What conditions can remedial massage help with?

Is remedial massage painful?
Some discomfort may be experienced, especially when addressing deep-seated tension. However, therapists adjust pressure to ensure client comfort. If anything feels like too much during your session, say so — pressure is adjusted to suit you.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies based on individual needs. Your therapist will recommend a treatment plan after the initial assessment.
Can I claim remedial massage on my health insurance?
