SERVICES

Welcome to VMH Therapies

VMH Therapies was established in 2002 after I completed my Certificate IV in Remedial Massage and the Diploma of Sports Therapies. I had participated in numerous sports whilst growing up and wanted to continue working in an area that was consistent with my passion for health and wellbeing. It is my goal to not only always deal with my clients with integrity and professionalism but to provide them with a high quality service and/or referral path if they require it.

As my business grew i developed a love of Pregnancy and Infant Massage and having completed an Infant Massage Instructors Course through the International Association of Infant Massage Australia I’ve since had the joy of massaging many very grateful pregnant ladies whilst also teaching them, and their partners, to give the gift of massage to their babies.

In the past 8 years my commitment to providing a high quality massage tailored to your individual needs in a relaxed and friendly environment has never wavered. As VMH continues to grow and change that is the one thing that will always remain the same.

Most health fund rebates available.
