What is the difference between remedial and relaxation massage?

Remedial works on a specific problem - injury, chronic tension, restricted movement - and usually involves assessment and some discomfort. Relaxation massage is for general wellbeing. They are different services and should be priced and booked differently.

Can I claim massage on private health insurance?

Extras policies often cover remedial massage but not relaxation massage, and usually only when the therapist is a recognised provider with a qualifying association. Check the specific provider requirement.

Do I need a referral?

No for a private booking. Workers compensation and Medicare care plan claims need one.

Should a massage ever hurt?

Some discomfort during deep tissue work is normal and should be within what you can tolerate and breathe through. Sharp pain, or being told to endure it, is not.

About massage & spa in Burnie

Burnie is an industrial north-west coastal city with a deep-water port, set on a hillside above the water. It is one of the wettest, windiest parts of the state, and the weather is a genuine part of life rather than small talk. Homes range from older inner-city stock to hillside builds, and the surrounding country is dairy and forestry, so the city and its rural hinterland are closely connected.
