Vacuum Cupping

Who needs it?
Everyone can benefit from a massage. Perhaps you have developed an ache in your neck or back; maybe you’re mind needs to unwind after a long day at work, or you have a specific injury that needs attention. Massage is a powerful alternative therapy.
You can have a combination of massage techniques to suit your particular needs.

I have suffered with what I was told was lower back pain. I was doing all the correct stretches but the issue would continually reoccur. Marlon was assessing me... read more for personal training when he noticed something and then suggested to me that the issue was with my hip and not my lower back (as I had been previously advised) ... after a few minutes Marlon had released so much pain from my right hip. It was Instant relief. I didn't realise how much pain I was in until Marlon took it away....... Prevention lies with me but at least I know the cure lies with Marlon.
5 stars ... don't hesitate.

As a full time producer and DJ, I've had severe back pains! Always sitting, always standing. I contacted Marlon, and in only 2 sessions, I feel much better than I... read more had felt in years. It's not just about the massage therapy, its the way he connects to you, and makes you realize that you're more powerful than you think. I feel great, and I have no pain. Thank You Marlon
I highly recommend Marlon Walker: Remedial Massage South Yarra, and I will defiantly use him again.

My first visit today, going in for badly spasming muscles in my lower back.
Marlon is both very academically qualified and spirituality wholistic.
After a series of diagnostic tests (various body positions),... read more he diagnosed there was a problem with my right leg affecting my posture. When he began to work on the leg I couldn't believe how tight it was, I had no idea. I am 6ft tall and he was strong enough to completely loosen it.
After further tests, only then did he move onto my back but, again, he only moved onto the affected muscles after targeting related areas that were causing the problem.
Overall it was an extremely targeted and very potent treatment; Marlon does have the physical strength to treat a male properly.
I walked out without the pain and feeling very relieved. He also then followed up with advice over the phone.
A great professional.

Marlon is a truly gifted healer! I was lucky enough to experience this while visiting from Switzerland. I went in for one session to address shoulder tightness post surgery and... read more immediately booked two more sessions while I was in town. I feel relaxed, loose, whole and healed from head to toe. Do yourself a favor and take yourself to Marlon. Guaranteed that you won't regret it. Trust him to heal you and he will.

Marlon has been able to provide both immediate and long lasting relief for my chronic back pain that has plagued me for years. I have spent so much time and... read more money seeing a multitude of practitioners over the years with very limited results. Marlon really knows his stuff and gets results. Each session he works out what needs to be worked on by testing and asking questions. He then does post testing to check results, which are always good.
Marlon is also incredibly knowledgeable on providing very helpful exercises and treatment plans to address the core issues causing the pain. His exercises have been so much more helpful than any other practitioner that I have previously seen.
I could not recommend Marlon any more highly if you are suffering from pain in any part of your body.

After many years of lower back pain (50yo), weekly visits to osteo paths and chiropracters and being told mild scoliosis was the cause that required treatment. many years and no... read more results, no better than when i first walked into the clinics and still in pain.

And was i surprised!
A mechanic of the human body who ask questions about your problem and studies your movements and finds the solutions to the cause of your pain and rectafie's it in 1 session , absolutely unbelievable, pain free.
A big Thank You Marlon

My experience with Marlon was second to none, coming with multiple aches and pains through sport, stress and general body fatigue. He identified the problem in quick time and then... read more some, truly incredible the difference I felt before and after the session. Left feeling invigorated, knee pain very much reduced to nil. I have since booked in for multiple sessions as ongoing management for body tension and pain, I’ve been seriously impressed by his work and general calmness and great positive energy…..a true healer!!
