Mrs Alexandra Machado is a Massage Therapist based in Bella Vista, in Sydney’s north west. She works from 8/22 Lexington Drive, Bella Vista NSW 2153, with a simple focus: helping people feel more comfortable in their body and move a bit easier.
Massage can help for lots of everyday reasons. Some people come in to unwind after a busy week and ease stress in their muscles. Others book in when they feel tightness that won’t quite shift, like sore shoulders, stiff hips, or that heavy, achy feeling after sitting for long hours.
Alexandra offers a range of massage styles, so the session can match what you’re dealing with on the day. Relaxation massage is great for calming the body and taking the edge off tension. Deep tissue massage is used when muscles feel really tight or sore, and you want to focus on firmer pressure in areas that need it.
For people who play sport, train at the gym, or do lots of physical work, sports massage can be a helpful option. It can support recovery after activity, and it’s often chosen when muscles feel tired, niggly, or a bit “overworked”.
There’s also trigger point therapy. This targets specific tight spots in muscle tissue that can cause pain and referred discomfort. In many cases, people notice the difference once those tender points are worked through carefully.
Sessions are usually guided by what feels most important to you. If you’re not sure what type of massage suits you, Alexandra focuses on listening first, then adjusting the approach during the appointment. At times, the plan is kept fairly straightforward—work on the main problem areas, then finish with gentle work to help the muscles settle.
Because everyone’s body is different, you’ll often find the right balance of comfort and pressure matters most. The goal is not to push through pain. It’s more about finding what helps you feel better, loosening what’s tight, and leaving you with that calmer, more mobile feeling.
Alexandra’s work is suited to anyone looking for hands-on care for tension, soreness, muscle tightness, and recovery support. There’s no need for big medical explanations to book in—just come in feeling uncomfortable, stressed, or stuck, and get some real relief.
