I hope you all had a lovely Easter! I spent a few days with my extended family up north and unfortunately sprained my ankle yesterday coming off a big slide at the Hunter Valley Gardens. I was looked after well and borrowed some crutches so I could finish our day in the gardens. I’m due to return back to massaging tomorrow but am going to take one day at a time. I’ll contact you if I need to reschedule. Thanks for understanding 🤍

Easter closure

I’m getting loads of inquiries for the days around Easter. I’ll be taking Good Friday and Easter Sunday off then I’m heading up north for a couple of nights with friends from Easter Monday to Wednesday 8th April.

This week leading up to Easter, I have a couple of spots available. I have one spot on Saturday 4th April at 3.45pm available.

I have gift e cards available, link in my bio if you want to gift yourself or give a hint for a wellness gift rather than sugar !

How long do you like your massage? I’ve had 2 two hour massage bookings this week and I love massaging for this long. I can really slow down and take my time on each limb, back and neck.

My mobiles are always a minimum 75 minutes. When you come to me it’s 60 minutes. I’m always up for longer if you ;)

Let me know in the comments how long you’d have of time restraints and money wasn’t an issue !

Do I offer extras?

If you’re talking about cupping, hot rocks, trigger point therapy, sound bath.. I do!

But yesterday, for the first time in twenty years, I was asked if I do sexual extras from a client who’s been to my home for massages several times with my children and partner in the house.

It is never ok to ask a health professional this question. Never. Not only am I angry I was asked this question, but I’m angry for the women I know who get asked this question often. I’ve had this conversation with a local Thai massage clinic and although they have signs throughout their clinic clearly stating they do not offer sexual services, they still get asked regularly. How is this ok?

I bring up this topic to open up conversation. It’s not something I want on my feed but I feel it needs talking about.

Would love to know how you feel about this topic. Other therapists, have you been asked this question?

Honoring my womb and this season in my life 🌺

I love receiving a delicious two hour womb massage healing from my beautiful friend .

It not only allows me to receive, it allows me to fully embrace the season I’m in, perimenopause. A season of slowing down, accepting my bleed is inconsistent and not wanting to tolerate bu****it any longer.

My intention when I receive this treatment is to honour my womb and surrender to this season.

I’m also always reminded how special it is to be held by another woman. Jayne sang, rocked, wrapped and massaged me and I felt like I was in very loving, healing hands.

Thank you Jayne. Highly recommend her circles and womb/fertility treatments. Jayne and I trained with the same people so I am loving having a ‘wombie’ here on the coast 🙏🏻

The Seeding Ritual 🩸

Sunday 29 March 1pm - 4pm
At my home in Lisarow

I would like to offer you the opportunity to rewrite your story of your first bleed.

Most of us have entered menstruation without the honoring, rite of passage and celebration we deserved. We were taught to hide and disconnect from our womb space. This disconnect from our body brought us further away from ourselves.

The Seeding Ritual is a returning. Return to Self. Together, we journey back to meet and honor our inner maiden. We listen. We heal.

This circle is wonderful to do prior to bringing your daughter to my First Moon Circle.

This ceremony was created by Gypsy from hunger and I am forever thankful to her for what she has taught me.

What to expect:

Cacao ceremony
Solo reflection and journaling
Paired shared and ritual
Share with group
Sound bowl healing
Food to snack on

Testimonials:

“Thank you Laura. This was a lovely way to tap into what has been buried and carried for nearly 35 years. To make the connection that it is still affecting the way I relate to the flow of life in the present moment, was eye-opening. Georgia”

“Thank you so much for yesterday, it really was beautiful and so powerful. I felt so safe, supported, seen and heard. Thank you for this offering!” Rachel

Closing of the bones ✨

Birth is a rites of passage. Whether you have a baby in your arms or not. If you have had a baby loss, this is still a birth. We deserve to honor this experience. Closing of the bones is one way of doing this.

What does a closing of the bones involve?

Everyone does it differently. This is how I do it. Full body massage (optional tummy and womb massage), gentle rocking and wrapping with rebozos (long Mexican shawls). May also include sound healing, use of palo santo, energy healing and music. This is for a total of 2 hours x
