CLAIMING FOR MASSAGE CONSULTATIONS
We have both Remedial Masseurs and Myotherapists working at The Melbourne Sports Medicine Centre. There are over 100 health funds and each patient will have various levels of cover. Individual therapists are covered by different Health Funds.
If you have private health insurance and wish to claim, it is your responsibility to check with your fund as to which therapist you are covered with. We want you to be able to achieve the maximum benefit from your health insurance. If you have any queries please check with the reception staff.
REMEDIAL MASSAGE
Sitting in an office chair working at a computer all day can
be detrimental to the shoulder and neck muscles, not to mention
the lower back region. Remaining in a static position causes muscles
to fatigue and tense up which leads to muscular stiffness, headaches
and backache; as well as referred symptoms in arms and hands such
as tingling, numbness or a feeling of tiredness or heaviness.
SPORTS MASSAGE
Whether you are a recreational sports person or a serious
athlete, your muscles will suffer side effects from exercise at
one time or another. The accumulation of lactic acid and subsequent
associated muscle stiffness and fatigue is further exacerbated
when you spend most of the day at a desk.
RELAXATION MASSAGE
We all have stress in our lives relating to work, family, environment
and society. Mental tensions, frustration and insecurity are among
the most damaging. Affected by stress, the heart works harder,
muscles tense up, breathing can become rapid and shallow - all
body processes are degraded. Work stress is the most common complaint
amongst city workers.
