Sydney Central Therapies

Massage

Sydney Central Therapies provides three different styles of massage therapy: Sports, Remedial and Swedish Massage. We have been operating for several years and have developed a comprehensive approach to what we do, in that we don't just treat an individual and send them on their way, but talk through the possible causes of pre-existing conditions and find solutions to help prevent their recurrence or lessen their severity.

 

Sports Massage is a type of soft-tissue treatment which caters for active sportspeople. It consists of techniques designed to alleviate the tension created by a highly active lifestyle or a heavy training program. This style of massage is especially beneficial for serious athletes and for those who work out regularly, whose exercise regimes place a high demand on their musculoskeletal system. It can be used to treat andprevent conditions such as shin splints or cramps; equally, it will help maintain the body's optimal condition for sport and exercise.

Remedial Massage is useful for anyone suffering sports- or postural-related injuries, such as muscular tightness or knots, sprains, stiffness, lactic acid build-up, back pain and headaches. Its primary purpose is to relieve muscular tension and restore the soft tissue of the body to its optimal state. It is a deeper treatment than a Swedish massage but they are often used in combination to achieve the best results

Swedish Massage is a style of massage treatment specifically designed for relaxation. It involves the use of specialised oils and techniques tailored for the release of tension. This is the perfect way to relieve stress and tension headaches and to wind down after a busy period of time.
