Welcome to Remedial Therapies SA where we want to help you manage your pain and discomfort. Let us help support you and work with you so you can live a life with less pain and more movement.
Both Andrea and Jeremy are Certified specialists in remedial massage . This is in addition to being appropriately qualified and recognised by Australian Health Funds. It means we observe and implement a third party accredited, professional best practice standard, similar to registered health professional. Certified specialists implement Best Practice Standards and comply with an industry Code of Ethics, as well as consistently providing professional excellence.
Andrea grew up with a keen interest in health. Even as a child she used to devour medical encyclopaedias. Andrea initially studied languages at university but she eventually found herself working at a medical clinic.
Early 2007 severe injuries sustained in an accident brought about some major changes in Andrea’s life. On the receiving end of some amazing therapists, Andrea discovered remedial massage therapies. This is what ultimately ignited Andrea’s passion for helping others overcome the pain and discomfort of their injuries/illnesses. After her initial training as remedial massage therapist, Andrea massaged elite tennis players at Tennis Australia before pursuing her interests in medical massage.
Andrea is formally recognised as a Certified Specialist under the Massage and Myotherapy Australia Certification Program as approved by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
