Our Techniques

Remedial massage

When muscles become knotted and tense or damaged, remedial massage provides a healing treatment that can be gentle or strong, deep or shallow. Remedial massage holistically treats the body. The massage therapist endeavours to identify the original biomechanical dysfunction, thus healing the cause of the disorder, as well as the symptoms.
Remedial massage uses several techniques to locate and repair damage to muscles, tendons and joints. Massage therapy supports and speeds up the body’s own repair mechanisms. A lubricating medium (usually oil) is applied directly on the skin. This ensures that the muscles associated with the disorder are deeply penetrated. Passive joint stretching moves are also used.

Pregnancy Massage

Pregnancy is life changing. It puts your body through a transformation to prepare you for the birth of your child. This process can take a toll on your body and aches and pains start to develop. To ensure you have a pleasant pregnancy we recommend you book in a pregnancy massage. At Dulwich Hill Chiropractic and Therapeutic Centre we have 4 qualified massage therapists who are experienced in pregnancy massage. Rest assured when you book with us that you are receiving the best of care. Pregnancy Massage has become something our clinic is known for, with over 200 women coming through our clinic for pregnancy care. Massage is also recommended for women wanting to conceive as it can help reduce stress and tension. Don’t forget to book after you give birth as it is vital to help your body return to where it was pre-conception.

Swedish massage

Swedish Massage is specifically used as a relaxation technique. Long strokes, kneading, tapping, friction, and vibration are the main styles of movement. It used to increase circulation and flexibility, soothe tense muscles, and de-stress.
