Hi, I'm Nardia... an enthusiastic + driven qualified Remedial Massage Therapist, with the passion + dedication to maintain + restore the health + well-being of others by relieving pain, tension + stress, while promoting relaxation through massage.
After spending 11 years in the Architectural world as a building designer, I felt it was time to take a completely different path. Following my interest in the human body, lead me to completing my Diploma of Remedial Massage at the Australian College of Fitness + Bodywork.
All my treatments begin with a physical assessment, followed by a treatment plan tailored to suit your condition + individual needs.
Techniques used include Deep Tissue/ Remedial Massage, Dry Needling, Trigger Point Therapy, Cupping, Pregnancy Massage, Myofascial Release, Manual Lymphatic Drainage + Sports Massage.
I have a special interest is Pregnancy Massage. Having two beautiful children of my own, I have first hand experience, understanding + appreciation for all the stresses our bodies + minds go through during each stage of pregnancy, labour, post pregnancy, breastfeeding + motherhood.
Massage helps to relieve symptoms naturally + safely, lowering anxiety + stress, while improving sleep + increasing levels of the feel-good hormones serotonin + dopamine.
Another area of interest is Manual Lymphatic Drainage, which uses a gentle massage technique that encourages the movement of lymph fluids around the body, helping to remove waste + toxins.
Its benefits include strengthening the immune system, reducing swelling, bruising + inflammation, fluid retention during pregnancy, fatigue, insomnia, stress, digestive problems + migraines.
I am also a Certified Infant Massage Teacher (CIMT), completing my studies at Liddle Kidz, founded by the amazing Tina Allen, who's training has been implemented by 100+ medical institutions worldwide.
Infant Massage is the perfect way to strengthen that special connection between you + your baby. Not only is it great for relaxation + settling, but it also helps alleviate symptoms of conditions that can cause bub pain + discomfort.
When I'm not working I spend my time hanging out with my amazing family + friends!
