What differentiates you from other massage therapists?
After 20 years in the industry, several diplomas (and other qualifications), 1000’s and 1000’s of hours of soft tissue work, I’d say my style is definitely a stand out. I’m lucky to have had amazing teachers and some awesome mentors in my time, that were able to teach me more than just techniques. My greatest satisfaction is providing long term relief for those who have tried almost everything.
What brought you to the profession?
It was through an injury I sustained whilst playing basketball. I had two options: deep tissue sports massage or surgery.
Who is my typical patient?
I don’t have a typical patient as they range from young adolescents to senior citizens. That said, I’m happy to work with anyone who has postural dysfunctions or short and long term injuries.
What is it that sustains you?
My daily practice of movement and self awareness. I also enjoy regular exercise and yoga on the weekends.
What is your ideal holiday destination?
Anywhere there’s a beach!
