Massage

We’re thrilled to have on board massage therapist Linda Benyunes.

While all our physiotherapists might provide massage as part of a wider treatment, Linda offers patients a dedicated knowledge of:

• Remedial massage
• Swedish massage
• Sports massage
• Lymphatic drainage
• Scar tissue release

Linda provides massage therapy at our practice and also offers home visits.

Remedial massage

Remedial massage is a deep massage that targets specific injuries, aches and pains.

Remedial massage is used to help:

• Relieve muscle pain and tension caused by overuse, injury or stress
• Restore flexibility to muscles and joints
• Alleviate back pain
• Break down scar tissue and fibrous tissue
• Prevent recurrence of an injury
• Boost recovery from surgery
• Alleviate tension headaches

It can be combined with stretching exercises, M.E.T.(Muscle Energy Technique) to help release tight muscles.

Swedish massage

Swedish massage is a relaxing, gentle and flowing type of massage that can help both emotional and physical stress.

It may also:

• Promote nerve, muscle and gland health
• Improve circulation
• Speed up recovery time from sport or other muscle strain

Linda holds a Diploma of Remedial Massage, Diploma of Fitness and is currently completing a bachelor of health science.
