TREATMENTS
REMEDIAL & SPORTS MASSAGE
Remedial massage begins with a thorough assessment and combines specific deep tissue techniques and gentler strokes appropriate to your needs. It targets problem areas and aids mobility. Remedial massage also releases muscle tension and helps to reduce the pain associated with chronic conditions and postural problems.
Remedial and sports massage can help speed up injury recovery times, maintaining soft tissue flexibility and muscle tone.
Other techniques used in remedial massage may also include Dry Needling, Myofascial cupping, Low level laser therapy as deemed appropriate through assessment.
Check the therapists qualifications if you have specific requests.
PREGNANCY / POST NATAL MASSAGE
As a woman progress through the incredible journey of pregnancy, her body will experience many changes. Pregnancy massage can assist with most of the uncomfortable changes by energising and nurturing both mother and baby. This specific massage changes as the pregnancy progresses through the second and third trimesters and is planned dependant on your individual needs. When you are full term and your bubba is not yet sending signs of arriving, there are some well known acupressure points that can be stimulated to try to encourage delivery.
Postnatal massage assists the body to return to its correct alignment, assisting recovery and preventing future problems that can occur after childbirth.
LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY
Low Level Laser Therapy or LLLT is used to treat various conditions using laser to effect a photochemical reaction at a cellular level. The laser light penetrates into tissue where it is absorbed by cells and converted into energy that influences the course of metabolic process.
The LTU-904 (the model used by both Melissa & Kellie) does not heat tissue and as such is indicated as part of a therapy regime for the treatment of post mastectomy lymphoedema and soft tissue injuries and pain that may be associated with inflammation.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
Manual lymphatic drainage aids detoxification & decreases fluid retention. This technique is an extremely effective part of any cleansing program as it speeds up our Lymphatic system which in turn removes waste products from our body and assists our immune system to keep us healthy.
Lymphatic drainage is recommended as an essential treatment for a range of health conditions including Lymphedema and lipodema and forms a critical part of healing after some surgical procedures.
DRY NEEDLING
Dry needling is used to treat trigger points, muscle tension and imbalances that cause pain and restricted movement.
Myofascial trigger points, contractures and tight bands in deep muscles are treated with fine needles, the same as used in acupuncture. This reduces muscle tension and trigger points are desensitised.
Dry needling is an invaluable tool for clients that are in pain or very sensitive to deeper massage techniques.
CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY
Craniosacral Release is a gentle yet profound method for enhancing the function of the nervous system, reducing stress and returning balance and mobility to the entire body. Quite often, a greater sense of calmness, clarity and wellbeing is experienced after a Craniosacral session. This safe and supportive process allows for the release of deep-seated trauma and emotions stuck within our body.

TESTIMONIALS
Having tried many forms of therapy (physio, chiropractic, osteopathy, other massage therapists) over several decades and in several different cities and countries, Kellie McDermott at Tranquility Massage Therapy surpasses them all. She keeps every single one of my middle aged chronic issues under control and at bay; keeps me moving and well, and without my having to attend appointments any more frequently than is necessary. Kellie is an exceptionally gifted therapist, who is also professional, courteous, and empathetic. Five stars are not enough; I would give 100+ if I could. Highly recommend.

“I was pregnant with my second child and after a difficult first pregnancy and delivery, I decided to try massage when a friend told me about Kellie at Tranquility Massage.
I had regular massage throughout my second and third trimesters and couldn’t believe how good I felt. I was amazed at the difference, any pain I felt was eased with massage and it left me feeling more relaxed.
The delivery was much quicker with less stress. I am sure the massages I received helped this. I would recommend pregnancy massage with Kellie to any expecting mum.”
