Michelle is an accredited remedial massage therapist and Samvahan practitioner who uses a combination of massage techniques, tailoring her treatments to each individual depending on their needs. Her empathetic approach aims to promote a healing response, a softening and opening of the body and flow of subtle energies. Whether it’s a stone treatment combined with Ayurvedic, remedial and Samvahan vibrational massage and acupressure, or a more functional deep tissue massage, her treatments offer a calming and grounding experience that can re-set the body and state of mind. A caring, intuitive and professional practitioner with a gift for holistic bodywork, Michelle creates a tranquil space for her treatments, allowing space for relaxation and healing. Michelle considers the Samvahan vibrational work (she studied with Michael Trembath) as the most profound balancing addition to her treatments, incorporating it into every treatment. The rhythmic gentle movement of stuck energy is fabulous support for traditional soft tissue release, and it can bring lasting shifts that allow healthy flow and harmonising of the physical, and subtle bodies. After attaining a degree in psychology and travelling the world extensively, Michelle established her business in Avalon in 2005 and has continued to further her studies in natural therapies to support her love of bodywork and helping clients. She has undertaken courses in aromatherapy, Ayurvedic aromatherapy, Reiki, swedish, remedial and deep tissue massage, hot and cold stone massage, Indian head massage, shirodhara, chinese acupressure, Samvahan vibrational massage and Ayurveda the science of healing.
