Sigh Massage Therapy- Working with both physical and psychological factors behind pain. Understanding the client not just the condition!
Specialising in chronic pain patterns with a focus on the nervous system. Repatterning pain is more than just your muscles. Chronic pain trains our nervous system to operate on high alert. Identifying the links between physical pain patterns and how the nervous system is influencing both behaviour and the body, makes it possible to regulate the signals. This allows pain to be reprogrammed. Kylie is a Master Practitioner in Neuro-linguistic programming and has advanced studies in trauma. Working with the nervous system and the psychology behind chronic pain, means treating the cause, rather than only the symptom. Kylie has 20 years experience and is a member of Massage & Myotherapy Australia. Our services are eligible for most Private Health insurance rebates under extras or ancillary. For details check with your provider.

🌟MUST WATCH!!!🌟
I've shared a lot about chronic pain over the years, but nothing explains it quite like hearing from someone who’s lived it.
Di’s story is one of those moments that reminds you what this work is really about.
She shared her journey because we wanted others to know what’s possible when you stop chasing symptoms and start understanding what a nervous system focused treatment can really do.
Her words moved the room at my recent presentation...and I have no doubt they’ll move you too.

I faced my own fear today💪
It was one of those moments that will stay with me!
Standing on that stage, looking out at a room full of therapists who get it. Who feel the weight and privilege of working with people in pain, was honestly emotional.
I spoke about 'The Power of Appointment One", but what I really spoke about was connection.
About how the body tells its story long before words do.
How pain isn’t random, it’s protective.
How when we learn to see behaviour and pain as part of the same pattern, that’s when everything changes.
The quiet pauses where something lands and everyone just… gets it.
That’s why I do this work.
To everyone who came up afterwards to share your stories, thank you🥰 You reminded me how powerful it is when we show up for this kind of work with heart.
Here’s to helping more people out of chronic pain👏👏

Nailed it!! 💪
Now Master of Advanced Neuro Linguistic Programming certified!
Being honest, this isn't the smooth, fluffy, inspirational kind of training. It stretches you. A pull-you-apart kind of stretch.
It showed me exactly where I haven’t been facing my own patterns, blind spots, and the ways I still limit myself, even with all the tools I already use to help others transform.
I’m walking away with sharper tools, deeper clarity, and a nervous system that’s done the work. 🙌
This work is powerful.
Big love to everyone who’s in my corner 🥰
