Who We Work With

Our services are best suited to individuals seeking an integrated approach to the body that addresses pain, posture, and movement together.

We commonly work with people who:

  • Experience ongoing or recurring pain
  • Feel stiff, restricted, or uneven in their body
  • Notice strain in walking or everyday movement
  • Have tried other approaches with only short-term relief
  • Want a considered, whole-body approach rather than a quick fix

How it Works

We offer three services, each with a distinct focus.

Together, they support pain relief, improved posture, and better movement over time:

1. Remedial Massage

Targeted relief and introduction to bodywork

Remedial massage focuses on reducing pain, tension, and discomfort in specific areas. 

Great for those who have had no experience with bodywork therapies.

 Sessions are ideal for pain and tension relief or as an entry point for those new to bodywork.

Delivered by our remedial massage therapist Alysha.

2. Structural Bodywork

Whole-body change through hands-on work

Structural Bodywork takes a global approach, working with the body as a whole rather than focusing only on local areas.

Sessions aim to improve posture, balance, and how force is distributed through your body, rather than just treating symptoms.

A combination of Remedial Massage and Structural Integration, it’s ideal for shorter-term work, acute issues, or experiencing a structural approach without committing to a full series.

3. Structural Integration

A structured process for lasting change

Structural Integration is a progressive series of sessions designed to improve how your body moves and supports itself.

Each session builds on the last, working through the whole body to address underlying patterns rather than isolated issues.

Best suited for those ready to commit to a process and achieve long-term improvements in posture, movement, and overall ease.

  • 12-session series – a comprehensive process designed to support deeper, longer-term structural change over 12 sessions.
  • 3-session series –  a shorter series focused on the lower and upper body over 3 sessions.

Delivered by our Structural Integration Therapist Lewis Loder.

Who you will be working with

Balance Integrative Bodywork is led by Lewis Loder, an Anatomy Trains Teacher and Structural Integration Practitioner.

Lewis’s work draws from Anatomy Trains Structural Integration and gait-based movement approaches, focusing on how posture and movement patterns develop — and how they can be unwound with bodywork and movement.

Care is delivered with clear assessment, intentional hands-on work, and an emphasis on helping clients understand their own bodies. This approach supports improved body awareness, reduced tension, and more efficient movement.

About Lewis

Lewis’s pathway into bodywork began through his own experience with chronic lower back pain. After years of persistent discomfort, completing a full 12-session Anatomy Trains Structural Integration series led to lasting relief and a deeper understanding of how his body functioned as a whole.

That experience shaped his clinical approach today — working beyond symptoms to address underlying patterns that influence pain, posture, and movement.

His work is grounded, methodical, and focused on long-term change rather than short-term fixes.

Alysha – Remedial Massage Therapist

Alysha is a remedial massage therapist with a strong interest in how the body moves and adapts. After six years working in aged care, she was drawn to hands-on bodywork as a way to work more closely with individuals and provide focused, supportive care.

Her approach is attentive and adaptable, responding to what each body needs on the day. Sessions are guided by clear communication and assessment, allowing treatment to be tailored to areas of tension or discomfort. Alysha particularly enjoys working with common neck, back, and lower-leg tension.

Alongside her clinical work, Alysha has an ongoing personal interest in movement and body awareness. She regularly explores strength and coordination-based movement practices, which continue to shape how she understands and works with the body.

Alysha works within the clinic offering remedial massage for general tension, recovery, and maintenance care, and collaborates closely with Lewis to ensure clients are supported appropriately.

I had the best massage from Alysha. Perfect pressure – firm enough to be healing, but gentle too. Alysha is very good at picking up on problems in the body. She found a sore spot straight away and resolved it. Alysha is lovely – talks if you want to, quiet if you want that. I have multiple body problems, including rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia, and I felt in very safe hands with Alysha. She knew exactly how much pressure was best and would check with me for feedback. Thanks Alysha!

My 12-week Integrative Bodywork journey with Lewis was nothing short of transformative, life changing and powerful. From the very first session, Lewis created a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space that made it easy to trust the process and fully let go. His professionalism and expertise are evident in every session, and the results speak for themselves—I’ve noticed significant improvements in how I feel, move, look and carry myself in daily life. Beyond the physical benefits, the work also brought emotional clarity and a deeper connection to my body. I wholeheartedly recommend Lewis and this work to anyone. Taking this journey was one of the most rewarding acts of self-care I’ve ever committed to.

Thank You Lewis!

Lewis is an absolute master of his craft. I presented to him initially with what I thought were very complex symptoms in my neck, jaw & back that I had been struggling with for years. He’s done nothing but nail the treatment; not only alleviating pain but reducing anxiety, I feel like there is light at the end of a very long tunnel. I see him fortnightly and every time I leave I look forward to my next session. I Cannot sing his praises loudly enough. Go see Lewis.

Dejected, I had just returned home from seeing a specialist who offered to either put in an injection into the centre of my hip or to refer me to a back specialist because he couldn’t pinpoint what was causing the continual pain that I had.
That day as I looked at my emails, one entitled back pain relief in my junk mail jumped out at me. It was sent from a structural alignment business. Usually I don’t read any junk mail but this day I was drawn to a story about a guy who had similar pain to me and testified that structural alignment really helped it. So I called the centre and booked in. Little did I know that the guy that wrote that story was treating me that day!! He was so impressed with structural alignment that he was training to treat others.
You may have guessed by now that “that guy” was Lewis.
I actually noticed a difference in my first session, although it didn’t completely take the pain away, and impressed me enough to come back again. I signed up for the 12 sessions that they recommend and by the sixth session, I felt pretty much back to normal!
I wondered if I would have to keep going every week to keep up the relief but I found after the 12 sessions, I could go longer and longer in between sessions. Fast forward two years, and I probably see Lewis once every couple of months or so.
I love the way I feel after a session! I feel balanced and more centered.
I definitely recommend seeing Lewis before you make any major decision on injections or even operations. You might just find that this natural, non-invasive treatment may just do the trick.

I can’t thank Lewis enough in correcting my posture and gait. It has made a big difference to my well being.
A very respectful, thoughtful professional, I would recommend him to anyone who is searching for help.

I first went to see Lewis with a swollen and painful knee, that was making it difficult to walk. A couple of sessions later and it was fully functioning, with me able to do pain free squats at Pilates. I highly recommend Lewis, a great practitioner and lovely human.

Lewis is an incredible human being and an exceptionally skilled practitioner. He combines care, sensitivity, and an impressive depth of knowledge about the complexities of the human body. His professional approach in recognising and addressing my mobility issues and pain levels went far beyond what my regular physio was able to provide. He listens attentively and tailors his approach to my specific needs, which has made a significant difference in my health. I highly recommend him for those seeking a knowledgeable, experienced, and compassionate body worker.

Lewis is a fantastic Structural Integration practitioner. His expertise and skillful touch have made a real difference in my body. His Structural Integration work has been truly transformative. He patiently and skillfully addressed the underlying imbalances in my body that were contributing to my pain. I always leave feeling more aligned, comfortable, and have greater freedom of movement. Highly recommended!

I avoided operation thanks to Lewis. So this is the single best thing I have ever done for my body!!

Lewis is incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to connect the dots to fix all your issues.

For years I had a slightly off posture, during work, gym, daily life…
I was unaware of this and it lead to a herniated disk.

Dr’s told me to get an epidural, and an operation. But I got no explanation as to WHAT caused the issue…

Then I went to Lewis. Lewis did a postural examination and he saw the issue immediately. He then did deep trigger point massages and remedial massages. This relaxed the affected areas, and let the body fall back into it’s natural, alligned, position.

Pain free after 2 sessions!! (Instead of surgery!)

Thanks to him I don’t need surgery, AND I can prevent this from happening in the future.

THE BEST 😊.
