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 have been treated by several massage and myo therapists. They have all been extremely kind and accurate in my treatments. Elena the Chiropractor is also a blessing. Easy access to the studio too.

I was looking for somewhere closer to home and happened to walk past Stable Massage. I booked a one hour session with Sam. It was one of the best hours of myotherapy I’ve experienced. The pressure was just right, Sam located my sore spots and went to work leaving me with some exercises to perform at home. I’m looking forward to my next appointment in January. read less

There are so many massage and physio businesses in Melbourne, it can be daunting finding one that will deliver results. I have tried quite a few other therapists, but Stable really does stand out as one of the best. I know theirs is a service I can trust. read less

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

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
