Ideal for: Aches, pains, stiffness, headaches & muscular tension

Remedial massage is a therapeutic approach that provides relief from specific physical discomfort. Richard integrates multiple techniques in his intuitive remedial massage, including deep tissue work, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy—all tailored to your body's unique needs.

Sports Massage
Ideal for: Athletes, regular exercisers, performance enhancement & recovery

Benefit from sports massage whether you're a weekend warrior or competitive athlete. This specialized therapy supports performance maintenance, accelerates recovery after training, prevents injuries, and optimizes pre/post-event conditioning.

Richard brings professional experience working with elite athletes, including his time with the GWS Giants AFL team. He'll adapt techniques specifically for your activity and training phase, helping you perform better and recover faster.

Deep Tissue Therapy
Ideal for: Chronic tension, postural issues & deep muscular problems

True deep tissue massage goes beyond simply applying intense pressure. It's about skillfully accessing deeper muscle layers to release adhesions, improve function, enhance posture, and reduce pain. Richard's approach involves a refined technique that penetrates effectively without causing unnecessary discomfort.

Trained by renowned deep tissue expert Art Riggs, Richard works slowly and methodically within your comfort zone to provide lasting relief and improved mobility. Experience the difference skilled deep tissue work can make for your body.

Relaxation/Swedish Massage
Ideal for: Stress relief, relaxation & general wellbeing

Sometimes what your body needs most is soothing relaxation. Swedish massage uses long, flowing strokes to promote deep relaxation, reduce stress, and improve circulation—all in the comfort of your home.

Richard adjusts the pressure and techniques based on your preferences, creating a personalized experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and relaxed.

Pregnancy Massage
Ideal for: Expectant mothers seeking relief from pregnancy discomfort

The convenience of home massage is especially valuable during pregnancy. Why travel to a clinic when you can receive expert pregnancy massage in your own comfortable space? Richard provides therapeutic relief for common pregnancy discomforts like back pain, swelling, and tension.

With specialized training in pregnancy massage, Richard uses safe side-lying positioning with a dedicated pregnancy cushion system (not tables with belly holes, which most professionals don't recommend). Enjoy the perfect balance of therapeutic effectiveness and comfort during this special time.

Heartworks Lomi Lomi
While Richard has training in Lomi Lomi massage (distinct from Kahuna massage), he specializes in the other modalities listed above. For those specifically seeking Lomi Lomi, he recommends consulting practitioners who focus primarily on this technique.
