About Mel
Mel has over 20 years worth of experience in massage. She initially studied and worked in New Zealand, where she discovered her passion for helping people learn about and address their pain and dysfunction.
Her training and experience now allows her to practise a variety of different forms of massage, including Swedish, Thai, sports, deep tissue, pregnancy and manual lymphatic drainage, plus many more. As well as her massage training, Mel is also a qualified Yoga teacher and has training in Systematic Kinesiology, CranioSacral therapies reflexology and dryneedling – all tools that she regularly incorporates into her treatment plans.
Mel loves how massage has such positive and profound effects on the body, mind and spirit. She enjoys discovering what posture and movement patterns have come to cause discomfort or pain in each individual and helping to find solutions to support a stronger, more comfortable experience for her patients.
Treatment Approach
Her main trainging is in NMT, NeuroMuscular Technique. This is a system that addresses the body holistically but treats specific areas of dysfuction. She can either work with a very gentle pressure, but when needed; a stronger, deeper approach can be applied
