Remedial vs relaxation: which should you book?
Both can feel great, but the right choice depends on whether you want targeted treatment or a calmer full-body reset.

Remedial vs relaxation: which should you book?
Lotus Thai Massage Katoomba guide • Updated 6 April 2026
A simple way to choose: if you want specific treatment for a problem area, start by asking about remedial. If you mostly want to unwind, choose relaxation.
Choose remedial if…
You have a specific issue you want to focus on, such as lower back tightness, shoulder restriction, postural tension or a recurring sore area.
- More targeted treatment style
- Useful when one area clearly needs attention
- Best to call first if you have health fund or receipt questions
Choose relaxation if…
Your main goal is to slow down, settle stress and leave feeling mentally lighter as well as physically looser.
- Gentle to moderate pressure
- Good for switching off after travel or a busy week
- Ideal when you want an overall body reset
Quick rule
Specific tight area → ask about remedial. General unwind → choose relaxation.
If you want firmer full-body pressure for stubborn knots, deep tissue may sit between the two depending on how your body feels.
