Location and directions
Find where we are located!
After a couple of changes in the last few months, we are happy to announce we have moved into a new space in the heart of Somerfield/Barrington.
Why have we moved again?
Honestly, we get it! Change can feel disorientating but the goal was always to bring Muscle Maintenance into a calm and peaceful environment, and unfortunately things didn't work out that way at our previous location.
Come check out the new clinic room to see what the fuss is all about.
We are down a quiet, tranquil cul-de-sac minutes away from the Barrington mall and Barrington motorway exit. There's plenty of off-street parking and the clinic is sunny and welcoming.
We are wheelchair accessible and have a shower on site.
