Meagan graduated from the South Australian college of Natural Medicine in 2012 with a diploma in remedial massage and a strong interest in natural health and wellbeing. Meagan utilises an intuitive approach when assisting with the healing of muscular aches and pains by using trigger point massage, deep tissue, Lomi, Lomi, cupping therapy, hot rocks and remedial style strokes. Each treatment is carefully tailored to the individual’s needs which are established in the initial consultation and based on the clients constitution and current imbalances. 

​

Using a wide range of massage techniques, Meagan promotes the flow of blood and lymph, particularly to injured, over worked and stressed areas in the body. 

​

The pressure applied in Meagan’s treatments can either be strong and deep or gentle and shallow, depending on the problem. Problems with the muscles can trigger or radiate pain to other parts of the body. Remedial massage aims to trace the original reason for the pain, tackling both the cause of the problem and the symptoms.

 

Meagan has a calming and open nature which helps clients feel comfortable and relaxed in the space and allows them to drop into a deeply relaxing state.

Benefits of massage and body work:

​

• Decreases the stress hormone cortisol

• Certain massage techniques can increase the metabolism of nutrients and antioxidants through the release of enzymes. When metabolising faster the body is more able to flush out toxins, allowing for digestion to work at its maximum potential. (These reactions also help reduce cramping, gas, bloating and constipation and other digestive disorders.

• Increases oxytocin (feelings of contentment), and the number of lymphocytes, which are the cells that help the immune system fight off harmful substances in the body.

• Increases serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain, which are responsible for regulating mood

• Improves sleep cycle by increasing serotonin levels, relieving chronic pains and decreasing stress that keeps you from sleeping, ultimately allowing you to achieve a better night’s sleep.

• Reduces cytokines, which play a critical role in inflammation, and stimulates mitochondria, essential for cell function and repair. 

• Decreases joint inflammation by releasing the muscles around the joint and allowing increased bloody flow to the inflamed area.

• Strengthens the immune system

• Improves posture, relaxes tension, and improves tissue health

• Improves circulation by increasing blood flow and oxygen to cells

• Cleanses tissues of metabolic waste + improves return of lymphatic fluids

• Separation + prevention of adhesions + excess scar tissue formation

• Increases flexibility and range of motion in joints

• Improves rehabilitation after injury

• Helps manage pain
