Joanne Brady is a Massage Therapist based in Scotts Head, NSW, working from 18 Hibiscus Way, Scotts Head NSW 2447.
Massage can be a simple way to help your body feel better. Joanne offers relaxation massage for when you just want to slow down and unwind. Many people book in after busy weeks, long drives, or when work and stress are starting to show in their shoulders, neck, and back.
If you’re dealing with more stubborn tightness, Joanne also provides deep tissue massage. This is often chosen when muscles feel hard, sore, or “knotted”, especially after extra activity or a lot of sitting. At times, deep work can make you feel a bit achy for a short while, but it’s aimed at helping the muscles relax and move more easily.
For people who are active, sports massage can be a good fit. That might include runners, surfers, gym-goers, or anyone training for an event. Joanne’s sports massage sessions focus on common areas that get used a lot, and they can help support recovery and comfort after workouts or sports.
Joanne also offers Swedish massage, which is well known for being gentle and steady. It can suit people who want a lighter touch, or anyone returning to massage after a break. Swedish massage may help with general muscle comfort and circulation, and it can feel really nice when you’re after something calming rather than intense.
When there’s a specific spot that won’t let go, trigger point therapy may help. This focuses on areas that feel tight or tender to press. It’s often used for tight bands in the muscles, where you can feel a “pain point” that causes discomfort elsewhere. In many cases, working on those spots can help reduce the pull and make movement feel easier.
Appointments are usually about what your body needs on the day. Joanne keeps the sessions practical and focused, so you can leave feeling looser and more comfortable. If you’re not sure which type of massage fits best, the session can be guided by how you feel—whether it’s stress relief, recovery support, or easing up particular areas of pain and stiffness.
