Remedial Massage salons and stylists across the UK
What to expect from a remedial massage appointment
Remedial massage targets a specific issue identified at consultation (a frozen shoulder, a stubborn lower-back pattern, neck strain), with a treatment plan rather than a one-off. The therapist runs a movement and posture assessment, applies deep techniques to the affected tissue, and prescribes home exercises between sessions. A typical session runs sixty minutes, and the plan is often six to ten sessions across two to three months.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between remedial and sports massage?
Remedial massage targets a specific clinical issue (frozen shoulder, chronic lower-back pattern, neck strain) with a treatment plan over multiple sessions. Sports massage is broader, focused on training recovery and general muscle maintenance.
How many remedial-massage sessions will I need?
Most plans run six to ten sessions over two to three months. The therapist agrees a realistic outcome at the first assessment and reviews progress every three to four sessions.
Do I need a referral for remedial massage?
Not usually. Most UK remedial-massage therapists work directly with clients and coordinate with a GP, physiotherapist or osteopath as needed. Bring any imaging reports or relevant medical letters to the first session.
How much does a remedial-massage course cost?
Individual sessions typically run fifty to one hundred pounds. A six-to-ten session course runs three hundred to nine hundred. Many therapists offer package pricing at a discount. Insurance reimbursement may apply where the therapist is a recognised practitioner.
Will my private health insurance cover remedial massage?
Some plans (Bupa, AXA, Aviva) cover remedial massage when delivered by a qualified, accredited therapist with a registered code. Check your specific policy for excess and per-session limits, and ask the therapist for their insurance code at booking.
