Let me tell you about this......

Well, it is by far the most relaxing treatment I offer.

It all starts with a lovely warm couch with fleece blankets. Then we progress onto a facial cleanse, exfoliation and toner being applied....all with hot towels and using products.

Then progresses onto a face massage that is rejuvenating, stimulates facial lymphatics and relaxes areas of tension. I also spend an extraordinary about of time massaging the neck, shoulders, arms and hands.

Depending how long you have.....If you have scheduled for 1hr or more....we also fit in a fabulous face mask experience in.

And then to finish off, I apply Facial Oil from

I have never received so much positive feedback from these treatments.... I can integrate them into any treatment to ensure you get what you need out of a session. This is perfect for pampering, neck and tension headaches, TMJ and everyone!

This genuinely fills my heart with joy

A) I helped someone feel more comfortable
B) ScarWork is so powerful and effective, it blows my mind the positive impact it has
C) This client took the time to leave a review ..... People are just soooo busy nowadays, so to take the time to write this makes my heart sing.

I am so grateful to have the experience and knowledge to help people and be a small part of their journey back to health.

I also really love meeting and chatting to people. We can learn so much when we listen to others.

Two things I would have liked to learn sooner and feel a need to share this for some reason (maybe someone needs to see it today)....

(The irony of the first one makes me smile)

1/ Life will keep sending you the lesson until you've learnt it

2/ No such think as luck. It is all by design. Take the credit for your own decisions that you make

ScarWork

This is the evolution of recovery.

Pic 1. The first (top left) was taken 12mths on from a skin graft. The last (bottom right) taken today.

Determined to help this client with comfort, movement (rotation was restricted) and sensation, I set to work and saw him every 3 weeks for 6mths.

Do you see the colour, texture and thickness changes? It is no longer matted, raised or fiery pink/purple. His arm rotates without restriction.

Today was the official last sessions for the moment..... I'm sure it will continue to heal, but the initial objectives have been achieved - beyond what we expected AND in a relatively short period of time.

ScarWork continues to be my passion. I never underestimate the privilege it is to be a part of a healing journey.

Thank you to my lovely client for trusting me.

Gardening this weekend?

Plan ahead & look after your body (esp your back!)

Digging, Lifting, Bending.....all hip hinge movements can cause lower back pain / tightness.

It sounds crazy....but try limbering up before and warming down after your mammoth gardening session.... your muscles and skeletal system will thank you for it!

Most clients I see who garden, experience lower back stiffness when they wake-up, stand after sitting or during the night.... but it can be helped with some dynamic hip flexor stretches, glute activations and pacing yourself!

And / or.... plan ahead and book a Treatment now to recover!

Just a couple more apts available this week.

Have you satisfied all of your senses this week?

Interestingly the two lesser known senses are vestibular and proprioception and they are connected to the tactile sense (touch).

Vestibular sense involves movement and balance. It is the sense of where our body is in space. Close your eyes for a minute and take a quick inventory of your body. Even without seeing or touching, you know where your arms and legs are in space. Vestibular sense is important because it helps us stand, walk and sit up without falling over.

Proprioception is also called body awareness sense. This sense helps us understand where our body parts are in relation to each other. It also helps us figure out how much force to use in different activities (think of picking up a fragile glass versus a gallon of milk)

These two senses, are a focal point in any massage treatment - both consciously and subconsciously.

Keep all of your senses tickled!

Should you have a treatment when you are poorly/under the weather?

The simple answer is no

A treatment is full on and really can make a healthy body feel tired, so don't overwhelm your system by having a treatment when you aren't feeling well. You won't see any benefits you would normally get if you are unwell. Stay home and wait until you are better.

Also.... spare a little thought for the treatment itself and the close proximity we are in.

I don't want your germs..... and neither do my other clients, or my family.....

I will not work if I am unwell which is frustrating and disappointing if you booked in and have waited days/weeks for this appointment.

Please.be considerate. If you are not feeling great, please reschedule.

(I would prefer to give you a refund for 1 treatment than have a week off work!)

My latest addition to my treatments....

Crystals

This carefully curated collection sit on my windowsill and channel energies - the crystal that you are drawn to is usually the one you need most right now.

I have selected a wide range, because I have a broad set of wonderful humans who come into my incredibly precious workspace.

Some may think this is all Mumbo-Jumbo silliness.

However, just imagine how much better you could feel of there is just the slightest of chances these crystals, billions of years old, do have healing powers beyond what is explainable by closed minds we often find we have.

Introducing the fabulous 6 and their top qualities:

Dalmatian Jasper - Grounding & Stabilising- reduces worries, guilt, fear and insecurity

Howlite Quartz - Calming and Relaxing

Peach Moonstone - Calming and Soothing also brings luck and sparks creativity

Snowflake Obsidian - Protects and secures

Green Aventurine - washes away mental and emotional stress

Shiva Lingam - channels fertility, confidence and balance - guiding our physical and emotional body
