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 & Postnatal 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 worked till 41+1 and returned to work just 14 days after I birthed.
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; we have an incredible childminder on-site and a play area/backyard. 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 studio! 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!
