Massage & Remedial Massage Therapy in Richmond & Bundoora

Hands-on massage and remedial massage therapy to release tight muscles, improve mobility and support recovery.

If you're looking for a massage in Richmond or Bundoora, our qualified massage therapists offer remedial massage tailored to how your body feels on the day. Remedial massage is designed to enhance and rehabilitate the musculoskeletal system, including soft tissue areas such as tendons, fascia and ligaments.

Common bodily discomfort often originates from musculoskeletal issues, and our gentle, hands-on massage therapy aims to improve fluidity and mobility. We listen closely to your concerns and work with you to uncover the underlying causes of discomfort before tailoring your treatment.

Massage appointments are available at both of our Melbourne clinics — our Richmond clinic at 136 Lennox Street and our Bundoora clinic at 2 Noorong Avenue. Whether you're after a firmer remedial treatment for a specific problem or a massage to ease general tension, our therapists will adjust the approach to suit you.

Our approach

Myofascial release

Soft tissue therapy used for myofascial pain, chronic pain and muscle tightness by improving circulation and triggering the muscle's stretch reflex.

Sports massage

Pre-event work to promote circulation and limber muscles, and post-event work to support recovery.

Pregnancy massage

A specialised treatment plan with flexible positioning for maximum comfort for you and bub.

Dry needling

A fine solid needle placed into tissue to target and resolve trigger points.

Trigger point therapy

Direct pressure applied to tight, overused areas of muscle to help release tension.

Frequently asked questions

How long is a remedial massage appointment?
Appointments are typically available in 30, 45 and 60 minute options. Choose the length that suits when booking online.
Can I claim remedial massage through private health?
Yes, if your extras cover remedial massage. We have HICAPS at both clinics so you can claim instantly and pay only the gap.
Will the massage be painful?
Remedial massage can feel firm at times, but pressure is always adjusted to your comfort. Let your therapist know at any point during the treatment.
What's the difference between massage and remedial massage?
Massage is the broad term for hands-on soft tissue work. Remedial massage is a more clinical form of massage therapy that assesses and treats specific musculoskeletal problems. At Uprise Health our therapists are qualified in remedial massage, and every session is adapted to you — from a firm, targeted treatment to a more relaxing general massage.
