Who do you treat at Nurture Her Massage Therapy?
My practice is dedicated exclusively to women. I’m a Diploma-qualified Remedial Massage Therapist with advanced certification in both Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage. While I have a strong clinical focus on supporting women during pregnancy and the first 12 months postpartum, I also specialise in treating women through all stages of life.
My treatments are tailored to address a range of musculoskeletal conditions and dysfunctions using evidence-based remedial techniques such as trigger point therapy, myofascial release, deep tissue massage, cupping, and muscle energy techniques. Whether you're experiencing postural tension, chronic pain, pregnancy-related discomfort, or the physical changes that come with menopause, I provide targeted, therapeutic care designed to support women’s health at every stage.
Why is it important to see a therapist who is specifically trained in Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage?
Pregnancy and the postnatal period involve significant physical and hormonal changes, and it’s important to be treated by a Therapist who is properly trained to work with these stages. As a Qualified Practitioner of Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage, I have a thorough understanding of the musculoskeletal, circulatory, and postural shifts that occur during and after pregnancy. My training ensures I can use safe and appropriate techniques, position you correctly for your stage of pregnancy or recovery, and adapt your treatment to suit your changing needs. This provides you with a safe, effective, and supportive massage experience tailored specifically to this time in your life.
Where are you located?
My studio is located in Trinity Park, in Far North Queensland, Australia. A suburb in the northern beaches of Cairns (postcode 4879).
Is there parking available?
Yes, there is a designated parking spot available in the driveway for clients. You’re welcome to park there during your appointment.
Can I purchase a gift voucher for someone and use my own health fund to claim the rebate?
No. Health funds require that the person receiving the treatment is also the policyholder or an eligible dependent. Additionally, health fund rebates can only be claimed when payment is made directly by the person attending the appointment. Gift voucher purchases and redemptions are not eligible for health fund rebates.
If someone buys me a gift voucher, can I use my health fund to claim the rebate when I redeem it?
No. Even if the gift voucher was purchased for you, private health funds do not allow claims for services paid with a gift voucher. To claim a rebate, you must pay directly for the treatment at the time of the appointment.
