Townsville Massage is devoted to providing quality professional massage therapy.

An increasing number of research studies show massage reduces heart rate, lowers blood pressure, increases blood circulation and lymph flow, relaxes muscles, improves range of motion, and increases endorphins (enhancing medical treatment).

Although therapeutic massage does not increase muscle strength, it can stimulate weak, inactive muscles and in doing so, will partially compensate for the lack of exercise and inactivity resulting from illness or injury.

It also can hasten and lead to a more complete recovery from exercise , injury and post operative conditions.

Neil Case

With a family member suffering from a ‘Frozen Shoulder”, Neil was understandably perplexed with the ineffectual traditional remedies of the medical profession. When nothing provided relief, he decided natural medicine and massage was the key to recovery and immersed himself in study of Swedish Massage, a prerequisite to studying Remedial or Deep Tissue Massage.

He claims success with the “Frozen Shoulder Syndrome” with his family member enjoying the relief from pain and greatly improved mobility.

Along the way, he saw first hand just how beneficial Manual Lymphatic Drainage would be helpful to patients and has added this qualification to his credentials.

The required academic and practical requirements qualified Neil to become a certified massage therapist.
