Our Story
Stable began close to our home in St. Kilda, and has now expanded to six locations across inner Melbourne (St Kilda, Fitzroy, CBD, Prahran, Hampton and Travancore). At each Stable clinic you will find a team of knowledgeable, strong and diligent therapists who specialise in deep tissue remedial massage, myotherapy and sports massage.
We also offer dry needling and pregnancy massage.
Our clinics are open 7 days a week, and our reception team are happy to take bookings over the phone. For late night or early morning bookings feel free to jump into our online booking system.
Our Founder
Hi I’m Zoe, mother of three and avid tennis player. I started Stable Massage in 1998 as a qualified massage therapist. At the time I was focusing on providing strong deep tissue massage to highly active and hard working clients. The treatments helped with pain reduction, reduced stiffness and aches, and increased range of movement – supporting clients to relax, recover and perform at their optimal ability.
My husband and I realised that the majority of health clinics focused primarily on relaxation massage and were not providing the benefits of deep tissue massage therapy to their clientele. We saw a clear opportunity to provide these specialised services, and Stable Massage was born!
I look forward to you visiting the clinics and please do not hesitate to give me any feedback, either online or by giving us a call.

I saw Ian who was very friendly and professional. I needed a deep tissue massage on my shoulder however I have pre-existing lower back issues, not only did he perform a massage on the affected area but also on my lower back and gave me extra exercise & physio advice which was extremely helpful, he also did some acupuncture. My problem went away immediately after my appointment and I will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend to anybody. Faye read less

I was suffering terrible pain from Shingles and muscle tightness. I'm 72 and I could hardly stand when I first went, I was doubled over with pain. Now I walk like a youngster. Khem is so experienced and would recommend her to anyone - from a light gentle massage for relaxation or for a true deep muscle make-over. She works like magic, sensing out tension and chasing it away - you can feel the difference as she undoes all the tension in each muscle before moving on to the next. This is true remedial massage - I thank you so much Khem. read less
They do Relaxation Massages Too!! The therapists are professional and well-skilled. Whilst relaxation massages are not listed in their menu, if you ask the therapist that is what you are seeking, they are more than happy to provide the level of service/therapy you are seeking.

The pain and symptoms are almost gone and he has helped me dramatically and reduced all of the inflammation.
I have been a regular client of Richie and I wouldn't use anyone else. I've tried several practitioners over the years and no one can provide the same level of service and relief from pain.
He's trustworthy, reliable and always on time. Without Ritchie I'd be watching the band instead of performing with them:)

Khem first helped me recover from acute pain and muscle tightness caused by Shingles (I'm 72 and never had such pain in my life, not even a total knee replacement). I swear she has magic hands that work deeply to undo knots and tension. Thank you for getting me back on my feet and walking properly again. read less

For a start it's a beautiful historic house in St Kilda with a lovely atmosphere.
Over the years I've seen several highly talented remedial and myotherapists.
For the last couple of years at least I've been going to Janine every couple of weeks and she really is amazing. She just knows intuitively what you need and will work with your body. You just leave floating.
Also you can claim some through HICAPS.

Stable Massage has a chill, minimalist, no nonsense vibe that is relaxing and inviting. Rita has given me important insight into my habits and patterns that result in stiff and sore muscles. As a result of her tips and advice, I'm able to maintain a more open and fluid movement in all my activities. I highly recommend visiting Rita at Stable. read less
