HealthTouch Massage Therapies

Most people believe that having a massage is one of the most enjoyable pleasures in life.

And for me, DOING therapeutic massage is one of MY enjoyable pleasures in life and I find it strange to refer to it as a “job” or “work”.​

How hard is it to work in a pleasing environment, with soothing music, the delectable aromas of essential oils, the chance to meet really lovely people and – most importantly – see and feel the positive difference they experience after their treatments?​

It can be the slightly dazed, just-woken-up demeanour … looking less tired and strained … looking 5–10 years younger (yes, that does happen when facial lines of tension are smoothed out and eyes are clearer and brighter!)  … improved posture … greater flexibility … and reduced pain.

It’s the best, knowing that my “work” helps my clients obviously feel and look a whole lot better than when they arrived.

I discovered my passion for practising therapeutic massage treatments through my interest and passion for aromatherapy (and that’s another story!).

I was hooked from the first moment I clumsily began massaging a fellow student and, more than 17 years later, I still love doing this “work” and totally believe in the many benefits of massage therapy.

So I bring my passion and intention to give you the best overall massage experience I can.

That might be helping to reduce a specific area of muscle tension, provide “time out”, promote deep relaxation, help you sleep better, manage some of the aches and pains of pregnancy or helping you maintain your health and wellbeing through regular massage treatments.

Through massage I can contribute to the support you need while going through a particularly stressful time, while undergoing cancer treatment, recovering from injury or managing a chronic medical condition.

Whatever your reason/s for having a massage or regular massages, my approach is wholistic and recognises your individuality.

The treatment plan and techniques I use to help relieve your aches and pains and/or to calm you, together with the essential oils I blend to energise you or help you de-stress, are not stock-standard but chosen and recommended especially for you.

I appreciate you’re more than your sore neck, lower back pain, stiff joints … anxiety … worries about ageing, stressful job … You are your own person whose CAUSES for your pain may be different from another’s, whose worries aren’t necessary the same as others’ and whose attitude to life’s stresses, your pregnancy or injury recovery and/or a medical condition you might be managing can be different again.

Plus, I’ve personally experienced the awful stress of working in a variety of demanding corporate jobs for many years, the deep sadness from losing people I’ve loved, my father’s decline with dementia, other close family members who’ve dealt with serious injury recovery – to name a few of life’s challenges and curve balls so many of us face.

If you want to tell me YOUR story, I’d love to hear it.

Otherwise very happy for you to just sink into your “you time” and allow me to use my skills and experience to facilitate a positive outcome for you.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Massage experience

Have aways had private clinic clients.

For more than 7 years, sub-contracted massage services to natural health and beauty spas, natural therapies clinics and within a fitness centre. This period gave me experience massaging a lot of stressed out high level corporate executives, a lot of pregnant women and people wanting to maintain flexibility for their sport and fitness regimes.​

For 5 years, sub-contracted to an innovative neuro physio and rehab centre. Gained valuable experience massaging many people who were managing conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Motor Neurone Disease and other less known neurological diseases; people recovering from stroke; people undergoing cancer treatment or post-cancer recovery; people rehabilitiating after serious injuries, including brain injury.​

Provided massage services (for reduced fees) at 2 of Polio Australia’s Annual Health and Wellness Retreats when they were held in Sydney.​

Concurrently with the experiences above, for 4 years gave voluntary massage treatments once a month within a Hands on Health Clinic managed by the Wayside Chapel in Potts Point until, sadly, it closed. Wonderful experience meeting and massaging a wide range of clients, including people who were homeless, drug- or alcohol-dependent, HIV+, suffering depression, anxiety and other mental health conditions.​

Also concurrently, for a 3-year period, taught aromatherapy and massage courses part time at TAFE schools.  And loved teaching my passion!

Reviews

“Carole is a life saver! Carole took the time to learn about me and exactly what I needed. I’m a single parent, running my own business and studying a Degree. Carole created for me my very own oil essence to revitalise me; and my very own cream essence to relax me. Carole instructed me to use the esssences on different pulse points and areas like the nape of my neck and small of back, or legs. Wow! Carole knows her stuff. I now rely on Carole’s concoctions to keep me reinvigorated when I need – or calm me down for a great night’s rest. Very highly recommend Carole <3”

“Carole is a life saver! I can vouch that her body massage and facial are devine! In fact I fell asleep a few times.

But I was also intrigued with her handcrafted essences. Carole took the time to learn about me and exactly what I needed. I’m a single parent, running my own business and studying a Degree.

Looking forward to my next facial and massage! :-)”
