MEDICAL MASSAGE USTER
A medical massage is intended to solve specific health problems and help with chronic pain or after injuries and operations. Medical massage also focuses on improving mobility. A medical massage is often performed on the advice of a doctor.
A medical history is taken and the various techniques that are considered most effective for the individual problem are combined. These techniques are, for example, classic massage, fascia therapy, deep tissue massage and trigger point massage.
Classic massage, on the other hand, is aimed at treating general tension and is intended to increase relaxation and well-being and reduce stress.

What’s the procedure of a medical massage at Origin Uster?
At the beginning of the therapy session, you and your therapist will have an initial consultation to discuss the main aspects of your state of health. This conversation usually lasts between 5 and 20 minutes and serves to clarify the goals of the treatment.
You can then undress at your leisure and lie down on the treatment table.
The treatment will be adapted and carried out according to the preferences discussed beforehand. Your therapist will be available to answer any questions or comments you may have.
At the end of the session, appointments for further sessions can be made if desired.
How many treatments does it usually take?
Normally between 1-6 treatments are necessary to achieve the desired result. However, this depends entirely on the individual complaints. In the event that there is still no improvement after 3 treatments, we will evaluate whether another therapist may be able to help you better with your problem.
What is the difference between a classic and a medical massage?
Medical massage deals with specific health complaints and is mainly used for chronic conditions or after injuries and operations. In medical massage, classical massage techniques are only used if they are considered to be effective in solving the problem.
Classical massage is used for general tension, often in the shoulder, back, neck or leg area. The focus is on relaxation, well-being and stress reduction.
