l STUDENT SPOTLIGHT - CHRISTIE l

“The greatest value I gained from this course was learning the power of slowing down, the difference in pressure, and how these techniques can support not just clients with cancer—but every client.”

In our OM1 Oncology Massage training, students discover how small adjustments in technique can make a meaningful impact. Slowing down, working with intention and safety, and truly connecting to the person in front of you is at the heart of this work.

If you’re a therapist looking to expand your skills and support clients with complex health needs safely and confidently, this is where it begins.

l KNOW YOURSELF, FEEL YOURSELF l

Awareness is more than a reminder — it’s an action.
October invites us all to pause and connect with our own health, to know ourselves and feel ourselves.

Breast Cancer Network Australia’s campaign is a powerful reminder that early detection starts with self-awareness.
Take a moment to check in — know what’s normal for you, and speak with your healthcare provider if something doesn’t feel right.

Breast cancer affects both women and men, and awareness is key to early diagnosis and better outcomes.

Learn more via Breast Cancer Network Australia’s Know Yourself, Feel Yourself campaign - https://www.bcna.org.au/know-yourself-feel-yourself/

Together, we can continue to raise awareness, support each other, and be proactive with early detection and compassionate care.

l BUILDING HEALTHY HABITS FOR A BALANCED LIFE l

Creating healthy habits isn’t about big changes overnight — it’s about small, consistent choices that support your wellbeing every day.

Whether it’s taking time for self care, focusing on your health, prioritising personal growth, nurturing your social connections, or boosting your productivity, every positive action adds up.

💚 Start where you are.
💚 Choose one area to focus on.
💚 Build momentum — one healthy habit at a time.

These everyday actions not only support physical health but also emotional balance and long-term resilience — especially important for those in caring, healing, or therapeutic professions.

What’s one habit you’re focusing on right now to bring more balance into your life? Share it below — you might inspire someone else to start today.

l AWARENESS IS FOR EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE MEN l

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month — and while most conversations focus on women, it’s important to remember that men can also be affected.

Although rare, male breast cancer accounts for less than 1% of all breast cancer cases, with approximately 20,000 new cases diagnosed worldwide each year. The lifetime risk for men developing breast cancer is around 0.1%, which is significantly lower than for women — but awareness can make all the difference.

Early detection remains key.
Knowing the signs — such as a lump, ni**le changes, or skin irregularities — and seeking medical advice promptly can lead to earlier diagnosis and improved outcomes.

At OMT Ltd, we stand with everyone affected by breast cancer — regardless of gender. Awareness, compassion, and education save lives.

Let’s continue to share knowledge, encourage check-ins, and support every person touched by this disease.

💚 Please share to help spread awareness.

l GRATITUDE FOR OUR VOLUNTEERS l

We’re continually humbled by the generosity of our volunteers — the people who give their time, trust, and feedback to help our students learn, grow, and refine their hands-on skills.

Here’s some beautiful feedback shared recently by Joanna after her session with student therapist Alex:

💚 “Alex was outstanding with his skill and therapy delivered today. My session was akin to an out of body experience. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone seeking a quality, relaxing massage. His method was excellent, and his hands were respectfully placed on my body. You have a gift, Alex, and should be very proud of yourself. Thank you so much!” 💚

Each volunteer plays a vital role in our students’ education. Our in person learning elevates and strengthens their e-learning, helping them translate theory into confident, compassionate practice.

From everyone at OMT Ltd, thank you for being an essential part of this training pathway. Your contribution helps us continue to shape safe, evidence-informed therapists who bring comfort and care to those who need it most 🙏
