Steve Campbell Remedial Clinic

26/11/2025

Hi everyone,

Thank you for choosing me as your Remedial Massage Therapist. It’s truly an honour to treat you and help you achieve lasting results for your soft tissue concerns.

Celebrating Milestones in 2025

This year is especially meaningful to me, as I’m celebrating two major milestones:

-10 years since my clinic opened (as of early November), and

-25 years as a professional remedial massage therapist on 25th November 2025.



Over the years, I’ve refined my assessment methods and treatment techniques to provide the best possible outcomes for each client. One piece of feedback I often hear is, “I’ve never experienced this kind of assessment and treatment approach before.” That’s something I’m very proud of—it reflects the time, passion, and dedication I’ve put into mastering my craft.

My professional journey has been incredibly rewarding. From business ownership and teaching, to serving as a National Director early in my career, each experience has shaped the therapist I am today. As I look ahead to the next five years, I’m focused on continuing my professional development, refining my skills, and maintaining excellence in the field of remedial massage.

Christmas Break

Please note that I’ll be taking a Christmas break from 24th December 2025 to 22nd January 2026.

I look forward to returning refreshed and ready for an exciting year ahead!

Myofascial Technique & Anatomy

Fascia is a key component of the body’s connective tissue system. It includes structures such as joint capsules, ligaments, synovial membranes, and the layers surrounding every muscle. Fascia binds cells into tissues, tissues into organs, and organs into systems. It also connects muscles to bones, forms joints, and envelopes every nerve and blood vessel—essentially holding everything in place.

What Causes Connective Tissue Dysfunction?

-Physical trauma

-Structural imbalances and poor posture

-Repetitive strain (from work, sports, or daily habits)

-Pain and resulting protective muscle patterns

-Immobility (e.g., from casts, splints, or chronic holding patterns)

Layers of the Skin and Connective Tissue

-Epidermis

-Dermis

-Collagen fibres

-Superficial fascia

-Deep fascia

-Muscle

The Myofascial Release Technique

Myofascial release is a slow, controlled technique—similar to the movement of a snail. The goal is to apply the right amount of pressure to reach the deep fascia (fifth layer). When performed correctly, the tissue will gently “spring back” and soften, releasing tension and restoring balance. It has taken me many years to perfect this technique and achieve consistent, effective results.

Continued Professional Education in 2025

To stay current and enhance my clinical practice, I've been engaging in further education throughout the year, including:

-Rotator cuff–related shoulder pain

-Sporting injuries: Where does fascia fit in?

-Sciatic nerve anatomy & insights

-Addressing chronic neck conditions

-Common sports injuries – anatomical & massage perspectives

-International Virtual Symposium

-Ethics in practice

Gift Vouchers & Packages

Gift vouchers are available online at stevecampbellremedialmassage.com or directly from the clinic.

They’re a thoughtful gift for someone new to remedial massage—or you can purchase packages which is a great way for regular clients to purchase multiple treatments at once to save.

Thank you

I'd like to thank all my clients, past and present for your continued support.

Here’s to health, movement, and balance in 2026 and beyond!

Regards,

Steve Campbell

**Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!**



I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all my clients for their patronage and understanding throughout 2024. Your support means everything to me.



Please note that I will be closing on the 24th of December and will reopen on January 17.



On a personal note, 2024 has been quite challenging for me. My father had to undergo triple bypass surgery and an aorta replacement in June, which led to three weeks in intensive care and another two weeks in Burnie Hospital. While he still has a long journey ahead, every new day with him is a blessing. Despite these challenges, I have remained dedicated to my work, providing the best possible care to each of my clients from morning to late afternoon.



I am deeply moved by the testimonials I receive from clients. The thought and effort you put into sharing your experiences truly blows my mind. Knowing the impact my treatments have on your physical, mental, and spiritual well-being is incredibly rewarding. Thank you so much. If you’d like to read them, you can find them here: https://www.stevecampbellremedialmassage.com/testimonials



**Remedial Massage**



I would like to expand on last year's post about the advantages of remedial massage and my unique approach. Many clients tell me they have never experienced anything like my treatments. I begin by setting the scene with thorough client consent information, followed by appropriate testing and range-of-movement assessments to pinpoint issues. I explain the anatomy in layman's terms so the client understands, and then I outline the necessary steps for their remedial treatment.



I apply the appropriate pressure and techniques, such as circulation, mobilisation, traction, and glide, to make a significant impact on the soft tissues and surrounding muscle groups. After the treatment, I discuss stretching, joint loosening, and strength and conditioning exercises with the client to ensure lasting results.



**Professional Development 2024**



- First Aid Workplace Competency Level 2: My 8th competency in 24 years

- Is it Fascia? Understanding Fascia as a Source of Nociception in the Sensory Nervous System

- The Nervous System Response to Musculoskeletal Injury

- Exploring Low Back Pain

- Understanding Parkinson's Disease (Part 1)

- Parkinson's Disease Treatment (Part 2)



**Anniversaries in 2025**



- 10 years in my clinic next November

- 25 years as a Remedial Therapist next November



If you're stuck for a gift idea, you can get a gift voucher online or in-store right up until December 24. You can find them online here: https://www.stevecampbellremedialmassage.com/store/Gift-voucher-p97347897



I wish you all health and prosperity in the future and beyond.



Cheers

Wow, what a big year it has been in 2023! I would like to thank all my existing clients and also all the new clients who have attended my Remedial massage clinic. It is an honour to be able to treat you. Thank you so much.

Anniversaries:

Recently celebrated my 8th anniversary at the clinic. Time has gone so fast!

Just received my 20-year Membership with Massage & Myotherapy Australia. I was also a member of the Australian Association of Massage Therapists for 3 years before that, which in total is 23 years within my profession.

Training:

Fluid dynamics and the thoracic outlet

Exploring sciatica & radicular pain part 1

Exploring sciatic & radicular pain part 2

Iliopsoas in its structured function

Ethics in Practice certification

I get this question a lot: what is the advantage of having a remedial massage? Remedial Massage benefits you gain on having treatment:

Blood circulation

Increases mobility & range of movement

Releases soft tissues and adhesions

Treats things like soft tissue injuries, chronic pain, neck, shoulders, back hips legs and arms, joints, ligaments, tendons, mental & emotional well-being, reduces stress to the skeletal structures and stretches.

Lymphatic treatment: Over the past few years, I’m treating more clients with Lymphatic issues such as Lymphedema and Oedema, which is fluid building in areas of the body and not draining as it should, such as stomach, ankles, legs, arms, and face. If you are suffering from fluid build-up, this would be great for your condition. The Lymph vessels are just under the skin and go to the Lymph nodes to filter lymph fluid as it passes through your body. The technique required to do this treatment is very light and it mimics how the lymph vessels work in a caterpillar motion.

Christmas gift vouchers: You can purchase them online at https://www.stevecampbellremedialmassage.com/store/ or drop into the clinic. I’ll be working right up until the 24th so it’s a great last minute gift idea. You can find me back at work on the 19th of January. I hope to see you in the clinic soon!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Hi everyone,

First off, I wish you all a safe and healthy 2022.

The clinic hit the ground running last year and continued all the way through, I got to be 8 weeks booked out and had an extensive cancellation list. I would like to thank you all for your wonderful patronage and the confidence you have in the services I provide.

I would also like to acknowledge all the wonderful testimonials I had last year on my website, Google and Facebook. It blows me out of the water with all your comments.

Living with the virus all the procedures at the clinic will be wearing a face mask whilst having treatment, using hand sanitiser and filling out my COVID-19 consent form.

If you have any symptoms at all please reschedule your appointment.

I'm glad to tell you all that I will open up more appointments in February on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. In total, another 6 appointments will be available per week.

I have revisited a lot of my course notes recently and there are some techniques that I'm excited to bring into the clinic that I have not used for a long time.

Training in 2022 will also depend on the pandemic. I will choose what is appropriate for the clinic going forward.

A question I get asked a lot is regarding how I work with soft tissue and get results. Over the years I have formed a great sense of palpation skill in treating soft tissue and finding the appropriate level of depth in the soft tissue to start the healing process. With a multitude of techniques and stimulation to the nervous system which controls firing a muscle.

To make a booking you can go to stevecampbellremedialmassage.com

Until the next post, keep safe and may your health be paramount.

As previously mentioned, my rebranding has started.

I have a new logo as you can see, I have new style shirts and hat that have a new design and colour scheme, new A3 signage out the front of the clinic, new signage going up in the treatment room, my changed keynote on my website, Google, and Facebook to hit my niche market in remedial and deep tissue massage.

What my new logo represents:

It is bold and shows strength, the white dots represent the vertebrae which is a major function in the human body.

The three-quarter circle represents coming to the end of a cycle and wanting a change in what is happening with your soft tissue dysfunction and most people leaving it to the last minute to seek treatment.

The healing hands are waiting to make a difference and a change.

I hope to see you soon,
Cheers
Steve

Hi to you all, I wish you all a happy and healthy new year in 2021.
The reason for this post is to share with you my thoughts over my break.

With the year we had in 2020 and the pandemic taking hold all over the world my mind and body needed a well-earned rest. It is amazing on how we all keep going then once you take your foot off the accelerator and hit the brakes it gives you time to sit back, smell the roses, let the dust settle and work out what is important. I have had that chance to do that over my holidays, and my motto for 2021 is: “take time for yourself and be in the present”.

In my break, I was able to switch off and do the things I love the most. I have had the chance to sleep in, visit a lot of coffee shops, have extra gym sessions, play golf, and spend time with family and close friends; even do a bit of retail shopping for that therapeutic feel-good vibe. I feel rejuvenated and ready to hit the ground running.

Looking at my bookings, I'm currently booked out until early March. I want to thank everyone again for their great patronage including the new clients that have booked. If you have a gift voucher, don't panic there is no use-by date, you can use them any time.

The dry needling course I spoke about in my last post, I am going to err on the side of caution. I was thinking of doing course early in 2021, but now with the new variant from the UK, I'll have to have the vaccine before I'm comfortable flying interstate, it's not worth the risk. I'll keep you posted once I decide when to go.

Rebranding my business - Currently, I am looking at a new uniform change and hat and changing the colours around with a bit of extra embroidery, a towel colour change, subtle change to my business cards and a new image or wording in the logo, I'm excited with these in the pipeline.
I am looking at rewording my keynote on the website homepage, google and my business page to hit my niche market in remedial massage and deep tissue.

A question I get asked a lot by clients is how do you work week in week out over a long period. I’ll share the answer with you, there are five things that I do that helps make this happen.

-Passion, I'm still as passionate as the first day I qualified back in 2000, I strive to give excellence in my profession.

-Fitness plays a huge part in my deliverance of remedial and deep tissue work, I mean by that the strength and conditioning I do in the gym plus my stretching and joint loosening and my aerobic fitness which enables me to do 40 plus treatments week after week. Not losing anything from my first client to my last client of the day or at the end of the week.

-Diet Plays a huge part of the amount of my energy I can output. I keep it quite simple with 6 meals, all portioned that include carbs, protein, nuts, fruit, and my caffeine shot once a day followed by lots of water to fend off dehydration, once you start licking your lips you are on the way to be dehydrated.

-Sleep Is especially important to me. I require around at least 8 hours to reboot me after a solid day's work.

-Outcomes for my clients, when a client comes to the clinic and has had an ongoing issue or even just a just a small issue, seeing them get better after a treatment motivates me greatly.

I hope that has answered the question for you all :)
Until next post
