My interest in massage therapy began during a fascinating and
life-changing year spent living in Thailand at the age of 18. Seeing it
as an integral part of family life within the Thai culture I developed
a love of body work which has led me to study a diverse range of
modalities. These include Chinese therapeutic massage, aromatherapy,
reiki, and the Bowen technique; with the focus of my work being
relaxation and stress management.
The last twelve years have seen me establishing massage programs within
hospitals, nursing homes and corporate work environments, working in
the spa on a cruise ship, as well as running my own private practice.
Eileen is available at our Armadale and Sandringham branches and offers:
Wellness massage, Remedial massage, Sports massage, Acupressure, Hot stone massage and Pre and Post-Natal massage.

Angela Anderson
Massage Therapist
Lymphatic
Drainage |
|
|
|
I become interested in massage while working as a social worker for 15
years. This interest developed as I witnessed the amazing effects
bodywork could have on the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of
a person’s life.
My practice style involves working in partnership with the person being
treated to assist them to identify the causes of their discomfort or
pain. In my experience this contributes toward their healing and can
help lead to a healthy state of status quo.
My technique can involve relaxation, deep tissue massage, assessment of
posture and dysfunctional patterns of use, or take home stretches and
self massage techniques, whatever the mind – body connection is
requiring at the time.
My experience & interests include working with employees in a busy
health setting, people with emotional issues, and women in sport along
with training and remedial massage to cyclists.
Angela is available at our Armadale branch and offers:
Wellness massage, Remedial massage, Sports massage, Lymphatic
drainage, Trigger point therapy, Hot stone massage and Pre and
Post-Natal massage.

I attained my Diploma of Remedial Massage after completing 2 years of study at the Australian College of Natural Medicine.
A passion for flower essences is what prompted me to study massage
as a means of administering the essences in a topical form rather than
orally. I enjoy the challenge that each client presents whether it's a
soft tissue injury or the easing of emotional or physical stress.

Robyn Mason
The decision to study Massage Therapy was an accidental journey, but
one which I am so glad I made. When embarking on my Certificate IV, I
found massage both fascinating and rewarding. After completing my
Certificate, I went straight onto studying my Diploma of Remedial
Massage.
Massage Therapy is such a powerful tool and it is so versatile -
it can be easily moulded to meet the needs of the individual. My
philosophy towards treatment is that it is a cooperation between the
client and the therapist. My treatments may incorporate a variety of
techniques such as: therapeutic massage, myofascial release, trigger
point therapy, lymphatic drainage, stretching and cupping.
