Resting and waiting for your back pain to "settle"?

Your discs need movement.
Your nervous system needs reassurance.
Your body needs strength.

Rest has its place, but lasting pain reduction really comes from graded and supported movement.

I love my team 💖

Let us make you a better mover. We are not too harsh, very warm, and very precise with what we do. 😂

Inside a session with Alex 👏🏻

Hands-on therapy, whole-body thinking, and movement that feels better afterwards.

If this sounds like what your body’s been asking for, you know where to find him.

Reintroducing Alex 👋
Our soft tissue therapist at our Leichhardt clinic, offering remedial massage, lymphatic drainage, pregnancy massage, and structural integration.

We welcomed Alex to the team mid last year, and his work has quietly become one of those “ohhh… that makes sense now” experiences for a lot of bodies.

Alex works with the body as a connected system, using hands-on therapy to support fascial movement, chronic pain, postural restrictions, and overall ease of movement.

His sessions help the body adapt to load and stress, rather than just chasing tight spots.

That’s also why his work pairs beautifully with our small group Clinical Pilates classes. Hands-on input + intelligent movement is a very good combo.

Alex’s sessions are especially helpful if you’re:

🤍 Feeling heavy, swollen, or restricted
🤍 Recovering from injury or surgery
🤍 Managing long-standing tension patterns
🤍 Wanting hands-on support to complement your movement work

If you’ve been curious about lymphatic drainage, structural integration, or a more clinical, whole-body approach to remedial massage… Alex fits right in here.

Throw back to our end of year party.

A bit of meditation by Rosie, our past practice manager who now leads our Yins and Pins with .acupuncture at Papaya monthly.
.realignment,.goal setting, .trivia, .celebrating wins, . watching bubs and kids,
..making body scrub under the supervision of Sophie, our practice manager (ex-naturopath for over 20 years) and turned our studio into a kitchen filled with lemon, coffee and all sorts of beautiful smells.

Here's to a bright and fun 2026 💖 and cannot wait to see where we go with the two clinics!

If you've just had a baby and want to return to running or lifting heavy weights, we have a class for you!

Safe for mums from 6 weeks postpartum, we teach you how to lift weights properly, fix your biomechanics, engage you core and pelvic floor properly, and strengthen your abdominals so you can return to your gym routine or sports safer and stronger than before.

In this space, everyone progresses in different pace. We all have a different starting point, and our women's health and sports physios are here to help you become a confident and strong mama regardless of your movement background. 💙

Join us every sat morning at 9:30am. No ongoing enrolment required (though we recommend being consistent for at least 3-4 months to get the best recovery postpartum) just book in on our app and show up. Eligible for physio health fund rebates.

Note: women's health physio assessment highly recommended at 6-8 weeks postpartum before joining this class. This is so we can tailor the pelvic floor cueing and focus for the individuals during the class.

Movement Laboratory will be closed from Dec 24 2025 and reopening on Jan 10 2026 so our team can rest, recharge, and spend time with loved ones.

Wishing you a very safe, peaceful, and Merry Christmas. We look forward to supporting you again in the new year ✨
