Hi I’m Lesley. As a keen distance runner, I’ve experienced the benefits of remedial massage firsthand. From identifying and managing injuries to aiding in recovery, massage has helped me to feel strong, healthy and ready for my next challenge. It has even helped me to feel more in tune with my body enabling me to understand and respect when I need to ease up and rest to avoid injury.

After working as a chemical engineer for nearly 15 years, I took time off to raise my two children. Contemplating a return to work, I decided to shift direction and pursued a career in massage. I started studying in 2012 and obtained my Cert IV in Massage Therapy in 2014 and my Diploma of Remedial Massage in early 2017.

I’ve launched my business Balanced Massage Therapy with the aim of helping people achieve pain free living. With the use of soft tissue manipulation to release tight stubborn muscles, I want to assist clients in relieving acute pain and to minimise the effects of chronic pain. Ultimately I aim to work together with the client to determine mechanisms for eliminating their pain. I believe in the importance of empowering my clients to take their wellbeing into their own hands by helping them recognise what triggers their pain, what modifications can be made to their lifestyle to eliminate these triggers and aid in their recovery by embarking on a journey involving strengthening and stretching to make them more resilient to whatever life throws their way!
