I definitely feel blessed to have the best career and clients in the world! I’m passionate about what I can do to help others and learning more to sharpen my skills in order to try and help people stay out of pain and engaged in life for as long and as much as possible.
In 2012 I completed my Diploma of Remedial Massage, Diploma of Aromatherapy and Cert IVs in Massage, Aromatherapy and Book Keeping (who needs a life right?).
In May of 2012 I began with Denese Mentor Remedial Massage and I was with Denese until the beginning of 2018 (best boss ever!).
At the beginning of 2018 I moved to my current location in Middle Ridge, where I currently work from the front room of my house. I have quite a diverse range of clients and focus my specialisation on injury management and chronic pain.
Since my graduation in 2012, I have completed a minimum of 20 hours professional development every year, usually studying various workshops. Though some years I go nuts and spend closer to 70-100 hours studying. I try to stay well informed of new research and changes in practices.
In 2018 I completed my advanced certification for Dry Needling, spending over 80 hours with CPD Health Courses. In 2019 I completed the Master Class level of Dry Needling Training.
I completed a Diploma of Musculoskeletal Therapy through the Academy of Integrated Therapies in 2019.
I began studying a Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science (Honours) (Clinical Exercise Physiology) part time at UniSQ in 2021, and will complete that in 2027. I am hoping to potentially combine my skills as a Remedial Massage Therapist with Clinical Exercise Physiology, and potentially move into a specialty, such as Chronic Pain. I’ll see when I get there. A few years left yet 🙂
In 2023 I am pleased to introduce Electrical Therapy into my suit of treatment options, utilising Microcurrent Therapy and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in my clinic.
In my personal life, I am the proud mother of a beautiful teenage daughter and I participate in Competitive Powerlifting (notice I said participate there… haha).
