Pain We Treat
Back Pain
Melbourne Muscular Therapies
Lower back pain is one of the most common complaints we treat — and one of the most mismanaged. Whether your pain comes from prolonged desk work, sporting injuries, or acute muscle pulls, our technique targets the lumbar spine and surrounding tissues at the source.
Our approach involves slow, deep penetrating strokes directly at the cause of the problem, to unravel and realign any knotted or dysfunctional tissues. We follow a 'clean first, build second' methodology: first removing dysfunction and pain to restore mobility, then building resilience through specialised barefoot strength and conditioning programs.
We're particularly effective for people who have reached the end of their tether after exhausting other treatments — those struggling with chronic back pain, difficulty bending, gym-related injuries, or lost mobility.

Common Questions
FAQ's
Causes include prolonged desk work, gym injuries, or falls. Your practitioner will assess your history, posture, and movement before treatment to identify the root cause.
General movement is recommended over rest. A lacrosse ball applied directly to the pain point provides immediate relief — it also works well on the glutes and hips. Follow up with guided barefoot strengthening.
Heat is preferred — it increases blood flow and accelerates the body's healing process. Cold showers boost vitality, but direct ice on the painful area is rarely recommended for chronic back issues.
The combination of Deep Tissue Fascial Massage and Barefoot Strength Training is the most effective approach for eliminating lower back pain and keeping it away long-term.
Duration varies by individual — presenting complaints, history, and commitment to recommended lifestyle changes. Some clients experience significant relief in one session; others benefit from ongoing treatment over several months.
