Remedial Massage Therapist (with HiCaps) VS Qualified Beauty Massage Therapist (no HiCaps)

A Remedial Massage Therapist (Chris) is a practitioner who deals with specific issues or dysfunctions, and who will formulate a plan especially for you and your health concerns  (as opposed to a massage therapist, who may give you a massage to relax and rejuvenate your tired muscles and mind). They will work with you by taking a precise history and performing a thorough assessment and evaluation. There will be notes and plans, as with what you’d see with any practitioner dealing with the treatment of a health concern. If you have particular muscle tension or chronic pain a remedial massage may be for you.

Your remedial massage therapist works to find the actual cause of your discomfort, and their therapy aims to eliminate the root cause, not just the symptoms. They will use a series of manual manipulation that may or may not be firm and forceful. Deep tissue massage itself is not remedial massage, but remedial massage might involve deep tissue massage. It may also involve passive stretching.

Your remedial massage therapist will assess where you need treatment and what may be causing your pain. They’ll perform some tests to see exactly which muscles are giving you trouble and will tailor a treatment plan to suit. The treatment itself may involve deep tissue work for short periods of time, but the results are definitely worth it!
