How Remedial Massage Aids Injury Recovery
Recovering from an injury—whether it's a sports strain, workplace mishap, or a nagging flare-up—requires more than just rest. At Mixed Osteo Kensington, remedial massage is one of the most effective tools in the rehab process, helping patients not only heal faster but also return to full function with confidence.
How Does It Work?
Remedial massage targets the soft tissue structures affected by injury, such as muscles, fascia, tendons, and ligaments. By using specific techniques, it:
Improves blood flow, helping to deliver nutrients and oxygen to damaged tissue
Reduces swelling and inflammation, promoting quicker recovery
Breaks down scar tissue, restoring flexibility and reducing long-term pain
Activates the lymphatic system, aiding in waste removal from injured areas
Releases muscular tension that often builds up around injured joints
Benefits for All Injury Stages
Acute Stage (0–3 weeks): Gentle massage may help reduce swelling and protect surrounding tissues.
Sub-Acute Stage (3–6 weeks): Techniques target adhesions and improve circulation to promote healing.
Chronic Injuries: Remedial massage helps manage scar tissue, improves range of motion, and prevents re-injury.
Tailored Treatment at Mixed Osteo
Each injury is different, which is why our therapists at Mixed Osteo perform a thorough assessment before beginning any treatment. Your massage session may include a combination of deep tissue work, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and stretching techniques.
