of your visit. Before your session begins, you and your therapist will discuss which modalities are right for you to get the most benefit from your massage.
Sure, if you’d like to talk, go right ahead. The important thing to remember is that this treatment is all about you relaxing and enjoying the experience.
In many instances, people may feel more relaxed starting off talking, and as the massage progresses, enter a quieter state of relaxation.
Most importantly, there are certain times when you need to speak up. Let the massage therapist know if you get too warm or too cold, if the room is too bright, or if the pressure needs to be changed (lighter or deeper). If something is not working for you, please let your massage therapist know
It varies from person to person. If you are just looking for some occasional relaxation, then a session every 4-6 weeks may be fine for you. However, if you are looking to address a specific injury, then it is recommended to go more frequently at first, then slowly taper down to a maintenance schedule. Sometimes more frequent 60-minute sessions can be effective until your goals are met.
Frequency of sessions should be discussed with your massage therapist after your treatment.
30 minutes $60
45 minutes $75
60 minutes $90
75minutes $105
90 minute $115
Depending on what you choose either 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes, 75 minutes or 90 minute massage appointments.
