We love what we do and we provide much more than just a treatment.

At Body Align Myotherapy & Massage we focus on your individual needs and work with you to achieve their health and lifestyle goals. We deliver experienced, high-quality soft tissue treatments incorporating a variety of modalities. We are passionate and committed to treating and the cause of your pain, not just managing your symptoms, and we have an exceptional reputation for this. We will educate you on your condition and provide rehabilitation and corrective exercises to eliminate the pain and dysfunction from returning.
We look forward to helping you achieve a happier, healthier, pain-free and fully functioning lifestyle again.

If you would like to have a chat with us first about your condition and find out how we can help you, please fill out our contact us form, and we will organise a free phone consultation.

massage

We are proud to offer relaxation, deep tissue and remedial massage to help treat a wide range of injuries and concerns. Massage is so beneficial for releasing muscle tension, improving movement, relieving stress and is wonderful for overall well-being. We will consult with you at the beginning of your session to ensure that we are providing you with the most suitable treatment for you on the day and our added luxuries of heated tables, beautiful blankets, essential oils and hot towels will have you leaving the clinic feeling renewed and revitalised.

pregnancy

Pregnancy is truly a beautiful and amazing time in a woman’s life. We are here to help you through this exciting time. Our therapists have done further training in pregnancy to provide you with either massage or Myotherapy for unwanted aches and pains.

 

I've had great results from Rebecca, who treated my adductor tear. I'm running with no pain now, and her advice has also been excellent for improving my training. I'd highly recommend her.

A simply beautiful environment, I booked in to see Lauren for a deep tissue massage and came out a new person! Not only are Lauren’s skills exceptional she has an extremely wonderful bedside manner and I felt comfortable enough to enter a deep state of relax. She gave me advice afterwards on how to help my shoulder in between treatments and nothing was too much trouble for her. A truly wonderful experience that I recommend to anyone.

I visited Body Align last week after experiencing severe headaches for a month, I had an appointment with Kym and she got straight to the source of my pain after asking me a few questions. Not only did I leave feeling so much better, my headaches have quickly eased and the exercises she advised me to do have helped so much! Kym is amazing and extremely knowledgeable, I’m so grateful I went to see her. The clinic is also gorgeous and a relaxing environment and very private.

Been going to Body Align Myotherapy and Massage for years. All practitioners are very professional and knowledgeable and have always helped me to recover quickly from whatever ailment I’ve suffered Have recently seen Rebecca for plantar fasciitis problem and I’m happy to report the problem has resolved with Rebecca’s skilful treatment and exercise prescription. Have also seen Rebecca for neck issues which have also recovered well. Would highly recommend seeing any of the practitioners at Body Align

Lynette is the best Myo practitioner from whom I’ve ever received treatment. (I’m old-ish and high-maintenance, so I know!) She is skilled, focussed, sensitive, and effective. And that's aside from it being delightful to spend an hour with her.

Abby and the team at Body Align are amazing. I first saw Abby when I was pregnant and suffering from debilitating back pain, she relieved me of this and many other aches and pains pre and post pregnancy. Her care and quality of treatment are second to none. I could not recommend their service more.

Ashlee HaylesBody Align Myotherapist,Queens Parade, Clifton HillI have been a client of Ashlee for approximately three years and I cannot speak highly enough of her knowledge and professionalism when it comes to freeing restricted joints, assisting with postural alignment and repairing all those soft tissue niggles you experience when you are deskbound.As soon as you enter the clinic, you are welcomed by friendly staff, a lovely cup of herbal tea and soothing music. It’s my favourite time of the working week for sure.Ashlee takes the time to assess your body and its restrictions before launching into one of the best treatments I have experienced and believe you me, I have tried Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Osteopathists and Massage and you always get instant relief at the conclusion of each session and ultimately improvement leading to recovery.From Migraine, tight neck and shoulders, thoracic spine, lower back, hip flexor issues etc. Ashlee always find “the spots” using deep tissue trigger point work, massage, cupping and/or dry needling.She seeks constant feedback during sessions and sends you away with exercises or stretches that compliment her treatments. I apologise that I don’t always do these due to being a busy working mum.My weekly migraines stemming from poor posture and screen work 8 hours per day have all but diminished.I owe this to Ashlee’s therapy.So, do yourself a favour and visit Ashlee. I promise you won’t have any regrets.I visit all year round because I love and benefit from the treatments and I am grateful that they are not pushy when it comes to making future appointments.

Abby always gives great advice, is thoughtful in her follow-up, and I'm definitely seeing improvements. Will definitely return, and absolutely recommend Body Align Myotherapy and Massage.

Body Align is my go to now! The treatments I have received from Ashlee (mostly deep tissue and some needling) have worked for me. The service is professional and direct, and I particularly like Ashlee's comfort with silence when you want to zone out!

I started seeing Amy in the last few weeks of my pregnancy. I was experiencing many typical pregnancy related ailments such as headaches, lower back pain, sciatica, swelling in my legs and hands. At the beginning of each session, Amy was brilliant and would always ask me how I was going and what felt sore before expertly making some suggestions about how massage could make me feel more comfortable. The clinic is clean and calm, with all of the expected equipment, including a pregnancy pillow, which allowed me to lie face-down to receive treatment (which I adored doing), and relaxing music in the background. After each treatment, I immediately felt better, leaving the clinic relieved of the headache or many of the aches I arrived with. I had massages with Amy on a weekly basis up to, and after, the birth of my daughter. I would highly recommend BodyAlign Myotherapy and Massage.

I've been seeing Carissa and her team at Body Align for frozen shoulders (mainly) since 2009. Carissa is brilliant - knows exactly what's required to relieve pain and reduce recovery time what ever the condition. The clinic is very well run, always efficient with time and availability. I have complete confidence in all the practitioners.
