Services
Core Therapy opened in 2009 at Fitness First Platinum QV, since then we have also opened our Northcote practice. Core Therapy is solely run and operated by Danny, who has over twelve years of experience in providing remedial massage treatments for varied individuals with unique goals, injuries and symptoms.
Our senior principal remedial massage therapist Danny is skilled at working independently as well as within a multidisciplinary framework. We have a varied and large patient base who we treat concurrently with other practitioners, eg medical practitioners, osteopaths, chiropractors, physiotherapists, podiatrists, naturopaths and exercise physiologists.
Remedial massage focuses on the release of chronic pain in the body through slow effluerage strokes and targeted finger pressure on contracted areas, by either following or crossing over the muscle fibres, tendons and fascia. This modality is most commonly used to address specific problems associated with chronic muscular pain, injury rehabilitations, sporting and occupational injuries, RSI, and physical and mental fatigue.
A sports massage is a type of therapy geared toward active individuals, usually those who present with common strains resulting from strenious exercises and movements. Sports massage assists in reducing the risk of injury, cools the body down after exertion and helps enhance the overall physical performance of an athlete by increasing overall motion and flexibility.
Core Therapy is one of the few clinics in Melbourne that specialise in trigger point therapy. This modality directly focuses on the exceedingly contracted points in our muscle fibers, which are painful upon compression and may cause refered pain and tenderness to other areas in the body. The focused treatment of trigger points could be what you require to recover from chronic symptoms that can seem impossible to fix.

I had struggled with pain from tennis elbow until seeing Danny at Core Therapy. Within a few visits, through the combination of his skills and the exercises he provided me with, I was able to resume normal activities without further pain or discomfort. I will continue to see Danny if I have any future pains or injuries. Highly recommend!

Danny was able to pinpoint the issues surrounding my neck and shoulder discomfort with relative ease and address the major impingement on my shoulder. I received my myotherapy treatment 4 days ago and am still discomfort/pain free. I haven't had this much range of movement for quite some time.
On top of the aforementioned, he is very professional, knowledgeable and charismatic. I can't recommend him enough.

I’m a competitive cyclist, and I’ve been seeing Danny every month at Core Therapy. Every time I’ve gone there, I’ve come away stoked with the results. Danny is incredibly devoted to his profession and knows more about the human body than anyone I know! If I go there with an injury, Danny is not only able to diagnose the problem but also work on the affected area and give me exercises or stretches to keep improving it. The sports massages are also key to injury prevention and recovery after hard training blocks. I also love to see Danny before big events to top off all of the other good

As a competitive amateur club cyclist, I've been seeing Danny regularly for the past 2 years for tune ups and injury prevention massage.
Danny is always up for a friendly chat about the ins & outs of the cycling world and his work speaks for itself, with 0 overuse injuries for me on my way through the demands of A grade last year.
I'd recommend Danny's services to any competitive endurance athlete looking to keep their biological machine well oiled.
