Medical massage is clinically targeted therapy for specific conditions and injuries.
Medical massage, also called clinical massage, is outcome-driven manual therapy aimed at a specific condition, injury or pain pattern. It is non-invasive, drug-free and delivered under a structured treatment plan, with your goals and progress reviewed at each visit.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a regular massage and a medical massage?
A regular massage focuses on general relaxation and tension relief. Medical massage is clinically targeted at specific conditions, using assessment, set goals and a structured plan.
How much does medical massage cost in Kenya?
Cost depends on your condition and plan. Sessions are 60 minutes, and we recommend a 30-minute initial consultation so we can confirm pricing before treatment begins.
Do I need a referral?
No referral is required, but please share any diagnoses, medication and recent imaging so we can treat safely.
