Massage for Logan & Brisbane

At our Centre, we have 2 very specialised and qualified Massage Therapists that can give you the massage you love and need.

Remedial Massage

If you had a remedial massage, it would focus on the release of tension in your muscles. Your pain is mainly felt when your muscles become tense and rigid, which then causes these muscles to move unnaturally and uncoordinated.

• Benefits

  The benefits you would receive by having a remedial massage would include relaxed muscles, rejuvenation and a whole body experience of deep relaxation. Also you could avoid future injury as the muscles are not tense. In particular painful areas such as your neck and shoulders, lower back, and hip conditions can all have relief.

Musculoskeletal Therapy

Ideally this treatment has two components 1. TREATMENT of presenting injury/ illness & 2. TREATMENT to correct cause. It is important to understand that no single form of treatment will correct all or even the majority of musculoskeletal problems. A combination of different forms of treatment will usually give you the best results. At Emotional Balance we our experienced and fully qualified Therapists will be able to give you the RIGHT combination of treatment.

• Benefits

  With musculoskeletal therapy you will have the benefits of reduction or even stopping of pain in the effected are, and your muscles and bone structure will be in line again, giving you a more relaxed posture, which further aids feeling good in your body.

Muscle Energy Technique

Muscle Energy Technique has as one of its objectives the induced relaxation of hypertonic musculature (tight muscle) and where appropriate the subsequent stretching of that muscle. In other words, your muscles after this technique will be more relaxed and less tense then before.

• Benefits

  With Muscle Energy Technique your muscles will feel more relaxed and far less tense then before. The added benefit will be that your muscles will also remain more relaxed for some time after therapy, giving you a more long lasting relaxed feeling.

Postural Analysis

The postural analysis technique can expose your muscle imbalance pulling and affecting your skeleton.This then causes your skeleton out of alignment, causing pain and discomfort.

• Benefits

  With postural analysis, your body's position can be analysed and then more effective treatment can be administered.

Trigger Point Therapy

If you have suffered with chronic musculoskeletal pain for longer than 7 weeks, trigger points will be present in your body. But what are Trigger points you may ask? They are a hyperirritable spot within a muscle that causes the pain you are experiencing.

• Benefits

  To reduce the pain, trigger points must me eliminated by cold and stretch technique: soft tissue technique like massage, direct compression: myofascial technique (again soft tissue technique) and cupping: a traditional chinese method.
