Leena Prasad
Remedial Massage Therapist and Dry Needling Therapist
Ashgrove & Moorooka Clinics
More than a massage
Leena brings almost 30 years of hands-on experience to every session. Her background in Traditional Chinese Medicine, including training in acupuncture, shapes how she works. She looks at the whole person, not just the sore spot.
Pain rarely comes on its own. Stress, poor sleep, tension and old injuries all feed into each other, so Leena considers how your body and mind are both coping before she decides how to treat you. Many clients come in for a stiff neck or recurring headaches and leave feeling lighter, calmer and more settled as well.
No two sessions are the same. Leena tailors each one to what your body needs on the day, drawing on Western and Eastern techniques to get the best result for you.
Leena particularly enjoys helping people with:
- Headaches and migraines
- Muscle and joint pain
- Persistent (chronic) pain
- Stress-related tension and feeling “wound up”
- Sleep difficulties
- Lymphatic drainage
Depending on your needs, Leena may use:
- Deep tissue remedial massage
- Dry needling and Western acupuncture
- Intramuscular stimulation (IMS)
- Myofascial release
- Lymphatic drainage
- Cupping
- Acupressure
Please note: Leena is not registered with private health funds, so her sessions can’t be claimed through your health insurance.
