This is 76!
What we do in our middle age has a huge impact on our lives as we age…
Keep moving, do the hills, do some weighs, yoga and eat lots of veggies. (My mum was the salad and herb queen before salads were a thing) And a positive outlook always helps too 🙂

Pic of my mum doing the river crossing at Cascades this morning.

3 lovely ladies treated today - all runners. I have one spot left this week on Thursday at 9, text to enquire.

Grateful 💙🇦🇺
So lovely to have my mum visiting and grateful to call Australia home - we had a lovely walk, coffee and a swim in the ocean pool this morning.

I’ll be working Tuesday- thursday this week (please let me know if you want a cancellation spot (Thursday at 9 or 12 is available )).

Currently taking bookings for March as I am closed the first two weeks of February

Happy Friday! This is how excited I am at my mom arriving for a 6 week visit on Sunday🙂 she hasn’t been to Australia in six years … (I did see her briefly on a visit to South Africa in 2023 and we do play Wordle every single day along with my aunt and my sister so we are keeping in touch but lovely to have her here in person:))

As a result, I’ll be working at about 50% capacity so that I can enjoy family time and my availability is therefore very limited to bookings that I have taken already for January and February and any cancellation spots that come up. Thank you so much for understanding. I will not be taking new clients over the next two months.

I’ll be back to full capacity in March. Please feel free to book your regular spot and book ahead if you have a special event. If you would like to book in in the next six weeks, let me know and I’ll let you know if a cancellation comes up. I will also be treating things a bit on an ad hoc basis so feel free to message the day before and depending on our plans for the day I might have capacity for the odd appointment.

My first week back at work this week has been lovely and very busy it’s been great to see my clients and get into the groove for 2026

I always like to have a healthy lunch, but especially when I have a full day like today with four clients booked in.
Plenty of protein and fibre to keep me going through the afternoon . The protein is lentils, edamame and eggs and theres salad and broccoli underneath. I’ve added some cottage cheese and drizzled lemon and olive oil on top.

The green goddess salad from Woolworths is such an easy base that’s the lentils 🙂

Monday 🧡
My heart goes out to all the communities in Victoria affected by the devastating bush fires. We spent the night in the beautiful little town of Rutherglen (on our way back from Melbourne). It is so dry and one can only hope and pray for rain.
I’d highly recommend The Victoria Hotel in Rutherglen.
I’ll be back in the studio tomorrow.

Take care in this heat, remember to stay hydrated (and please keep pets cool too).

I’ll an always offer you a hydrating glass of lemon water or herbal tea after your appointment but feel free to ask if you’re thirsty before your massage.

Fifth time I’ve done my first aid course ✅ which is a requirement for my insurance and accreditation by Association of Massage Therapists.
It was great to be joined by Jays (his first time) today as we had a few laughs and not sure I’m any good at making a sling.
However, on a more serious note, I think everyone should do the CPR part of this course and know how to save a life or at least give it your best go.

Remember, 000 is the number to call in an emergency and usually the paramedics can talk you through what needs to be done.

As 2025 draws to close, I want to take a moment to say thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Your trust, loyalty, and continued support mean so much to me and every session, conversation, and visit has made this year special, and I’m incredibly grateful for each of you.
Wishing you a healthy, happy, and peaceful New Year in 2026. May the year ahead bring you balance, relaxation, and plenty of moments to care for yourself. (getting out in nature is always a great form of self-care.)

I’m not a massive fan of a late New Year’s Eve so will be having a barbecue at home and an early night with my book 🙂! I’ll be keeping Diesel company as he is super scared of fireworks. Hopefully we don’t hear any in St Ives.

However you celebrate, have a good and safe time.

🧡🧡

Happy Christmas 💚🎄💚 That’s it for 2025 !

Thank you all for your continued support, it has been a year like no other with the reminder that our health is our number one priority.

Diesel has been a very good boy this year and has discontinued his chewing of the window frames and door frames while I’m working. He has done a bit of barking but not noticeably so:) he has promised to continue to be a good boy in 2026 as long as I continue to take him for walks every morning!

Wishing everyone all the very best over the festive season and health and happiness in 2026.

My wish for Christmas is for peace, kindness and humanity to prevail over all that is cruel in this world.

With love
Robyn 🎄💚

If the busyness of the season is just too much stop and breathe … deep breath in and slowly out. Remember to breathe out for twice as long as you breathe in.
