Remedial Massage Toowoomba
Unlike deep tissue massage, Remedial Massage is a treatment oriented therapy in which dysfunction in the muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia (connective tissues) of the body are both systematically assessed in order to identify the cause of an issue and then treated by working on the specific areas of the musculoskeletal system in need of attention. Remedial massage addresses and treats the source of the pain, therefore, providing relief from any resulting symptoms you may be experiencing.

How Regular Massage Biochemically Benefits the body
In treating pain-causing injuries, with the healing touch of Remedial Massage, physical illness and mental health can be restored. Symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression (all diseases of poor mental health) may all be alleviated through regular massage therapy. Through the use of strategic touch, massage pushes down on the nerve cell receptors under the skin resulting in the activation of the nervous system and stimulation of mood-enhancing chemicals such as dopamine or serotonin to be subsequently released throughout the body. Remedial Massage also generates a calming effect through the stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system which results in the reduction of the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline. Massage also stimulates the release of natural endorphins which creates a natural high and can also relieve the body of any pain it may be experiencing. Brain activity is also altered through regular massage, as it increases the alpha brain waves present in a state of relaxation. Individuals are likely to also experience a stabilization of blood sugar, increased immunity, and improved lung function from regular massage therapy sessions.
