Austin Therapies Helps You During Your Body Pain

Are you struggling along - in pain - trying to do your favourite sport? 

Putting off that moment when you just have to stop, because it’s too painful to continue?

Are you feeling frustrated and hoping that it will just get better on its own?

How can Austin Therapies help?


We take an extensive case history and carefully assess your injury. We recommend x-rays, ultra-sounds, MRI’s and any other form of Western Medical test or treatment that would also benefit your condition.

We recommend a course of treatment and a rehabilitation program that suits you and will have you back playing your favourite sport in the minimum amount of time – completely pain free!

At our Sports Massage Brisbane clinic, we offer a wide range of very effective methods of treatment to facilitate your healing process.

Deep Tissue Massage / Sports Massage

Deep Tissue Massage is a technique that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. It seeks to release tension through firm finger pressure and can sometimes cause soreness for a day or two after treatment.

It is recommended for individuals that experience consistent pain or who engage in intense physical exertion – such as manual laborers or athletes

Deep tissue work needs to be tailored to the individual, as what is deep for one person may not be so for another. For this reason it is important to communicate what you are feeling physically with your therapist during treatment.

Bates Therapy


Bates Therapy is a holistic modality that involves realigning muscles, tendons and ligaments to increase range of motion and relieve pain and stiffness. It aims to address misalignments that restrict nerves and blood vessels that may be causing non-specific pain, numbness or general energy loss.
Through consultation we identify and address the deep rooted causes of pain and provide strategies for appropriate rest and exercise.
Known Benefits Of Bates Therapy Include:
  • Acute and Chronic Migraines
  • RSI
  • Carpel tunnel
  • Frozen shoulder
  • Sciatica
  • Scoliosis
  • Lumbar problems
  • Knee, ankle and sporting injuries
  • Muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis
  • Chronic fatigue

Acupuncture Therapy


Acupuncture is widely used in the treatment of Sporting injuries and works by correcting symptoms of pain and illness by clearing blockages in the body’s energetic system. By placing ultra fine needles upon key energy points, an acupuncturist can restore flow to areas that are unbalanced and strengthen the body’s own natural ability to heal itself.

The focus of acupuncture is upon treating the underlying causes of illness and so each treatment is unique to the individual.

At our Acupuncture Clinic Brisbane we aim to not only work on the pain you are feeling, but also to get to the root cause of your injury and help to re-balance the body’s natural energy flow. In this way we work to prevent the reoccurrence of your condition and to strengthen any weaknesses that may have been caused.

Remedial Massage Therapy


At our Remedial Massage Centre Brisbane – we use Remedial Massage, which is a relaxing yet highly effective treatment using specialised techniques to prevent and repair damage to muscles, tendons and joints.

It is used to treat both deep and superficial tissues and is based on the fact that muscles, tendons and ligaments all respond to touch.

Muscle tightness and pain, arthritis, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, whiplash, neck and back pain, scoliosis, headaches and sports injuries are common muscular and skeletal dysfunctions that can be addressed with remedial massage.
Key Benefits Of Remedial Massage Include:
  • The stimulation to the blood supply
  • Removal of toxins in the muscles
  • Calming the peripheral nervous system
  • Pain relief
  • Toning and relaxing of muscles
  • Improved joint mobility

Shiatsu

Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing form of massage that stimulates the body’s flow of natural vital energy, known as Qi. Its name is derived from the Japanese words for “finger” and “pressure” and a treatment involves having pressure applied to various parts of the body along known as energy lines or ‘meridians’.

Shiatsu shares its philosophy with Acupuncture and seeks to treat the underlying cause of illness by correcting imbalances in Qi flow.

Following a treatment you generally enjoy a happy balance of feeling invigorated yet calm and relaxed.

Known Benefits Include:
  • Stress reduction
  • Improved immune system
  • Healthy stimulation of the circulatory, lymphatic and hormonal systems
  • Regulate the activity of the autonomic nervous system
  • Release toxins and deep seated tension from muscles
