On https://bookrelax.com.au/ set your search location to Melbourne and key in Max Therapy Institute.
They open during business hours weekdays only.
For 45 minute sessions they cost between $26 to $32 depending on the day of week. They offer different massages depending on day of week, i.e. Remedial massage for $30 on Mondays.
Note this is a Student Clinic and your masseuse may still be learning techniques in becoming a professional.
For those who don't know, treatments are performed by massage therapy students under supervision as part of their clinical training. The biggest advantage is the price – significantly cheaper than most remedial massage clinics in the CBD.
My experience:
Student was professional and took time to identify problem areas
Treatment didn't feel rushed
Clinic environment was clean and professional
Downsides:
Skill level may vary depending on how far along the student is in their training
Probably not the best option if you need treatment for a complex injury or want an experienced therapist
Overall, if you're looking for affordable remedial massage, muscle recovery, or relief from neck/back/shoulder tightness, it's excellent value for money. I'd definitely go back.
Has anyone else here tried MTI or other student clinics in Melbourne? Who's your go to person in MTI? Curious how they compare.
thanks OP, flight booked, can't wait
