The Breast Wellness Studio

🌸 A LITTLE BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE BREAST WELLNESS STUDIO 🌸

This is me doing something I’m incredibly passionate about — helping women become more informed and proactive about their breast health. 💗

At the Breast Wellness Studio, thermal breast imaging is just one part of what I do.

Using a specialised thermal camera, we capture temperature and vascular patterns across the breasts and surrounding areas. The process is non-invasive, radiation-free, contact-free and involves no breast compression.

But I don’t believe breast health should ever be looked at in isolation.

My approach brings together my work as a naturopath, lymphatic practitioner and breast wellness practitioner to consider the whole woman — including lymphatic health, hormones, nutrition, inflammation, lifestyle, breast changes and individual health history.

I also work with women who need additional support with:

🌿 Breast and lymphatic massage
🌿 Breast tenderness, heaviness and congestion
🌿 Lymphatic health and education
🌿 Naturopathic breast wellness
🌿 Preparing for and recovering from breast surgery
🌿 Scar and mastectomy care
🌿 Support during and after breast cancer treatment
🌿 Learning how to know and care for their breasts

For me, the greatest benefit is knowledge.

Knowing your normal. Understanding your body. Recognising when something has changed. And knowing when it is time to seek further medical investigation.

Breast wellness isn’t about fear. It’s about awareness, education and taking care of yourself through every stage of life.

LET’S TALK BREAST HEALTH…

When was the last time you really paid attention to how your breasts feel?

Not just checking for a lump — but noticing the little changes.

🌿 Tenderness
🌿 Heaviness or fullness
🌿 Swelling around the breast or underarm
🌿 Changes after surgery or radiation
🌿 Tightness through the chest
🌿 Scar sensitivity
🌿 Fluid retention
🌿 Changes in shape, skin or sensation
🌿 Or simply feeling like something is “different”

Breast wellness is about so much more than waiting until something is wrong.

At the Breast Wellness Studio, I want women to feel comfortable talking about their breasts, understanding their bodies and asking questions they may not always know who to ask.

So today, I’d love to hear from you:

What is ONE thing you wish women were taught earlier about breast health?

It might be something you learned through your own experience, something nobody ever explained properly, or something you think every woman should know.

Pop it in the comments below. 💕 or message me.
Your answer might be exactly what another woman needs to hear today.

And remember — breast awareness isn’t about fear.

It’s about knowing your normal, noticing change, and feeling confident enough to speak up.

🌸 It’s the 1st of the Month – Time for Your Breast Check! 🌸

The best person to notice a change in your breasts is you.

Take just a few minutes today to get to know what feels normal for your body. Check for any new lumps, swelling, skin changes, ni**le changes, or anything that simply doesn’t feel right.

Remember, not every breast cancer starts as a lump. Knowing your own body means you’re more likely to notice subtle changes early.

💗 Check.
💗 Feel.
💗 Know your normal.

Your health is worth a few minutes each month.

🌸 My Skincare Routine

Everyone’s skin is different, but this routine has helped me.

💜 Morning – StrataXRT
This was recommended by my radiation team to be applied twice a day. I personally chose to use it each morning. It needs to be applied at least 2 hours before treatment, and I found it created a protective silicone layer over my skin.

🤍 During the day – MooGoo Natural Fast Hydrating Lotion
As the day went on, my skin became drier and tighter. MooGoo absorbed beautifully without leaving my skin feeling greasy, so it was easy to reapply throughout the day whenever I needed extra hydration.

🌿 Chelsey Jean Facebiotics
Chelsey Jean Lymphatics
Although it’s marketed as a face product, I found it incredibly soothing on my treated breast. The cooling peppermint gave a refreshing sensation, especially when my skin felt warm, and I even found the peppermint aroma helped settle my nausea. It became one of those unexpected little comforts during treatment.

💙 Night – Aquaphor Healing Ointment
Before bed I applied a generous layer of Aquaphor. Because it’s much thicker, it helped lock in moisture overnight and was wonderfully soothing when my skin became warmer and more sensitive.

Remember your skin reaction doesn’t necessarily stop when radiation finishes. In fact, the redness, warmth and irritation can continue to develop and often peak around 1–2 weeks after your final treatment. That’s because radiation is still affecting the skin and the underlying tissues as your body begins the repair process.

Radiation doesn’t only affect the surface of the skin. It can also temporarily affect the connective tissue (fascia), tiny blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, which is why many people experience: Warmth
Redness
Tightness
Swelling
Tenderness
Reduced flexibility through the breast and chest wall

For me, continuing my skincare routine even after treatment finished has become just as important as what I did during treatment.

💪 THURSDAY = UPPER BODY STRENGTH 💪

Strong doesn’t have to mean extreme.
Building upper body strength helps support posture, mobility, balance, circulation, and everyday function — from lifting groceries to supporting healthy ageing. 🌿

Today’s 5-4-3-2-1 workout focuses on:
✨ Arms
✨ Chest
✨ Shoulders
✨ Core stability

Push-ups, tricep dips, shoulder taps, and arm movements all help activate muscles while also encouraging healthy blood and lymphatic flow.

And let’s be honest… those arm circles start feeling serious after about 12 seconds 😅💚

Remember:
✔ Start where you are
✔ Modify when needed
✔ Rest when needed
✔ Progress takes consistency, not perfection

Movement is one of the greatest gifts we can give the body — especially when we combine it with good nutrition, hydration, sleep, and nervous system support.

You’re stronger than you think.
