What are trigger points?

Trigger points are tight, sensitive spots in a muscle — often felt as “knots” — that can cause pain locally or refer pain to other areas of the body. They commonly develop from stress, poor posture, injury, or muscle overuse.

During massage, gentle, sustained pressure is applied to help these areas release, improve circulation, and reduce pain and tension. While the pressure can feel intense at times, it’s always worked within your comfort level and is followed by relief.

If you’ve ever felt pain in one area but couldn’t understand why it showed up somewhere else, trigger points may be the reason.

If your body could talk, what would it ask for?
Less tension? Better sleep? Relief from aches and pains?
Massage therapy can help support the body’s natural healing processes — and sometimes, it’s just about feeling human again 🫶

💛 Professional Massage Therapy – What It Really Means

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a little about professional massage therapy — and why it matters when choosing a therapist.

Recently, there have been important changes in Australia’s healthcare system to better distinguish qualified, professional massage therapists from unregulated massage services. These changes help GPs, allied health practitioners, and clients identify therapists who are clinically trained, safe, and professional.

Some massage therapists are degree-qualified (AQF Level 7). They have more university-level theory, research, and healthcare integration training, and can apply for an individual Healthcare Provider Identifier (HPI-I).

I hold a Diploma in Massage Therapy (AQF Level 5) and the Certified Practitioner® credential, and I’ve completed advanced training in dry needling, shockwave therapy, Graston techniques, and cupping.
This means I have practical, hands-on skills to safely and effectively treat pain, injuries, and support recovery.

✅ Both degree-qualified and diploma-qualified therapists provide safe, professional massage therapy.
✅ The main difference is degree-trained therapists focus more on academic theory, while I focus on specialised hands-on clinical care.

These changes in the Healthcare Identifiers system also mean that therapists like me are recognised in the Healthcare Provider Directory (HSP-O), helping with data collection, clinical referrals, and raising awareness of massage therapy in healthcare.
It shows that professional therapists follow strict standards, including continuing education, audits, and ethical practice — which protects clients and improves outcomes.

❗ Important: You cannot get a GP referral, Health Care Plan, or Medicare rebate for massage therapy with me. Sessions are directly accessible to clients, just as they always have been.

I’m proud to offer professional, clinically-backed massage therapy you can trust — with real hands-on expertise, advanced techniques, and recognised credentials.

💌 I’m sharing screenshots of my email from the Healthcare Identifiers review to show clients first-hand the changes in the system and how professional massage therapists are being recognised.
It’s not about boasting — it’s about transparency, helping you understand why qualifications matter, and showing that I keep up with industry standards to provide the safest, most effective care possible.

Travel Update ✈️

Hi everyone! Due to severe weather in Wales I missed my flight and won’t be home until 2pm on the 11th.

All massage appointments until the 15th are cancelled. I’ll contact you once I’m back to reschedule for the end of December if there’s space.

If you get a message, it’s my daughter helping me — please don’t reply to her. I’ll be in touch myself once I’m home.

Thanks so much for your understanding
🙏

Drivers looking to cross over the border are being faced with massive delays.

Loving the Christmas shopping vibes here in freezing Wales ❄️😂 Quite the change from 32° Aussie sunshine! I’ll soak up the cold while I can — then back to the warmth and back to work on the 12th December
(I’m the one in the hat… looking absolutely frozen! 😂)

✨ Why I Believe Everyone Should Be Using Red Light Therapy ✨

I’ve been using red light therapy for a while now, and the results have honestly amazed me. Some of you might remember my MRI scans from last year showing a torn ACL — I was told surgery was the only option.

But with daily red light therapy (and patience!), my knee completely healed over 6 months. No surgery needed. 🙌

The benefits go far beyond injury recovery — it helps reduce inflammation, improves circulation, supports tissue repair and overall wellbeing.

Here’s a 7-minute clip from Diary of a CEO with Gary Brecka explaining why red light therapy is so powerful for healing and recovery:

I truly recommend adding red light therapy to your massage sessions..

Fully Booked Until January ✨
I’m now completely booked before I head off on holiday, and once I return, I’m booked right through until the Christmas break.

My next available appointments will be from January onwards. If I don’t see you, Have a Fabulous Christmas 2025 🤶 🌲

Thank you all for your continued support — I truly appreciate every one of you! 💛
