Pain We Treat
Occupational Injuries
Melbourne Muscular Therapies
Is your workplace adding to your pain or dysfunction? Have you been injured at work? From office workers with neck or wrist pain from prolonged sitting, to factory workers and tradespeople with back pain from heavy lifting — we have helped countless people overcome their occupational injuries and return to work pain-free.
Occupational injuries can be not only debilitating at work but can affect your daily life too. Our techniques can be applied to pain wherever it may be located on the body. We use slow, deep penetrating strokes at the source of the problem to unravel and realign any knotted or dysfunctional tissues.
After treatment, we provide ergonomic advice and build your strength through Barefoot Exercise Rehabilitation — so that your body can handle the demands of your work without breaking down again.

Cathy F.
Google Review, Ferntree Gully
“As a new client I felt instantly welcomed and at ease with her. She was attentive and actively listened as I went through my (many) issues with muscular tightness/injuries. Vanessa gave precise feedback and treatment to the most problematic areas I am currently dealing with, along with some education around why and what was causing it.”
