Depending on the conditions, most of the time, the treatment could be a bit uncomfortable because we need to realign your muscles and fascia to make them move pain-free and within normal range. Your body and brain don't like to leave the lazy comfort zone, and discomfort starts to occur. If your body is good and healthy, you won't feel any pain during the remedial massage treatment.

The pain will be managed in an acceptable range during the treatment to get the best result. If you're in excruciating pain, the treatment will aim to reduce the pain and increase the pain-free range of motion ASAP. Do no harm is essential. Working with vulnerable persons minimises discomfort during the treatment but results in extended recovery time.

Yes, it's ordinary but not necessary. If you're new to remedial massage, the pain may last a couple of days or even a few weeks. Most of the time, it also decreases the original pain and improves the range of motion and movement stability. Our body requires inflammation signals to heal itself, like after good exercise, you might feel muscle soreness. After rest and recovery, you will feel stronger, and your muscles can work more efficient.

Pain is a signal for inflammation and part of the healing process. It's normal after the remedial massage, but many clients don't experience pain after the treatment.

It would be best if you made an effort to make progress. However, you will get injured when you experience too much pain during the treatment. Balance is fundamental. Too much or too less is not ideal. Too much, your body will give up easily. Too less, your body usually likes to be lazy and doesn't want to change or improve.

"It's whatever the experiencing person says it is, existing whenever and wherever the person says it does."

Pain is an essential mechanism in our body. It protects us away from danger.

When your hand touch a hot surface, your hand will experience hotness and pain, and your brain will control the hand away from the hot surface to prevent the hand be cooked.

When your back experience pain, most of the time, the reason is something went wrong, your brain wants to protect the spine to prevent further injury. Your brain is telling you by pain signal; please don't move. Your back needs help.

The nerve ending might be injured when you have an open wound injury or even a tiny cut. You will experience persistent pain because of the nerve in danger. Your brain wants you to pay attention to it to avoid further injury.

Yes. We do.
