Recovery partner for endurance and everyday athletes
About Liam
Liam Stanley
Remedial and Sports Massage Therapist
London-born Melbourne local and obsessed with the science of peak performance
With a Bachelor in Sports Therapy from the University College Birmingham (UK) and a career spent in the inner circles of AFL and professional soccer clubs, I provide elite-level remedial massage and sports massage in South Yarra, Bentleigh East, Hampton and mobile massage across Melbourne for endurance and everyday athletes.
I’ve seen firsthand what it takes to keep an elite body at its peak, and I translate those high-level locker room techniques into targeted manual therapy. Having navigated my own injury setbacks, my approach is clinical and compassionate. Whether you are an athlete or active professional striving for better, I believe you deserve a body that moves without limits.
Outside the clinic, I’m a lifelong Spurs fan and a footballer at heart. Currently, I’m a beginner golfer on a quest to conquer the best public golf courses in Australia (though my swing remains a work in progress!).
Treatment
Explore the range of recovery treatments designed to help athletes and active professionals perform better.
-
Dynamic. Functional. Result-Oriented.
Designed for athletes to support a faster and better recovery by decreasing muscle soreness and optimising mobility through increased blood flow in the muscles. A combination of deep tissue, stretching and trigger point therapy are adapted for pre-event preparation, post-event recovery or managing high training loads.
-
Diagnostic. Thorough. Corrective.
A clinical style of massage that assesses and treats specific muscles, tendons and ligaments to relieve persistent pain, restore function and aid recovery caused by an injury, recurring “niggles” or postural strain. It’s tailored to the individual’s condition and often used alongside other rehabilitation such as physiotherapy and chriopractic.
-
Not your typical corporate chair massage, what I offer is an elite-level mobile table massage recovery station across metropolitan Melbourne ideal for:
EVENTS: On brand, modern setup and the kind that gets everyone talking, elevating your guests’ brand experience.
SPORTS TEAMS: Flexible setup, tailored treatments and organised scheduling, I work with AFL, A-leagues and professional sports teams for their pre-game warm-up, post-match recovery or game day sidelines.
-
An ancient practice that uses suction to gently lift the fascia upwards and away from the muscle to relieve tightness and tension, improve blood flow to support the body's natural healing and help reduce inflammation helping you move better.
-
A proven technique to limit unwanted movements. Taping helps in managing or preventing injuries, reduce discomfort and speeds up healing.

Client Reviews

“Had a remedial massage with Liam. He was fantastic, very knowledgeable and personable. Not only did he relieve my aching muscles, but he filled my head with ways to combat and reduce muscle fatigue in the future. I’ll be seeing him regularly for sure.”

“Great recovery treatment with Liam at Active Health Performance Hub!
Liam was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to understand what I needed. The treatment was thorough and targeted exactly the right areas. I left feeling much looser. Will be back.”

“I had a shoulder and neck treatment done by Liam. I had a bit of a tight neck a few weeks ago that was feeling good after a chiropractor treatment 2 weeks ago, and Liam did his magic with his sport massage and fixed it completely. Left feeling super refreshed and ready to get back to training at my full capacity.
Liam’s a great guy and good conversation through the treatment. Highly recommend to get you back to feeling 100%.”
