I am in the business of reducing and eliminating everyday aches and pains. Pain can be sporting or occupational based, stress or posture related, or simply caused by degeneration of the joints caused through ageing with the assistance, of course, from the dreaded osteoarthritis which eventually catches up with most of us.

"You've nothing to lose except discomfort"
Hi, I’m Garry Dean, following years of clinical and theoretical study involving Anatomy and Physiology, Swedish and Remedial Massage and Sports Therapies, I have become proficient in the assessment of postural deficiencies and the recognition of incorrect bio-mechanics or workings of the human structure which can cause muscle pain or referred pain to other areas.
My interest in this field was instilled from an early age while in the shadows of my father, Stan Dean. I observed the magic in his physical preparation of the record premiership Rugby League side, St. George, over a period of 17 years which included their 11 straight premiership grand finals.
Coming from a sporting background myself, consisting of long distance running and professional boxing, (both at national level) , I can sympathise with all complaints of soreness. Pain can be sporting or occupational based, stress or posture related, or simply caused by degeneration of the joints caused through ageing with the assistance, of course, from the dreaded osteoarthritis which eventually catches up with most of us.
Don’t despair however. There is an answer to every problem.
As a Remedial Massage Practitioner, I work closely with Physiotherapists and Chiropractors as well as most Holistic and Natural genres. Occasionally I may recommend that a client seek additional help by way of referral, however, in most cases, chronic headaches and continuous discomfort in neck, shoulders, middle and lower back, and legs can be relieved of pain simply by targeting the constricting muscles which create a muscular spasm, locating the trigger points, releasing the tension and in some cases gentle stretching.
This one hour process will not only assist in your well being but will also amount to a totally relaxing and de-stressing experience.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT ON ARRIVAL?
When you visit for the first time, I will sit with you and discuss your concerns and ask you relevant questions in order to determine the most suitable treatment and the areas requiring most concentration. I may check your posture using a horizontal wall grid and a plumb line and record information on a personal History Card for future reference.
All client information shall be retained in the strictest of confidence.
From that point the treatment will begin.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING A MASSAGE?
During the massage you should feel relaxed and comfortable. Soothing music and a perfect room temperature will help you enter into a relaxed state. Please do not feel that you need to speak to the therapist during your treatment unless he needs to ask you a question.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER THE MASSAGE?
Following a deeply relaxing massage, take your time arising from the table. You may be a little light headed and hopefully those tense muscles will be relaxed and eased.
A stronger Remedial Massage for First Timers will also relax you completely but may create a mild but very temporary soreness within the next 12 hours. Most clients find that it takes at least 24 hours to feel the real benefit of deep tissue massage.
HOW OFTEN DO I NEED MASSAGE?
This answer naturally depends upon the individual being treated and the degree of injury (if any). For relaxation, toning and general body maintenance it is advised to receive a massage at least on a monthly basis, or if required, fortnightly.
WHEN AND WHERE CAN I RECEIVE A CONSULTATION?
I massage at 8 Alamein Road, Revesby Heights on evenings and weekends. Appointments are necessary by phoning me on 0404 018 015.
ARE GIFT VOUCHERS AVAILABLE?
Next time you struggle to think of a gift for someone who appears to have everything, think about massage. Vouchers are available on request.

As a fully accredited member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS Provider Number.) a certain proportion of my fees can be claimed through a majority of Private Health Funds.
