Hi, I’m Mike! I moved to St Helens from sunny Cairns in July 2024 after a long career in the health and finance sectors. When I semi-retired, I knew Tasmania was where I wanted to be — a place to slow down, enjoy the community, and start a new chapter. After settling in and getting to know St Helens, I decided it was the perfect time to follow my passion and open Mike’s Massage. I’m now a certified Whole Body Massage Practitioner specializing in relaxation massage and remedial massage, and I love helping people feel relaxed, restored, and re-balanced. Whether you’re a local or visiting our beautiful part of Tasmania, you can expect a professional, caring, and understanding experience every time you visit.

What to wear and other top tips to prepare for a massage
What should I wear to a massage?
It’s best to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing to your treatment. Avoid tight or restrictive clothing, as there may be a small amount of residual massage oil left on your skin afterward, which could transfer onto your clothes and cause discomfort.
Do I Have to Be Completely Undressed During a Massage?
Not at all. You do not need to be completely undressed if you feel more comfortable keeping your underwear on. Most clients choose to fully undress for a full-body massage, as it allows the therapist to work more effectively across the entire body — but ultimately, it’s entirely up to you. You should always undress to your own level of comfort.
Many people prefer to keep their underwear on during the treatment, which is perfectly fine. If you’re wearing a bra, removing it can help your therapist access your back more effectively.
Throughout your session, you will always be properly draped with a towel or blanket for privacy and comfort. A professional massage therapist will adjust the covering only for the area being worked on, ensuring that you are never exposed at any time.
Before your treatment begins, the therapist will leave the room to give you privacy while you undress and get comfortable on the massage table.
