Blake is super knowledgeable and thorough! I paid him a visit to work through some overall tightness and compression and he worked his magic and gave me some great advice to take home and things to work on. Highly recommend!!

Blake is a Wizard. That's the only way to explain how well I felt after my second session, working on mildly herniated discs. He's also good for imparting lots of knowledge and a friendly natter during the session too.

Mason Tangimetua

I’ve had a few sessions now with Blake and am feeling much better. My hips and lower back have been off for a few years and after only a few session am feeling so much better. Will continue regular session.

Five-star review and then some! Have been battling a shoulder condition since March 2024, and ended up receiving cortisone injections as physio was not addressing the problem. I'd been following Blake online for a while, and being North Qld based couldn't pop down to Malvern to see him in person. However, I reached out and he was able to book in an online session. Best decision as it turns out. We had a one hour consult that diagnosed the condition, worked on some exercises to reverse the condition and I have follow up exercises for homework that are improving the condition on a daily basis. Could not recommend more highly; intuitive, capable, and a genuine pleasure to work with. Thank you Blake!

Brilliant help treatment going well

Amanda Berntsen

I am a hands on Physiotherapist and my work over the last 34 years has taken its toll on my body. Blake has helped me with a very complex shoulder injury. Over several treatments he has worked on some extremely tight and thickened muscles and fascial adhesions around my shoulder that are contributing to my chronic pain and shoulder dysfunction. My pain has markedly improved, as has my range of movement. Blake is intuitive, knowledgeable and caring….qualities that make a very effective therapist. I would highly recommend him.

Sam is fantastic in releasing the tightness in calf muscles and right knee. Lower back and shoulders feel great after a session too.

Been going to Blake for a few months now and this guy knows what he is doing. After a broken arm Blake is more than just a remedial therapist and has knowledge to that of a physio or myo. Easy location and parking is plentiful. Can't recommend him enough.

April Lieschke

Blake has been amazing, from getting my body into great condition for my upcoming races, to ensuring that any little niggles or problems are taken care of. Couldn’t recommend him enough!

Andrew Heffernan
September 6, 2024

I’m a keen runner and have had some history with soft tissue related injuries which I have been able to get on top of this year and looking to prevent moving forward! Blake’s expertise in biomechanics and bodywork was evident as he carefully noted these findings and tailored a treatment plan to address my specific issues. Thanks to his targeted approach and dedication to helping clients achieve lasting relief, I have noticed significant improvements in my flexibility and a reduction in muscle tightness. I highly recommend Nexus Bodywork Clinic to anyone dealing with similar issues.

Trish McCann
September 5, 2024

My daughter has been going to blake for about a month. i have seen such a difference in my daughter. She has almost got back to her normal self, with lots of help from Blake. My daughter just go out of physical rehab. I must say that helped but not as much as Blake. My daughter has got back to cooking and lifting a few light things nothing too heavy. If you have pain please give Blake a go.

Toni Cresci

I’m really impressed by Blake’s holistic approach. Apart from focusing on pain management he is interested in treating the underlying cause through exercise and self care. He’s prescribed a plan that is easy to follow and making a difference already.

Natalie Martin

Sam at Nexus is AMAZING! Sam finds my tension trigger points every time and releases my back and neck pain and sciatica instantly! Sam has a thorough and explorative approach and provides ongoing stretches and exercises to combat my pain. I recommend Sam and Nexus to all my friends and family.

I first started seeing Blake after I was recovering from an overload injury training for a half marathon. Since then I see him weekly to help with my recovery and management as I am now training for a full marathon. Can't rate him high enough.

Kate Newey

Blake has been amazing. I have a niggly old hip injury and have seen many different treaters for years and he took the time to understand the issue and treat the cause. I walked out like I was walking on clouds and with a follow up consult plan with strengthening exercises and stretches. I highly recommend and will be back.

Rude Ee
July 5, 2024

Blake makes sure he understands the pain points and issue and treats you with great care. Not only did i leave pain free but the exercises he suggested helps prevent the issue from reoccurring. The facility is stunning and calming and i will be back should i need some knots and sprains worked on! Great work Blake!!

J Gray
July 5, 2024

You can clearly tell that Blake is very passionate and knowledgeable about what he does. I have seen him numerous times and always leave feeling better both physically and mentally. Don’t waste your time and money with your average physio who gives you generic exercises anyone can pull from the internet. Blake has a customised and targeted approach which gets to the root of your aches and pains. Can highly recommend.

Vikram Jayaprakash
July 4, 2024

Blake was awesome. Really helped me out. Really helped break down that old scar tissue and help with better mobility. Highly recommended.

Francesca Stafford
July 3, 2024

I've been to a lot of physios over the year and would recommend Blake to anyone who needs a fresh and customised approach. He takes the time to get to know you, and develops a personalised in-session and take-home treatment plan (and provides exercises that are easy to incorporate into your lifestyle so you actually do them!). Over the last 2 years I've seen him for back, chest and lower leg injuries, and each time he's been able to treat me without doing the typical physio thing of telling you to stop training which I appreciate! Highly recommend booking in for a session at his new Malvern clinic

Ross Raciti
July 3, 2024

I can hostly say since I started seeing Blake for back, shoulder and neck issues I never felt better.

Sally Mearney
July 2, 2024

Blake has helped me immensely with shoulder pain caused from repetatively working arms extended above my head. ie painting, sanding. He not only treated my shoulders but also taught me a better way to do things as to cause less pain. Very knowledgeable and a very caring bedside manner. Thankyou so much Blake.

Andrew Kurjan
June 7, 2024

I can’t not leave Blake a review! I’ve been to countless physiotherapists over the years who all give you the same exercises scribbled on a scrap piece of paper and get you to come back every two weeks till you cancel and/or don’t even end up doing the homework because it just feels like a band aid. I took a risk seeing Blake a few weeks back and have been blown away, the exercises are so functional that it makes you want to do the work because you can honestly feel a difference in strength and mobility within days, my only issue is I wish we’d done this months ago!

Alexander Kim
June 3, 2024

Highly recommend Sam. Sam’s personalised approach helped me recover from running injury! Exceptional experience!

Janssen Tang
June 1, 2024

I highly recommend anyone who is suffering from muscular pain to see Blake from Nexus Bodywork. He has eliminated my lower back pain that I had for years. Very professional and an expert in this area. He takes the time to understand your issue by performing a thorough assessment to understand the underlying issue and then puts together a treatment plan that is tailored specifically for you. Well worth the drive to see Blake.

Sam is absolutely amazing. Wouldn't go anywhere else for remedial therapy, dry needling etc. Super friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Thanks Sam!!

Sam provides excellent remedial therapy and dry needling treatment. His extensive experience as a sports trainer for local football clubs and competitive road cycling is evident in his work. Highly recommended!

Anthony Falckh
May 18, 2024

Highly highly recommend Blake. He has helped me through two separate injuries since knowing him and I could not recommend him and his approach and services any higher. Without his help I would probably still be struggling with my back injury. He is extremely approachable and professional and has a great knowledge of the human body. He ensures is knowledge is up to date and I feel goes above and beyond for his clients.

Lindsie Arthur-Hulme
May 16, 2024

My experiences at Nexus have been really positive. I've had a few massages here with Blake and I always leave feeling much better than when I arrived. I like his approach to the body too, combining movement with pressure point release always feels really effective for my body.

Mikayla Pakios
May 13, 2024

I have recently started seeing Blake at Nexus Bodywork for chronic back and shoulder pain and I could not speak more highly of him! He is very professional and knowledgeable, and has a holistic approach which is evident in his attention to detail and the time he takes to thoroughly assess and work on my areas of concern. He has even taken the time to educate me and develop a treatment plan which is tailored to my needs. He is definitely an expert in his field!

José Ortiz
May 10, 2024

I've continued to see Blake at Nexus Bodywork because I appreciate his holistic approach to healing. It's always been more than just a massage, bodywork or physical training. Blake looks to connect the dots through exploring other essential elements of wellbeing such as sleep, diet and exercise. I also value his knowledge and attention to detail. Blake always goes the extra mile which is rare. Whether it's providing you with a post treatment plan and following up on that to not only see how you're going with it but to simply ask how you're doing overall. I place a lot of emphasis on that kind of level of care and it's something that sets Blake apart.
