Your Therapist

I’m a remedial massage therapist providing practical, individualised treatment in a professional clinical setting. I take time to understand what is bothering you, how it is affecting your everyday activities and what you would like to improve.

My sessions focus on targeted, hands-on soft-tissue treatment. I work with areas of muscular tension and tightness, adjusting the depth and intensity of treatment to suit your needs and clinical presentation. To help manage symptoms and improve movement, I may incorporate joint mobilisation, gentle stretching and mobility work.

When it is appropriate for you, I can introduce strength and conditioning exercises, progressing them gradually to support longer-term improvements in how you move and function.

Remedial massage can be a useful option when you want focused hands-on attention to muscular tension, tightness or movement-related discomfort. It can also complement physiotherapy or other care you're already receiving.

My aim is to provide thoughtful, individualised care that focuses on the areas you are concerned about and helps you move with greater comfort and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful information about appointments, treatment, and what to expect when visiting RemedNQ.

Remedial massage may help manage muscular tension, postural tightness, reduced mobility, general soft-tissue discomfort, support local circulation and recovery from everyday physical stress. It is commonly sought for neck and shoulder tension, lower-back tightness, muscle soreness, and movement restriction.

Your initial appointment begins with a discussion about your health history, current concerns, and what you would like help with. Where appropriate, this is followed by a postural or movement assessment and targeted hands-on treatment.

Treatment is tailored to your presentation, comfort, and goals, and may include remedial massage, soft-tissue work, mobility-focused techniques, or gentle stretching. You are welcome to ask questions at any time, and pressure and techniques can be adjusted throughout your session following safe treatment progression. You may also be given simple practical advice or exercises to support your movement and recovery between appointments.

Appropriate draping is used throughout treatment, and only the area being treated is uncovered.

Appointments can be booked online using the Book Online button on this website. New clients should select the 60-minute Initial Consultation + Remedial Massage appointment. If you are unsure which session to choose or have a question before booking, please get in touch.

RemedNQ is registered to provide eligible remedial massage services for private health fund claims. Private health rebates may be available, depending on your fund and level of cover.

For your convenience, RemedNQ has a Tyro HealthPoint claiming terminal, allowing eligible claims to be processed on the spot at the time of payment. You simply pay any remaining gap amount.

Please check your individual level of cover, annual limits, and eligibility with your health fund before your appointment.

In some situations, treatment may need to be modified, postponed, or may not be appropriate on the day. Please let RemedNQ know when booking, or contact the clinic before your appointment, if you have a recent injury, fever, infection, unexplained swelling, recent surgery, a contagious skin condition, or another health concern that could affect treatment safety.

For example, if you have varicose veins, direct deep-pressure work over the affected area will be avoided and treatment may be adapted accordingly. Your safety, comfort, and appropriate care are RemedNQ’s primary priorities.

If you are unsure whether remedial massage is suitable for you, please contact RemedNQ or seek advice from your GP before booking.
