Why live with pain and inefficient movement?
About
Welcome to Body Balancing Therapeutic and Sports Massage on the Gold Coast
Hi, my name is Marc Fraser-Bell and I’ve been working with the local Gold Coast community and sports people for the past 30 years.
Helping people with acute and chronics injuries, painful movement patterns, looking after sports men and women to compete at their optimum. But it’s not only sports people I work with, far from it. I also assist people from all walks of life, mums, dads and all ages from children to the older population. Increasing mobility, breaking down poor movement and pain patterns, whilst also helping people recover from painful injuries, chronic problems and surgery.
I do this, not only through numerous hands on modalities, but through education, stretching and strengthening exercises specific to each persons needs.

What I do?
My job as a manual therapist, is to try to get you moving better, to get you out of pain as quickly as I can. As you become more mobile with less pain patterns then the body will tend to heal itself. It’s not me doing it but allowing the body to do what it does, what it is designed to do. Heal itself and come back to that place of balance.

What my clients say
As a full-time athlete competing professionally for just over 10 years now, with my recovery my body needs to be in the best possible condition to perform at my peak. I have been working with Marc for a little over 5 years now and his knowledge and professional sports massage and injury management services are the best in the business. His understanding of injuries, imbalance and his feel for muscular tightness and restrictions allows me to relax knowing I’m in good hands and will be walking out the doorway better than when I came in!
Marc, thanks so much for all my treatments over the years when I’m on the Gold Coast. Massage is an invaluable part of my overall approach to help with recovery, injuries and keeping my muscle loose and flexible so I can train and compete at 100%. I get treated all over the world and your massage treatments are really the best I receive. I always look forward to seeing you and I know whatever problem I have I know you will sort it out and fix it. Marc, you are a valuable part of my end performance.
As a professional athlete, I take my massage’s very seriously. It is no doubt my favourite 90 min of each week and the most important. Marc has not only kept my body fine-tuned over the past 10 years but we’ve also been able to work on various stretching techniques to improve my mobility and keeping me injury free. With Marc being a former top-level swimmer and athlete as well I believe he has that extra special knowledge that keeps me ahead of the game. Whether you’re after that high-level massage or something to relieve the stress after a hards day work Marc is your man. Thanks for all your help Marc to reach my goals.
Marc is the best there is! His understanding of the body’s mechanics and how to get the body back to its best is phenomenal. Always goes above and beyond to get the body back working correctly and helps with ways to improve it outside the treatment room. You’ll wish you saw him earlier after your first appointment.
As an X professional wakeboarder I get the importance of staying tuned up. I have trusted Marc with keeping me moving for many years now and he has never let me down. I would recommend this guy to anyone! Thank you Marc!
Marc's hands on treatments and expertise in understanding the movement and connectivity of my body was crucial to my recovery after fracturing my back in a surfing accident. He consistently guided me toward mindfulness and positivity, and thanks to his skills and techniques, my rehabilitation was not only successful but continues to benefit me to this day. Marc's deep knowledge and approach to strength and conditioning are invaluable, and I hold him in the highest regard. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Energizing Wellness
PEMF Therapy
Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy sends magnetic energy into the body to stimulate and exercise cells to help resolve cellular dysfunction and to support overall wellness.
What Are the Benefits of PEMF?
PEMF is an effective, non-invasive, and side-effect-free antidote to pain. It directly affects nerve cells that are communicating to our brain that our body is experiencing pain. It has anti-inflammatory implications, helping to minimize pain. This also affects flexibility – especially when treating stiff and inflamed muscles. PEMF treatment increases the range of motion that can be achieved and results are often immediate. For bone fractures, PEMF is especially useful in healing non-union fractures. This is because electromagnetic waves are the earth’s tool to cause biochemical changes that ultimately result in an increased speed in bone formation.
Pulsed PEMF therapy helps restore this disruption in electrical current to the normal state, which promotes overall wellness.
In addition to impacting inflammation and bone healing, here’s just a sampling of the many other benefits of PEMF:
- Enhances the body natural recovery & healing process
- Relieves nerve pain, chronic pain & inflammation
- Regulates certain functions through its impact on the autonomic nervous system
- Activates bone-cartilage cell stimulation
- Regenerates nerves through stimulating nerve cells to grow
- Activates part of the immune system – white blood cells called macrophages
- Reduces stress with direct impact on norepinephrine and epinephrine
- Heals wounds
- Improves metabolic health
- ImpImproves circulation; thus oxygenation to tissuesroves metabolic health
- Regulates digestive activity
- Improves melatonin production
- Strengthens immune system
- Many more benefits
What Should I Expect for My Session?
A PEMF session typically lasts 20-45 minutes. You’ll lay down on a massage table fully clothed, the device will be put on and a timer will be set and direct the paddle over the affected area. We’ll let you relax and that’s it!
This Therapy can be used during a treatment session or used as a stand-alone session.
