MOVE
01 / SUPPORTED RANGE
CONTROL · COMFORT · FEEDBACK
02
ONE APPOINTMENT · TWO WAYS OF WORKING
Release tension. Explore range. Recheck.
The appointment can move between hands-on massage and supported movement. Each stage remains open to your feedback.
02
MOVE
Explore supported range
Your therapist guides a controlled stretch while you stay able to comment, adjust or stop.
03
RECHECK
Notice what changed
The session can pause, revisit an area or alter the plan according to how the movement feels.
03
WHAT THE SESSION MAY INCLUDE
A treatment that moves with you.
Not every appointment uses every technique. The useful mix depends on your priorities, comfort, consent and the therapist’s training.
RANGE
01
Targeted massage work
Hands-on work can focus on the areas and pressure preferences agreed at the start.
02
Supported assisted stretching
A limb or area may be guided through a comfortable range while your feedback sets the boundary.
03
Position and pace changes
The therapist can adjust support, position, tempo or the sequence when something does not feel right.
04
Ongoing check-ins
You can ask for more, less, a pause, another approach or a stop at any point.
04
CONTROL IS PART OF THE TREATMENT
Stretch should feel guided—not forced.
A supported stretch can feel noticeable, but you should remain able to breathe, speak and ask for a change. Your therapist cannot feel what you feel; clear feedback is useful treatment information.
KEEP GOING
Comfortable tension
A steady stretch or mild tension that feels manageable and remains easy to discuss.
ADJUST NOW
Sharp or unusual sensation
Tell the therapist immediately about sharp pain, pinching, tingling, numbness, dizziness or feeling unwell.
TELL US FIRST
Context changes the plan
Mention recent injury or surgery, health conditions, pregnancy, mobility limits or medical advice before treatment.
This service is not a diagnosis or a substitute for medical care. If you are unsure whether massage or assisted stretching is suitable for you, contact the clinic and follow advice from your treating health professional.
05
WHO MAY CHOOSE IT
For days when stillness is not the whole answer.
This option may appeal when you want massage plus guided movement in the same appointment. Suitability is discussed individually.
MOVE
01
Desk-heavy days
You prefer a session that can alternate hands-on work with supported movement after long periods in one position.
02
Training recovery
You want to discuss activity, preferred pressure and guided range as part of a recovery-focused appointment.
03
Several loaded areas
You want the therapist to move between areas, positions and techniques instead of following one fixed routine.
04
Movement-based care
You simply prefer an appointment that includes active feedback and a guided movement component.
06
SERVICE UPDATE
Assisted Stretching is coming soon.
Pricing, appointment lengths and online booking details will be published when the service is ready. Call the clinic if you would like an update before launch.
HICAPS is not automatic. A rebate may only apply when the appointment is booked as an eligible remedial service with a qualified remedial therapist and your cover allows it.
STATUS
COMING SOON
DETAILS TO FOLLOW
Once launched, final availability and booking details will be confirmed through Fresha.
07
GOOD TO KNOW
Clear expectations help you stay in control.
You do not need to diagnose yourself or know your ideal range before arriving. Bring useful context, preferences and questions.
01
Do I need to be flexible?
No. The therapist works with the range and comfort you have on the day. The aim is not to force a particular position.
02
Should assisted stretching hurt?
No. A stretch may feel noticeable, but sharp pain, pinching, tingling, numbness or feeling unwell are reasons to stop and tell the therapist immediately.
03
Is every session the same?
No. The massage work, stretches, positions, pace and time spent on each area can change according to your priorities and feedback.
04
Can I claim through HICAPS?
Not automatically. Eligibility depends on whether you book an eligible remedial service, the treating practitioner and your health-fund cover.
05
Is this physiotherapy or a medical assessment?
No. It is a massage and assisted-stretching service. It does not diagnose conditions or replace advice and care from your medical or allied-health practitioner.
