Max Therapy's first store was opened in Knox Shopping Centre in 2004. With elements of ancient Chinese Medicine, we developed treatments to increase the rate of recovery from injury and illness, and to achieve good health and well being, Max Therapy goal was simple, to provide simple, affordable massage therapy to help people gain the health benefits that massage therapy provides.
Our goal is to make Chinese acupressure massage and medicine easily available through our retail stores. After 7 years of establishing our business through trial and testing, we have now grown to 23 stores around Melbourne.
One of the key elements for us in growing Max Therapy has been keeping at the forefront of Chinese acupressure massage and medicine along with western style massage, remedial massage and myotherapy. Towards the end of March 2010, we opened Max Therapy Institute (nationally recognised). This allows us to ensure our franchisees and their staff receive the highest degree of initial and ongoing training.
The quality of our treatments, our focus on service and the strong brand we have built, has allowed us to build a large loyal customer base at store level and has made Max Therapy one of the most exciting franchise opportunities available in Australia today.
Max Therapy on Chapel Street is my favourite therapeutic massage centre in Melbourne. I have been to several around the city and I found this place to be consistent, great quality, well priced, friendly and professional. Personally myself, I prefer a very firm technique and all their staff are highly trained and skilled in targeting my knots and high tension areas. I make it an effort to see them weekly or fortnightly. Thank you for giving me relief on my shoulders. Highly recommend!

I've been getting massages since High School, I've had a bad shoulder since a young age and then career wise I've ended up with more pain in my bad shoulder and that grabbing muscle pain lower back every now and then. I can't believe I've been living in this area for 6 years and hadn't been to this place until recently! Hands down the best massage I've had in all my years of getting massages.

Excellent shopping centre massage shop. I used to get massages almost every week at various shopping centres. Now I'm a regular at Melbourne Central Max Therapy. It's the only one that is consistently above average. I've had at least 4 different masseuse over 3 months. Management is excellent. They have proper massage tables, HICAPS facilities, take bookings, allow for credit card payment without surcharge and offer loyalty reward card... all for a very reasonable price. Everyone I've recommended so far are returning customers. The staff will look after you.

Best remedial massage I've had (and I've had a few)! Roman was very experienced, highly professional, targeted tender areas, and also gave me very handy tips about how to improve my general muscular health. I highly recommend to anyone to go and see him. Went in with a very sore lower back and now have absolutely no trace of discomfort. Will be back!

I went to the Max Therapy in Elizabeth Street, Melbourne, in the city. I was a walk-in off the street on a Sunday afternoon. I got in straight away and had a 30 minute leg massage for $45. Very good therapist who almost put me to sleep in a very short time. Very friendly service. I'll visit again.

I went for a 70 minutes oil and hot stone massage with my mum as a treat. I have had countless massages in the UK and across Asia and I have to admit that this was one of the best I've received. I could easily have stayed an extra hour. Pablo was very attentive and made sure I was comfortable throughout and my mum received the same level of service from another employee. I'd definitely go back again :).
