“Gerard at Inner Health Solutions is a true find, and one of THE BEST remedial therapists I have been to. There is nothing he cant fix. A master at head, neck, shoulders, back. I have been going to him for a couple of years now, and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Incredibly professional, very knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about the wellbeing of his clients. Very focussed on preventative techniques, whether its suggesting exercises to stretch or strengthen, relaxation techniques or complementary types of exercise. Genuine, trustworthy and incredibly good at what he does I highly recommend him!”

Carolyn McConachy

“I was first referred to Gerard O’Riley of Inner Health Solutions by a friend over 6 years ago. She spoke very highly of Gerard’s skills as a massage therapist and I soon discovered why. I have been receiving regular massages since and have referred others to Gerard also and they have joined the ranks of highly satisfied clients. Gerard is an extremely skilled and knowledgeable massage therapist able to respond to a range of health issues and presentations. He has a respectful and empowering manner. He is very generous with sharing his expertise and recommendations for practices to assist and strengthen one’s well being and maintain progress between sessions. Gerard’s holistic orientation is evident in his approach and manner. He is very flexible and responsive to arranging appointments across a range of times and days (including at short notice). His fees are very reasonable and includes offering concessions which is greatly appreciated.   I highly recommend Gerard’s services and am very appreciative to have him as a health practitioner.”

“I recently injured my elbow playing tennis and went to Inner Health Solutions for help. This was my first experience with massage. The therapeutic massage helped me keep playing and my elbow was pain free after three sessions. The overall benefits of a regular massage have been great and I keep asking myself “Why didn’t I start this years ago?”

Jane Ortiz, Principal Coach, Ortiz Consulting Services, Melbourne, Victoria.

“Gerard O’Riley, Principal Remedial Therapist at Inner Health Solutions, true interest in his clients and honest advice makes me highly impressed. That is the reason I recommend him as the best pain therapist I know without doubt.”
