Remedial and relaxation massage for Southport residents
As the Gold Coast's traditional CBD, Southport keeps a lot of people busy — office and professional workers around Australia Fair and the Southport business district, students, health-precinct staff, and the runners and cyclists who make the most of the Broadwater Parklands. All of that sitting, screen time and training adds up in the body. Massage by Laura offers a genuinely restorative alternative just up the road: a quiet, private studio in Runaway Bay where every session is one-on-one with Laura, an ATMS-registered remedial massage therapist.
Whether you are dealing with desk-driven neck and shoulder tension, need recovery work after training along the Broadwater, or simply want to switch off with a relaxation massage, it is an easy trip from Southport.
Getting to the studio from Southport
The drive from Southport to our Runaway Bay studio takes roughly 13 minutes. Head north on the Gold Coast Highway or up Marine Parade, then follow Oxley Drive into Runaway Bay — we are at Shop 4, 465 Oxley Drive. Unlike the metered parking and busy streets around the Southport CBD and Australia Fair, there is free on-site parking right at the studio, so you can arrive relaxed and leave without watching the clock. It is a short, straightforward drive that regular Southport clients tell us is well worth it for the quality of the treatment and the calm of the space.
Treatments popular with Southport clients
Southport is a mix of professionals, students and active locals, and the treatments that get booked reflect that:
- Remedial massage — the go-to for office and professional workers carrying tension from long hours at a desk. See also desk-job and posture pain.
- Deep tissue massage — for stubborn muscle knots and chronic tightness that needs firmer work.
- Sports massage — recovery for Broadwater runners, cyclists and gym-goers.
- De-stress and relaxation massage — for busy professionals and students who need to genuinely switch off. See stress and anxiety.
- Remedial pregnancy massage — safe, supported care for expectant mums from the Southport area.
Why Southport clients make the short drive
Southport has plenty of large, busy clinics — but Massage by Laura is deliberately different. You see Laura herself every time, in a calm private studio rather than a high-turnover practice, and every session starts with a proper assessment so the treatment actually fits your body. With more than 100 five-star Google reviews, health fund rebates on eligible remedial treatments, and easy free parking, it is an easy call for Southport locals who want quality over convenience-around-the-corner.
Health fund rebates
Laura is an ATMS-registered remedial massage therapist, so most Southport clients with private health extras that include remedial massage can claim a rebate on eligible treatments. Just mention it when you book so your invoice is prepared correctly.
