Tranquility Health: Massage Therapy Victoria

Registered Massage Therapy treatments are distinct from other unregulated forms of manual therapy, such as Thai massage and bodywork, in that they are based on evidence-focused models designed to promote the rehabilitation of common muscular and physiological imbalances. 

Registered Massage Therapists are highly trained in a variety of massage techniques, including relaxation massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and neuromuscular therapy. They are also skilled in prenatal and infant massage, as well as treating headaches, whiplash, concussions, and other conditions. Additionally, your Registered Massage Therapist is an excellent resource to learn more about hydrotherapy techniques and homecare modalities that can help accelerate the healing process.

Every therapeutic massage session is a unique experience. At the beginning of each appointment, therapists gather some background information about your current condition as well as any important events that may be contributing to your symptoms. 

Patients often undergo a series of orthopedic assessments to provide further insight into the specific muscle groups that are being affected. Your therapist will then discuss the specifics of the proposed treatment plan with you, taking the time to ensure that you understand what to expect during treatment and that you can provide proper informed consent before the treatment begins.
