Appointments available with Jemma on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at Murray St Massage.
Hello, I'm Jemma.
I am passionate about guiding people towards a deeper, connected and holistic relationship with their bodies and believe that the therapeutic power of touch is a beautiful place to start.
With a background in Yoga teaching and a long-time Yoga practitioner, I see the invaluable effects of cultivating healthy alignment and awareness in our bodies for our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing, which informs and inspires my practice in Massage Therapy.
In a Remedial treatment session, I will listen to your needs and work with you to provide a tailored treatment: whether you are on the journey of recovering from injury; making massage a part of your regular self-care; or you are at the beginning of your relationship with massage therapy (welcome!) A Remedial treatment can include deep tissue work, trigger point therapy, mobilisation and stretching techniques, MET & Myofascial Cupping.
I also strongly believe in the restorative power of relaxation as a gateway to receiving the benefits of bodywork and nourishment for the nervous system. I offer Lomi Lomi Massage, a beautiful, healing, heart-based practice of Hawaiian Bodywork, which encompasses and nurtures the whole physical body, mind and spirit.
I love working in this beautiful community of nipaluna/Hobart and wish to acknowledge the muwinina people of nipaluna, and the palawa and pakana peoples of lutruwita, the traditional owners and custodians of the land I reside. I pay my respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander peoples and to their elders past, present and emerging.
I look forward to meeting you and working with you soon!
