Bodies change. Nervous systems change.

Why I use heat stickers in treatment 🔥

Sometimes it’s the small things that make a big difference.

Heat stickers are one of my favourite little add-ons for certain clients, especially when muscles need ongoing warmth after they leave the table.

✨ Why I use them
• Encourage muscles to stay relaxed post-treatment
• Increase local blood flow
• Help soothe tight, overworked areas
• Provide gentle, long-lasting warmth without bulky heat packs

They’re subtle, effective, and a lovely way to extend the benefits of your massage beyond the room.

⚠️ A little care is important
Heat stickers aren’t for everyone, which is why I’m selective about when and how they’re used.

• Not suitable for very sensitive skin
• Avoid on fragile, broken, or recently shaved skin
• Always remove at least 1 hour before showering
• If you feel excess heat, itching, or irritation — remove straight away

Your skin safety always comes first 🤍

As always, I check first and only use them when they’re appropriate for your body.

Small details. Thoughtful care. Long-lasting relief.

Hypermobility care through massage

Hypermobility isn’t about creating more movement.
It’s about supporting a body that works hard to stay stable.

Gentle, grounded massage helps calm the nervous system, reduce muscle fatigue, and create a sense of safety around the joints.

Less force.
More support.
Better outcomes.

Support beats force ✨

How good is Tassie. 🌊

Boat Harbour, Tasmania 🤍
White sand, turquoise water, salty air and space to breathe.

One of those places that instantly slows you down.
A perfect reminder to pause, exhale, AND RELAX 🌊✨

Note to my younger massage self…..

I started my massage journey with Q Academy in Brisbane in 2007.

I came from a basketball background and was recovering from an ankle reconstruction at the time. I wanted to understand my body better — how it moved, how it compensated, and how it healed. I chose a course that ran for a full year, four days a week, and it laid a strong foundation.

After graduating, I worked with athletes and later in physiotherapy clinics.
Along the way, I had all the questions many therapists quietly carry:
• Am I good enough?
• Do I know enough?
• What if I can’t answer every question a client asks?
• Am I charging appropriately?
• How do I do this work long term?

What I’ve done consistently is this:
I’ve shown up.
I’ve worked under many different practitioners.
I’ve kept learning, practicing, and refining.
I’ve leaned on other therapists.
And I’ve kept going.

This work is a long game. Confidence doesn’t arrive all at once — it grows through experience, repetition, and time in the room.

To newer therapists: keep going.
Ask questions. Learn from others. Trust the process.

It’s a genuinely rewarding career, and you’ll meet some incredible people along the way.

You’ve got this.

Sometimes when I’m working, I can get a little focused and my elbows can be… enthusiastic 😅
It’s never intentional — and it’s always adjustable.

Please know you are always welcome to speak up and let me know if anything feels too much.
A simple “can we ease off a touch?” is more than enough.

Your comfort matters.

Massage works best when your body feels safe — not braced, not holding its breath, not waiting for it to be over.

A massage doesn’t need to hurt to be effective.
In fact, overly firm pressure can:
• cause guarding instead of release
• irritate tissue
• leave unnecessary bruising
• slow recovery rather than support it

Gentle-to-firm, well-supported pressure allows:
• better circulation
• improved tissue response
• nervous system calming
• longer-lasting results

The goal is change — without your body needing to defend itself.

So please, speak up.
We want you comfortable. Always.

When the chat is flowing, the laughs are coming…
and I’m quietly reminding my arm to stay gentle while I talk with my whole body 😆

Relaxed nervous system ✔️
Good banter ✔️
Pain-free (mostly) ✔️

Sometimes the best treatments come with a good laugh.

Massage isn’t just mechanical.

Your nervous system plays a huge role in:
• pain
• tension
• recovery

When the system calms, the body follows.

Short sessions are great for single issues.
But when clients want full body + focus areas, time becomes part of the treatment.

The first 20–30 minutes is the body warming, assessing safety, letting go.
Real change happens after that.

90 minutes allows:
• Nervous system down-regulation
• Depth without guarding
• Better results, less rushing

Therapist reminder:
Recommending longer sessions isn’t upselling — it’s clinical reasoning.

Time is a modality.
Use it well ✨

(And yes… those are table hours.)

Turns out massage also includes cleaning, admin, planning, learning, running socials and pretending I’m not tired while doing it all again tomorrow.
