ABOUT US
Hey there!
I’m Aleisha, the massage therapist behind Aurea Healing Therapies.
I'm a mum of 3, blessed and sometimes challenged with 2 daughter’s and son! These three keep me on my toes and are a big reason why I am so passionate about self-care for mums!
During my first pregnancy, I saw many therapists who said they could offer pregnancy massage. Although I felt relaxed, I never felt fully relieved of my pregnancy aches and pains! This led me to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of pregnancy massage, and it quickly turned into a huge passion of mine.
In 2017 when my daughter was just one year old, I completed a short weekend course in Pregnancy Massage. I absolutely loved it, but it wasn't enough!! As the universe would have it, I attended a business book launch later that year and a wonderful woman sat beside me. We got to talking and well, guess what?! She specialised in pregnancy massage! She introduced me to Pregnancy Massage Australia® and by September 2018 I was a qualified NurtureLife® Pregnancy & Postpartum Massage Practitioner!
In July of 2019, I fell pregnant with my son, and now equipped with the knowledge I gained from my education, was able to move through pregnancy much more comfortably. I worked throughout my entire pregnancy, still doing mobile massages at 37 weeks! By my 3rd pregnancy with regular massages, exercise, stretches and continuity of care of my midwives, I was able to work till 41+1.
I now absolutely LOVE helping women through their pregnancy and postpartum journeys as well, helping them ease into motherhood and allowing them a safe place where they can relax, vent, and snooze. I encourage you to bring your little ones along, they can lay in our swing or play on our soft play mat. Your newborn can even snuggle or feed on the table with you! I also often have my clients’ partners come to see me for a remedial massage: I am so thrilled to see the whole family get involved in self-care!
I currently work from my beautiful rainforest-themed home clinic! My goal is to eventually open a clinic space with other health modalities and professionals. A place where mums and dads can come for a little guilt-free self-care.
Thank you for joining me and I hope to see you soon!
