Services
Remedial Massage
Our remedial massage therapists use deep tissue techniques and trigger point therapy to address musculoskeletal issues. This evidence-based treatment improves posture, relieves muscle tension, and enhances sports performance through personalized assessment and targeted intervention. Clients benefit from reduced pain, increased mobility, and accelerated recovery from injuries.
Dry Needling
Dry needling involves inserting fine needles into muscle trigger points to alleviate chronic pain and improve range of motion. This technique effectively treats conditions like headaches, sciatica, and sports injuries by releasing muscle knots and promoting natural healing processes in soft tissues.
Sports Massage
Tailored sports massage programs enhance athletic performance and prevent injuries through sport-specific techniques. Our therapists work with elite athletes and recreational sportspeople to optimize muscle function, accelerate recovery between training sessions, and maintain peak physical condition throughout competitive seasons.
Exercise Physiology
Personalized exercise programs address chronic pain, post-surgical recovery, and injury prevention. Our accredited exercise physiologists create tailored plans combining strength training, flexibility exercises, and movement retraining to improve overall physical function and long-term health outcomes.
Pregnancy Massage
Specialized pregnancy massage techniques alleviate musculoskeletal discomfort during pregnancy. Using safe positioning and modified techniques, we address common issues like lower back pain, swelling, and postural strain while promoting relaxation and improved circulation for expectant mothers.

A big thank to Michael and Katherine who provided remedial massage support for my marathon campaign culminating in finishing the Sunshine Coast Marathon this weekend. Thank you for helping me stay injury free over the months of training.

Saw Michael Wilhelmsen on the Boxing Day public holiday for an old sporting injury I can no longer ignore and received needling and massage. I am very pleased with the relief after one 90 minute session and will be returning for another in the coming days. Thank you Michael!

I initially tried JKI because of it's proximity to work & the positive reviews. I've seen Brooke on three occasions so far & was impressed from the very first session. Brooke has been thorough in assessment, treatment & recommendations; she is friendly & conversation flows easily (& silence isn't awkward). I would definitely recommend :)

Impressed by all the therapists at JKI - have attended for years for various exercise and migraine-related issues. All the staff are so knowledgeable about great preventative exercises, rehab, pre-hab and strategies for getting the most out of your sport and working out, and how to generally use your body on the daily to get the most out of it. An evidence-based approach is always promoted and Kat is especially knowledgeable on the best allied health professionals to help with individual issues.
