Based on the areas of concern you have, a combination of therapies are offered.  During each session the 'big picture' of an issue, including the strength and weakness of the muscles involved, will be reviewed and a strategy for recovery discussed.

To book your clinic session phone the clinic on 9715 3155.

Remedial Massage: The most widely practised western-style of massage, remedial massage incorporates scientifically proven techniques to alleviate discomfort and pain in the body's musculo-skeletal system, which in turn enhances the whole person. Generally slower and deeper strokes are utilised and I often incorporate "sliding cups" into the treatment (see Cupping page).

Sports Massage: More focused muscle work where muscles are broadened as well as stretched to assist contractility.  Sports massage helps fine-tune muscles to maintain condition, reduce injury, speed rehabilitation and improve performance.  "Sliding cups" are often incorporated into the treatment for a deep release and for those tender areas that don't like pressure.

Swedish Massage: The European style created in the 19th Century and based on original Chinese movements. These light and generally gentle strokes are the basis for most 'western' styles of massage and are great for general relaxation.  To rejuvenate the face, I use minature cups (see Cupping page).

Mobile Massage: A limited come-to-you service is provided.  See Hours & Fee Structure for further information or call me on 0419 447 224.

Seated/Corporate Massage: also referred to as Indian Massage or Champissage. This effective, therapeutic but non-remedial, treatment will leave recipients feeling completely relaxed as it has the power to remove the modern day stress and tension that we store in our necks and shoulders.  See 'Corporate and Promotional' page for options.

This type of massage does not use oils/creams and does not involve removing clothing or lying down - treatments are all done sat on a chair and if suitable using a portable headrest.  Therefore it is good for the pregnant, the vulnerable and the busy - making it an ideal ”corporate” massage.

Trigger Point: A method of releasing muscle tension that can be incorporated into Remedial or Sports massage. A myofascial trigger point is an irritable point within a taut band of muscle and/or associated fascia. The spot is painful on compression - the textbooks refer to it as 'exquistie pain' - and can evoke referred pain eg you might feel pain in your upper arm but the TP could be in your scapula (shoulder blade).  Once released tremendous relief is to be expected.

Muscle Monitoring: Not massage but a tool I use in clinic, which is the most basic test used by qualified Kinesiologists.   It is used to elicit information from your body's energy to help with the healing processes and can incorporate a simple energy balancing technique.
