Why it's worth checking out
The Sanctuary at Hove is a massage-focused spa in Brighton, Adelaide, offering a calm retreat from the pressures of everyday life, work and sports training. Its treatment range includes Relaxation Massage, Remedial Massage, Hot Stone Massage and Sports Massage, with therapists tailoring treatments to individual needs.
The venue’s rooms are inspired by South East Asia, creating a peaceful setting for appointments. Hot Stone Massage uses heated smooth stones to warm and relax the muscles, while Remedial Massage combines specialised massage and diagnostic techniques to address specific problems. Sports Massage is designed for sporting injuries and ailments, using a deeper and more vigorous approach.
The Sanctuary was founded by Melissa Lambert in November 2006. A remedial therapist with a Certificate IV in Massage Therapy, Melissa has more than 20 years’ experience running businesses in gyms and physiotherapy clinics in Adelaide and London. The clinic has since grown into a hub for massage therapists offering different treatment approaches, with a shared focus on helping clients relax and heal. It suits solo visitors seeking relaxation, people managing muscular aches or tension, and those looking for massage support related to sports or recovery. The venue currently advises that it has ceased selling gift vouchers while it prioritises appointments for holders of valid existing vouchers.
