Hi, my name is Kimberley
and I trained at Q Academy in Brisbane
in 2009 where I received a Diploma of Remedial Massage. After graduating I
undertook further studies in Cupping, Myofascial Cupping, Neuromuscular
Therapy, and Hot Stones Therapy. 
Immediately upon graduating I started working in the Brisbane CBD but
found I’d rather work close to home and spend more time with clients than
commuting, which in turn brought me to Northside Therapies!

 

Obviously, I didn’t just start where I am today but my
journey began many years ago while I was living in the USA. I began by
getting my undergraduate degree in Dental Hygiene and happily practiced for
many years but found that there was something missing…I just didn’t know what
it was yet. Over time, days spent bent over at awkward angles caused quite a
number of back problems, headaches, and the like and I found that massage
helped me a great deal. I began to be interested in massage when I found I
could help my own patients manage their headaches and jaw pain with it after
taking a course in head and neck massage designed for those of us in dentistry.

 

Personally, I have dealt with headaches and back pain
most of my life and so I can relate with what my clients are experiencing each
and every day. I believe that this makes me a better therapist; certainly it
makes me an understanding one.

 

I have quite a few “tools” I use to help my clients
with whatever problems they are having and feel confident that I can help you,
too. I usually start by assessing each new client quickly to determine the best
course of action, then go on to massage either the entire body (for general
relaxation) or work on a specific area to address the worst issues.

 

In the times we live in, stress makes a HUGE impact on
all of our lives. Stress kills our peace of mind, our health, and our
relationships. Massage can help relieve stress, reduce blood pressure, relieve
headaches, improve muscles tone, get rid of soreness, remove toxins from the
body, and give us a much better outlook on life.

 

I look forward to seeing you as my client!
