Massage therapists — quick reminder 👋

If you’re giving bodywork every week,
you should probably be receiving it too.

Not as a treat.
As maintenance.

Because we work better when our own bodies are looked after.

My back used to be that area — constant pain, always cranky, forever reminding me it existed.
I started yoga in my 20s and honestly… the first two years I wanted to throw the mat in the bin.

But consistency (and a stubborn streak) changed everything.
Little routines. Regular movement. Showing up even when I wasn’t bendy or brave.

Fast forward and here I am doing shapes my old spine would’ve absolutely cringed at 😅

And here’s the thing — movement isn’t about turning yourself into a pretzel.
It’s about giving your body options.
Flexibility. Strength. Awareness.

So when you slip, fall, grab something mid-wobble, hang out the washing like a champion, or life just throws a curveball — your body knows how to respond.

Any movement is good movement.
Your future spine will thank you 🖤🧘‍♀️

A quick hand drawn sign ready for my door.
When these hands aren’t massaging, they’re usually creating.

Painting, playing with pottery, drawing ideas that won’t sit still (dog art), building little things just because I can.

Hands that heal also love to create.

If you’re curious where all the messy, creative bits live, my little art page is where they come to life ✨

remedial.massage , and I had fun with a glass fire cupping session…because our catch-ups always look a little spicy — talking muscles, fascia and flames 😂

✨ What is glass cupping?
An ancient technique with modern benefits. Instead of pushing into tissue like massage, cupping lifts the skin and fascia, creating space and improving circulation.

🔴 About those marks
They’re not bruises as such.
Suction draws blood and fluid to the surface, increasing oxygen delivery and helping move stagnant tissue. Capillaries respond quickly but regenerate fast.

⚠️ Why technique matters
The face has thinner skin and more delicate capillaries, making it easier to cause broken capillaries if cupping is done incorrectly.
Larger body areas (back, shoulders, glutes) have thicker tissue and tolerate cupping much better.

✨ Gentle techniques for the face if that’s your thing (I personally don’t do cupping on the face or neck)
✨ Stronger cupping for the body
✨ Trained hands = safer results

Ancient practice. Modern understanding. Skilled practitioners.

Therapist note: Don’t skip the SCM

The sternocleidomastoid (SCM) is a powerful neck muscle running from behind the ear to the clavicle and sternum. When it’s tight, it often drives symptoms far beyond the neck.

Why the SCM matters:
• Contributes to head position and cervical rotation
• Heavily involved in forward-head posture
• Frequently refers pain to the head, jaw and behind the eye
• Can influence breathing patterns and nervous system tone

Why you should treat it:
Releasing the SCM can reduce tension headaches, neck stiffness, jaw tightness and that “heavy head” feeling clients often describe — even when the shoulders feel fine.

How to work it (less is more):
• Gentle support or pin-and-release between thumb and finger.
• Slow, sustained pressure into the muscle belly
• Never deep, never rushed

Why it belongs in treatment:
SCM tension is common in desk workers, phone users and stress-dominant clients. Addressing it can significantly improve outcomes in neck, shoulder and headache-focused sessions and often makes treatments feel more complete and lasting.

✨ Gentle reminder:
SCM work is always done with consent, clear communication, and adjusted pressure — because this area is sensitive and deeply connected to the nervous system.

✨ Massage Therapists…what are your “thoughtful extras”?

I’ve been using these gentle warming stickers on my clients for some time now — they sit over those stubborn upper traps and give a slow, comforting heat for hours after treatment. Perfect for keeping shoulders dropped + reminding the nervous system to stay in “rest mode”.

It got me thinking…the tiny, thoughtful touches are often what make clients feel truly cared for (and yep — it’s one of the reasons they rebook! 🫶)

Whether it’s a hot tea or a biscuit after their session, a warming heat pack, or just a moment of stillness before they walk back into real life — those details matter.

What little extras do you do for your clients?
Here are some ideas I love (pick what feels like you):

🌿 Offer a herbal tea to sip in the waiting area or after the session
🌿 A warmed towel under the neck during supine work
🌿 Calming aromatherapy blend or options to choose a scent
🌿 Post-treatment hot packs or heat stickers for tight areas
🌿 A tiny take-home self care card (stretches, breathwork, hydration, etc.)

Tailor those small moments — your clients will remember how you made them feel long after the massage ends 💆‍♀️💛

Why massage?

I became a massage therapist because healing is something we all deserve access to.
My own journey taught me patience, strength and breath — now I offer that same support, one treatment at a time.

I love being physically active — playing basketball (knee reco pending), gardening, bush walking, riding, climbing, chasing my naughty dog and getting on the yoga mat. Massage became my way to rest, recover and reset… and it’s pretty special to now share that with so many amazing clients.

Chats or silence — totally up to you. 🤫

I naturally read the room. If you ask questions or start a yarn, I’ll hit you right back and happily have a chat. If you close your eyes and go inward, I’ll match that too.

I do start most treatments face up for this exact reason — it gives us a chance to connect, check in with what’s going on in your body, and decide if we’re talking or not talking today.

Once we flip, it’s usually the “rest + melt” phase.
I can’t see your face, so if you suddenly grunt, gasp, or make a dolphin noise when my elbow finds that spicy spot — I fully get the message 😂
Otherwise, that’s your moment to drift off with the fairies.

If you’re a zero chat person and just want pure bliss, please tell me before the session. I’m not offended — in fact, I love watching people fully switch off and sink into their body.

Shhh… it’s your time.
