I completed my Diploma of Remedial Massage Therapy (HLT52021) in 2022.

I completed my studies at South Metropolitan TAFE, with 200 supervised clinic hours.

I spent 18 months working for another clinic, before deciding to set up my own practice.

My journey to becoming a Remedial Massage Therapist

Prior to becoming a massage therapist, I worked in the hospitality industry. My interest in massage therapy began when a kind coworker who was also a massage therapist helped me alleviate a severe headache while on shift. The experience was incredible, and I realised how much tension had been building up in my body. I started getting regular sessions from her, even though it was sometimes difficult to afford on my hospitality income. However, I considered it a necessary expense because it significantly improved and maintained my overall quality of life. I found it fascinating, and it motivated me to become more in tune with my body.

After years of working in the hospitality industry, I concluded that it was not sustainable for me in the long run. I craved a career that would better align with my skills and bring greater fulfilment. With a growing awareness of the benefits of massage therapy and the industry's expansion, transitioning to this field was an easy choice.

After my massage therapist increased her prices, I found myself in a difficult position. Although her services were well worth the money, an increase well overdue, and was well in line with the industry's standards, I could no longer afford it. This made me realise that many others, like me, might be facing the same barrier. I wanted to help everyday people and make massage therapy more accessible to those who need it. This idea was the foundation for Conscious Care Massage Therapy. Considering the rising cost of living, I wanted to prioritise working-class individuals. Healthcare is a human right, and I wanted the preventative healthcare I provide to be as accessible as possible, and I knew I wanted to prioritise incentives and discounts for my clients.
