NEW YORK CITY · NOW BYRON BAY
Emma
Originally from Australia, I spent 21 years living in New York City, where I trained at the Swedish Institute and worked as a massage therapist in both private practice and luxury five-star spas in Manhattan.
During my time in New York, I continued to study and add modalities I felt were the most impactful: Sculptural Face Lifting (intraoral buccal massage) and Facial Gua Sha, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Myofascial Release, Reflexology, Shiatsu, and Reiki. Lymphatic Treatments have been a popular recent addition.
We are complex beings, and shifts often require combinations of different skills to bring deep beneficial results..
Whether you’re seeking pain relief, deep relaxation, radiant skin or simply space to breathe, my intention is for you to leave feeling lighter, more connected and deeply restored. The goal is that you leave understanding your own body a little better than when you arrived.
My story
My work has evolved from my own healing journey. Every modality I offer is something I’ve experienced personally and felt inspired to explore more deeply.
I discovered massage at 18 while navigating the stress of university and quickly felt its ability to bring me back into my body. Years later, living in New York City, stress showed up as teeth grinding and chronic jaw tension, leading me to craniosacral therapy and its profound effects on the nervous system.
I was also fortunate to experience some incredible energy workers in New York, whose work opened me to the more subtle layers of healing and deeply informed the way I work today.
My own jaw tension led me to study buccal intraoral massage, exploring its ability to unlock the physical and emotional components of tension held in the face and jaw.
Today, my treatments bring together the modalities that have helped me most — supporting the physical body, nervous system and energy, while responding intuitively to what each person needs.
