Is remedial massage covered by DVA or NDIS for Run-O-Waters residents?

Yes, we see both DVA card holders and NDIS plan-funded clients. Bring your DVA card or NDIS plan details to your first appointment so we can confirm what's covered before we start.

How far is the clinic from Run-O-Waters?

About 18 minutes and 12 kilometres, one of the shorter trips on our books — close enough that a regular fortnightly or monthly program is realistic alongside school runs and weekend sport.

Can I claim remedial massage on private health?

If your extras cover includes remedial massage and your therapist has a provider number with your fund, yes — we can process the claim on the spot with HICAPS where the fund allows it. Massage isn't covered by Medicare, but it can be funded through DVA or NDIS in the right circumstances.

How is remedial different from a relaxation massage?

Different purpose. Technique is chosen for what the assessment finds, pressure is matched to the tissue, the work targets a specific area, and the goal is a real change in tightness, range, or pain. Registration with a recognised national body is the standard for the field.

Local care

Remedial massage for Run-O-Waters residents.

Acreage families on the western fringe of town — Run-O-Waters residents managing a few paddocks alongside a commute — carry a particular mix of strain: fencing and mowing on the weekend, a desk or a drive during the week. It's a combination that tightens the lower back and shoulders from two different directions.

At 18 minutes and about 12 kilometres away, the clinic is close enough to fit around school pick-ups and kids' weekend sport, which matters for a lifestyle-block household running a tight schedule. We also see plenty of overuse pain from block work — carrying, digging, hauling — alongside the tension headaches that come from a full week. We assess what's driving the tightness and work the soft tissue to bring back range and ease the pain.

Getting here

The drive in from Run-O-Waters.

Run-O-Waters sits on Goulburn's western fringe, about 12 km from the clinic and roughly 18 minutes away via the local roads west of Goulburn. Our clinic is at 37 Ross Street in the centre of Goulburn, with parking on site — an easy trip for a first assessment or a standing block of appointments.

What we treat

What Run-O-Waters patients see us for.

Remedial massage is hands-on work on muscle and the soft tissue around joints, with technique picked for what we find and pressure tuned to the tissue. Our therapists are registered with a recognised national body, and the aim is a measurable change in tightness, range, or pain — not just an hour on the table.
