About me
My practice is located on the unceded lands of the Dharug people of the Aurang nation. I would like to acknowledge and pay my respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. I acknowledge and support our Traditional Owners’ continued fight for sovereignty, culture, and connection to country.
My cozy, community-focused service offers personalized acupuncture and massage services designed to nurture your health and well-being. I combine ancient techniques with a caring touch to provide effective, holistic care that addresses both body and mind. Whether you’re seeking pain relief, stress reduction, or simply a moment of relaxation, I’m here to support your journey toward balance and rejuvenation.

I offer a range of services at Glenbrook or Springwood, or housecalls by appointment.

A luxury 2.5-3 hour experience including:
welcome, remedial tea, foot reflexology, discussion of requirements; then over to massage bed for a back massage, neck to knee; then sea salt scrub for those hard-to-reach areas on the back/ shoulders/ back of arms. Time to shower, and if you like additional scrub under the warm water. An opportunity now to take 20 minutes for a slow, magnesium salt bath soak to further relax and rejuvenate tired muscles.
