Remedial massage in Albion

How a session works

Every appointment starts with a short conversation. Rafael asks where it hurts, how long it's been going on, and what makes it better or worse, then checks how you move.

The treatment is built around what he finds. Most sessions combine:

• Deep tissue work on tight, overworked muscles
• Trigger point therapy for knots that refer pain elsewhere
• Myofascial release for stiffness that limits movement
• Stretching and simple advice to keep the improvement between sessions

Pressure is firm where it needs to be, and Rafael checks it with you throughout.

What people come in for

Neck and shoulder tension, lower back pain, sciatica-type pain down the leg, tension headaches, tight hips, and recovery from training. If you're not sure whether massage is right for your problem, call or text and ask.

How long to book

30 minutes covers one area. 60 minutes suits one or two problem areas. 90 minutes gives time for several areas or long-standing pain, and is Rafael's recommendation for a first visit.

Health fund rebates

Remedial massage can be claimed on most extras policies that include it. You'll receive an invoice with all the details your fund needs, then claim through your fund's app or website.
