MIND-BODY CONNECTION
My philosophy has always been, what emotions we don’t allow ourselves to fully feel, release and heal from, must be stored somewhere.
CASE STUDY
When speaking to a client…
…who had severe pain in her wrist and arm and could no longer straighten it the full way. I asked her to put all of her focus and attention to that area. I then asked her, if there were an emotion sitting there, what would it be? She burst into tears. She replied “there is something that happened to me when I was alot younger that I’ve always had trouble letting go of”
Ironically her arm, bent in an L shape, looked like she was holding onto something.
Immediately after sharing her story and expressing her emotions, her pain dropped significantly.
When we push down our emotions, they have to be stored somewhere. Our body.
Why am I experiencing pain?
There can be many contributions to our pain. Some pain is acute, meaning, we have only had it for less than 12 weeks. Often caused by injuries. And often it’s only a matter of time, and our body is in the process of healing itself. We can just help speed up that process by resting, icing, etc.
Then, there is chronic pain. This is more common, and is when we have been experiencing the pain for longer than 12 weeks. Often there’s a reason our body isn’t allowing ourselves to fully heal from it. There are often changes we need to make in our lifestyle and most likely emotional blockages that need releasing.
We haven’t allowed ourselves to fully feel and release emotions from the past.

Kelsey
REMEDIAL MASSAGE THERAPIST + CUPPING
-
My massage journey began in 2019 where I underwent a course in the United Kingdom for Relaxation Massage. Once qualified I opened up a small business within my home and continued to study - I developed a deep interest in Sport Massage and began to study alongside working with amazing local athletes to help them maintain performance abilities, support injury recovery and mobility.
Throughout the years I have spent time furthering my study in Australia and have settled into a personal style that is led with empathy and understanding for my clients. The experience I’ve gained through working with athletes gives me a keen insight into pain management, general body maintenance for every-day life and can work with clients to target specific restrictions.
My goal is to create a space that facilitates mind-body connection, healing and deep relaxation while working within a treatment influenced by your current aches, pains and overarching goals. I highly value all feedback from my clients and will often touch base through treatment to ensure we are working within your personal limits and comfort.
Outside of work, I am mostly a creative home-body, a lot of my time is spent creating art, reading and gardening (in-home and outside), I will also often find myself down the beach enjoying snorkeling and diving along our beautiful coastline. I have also reignited my passion for martial arts, and enjoy the mental and physical challenge that it demands to train so intensely.
It is important that my body experiences movement through things that my mind enjoys.
