Women's Evidence-Informed Sports Massage Clinic in Canberra.

Proud to be one of Canberra's leading sports massage therapists with Evidence-Informed Massage Therapy Exclusively for Women.

Move Better, Recover Better & Feel Their Best

Welcome. I'm Ray Flaherty, an experienced sports massage therapist with more than 20 years of experience in sports, injuries, pain and muscle management. I specialise exclusively in helping active women manage muscular pain, improve movement, recover from exercise, and support their wellbeing through professional, evidence-informed massage therapy. I have undertaken additional training in women's health, including menopause awareness, Endometriosis awareness, and post-traumatic stress disorder awareness, which has allowed me to better understand the physical changes women experience throughout different stages of life, from adolescence to menopause.

Please note that I have removed the term "Remedial Massage" from my services. Over time, I've found that many enquiries were primarily about claiming health fund rebates and not about a good massage. As I no longer accept health fund claims, I focus on Sports Massage, which is not eligible for health fund rebates. I still deal in pain management for active people.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. I'm committed to providing high-quality, personalised treatments to help you move and feel your best.

Supporting Your Body's Natural Healing

I don't heal injuries—your body does that naturally. My role is to help create the best environment for recovery by identifying and releasing areas of tension, restriction, and dysfunction. By improving movement, reducing muscle tightness, and restoring balance, I give your body the tools it needs to heal itself more effectively. Every treatment is tailored to your individual needs, whether you're recovering from training, managing ongoing muscle tension, or preparing for your next event.

This clinic provides Professional Massage Therapy Designed Exclusively for Women. My wife has always supported my commitment to helping women improve their health and wellbeing. While I practise independently, I deeply appreciate her encouragement behind the scenes.

I am not accepting new male clients. This policy reflects the specialised focus of the clinic and helps maintain a safe, comfortable environment for female clients.

A small number of long-term male clients will continue to be seen for pain management.
