Consistent Care,
Real Results.
One session can feel great. But real, lasting change happens with consistent, purposeful treatment. We get to know your body, understand what’s driving your pain, and keep you moving at your best — long term.
Active Results.
You sit all day, then ask your body to perform — and that’s where niggles turn into injuries. Whether you’re at the gym, on the bike, or running, regular treatment keeps you moving well and ahead of injury.
Clinical Precision.
Every session starts with understanding your body — what’s driving your pain, how you’re moving, and what needs attention. No guesswork, no shortcuts, just purposeful treatment.
Restorative Recovery.
Relaxation isn’t a luxury — it’s a vital part of how your body heals. Our restorative therapies calm your nervous system, reduce tension, and give your body the dedicated recovery time it actually needs.

Massage Therapy
with Alex Cownie
Welcome to Tempo Clinic!
I'm Alex, a remedial massage therapist and founder of Tempo Recovery Clinic in Kingston, ACT.
My understanding of the body started on stage. A professional performance career as a ballerina across Europe and Australia taught me what it takes to train hard, perform under pressure and recover properly.
Today, I train for fun outdoor activities like kayaking and triathlons, so I know first-hand the demands you put on your body.
Every session starts with listening: what's going on, what your body needs to do, and what recovery looks like for you. Then I tailor the treatment, from targeted deep work on a stubborn injury to a slower session that brings your nervous system back to calm.
Athlete, desk worker or simply running on empty, my aim is the same: help you move better, feel better and get back to what you love.
Remedial - 60 min
Remedial
Massage Therapy
Targeted therapy for back pain, neck and shoulder tension, tight hips, and the kind of stiffness that builds up from training hard and sitting too long. We work into the specific muscles and structures causing you trouble — so you leave feeling genuinely better, not just relaxed.
Sports - 60 min
Sports
Massage Therapy
Whether you’re preparing for a big event or recovering from one, sports massage keeps your muscles supple, reduces injury risk, and gets you back to training faster. Your body will thank you.
Ideal complement to your physio and other injury and accident recovery treatments.
Reflexology - 60 min
Reflexology
Foot Massage
A deeply relaxing foot and lower leg massage rooted in the principle that specific points on the feet connect to organs and systems throughout the body.
It’s surprisingly powerful — and seriously good for switching off.
Helps improve sleep, digestion, and hormonal balance.
Swedish - 60 min
Relaxation
Swedish Massage
Long, flowing strokes that melt away tension and bring your nervous system back to earth. Perfect when you’re feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or overdue for some time to yourself — or if you simply want an hour where the only thing on the agenda is feeling good. Your mind and body will thank you.
Tui Na - Included In ALL Remedial massages
Tui Na
Chinese Massage
A traditional Chinese technique using acupressure and soft tissue manipulation to free up tight joints and improve circulation as well as help with most strong headaches.
Most often used as part of a remedial or sports massage rather than a standalone treatment.
It’s one incredible tool Alex draws on when your body calls for it.
Lymphatic Drainage - 90 Min
Lymphatic Drainage & Aromatherapy
Lymphatic drainage is a gentle, specialised treatment that works with your body’s own drainage system to reduce swelling and accelerate recovery.
It requires a longer session, uses custom aromatherapy oils, and needs to be booked on its own — combining it with deep tissue work would undo the benefits.

CLIENT SUCCESS STORIES
Real Recovery
You're a miracle worker, my hip is so much freer today. Thank you!
After weeks of pain, Alex did a great job to get my neck unstuck and moving properly again. I highly recommend her treatments.
Alex was excellent. She took the time to understand where my problem areas were and really helped loosen them, so I could get back to the gym.
