Massage 12 minutes from Hope Island

Hope Island is one of the Gold Coast's premier waterfront and golfing communities — and its residents know quality when they see it. Massage by Laura is about 12 minutes away in Runaway Bay: one-on-one remedial and relaxation massage in a calm private studio, with free parking and 100+ five-star Google reviews.

Remedial and relaxation massage for Hope Island residents

Hope Island is known for its resort-style living — marina, championship golf courses, gated waterfront estates, and a community of professionals and retirees who value doing things well. Golf, boating and an active lifestyle are wonderful, but they are also hard on shoulders, backs and hips. Massage by Laura gives Hope Island residents a genuinely personal alternative to the big spas: every session is one-on-one with Laura, an ATMS-registered remedial massage therapist, in a quiet private studio a short drive away.

From golf-related shoulder and back tension to a restorative hot stone or lymphatic drainage treatment, Hope Island locals are well looked after.

Getting to the studio from Hope Island

The drive from Hope Island takes around 12 minutes. Follow Hope Island Road south and onto Oxley Drive into Runaway Bay — we are at Shop 4, 465 Oxley Drive, with free on-site parking. It is an easy, relaxed run from the island out to the studio.

Why Hope Island clients choose Massage by Laura

With 100+ five-star Google reviews, health fund rebates on eligible remedial treatments, MLD certification and free parking, it is a considered choice worth the short drive.

Health fund rebates
