As a Psychotherapist, I have a good understanding of how stress and trauma affects our bodies. If you have experienced ongoing stress, burnout or trauma such as sexual assault or domestic violence, my massage treatments can offer you a safe place where your body can relax and be treated with respect while you receive therapeutic massage sessions. I may use certain essential oils to assist you to relax, calm your mind and feel nurtured during your massage session.

Hawaian Massage
Hawaiian Massage for Women
Forearm massage techniques applied to the body have gained popularity over recent decades as Hawaiian Massage Practitioners began teaching this form of massage to westerners. The range of Hawaiian massage techniques offers clients a more comprehensive and therapeutic massage treatment. I use Hawaiian forearm massage techniques in my Remedial massage treatments.
Traditionally, Hawaiian massage was a tribal practice, often performed on the Kahuna (leader) of the tribe. It was traditionally a healing arts elaborate form of massage. Due to a decline in Hawaiian traditional cultural practices: Lomi Lomi (massage), Hula (story telling through dance), Oli (traditional chanting and storytelling) taught by Kahunas, Hawaiian practitioners began to teach these practices to westerners. All of the practices were modified to suit western practitioners.
I was taught Hawaiian massage and a range of Hawaiian cultural practices both in Hawaii and Australia.

I have taught massage workshops in both Sydney and the Blue Mountains. I established a private practice in the Blue mountains for women while working at a Health retreat and resorts.
