Bliss Out: The Best Places to Get A Great Massage in Perth

Whether you’re feeling a little stiff, want to bliss out for an hour, or just because – there’s nothing quite like a massage to soothe, calm and recharge. From relaxation to remedial, gentle to vigorous, zen to sports, Perth offers a wealth of options for weary bodies, that can be found in some of the city's most achingly (in a good way) beautiful day spas or must-try fitness and wellness centres. 

Here are our top picks for a major bliss-out massage in Perth.

Bodhi

Dive into bliss at BODHI, a stunning day spa found in six locations around Perth. It's easily one of the most luxurious experiences to add to your self-care repertoire, dolling out an all-natural yet indulgent menu that includes some of the greatest massages in Perth.

Treat yourself to a BODHI Kodo Massage with added rocks. The 90-minute blissful journey it'll take you on is inspired by Australian Indigenous healing, delivering a unique rhythmic massage that melts away fatigue and tension, re-aligns energy flow and energises the mind and body. Spiralling movements and the activation of pressure points will also ground, uplift and calm the senses. 

A tonic to our modern pace of living, professional massage therapy is essential to melt away tension and fatigue. BODHI’s selection of massages do just that, whilst providing a blissful, sensory journey and reviving connection to self. Plus the lush surroundings and peaceful ambiance create an oasis of calm – a perfect escape from everyday life.

Multiple locations across the city

Greenhaus

You’ll love being in the beautiful surroundings of Greenhaus, whose striking, modern, luxe look was designed by Sabi Interiors. The unmissable massage ritual on the menu here is the Four Hands Serenity Ritual - an Australian exclusive, opulent experience, where two therapists work in synchronicity, inducing you into your deepest state of relaxation. The Crystal Healing Massage is another excellent option -  a mix of full body massage, with Sodashi Chakra balancing essential oil blends, crystal placement and Reiki. Reiki healing is also on offer - a non-invasive, light-touch alternative therapy to massage, to assist with balancing energies. 

All their products are vegan and Australian-made, with a big representation of WA brands (like Sodashi); so it's good to know your massage is ethical, too.

Greenhaus are enthusiastic on all the health benefits behind each treatment, and the team will walk you through the process, as well as make the experience a calming one for you with ambient lighting, beautiful music, and relaxing herbal teas to finish.

Clear Mind Studio

A warm, comforting and intimate studio, the locals of Inglewood are in great healing hands at Clear Mind, where there’s a team of several masseuses skilled at remedial massage styles, including  deep tissue, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release (MFR). There are also hot stone and pregnancy massages available.

Owned by Perth couple Craig and Karen, this urban retreat also offers floatation therapy and infrared sauna if you feel like upping the ante in the relaxation stakes - their ‘Escape for the Day’ package offers all three in one. If you’re up for something energising, you can even take a yoga and mat Pilates class.

Bodyscape Wellness Spa

Bodyscape are well known for their premium yoga studio, housed in a former Post Office on Stirling Highway. The Bodyscape Wellness Spa (in the same building) is equally as luxurious, and a must-visit whether you practicing yoga next door or not (fortunately for loyal yogi's, Bodyscape members get to enjoy 10% off at the wellness spa).

A holistic aromatherapy spa, Bodyscape Wellness offers services such as massage, Ayurvedic therapy, traditional Chinese medicine and precision medicine. It is a truly beautiful environment to spend time in, with the interiors professionally designed by State of Kin, a masterly play of natural light and neutral tones that's both soothing and tranquil. 

We're big fans of their aromatherapy massage, which allows you to choose from a range of oils - you might try Bergamot and May Chang for energy and vitality, Turkish Rose for heart healing and nurturing, or White Flannel Flower for celebrating life. Try a massage for your face - the Lifting + Firming Facial with Kansa wand treatment uses a small Kansa wand (a unique Ayurvedic massage tool) to deliver a specialised facial massage treatment that detoxifies, revitalises, gently lifts and helps smooth out and reduce wrinkles.

Lakshmia Ayurveda

Run by fully qualified Ayurvedic practitioners, as well as providing safe, effective and authentic Ayurvedic products and therapies, Lakshmia Ayurveda teaches you how to create and maintain balance in both your mind and body, by providing consultations on your diet, lifestyle, and advice on immunity enhancing treatments and herbal supplements.

With that, this is one of the best spots for a massage in Perth that works with the full spectrum of body, mind and spirit. As well as oil massages, a dry powder massage, lemon bundle massage and Marma therapy are on the menu here. For something a little different, try their Shastika Shali Pinda Sveda – a deeply invigorating, 1.5 hour massage using small linen bags filled with a specially, prepared rice, that’s evenly massaged from the neck down. The final result improves the overall appearance of the skin, nourishes depleted muscles and improves overall energy.

A favourite of Fremantle locals and beyond, Djurra makes its home in a stunning, 100 year old heritage building - an ideal location to be spoilt and pampered. As well as destination for great hair (Djurra use the pure flower and plant essence range, AVEDA) or a pedicure/manicure, Djurra has a range of massages for you to try. Knead it out to balance your chakras, or try a Stress Fix massage, where oils of lavender and clary sage are combined with Swedish and deep tissue massage techniques to calm, address soreness, and rejuvenate. You also have the opportunity to choose your favourite AVEDA aroma for a personalised aromatherapy massage; go all out with a full AVEDA body wrap, if you’re looking for a beyond luxurious body treatment.

Sea Beauty

A hidden local gem with two locations in the Northern suburbs, owner-operated Sea Beauty is the perfect seaside escape - jump out of the ocean and onto the massage table, where you can continue channelling the calm and relaxation you found in the waves. They make all their own organic beauty products for body and face, that are all on display at their organic bespoke back bar ‘In The Raw’ - take some home to receive all the benefits of professional strength products crafted straight from Mother Earth and the ocean.

For one of the best massages in Perth, we recommend the Sea Beauty Body Wrap and Scrub with massage; the scrub is infused with coffee and sea kelp, which are used to stimulate, detoxify and gently exfoliate the skin, while the mineral rich wrap helps boost circulation and assist with challenging areas and relieve sluggishness from the skin. It's a nourishing massage that follows the lymphatic pathways to drain toxins from your body. You'll leave feeling thoroughly renewed.

Olive + July 

Having jumped over the river from Subi to South Perth, Olive + July do everything from body scrubs to mud wraps and personalised facials. But if you're looking for the perfect massage spot, make them your new go-to. They specialise in express massages (30 minutes), which are ideal as an add on to their facials or other services, or as a simple relaxing fix during your busy schedule. Their back massage is a beautiful calming experience to soothe both muscles and the mind. Their therapists use traditional Swedish massage movements to warm up and soften the muscle tissue whilst sweeping movements encourage lymphatic drainage and increase blood flow. 

Relax the mind and soul with an Indian Head massage, or settle in for the Hot Stone massage, where warm, smooth natural stones are used to press into tight and tense muscles, in combination with the therapists’ hands - the resulting lymphatic drainage helps remove toxins from the body.

But whether or not you’re booked into a room, you can still add a touch of the COMO allure into your day by booking a massage at their Urban Spa. There’s a range of options to try - if your feet are in need of some love try Reflexology, or if you’re working in the city why not slip out for an Indian Head Massage, that helps stress-induced tension in the head, neck and shoulders.
