About Melbourne Athletic Development
Melbourne Athletic Development started a tiny warehouse as a one man band in 2013, but the whole time we have always held ourselves to the idea that we exist to provide a service you cannot get elsewhere. Firstly and most importantly, we care. But more than this, we are in the constant pursuit of what we can do better, what we can explore to enhance your health and performance, and as long as we exist, that won’t change.
We want the absolute best for your health and performance and we seek out the most qualified staff to deliver a service that is not easily obtained. Don’t expect an easy ride, we want what is your best, and sometimes that is much further than you thought was possible.

We are understanding more and more about fascia. Yet many classifications for musculoskeletal pain and injuries rarely discuss it as a source of pain. This presentation explores what we know about fascia’s role in nociception, and how it helps to explain many pain conditions that are often considered ‘non-specific’.
