What They’re Saying
How does it work?
I tailor each individual treatment to each client. An assessment to begin with, listen to the clients input on pain/tension/observations, and apply techniques depending on the type of tightness or tenderness. Client feedback is essential during and after the session.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
I'm pregnant, can I still hire you?
We have a therapeutic pillow to use for stomach/side lying so absolutely yes!
I'm post operation, can I still hire you?
A letter from your doctor is essential but we can adjust table height and comfort using props, so yes!
Health Fund Claims / HiCaps
You will be able to claim from the clinic on the spot, and then claim manually from all mobile/temp clinic treatments. Provider numbers are written on receipt on the day of the treatment. Clients then contact their health fund to claim via app/phone or in person.
How often should I get a massage?
Everyone is different and depends on the issue… Our advice is;
Acute injury? Sometimes 2/3 days later or at the most a week to follow up on the 1st massage.
Chronic or aiming for a maintenance; 7-10days, then 14-21 days, then 30+ days. This way you can let your body tell you. If you feel the body’s old patterns returning, then book just prior to that feeling. Once maintaining (approx 5 + treatments) I often recommend 90mins fortnightly or monthly, as this way there are less appointments, enough time to treat the whole body and you left to feel amazing for longer.
What do I wear?
Underwear that is comfortable and what level of clothes removal down to underwear all depends on you. We may have to move you around so its not uncommon to leave the bra on. Full covering towel techniques are maintained always during the clinic.
Dry needles…what are they?
We always use a once only use, sterilized needle that are disposed of in a sharps container after use.
Needles are the same as what an Acupuncturist uses but we aim for the belly of the muscle or trigger points to alleviate muscle pain and possible dysfunction.
You can totally decline of the use of needles in your treatment!
