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.

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.

She listened, use trigger point massage and completely released the overwhelming amount of tension my body was feeling! She's also very humble, which was lovely to hear! Can't wait for my next session in a couple of weeks! I hope her boss is reading because she's worth every penny (and some!)! And no I didn't know her before today, just want to give credit where credit is due, as it's so hard to find a brilliant remedial massage! read less

I have really appreciated the efforts made by all therapists to customise the treatments to my body, for example all have been great at using techniques that have alleviated pain due to a slight curve at the top of my spine. read less

The pain in my right back has been going on for months & I have seen many professionals to try & help ease the pain. I was extremely impressed that within minutes he was able to target my problem areas with exact precision & work them out using a range of massage & pressure techniques. He adapted the massage to suit my problem areas whilst demonstrating a high level of expertise & knowledge to talk me through my treatment. He also advised on aftercare exercises to help my key problem areas. Highly recommended! Im looking forward to my next session. Thank you Leon! 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

This place is full of Massage and many other things that you can benefit from.
As you look from the street, this place looks a bit junky but as you walk into the driveway, and through the gravel of a parking lot, you enter into a different world. The steps are lined with plants and the atmosphere changes entirely. Opening the screen door, you walk into this cute little lobby with a reception desk with a super cheery receptionist and the smell of whatever lovely scent is this week/months favourite. The house (and that's what it seems like) is a beautiful old historic mansion. When going back into the rooms (which every single one has quiet please, session in progress) it's literally like a beautiful maze with two beautiful staircases... One that's not in use because I'm guessing it's not safe, but it's still beautiful.
From what I've seen, the staff is more than friendly, they greet you and make you feel welcome and the place is just extremely comfortable. If you haven't been in for a massage, give them a ring. They have spots available all the time and the people coming out seem quite happy about it.... If you need to see a mental health expert then have a look on their site, they have the best of the best there. read less"Myotherapy" I have been a client with Stable for a few years now and keep going back, for the simple reason they are friendly and professional.
