A nice massage can be very relaxing but a therapeutic massage by the professionals at Wholistic Health Centre in Sutherland Shire can be the answer to the prayers of someone suffering from any of a wide range of muscle, ligament, tendon, and connective tissue disorders. Sutherland massage services at our Kareela location, are tailored to the needs of our patients. Here is a brief description.

Sutherland Massage Services

The type of massage therapy that we will recommend at Wholistic Health Centre will be based on a professional evaluation of your condition. Thus your massage therapy may consist of long strokes, gentle circular movements, and vibration or tapping. Alternatively, your Sutherland massage services may require attention to deeper muscle and connective tissue injuries and consist of more powerful strokes. How much of the body requires massage will also depend on your specific needs. Sometimes we focus just on trigger points to loosen up tight muscle fibres caused by injuries or repetitive use. Here are the types of massage therapy that we offer our Sutherland clients.

Remedial Massage Therapy

This is the mainstay for treating injuries and assisting in the care of illnesses. For our clients in Sutherland massage of this type ranges from superficial, mild, and relaxing to deep with powerful strokes. The goal is to improve muscle and joint range of motion, alleviate pain, speed soft tissue repair, loosen up adhesions, and get the body back to a normal state of function. Along the way remedial massage therapy also calms and relaxes as it reduces inflammation and improves blood flow.

Sports Massage Therapy

For the athlete in Sutherland massage therapy or, more specifically, sports massage can be an integral part of a training programme. Athletic massage optimises performance, alleviates injuries, prevents injuries by increasing flexibility and reducing the incidence of muscle tears and pulls, and offers calmness and relaxation prior to competitive events. Those who integrate sports massage into their training report less fatigue and less of a problem with delayed muscle soreness by adding massage both before and after strong workouts and events.

Lymphatic Drainage Massage

At Wholistic Health Centre we provide lymphatic drainage massage. This treatment assists in keeping the lymphatic system function operating at its peak. This is a gentle massage therapy that helps maintain immune system health, increases vitality and energy, improves flexibility, detoxifies, relieves pain, relaxes, and helps treat conditions like diabetes and allergies. The lymphatic system complements your arteries and veins. And protects against infectious disease, helps maintain body fluid levels, and absorbs fats from the digestive tract. With injury or disease this system can become blocked or not drain well. For our clients in Sutherland massage of this type can be an excellent assistance in treating a variety of conditions.

We have HiCaps available and accept most health funds.
