Remedial or Deep Tissue Massage
Deep and firm pressure to influence the tight muscle fibres to release the tension under the muscle group.
Pregnancy Massage
Massage will be performed either in side-lying or on our pregnancy belly pillow (has a cut out for the baby, so lying on tummy is feasible). Massage reduces peripheral swelling, soothes the nervous system, helps to prevent insomnia, muscle cramps and back pain.

This also applies to cases of ‘no-show’. HICAPS available for Health Fund Rebates. Please check with your health fund for eligibility for remedial massage rebate.
