As an elite Queensland Academy of Sport flatwater kayaker, I was introduced to Brendan and Total Massage in 2002. Massage became an important aspect of recovery from the hard training of elite flatwater kayaking. Weekly regular massages kept my body in top shape, ready for whatever my coach could throw at me and was a vital in my preparation for racing. Post wrist surgery in 2005, Brendan and massage assisted my recovery and allowed me to return to International competition within 12 months. I continued my career as a Queensland Academy of Sport, Australian Institute of Sport and Australian Kayak Team member until retirement in September 2009 with the support of Brendan and Total Massage.”

Alex Woodley – Dip Ac. Dip T.M

“I have been suffering tension headaches for many years now and had no significant relief from main stream medicine. Several months ago I sought treatment from Brendan Wong and using traditional massage as well as Panabaa Release techniques Brendan has bought me a great relief. I would recommend this treatment to anyone suffering headaches where soft tissue tension is a factor.”
