✨ Mindful maintenance is what we’re all about. Your session doesn’t end when you walk out the door—my goal is to give you tools, tips, and techniques you can carry into everyday life. Because real change happens when your body feels supported beyond the massage table.
What does mindful maintenance look like?
🌿 Daily movement to keep muscles happy
🌿 Stretches to ease tension before it builds
🌿 Magnesium and self-massage for recovery
🌿 Listening to your body’s signals instead of pushing through
It’s these little things that add up to lasting balance. Ready to make mindful self-care part of your lifestyle? Book your session today. 🌱

✨ That tummy rumble? We love to hear it! 😌
It means your body has switched from fight or flight (stress mode) to rest & digest (healing mode). 🌿
In this state:
✅ Your heart rate slows
✅ Your muscles relax
✅ Digestion restarts (hello tummy growls!)
✅ Your body focuses on repair and recovery
💆♀️ Massage helps guide you into this state so healing can unfold naturally.
👉 Have you ever had your tummy growl mid-massage? 👀

I made the Perimenopause vs. the Massage Room video last week for a laugh… but really, we need to talk about this! For too long, perimenopause has been whispered about like it’s a secret. No one warns us, no one explains what’s coming… and then suddenly, our bodies feel like they’re betraying us.
I just listened to a jaw-dropping podcast full of info every woman should know. Listen, share, and comment below — what surprised you, or how does this stage make you feel? Let’s break the silence and support each other. 💛

Okay, I ran out of room on the post because this beautiful testimonial was just that full of love and kind words 🥹 so here’s the the whole thing, because it deserves to be shared in full:
First class, five-star service! I am forever grateful to have discovered the magic hands of Monica! For years I have lived with chronic widespread pain, especially affecting my neck and upper back. Monica's extensive knowledge and expert application of remedial massage and cupping is the ONLY relief I have ever had in the past 15 years of trying everything to relieve my chronic pain. I trust Monica implicitly and always leave feeling refreshed, lighter and uplifted. I cannot recommend Need to be Kneaded highly enough!
Monica is not only an expert in her field, but she is also a caring and compassionate human being, with a warm heart and contagious positive energy - I always leave feeling like my spirit has been recharged. Thank you, universe, and thank you Monica! You are truly worth your weight in GOLD!!
💜 I am forever grateful to hold space for people like this 💜🙏

Discover the magic of hot stones 🔥
There’s something powerful about warmth that sinks deep into your muscles—it softens the tension, quiets the nervous system, and invites your body to let go.
As a remedial massage therapist, I use hot stones not just for comfort, but because they transform the treatment. That deep, stubborn tension? It starts to melt away, making space for real, lasting relief.
It’s not just relaxing—it’s restorative. And your body will thank you for it. 💛
Want to feel it for yourself? Just tick the “Hot Stone Upgrade” when you book your next appointment—it’s that simple.

🌿 What’s your body telling you today?
It’s always listening—feeling the impact of your thoughts, your pace, your energy. Be gentle. Speak kindly. Move with care. Your body does so much for you—let’s return the favour. 💚

Puppy life is in full swing behind the scenes! 🐶
They’re growing fast, full of beans, and definitely keeping me on my toes. You might hear the odd bark or bit of rustling during your appointment, and I just want to say a big thank you for your patience and understanding.
I do my best to keep the space as calm and peaceful as always, and I hope the little ones haven’t caused too much of a distraction. Appreciate you all so much!

A heartfelt farewell to Lisa 💛
After sharing her warmth, skill, and care with so many of you, Lisa will be finishing up at Need to Be Kneaded on Thursday, June 27th.
If you’ve had the pleasure of being treated by Lisa, you’ll know just how amazing and calming her presence is. She’s helped so many of you feel better in your bodies—and her magic touch will be deeply missed.
There are still a couple of appointments left before she goes, so if you'd like one more session with her, now's the time.
Thank you, Lisa, for everything you've brought to our space. We’re wishing you all the love and success in your next chapter 💫

From birth until old age, everyone needs to be kneaded
Our goal is to deliver the massage work your body needs and the massage experience you are looking for. We want our clients to feel comfortable while we help them prevent or recover from pain or injury while feeling nurtured and relaxed.
Need to be Kneaded is a fully recognised provider, excluding Medibank Private, AHM and HCF.
In order to provide our clients with the best possible care, Need to be Kneaded operates on an appointment-based system. No-shows, late-comers and late cancellations impact greatly on our ability to provide a high-quality service, by taking away an available spot for others, or by interrupting the smooth running of the clinic. If you need to cancel or reschedule, please either text, call or update your booking online.
Please provide us with at least 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule your appointment. Where possible, we will try to reschedule you to the next earliest convenient appointment. Cancellation on the day of your appointment may result in a cancellation fee of 50% of the appointment fee above.
If you are running late, please give us as much notice as possible. We will attempt to accommodate you, however, if there is a client booked immediately after you, your appointment may understandably be cut short.
If you do not show up for your appointment and do not contact us to cancel or reschedule, you will be charged 100% No Show fee.
Thanking you in advance for your understanding and accommodation of the above.
