Remedial Massage Therapy
Remedial massage is a targeted treatment that assesses and addresses muscle, tendon, ligament, and connective tissue dysfunction to support rehabilitation, reduce pain, and improve mobility.
Using a combination of pressure, movement, and soft tissue techniques, our therapists aim to restore healthy tissue function, enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and assist recovery from injury. Techniques may involve hands, elbows, forearms, or mechanical aids, and are tailored to the client’s needs.
At ONE HEALTH, our qualified remedial massage therapists perform thorough assessments before treatment to ensure therapy is safe, effective, and aligned with your goals. We work to rebalance muscle tension, improve joint alignment, and support healing through increased blood and lymphatic flow.
All our remedial massage therapists meet Australian national training and education standards and deliver evidence-based care focused on optimal outcomes.

Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession that assesses, diagnoses, treats, and works to prevent disease and disability through physical means.
Mike has a keen interest in Neuromuscular Therapy Technique, which is a manual therapy technique which focuses on how a person moves in their functional day-to-day activities uncovering any dysfunctions and applying manual treatment and advice to help correct and improve the individuals lifestyle.
With appropriate physical assessment, this approach can help recover from injury, reduce pain and stiffness, and increase mobility. Neuromuscular Therapy technique specifically benefits chronic (long-term) issues where your body had developed unhelpful patterns in protecting previously acute issues which has then created this longer-term issue.
This approach can also help current issues and also help prevent further injury from occurring. Mike uses some manual therapies, exercise programs to treat a variety of dysfunctions in the musculoskeletal & neurological systems.

Psychology
Life can be stressful and sometimes takes a toll on one’s health and wellbeing. Stress can negatively impact sleep, mood, thinking and relating skills. Prolonged, unmanaged stress can lead to more complicated problems. Talking to a registered psychologist can help.
Psychologists are trained to listen and help clients find new ways of thinking and behaving. The effectiveness of psychological therapies can be tested over time.
Therapies that are shown to be effective are called evidence-based therapies. Cognitive-Behavioural Therapies (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapies (ACT) are examples of evidence-based psychological therapies because studies show that they are effective in treating a range of psychological problems such as anxiety and depression.
