Have a wonderful long weekend folks! ✨

Spending hours at a desk might feel harmless, but over time, poor posture, repetitive movements and long periods of sitting can lead to stiffness, tension and repetitive strain injuries.

The good news?

A few simple stretches and targeted exercises throughout the day can help relieve aches, improve mobility and keep your body feeling more comfortable and supported at work.

In my May newsletter to clients, I outlined a 3 x Step Guide, complete with Moves that are ‘Antidotes to Sitting’, some Desk Friendly Stretches and a routine for Micro Breaks.

To incorporate these into your week at the desk, you can check out my guide over on the blog: https://www.crmmassage.com.au/blog

The placebo effect is one of the most fascinating examples of the mind-body connection — proving that sometimes, belief alone can create real physical changes in the body.

From fake surgeries producing real results, to patients improving simply because they thought they were being treated!
Over on my blog, I’ve included 12 x mind-blowing Placebo Facts that might completely change the way you think about health and healing. Read them by clicking the link below:

We did it!

What surprised me most about my first half marathon is how busy it was and how many supporters were lining the road.

It was quite overwhelming to begin with, but the energy of the day really helped, not only as a distraction but as a real motivator.

I think both Heidi and I found the whole race very challenging. From the 12km mark we really had to motivate each other, our legs became very heavy, and it felt like they may cramp at any moment, so we took the decision at about the 16km mark to walk the hills. This had not been our original plan, we had hoped to run most of it, but we decided that we had to be strategic if we wanted to finish.

But the final 3km were really the most challenging, and Heidi was fantastic in keeping the talk positive and helping to push us to the finish line.

The “No pain, no gain” ethos doesn’t belong on the massage table.
Effective remedial massage is about working with your nervous system — not against it.
When your body feels safe, it lets go.
And that’s where the real gains happen 💫

Two weeks out from race day and feeling good 💪
18km done on Sunday morning ✔️ (and yes… milkshakes were absolutely part of the recovery plan 🥤)
Training alongside my daughter has been equal parts rewarding, challenging, and a great reminder that recovery matters just as much as the run!
If you’re building towards an event, don’t forget to look after your body along the way—your future self will thank you.
Booking a remedial massage before and after an event is a great strategy, as each have their own benefits 💫

I have been practising Lymphatic drainage for the past 8 years, especially with elderly clients who have Oedema in their lower extremities, in particular feet and ankles.

However it’s much more common for me lately to be helping people post-surgery with lymphedema (build-up of lymph fluid), and more recently I have treated clients with lymphedema post cancer treatment.

Sometimes as a result of excess fluid, surgery or illness there can be a blockage in the lymph nodes or the lymphatic pathways, and Lymphatic Drainage, which is a very gentle technique, encourages the removal of blockages and moves lymph so it can be excreted naturally by the body.

Over on my blog, I’ve outlined the Purpose of Lymphatic Drainage, the various applications & the positive benefits of this practice.

The end to Daylight Savings can disrupt our body clock.
Our circadian rhythms need to adjust to:
* Earlier Darkness
* Changes in Sleep Timing
* Subtle shifts in hormones such as melatonin and cortisol.

Even thought it’s just one hour, our nervous systems don’t immediately catch up.

This can show up as:
* Feeling more tired or flat
* Poor sleep quality
* Increased muscle tension
* Feeling a bit wired and tired at the same time

Massage helps guide your nervous system back into balance—supporting deeper rest, less stress, and a body that feels like itself again.

If your body’s been asking for it, consider this as your sign 💫
