How are your ⚡️stress levels⚡️ feeling?

In today's post, let's talk about stress - specifically, the effects that stress can have on you, and how massage therapy can help 🙂

It's important to note that not all stress is bad. Short-term stress can be of benefit to the body by temporarily boosting the immune system and helping you overcome challenges. However, chronic stress can have a big impact on the immune system and ultimately compromise physical and mental functioning, leading to injury and illness ☹️

⚡️ The US CDC recognises that around 70-80% of doctors visits in the US can be attributed to stress-related issues.
⚡️ The Mental Health Foundation in the UK has reported links between stress and mental health challenges such as depression.
⚡️ Headspace, in conjunction with The National Union of Students in Australia revealed that over 80% of Aussie uni and TAFE students report detrimental health effects of ongoing stress.

Feeling stuck in a chronic stress state can colour a person's perceptions and experiences of everything. This is just one of the reasons why stress management and relaxation is important, and as your friendly, neighbourhood massage therapist, I will always recognise and validate your relaxation goals as being just as important as any rehabilitation goals 😀

So, I invite you to take a moment to check in with yourself and gently ask yourself... how are your stress levels ⭐️really⭐️ feeling? 🙏

✨National Carer's Week - 12-18 October 2025✨

I'd like to take a moment to shout-out to all the carers in our communities and families 🙏 Carers provide such essential support, and it can be physically and emotionally draining to do so.

Massage is one way to help support your emotional and physical wellbeing, but it's important to have access to a variety of self care acts to support your wellbeing. Your health and wellbeing is important!

Are you currently acting in a carer's capacity? Thank you for what you do. It's so important to remember to take care of yourself, too!

Our family enjoyed a great morning out at the Tamborine Mountain Tennis Club, cheering on the players as they hotly contested the men's singles championships.

Congratulations to all the players, you all put in a great effort and we really enjoyed watching your matches. I was there with muscle support ready and nobody needed it, which is fantastic, it means you're all taking care of yourselves! 😀

And for those of you heading into clinic this week for recovery massages, first of all, great choice of self care! And secondly, I'll see you soon! 😄

For the rest of us, I hope you all get to enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Today is World Mental Health Day.

This year is shining a spotlight on the importance of community and finding spaces where you feel supported, seen, and heard. I feel very fortunate to have been embraced by the communities on the Mountain and in Canungra, and this sense of community spirit is one of the things that inspires me both professionally and personally.

Your mental health matters just as much as your physical health. Not just because or because your - these sentiments, beyond mere hashtags, are indeed very true. However, your mental health matters, because you matter. And your investments in your mental wellbeing are worth it, because you are.

If you'd like to learn more, follow along with Mental Health Australia as they share more info and tips throughout the month of October. Wishing you safe and supported mental health 🙏

Today, 10 October 2025, is World Mental Health Day.
It’s a day to start conversations, reduce stigma, reach out for support — and connect with our communities.

This year’s theme, Connect with your community, highlights the importance of belonging to places where we feel safe, seen, and heard.

Connection today and every day, is a simple way to care for your own mental health, and the wellbeing of those around you.

Throughout October, Mental Health Australia is sharing tips and reminders in our free 2025 World Mental Health Day calendars to help you check in and connect with your community.
