About Therapist
I am dedicated and passionate about my role as a massage therapist, possessing strong people skills, genuine care and sincere service. My business is founded on warmth, fuelled by passion and reinforced by consistency. My experience has been gained over 4 years working in clinic and gym environments, along side physiotherapists and Osteopaths. Currently I am involved with providing massage to 1st grade NRL teams including Sharks and Bulldogs, under 'Julia Russell Sports Massage Services'. In addition, I provide massage to corporate companies to assist in reducing RSI in the workplace.
I strive to provide a consistent and professional service, where every massage is as good as the first.
I look forward to assisting you move better,
Michelle McDonald
What to expect |
Upon your initial appointment, an assessment of your current postural alignment will given. A case history will be taken in order to treat and recognise the muscular imbalances responsible for your posture. Regular activities and daily demands placed on your body will be taken into consideration to taylor an effective massage approach, for the best results to promote better movement for you

Remedial Massage |
Excellent for releasing muscle tension, muscle spasms and promotion of correct muscle function. Used regularly, a remedial massage can eliminate pain caused by tight muscles, which can be responsible for referring pain to other parts of the body. During a session, a combination of techniques and pressure will be applied, together with active and passive stretching. The aim is to increase range of motion, eliminate toxic build up and reduce excessive scar tissue build up. Ideal for injury rehabilitation, stress relief and prevention of repetitive strain injuries.
Sports Massage|
Useful for anyone who plays sport regularly. Pre event massage – performed ideally upto 2 hours prior to the event. This style of massage is performed utilising shorter strokes, with an up beat tempo. Post event massage utilises slower and longer strokes, designed to milk the muscles - eliminating lactic acid build up, therefore reducing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). This promotes better recovery and enables your body to perform at maximum ability.
Deep Tissue Massage |
For those preferring a firm massage, deep tissue is performed using slow, long and gliding strokes – excellent for large muscle groups required to work under load or excessively on a regular basis.
Trigger Point Massage |
Muscles are capable of referring pain to a predicted site – known as a trigger point. These areas respond well to trigger point therapy, whereby the therapist will locate these areas, which can be quit tender and responsible for pain referral. Once located, a tolerable amount of pressure will be applied until the muscle responds and releases. It is important to note that a side effect may be experienced due to a toxic build-up. This could include some slight soreness or slight feeling of nausea in the 24 hours following a massage. This can be decreased by increasing your water intake, which will assist your body to flush out the build up of toxins more effectively.
Swedish Massage|
For those who prefer a gentle massage designed at relaxing the body and calming the nerves. Swedish utilises long sweeping strokes combined with gentle kneading to enhance circulation and promote a state of total relaxation.
Corporate Massage |
Why not treat and reward your team to a massage in the workplace. Our therapists are fully qualified to provide your hard working staff with a de-stressing and relieving seated massage. The removal of clothing is not required and can be performed at your desk or in an ergonomically designed chair. This is an excellent way to thank your staff or boost morale.
