Pain We Treat
Sports Injuries
Melbourne Muscular Therapies
Sick of suffering from ongoing soft-tissue injuries? Persistently spraining your ankles? Struggling with lack of confidence in your shoulders while playing sport? If you need to get more out of your body in your chosen sport, you've come to the right place — we have helped countless professional and amateur athletes.
Our two-pronged approach to treatment and rehabilitation is proven to assist in effective pain relief and injury prevention. We 'clean' the body of injury-causing tension and stiffness, then 'build' the body to ensure all points of weakness are strengthened and muscular chains are working efficiently.
Whether you're dealing with a recurring ankle sprain, a stubborn hamstring, a shoulder that won't trust itself, or a pattern of soft-tissue injuries that keeps pulling you out of competition — we identify the underlying cause and address it systematically.

What Our Clients Say
“I've been to many practitioners and Vanessa is now my only go to.”
Cathy F.
Google Review, Ferntree Gully
“I suffered with chronic lower back pain from a bulging disc and it was preventing me from progressing in my exercise and strength building program. I had tried everything from chiropractic to acupuncture before I was recommended to MMT two years ago. I have since learnt that these guys are the leaders in their field and really understand how my body works. They have not only given me the pain relief that I thought would never happen, they have educated me on how to move correctly and avoid injury.”

“I had pain in my hip & knees for approximately 6 years before coming to see the guys at MMT. I'd tried all kinds of therapies including Physio & Osteo over the years and never really had results to show for the time and money spent. Not only are the guys here genuine, real and authentic but they're also amazing at what they do. Yes, it hurts sometimes but the relief after is 100% worth it.”

Common Questions
FAQ's
Persistent injuries usually come down to a combination of factors: insufficient strength, lack of proprioception or biomechanical awareness, insufficient deep tissue treatment to keep tissues working at full capacity, and compensatory movement patterns within your muscular chains. Addressing all of these is essential to breaking the injury cycle.
We prescribe a wide range of exercises depending on your specific dysfunction. Our programming draws from Barefoot Functional Power Training, Human Biomechanics Training, Postural Training, Sprint Training, and Landing, Plyometric, Deceleration, and Acceleration training — all tailored to your sport and injury history.
Recovery timelines depend on the injury, its severity, and how long it has been present. Our two-pronged approach — cleaning the body of injury-causing tension and stiffness, then building strength and correcting weaknesses — is designed to get you back to sport as quickly and sustainably as possible.
