How Much is the Student Clinic?
Our $40/hr or $70/2hrs student clinic is reasonably priced as this is a learning environment. Students are supervised while treating in the clinic, and your feedback is incredibly valuable. If you’ve not had a treatment with us before, please be aware that some time may be spent at the beginning of the appointment discussing injuries, concerns, treatment plans, and completing some physical assessments – depending on the type of treatment booked. This is a necessary step in ensuring the best outcomes for everyone.

What massage services do we provide?
Relaxation Massage
Relaxation Massage you may know as a full-body Swedish Massage. It is the most gentle of our treatment options. Relaxation massage has many proven health benefits, such as improving circulation, relieving tightness, reducing stress and anxiety, improving sleep and enhancing flexibility. This is a great treatment option for someone without serious pain, injury or dysfunction, who is just looking to relax and unwind.
Remedial Massage
The Diploma student has a higher level of training and a better understanding and application of functional anatomy. The focus in Remedial Massage is identifying and treating musculoskeletal dysfunctions. This means finding the cause of complaints eg. headaches, neck pain, chronic back pain, pelvic imbalance, or joint pain and correcting any dysfunction. Remedial is a more comprehensive treatment using a wider range of techniques.
Myotherapy
Myotherapy is the highest level of VET training in the manual therapies, where students use the same techniques as Physiotherapists. Students will be able to offer specialised treatment options in Dry Needling, cupping, strapping and taping, prescription of exercise for health and dysfunction and rehabilitation from injury, treatment of muscular dysfunction from physical and emotional stress, and chronic pain management.
