Fitzroy North Local Business Spotlight: Body Align Myotherapy & Massage
1. What is Body Align Myotherapy & Massage?
Body Align Myotherapy & Massage is a calm, welcoming space where you can experience effective, high-quality treatments that help you relax, reconnect and re-align.
We focus on personalised care, understanding that every body is different. Our friendly and experienced therapists take the time to listen, understand your goals, and tailor each treatment to your body’s individual needs.
By combining strong clinical knowledge with hands-on care, we treat muscular pain, tension, injuries, and stress while supporting your body through preventative, corrective, and rehabilitative stages. We aim to address the root cause of each condition and provide practical advice for long-term results, helping you move better, feel better, and live with less pain.
We offer: Myotherapy & Massage (Remedial, Sports, Relaxation, Pregnancy, and Lymphatic treatments).
2. How long have you been in business, and what sparked the idea to start it?
Founded in 2007 by Carissa, Body Align Myotherapy was born from a passion for combining movement with hands-on treatment. While working as a rehabilitation Pilates instructor at Body Logic Pilates and practising as a myotherapist in regional Victoria, Carissa saw the opportunity to bring both approaches together when Body Logic Pilates relocated to new premises with treatment rooms. Since then, Body Align has grown and evolved, including relocations and expansions, and now focuses on delivering expert myotherapy and massage services.
3. What makes Body Align unique?
From the moment you walk through our doors, the space itself invites you to exhale. Soft lighting, gentle scents, organic tea, and a calm atmosphere to help you feel at ease right away. Our team greets you with warmth and genuine care, creating a sense of comfort before your treatment even begins. It’s a place where your shoulders drop, your breath slows, and your body knows it’s in good hands.
4. Why is supporting local important to you?
Supporting local is important to us because it helps our community to thrive. It means stronger social and business connections and we love the friendly, village vibe of Queens Parade. Knowing we can fully trust local businesses and the people behind them, means the world to us.
5. What’s been your biggest lesson as a business owner?
My biggest lesson as a business owner has been resilience. There have been plenty of challenges, but if you have the passion, you just keep going. Running a business teaches you to stay focused on your purpose, the people you help, and supporting your amazing team, and that makes it all incredibly rewarding.
6. Where do you see alignment with what you do and 5th Element Wellness?
We have great alignment with 5th Element Wellness. At Body Align, we focus on hands-on treatments, while collaborating with 5th Element to provide clients with rehab, strength, and mobility programs, giving them a complete approach to recovery and long-term wellness.
7. Where can people find you?
We are located just down the road at 107 Queens Pde, Clifton Hill. Located inside the building Clifton Hill Therapies.
