  • She has completed her Certificate in Myofascial Dry Needling in Brisbane (QAcademy); which is a component of the Advanced Diploma in Myotherapy and involved  four weeks of intensive training.
  • She has completed an Advanced Certificate of Integrated Cupping Therapy through Health Traditions, with one of the foremost international experts in cupping. She specializes in both Modern and Flame Cupping.

Marisa's passion for soft tissue therapy in particular remedial massage, means she keeps her skills and knowledge up to date by regular professional education courses.

During her time in Melbourne she worked at one of Melbourne's most well known rugby union teams, the Melbourne Rebels; providing sports and remedial massage to players.

Since moving to Townsville she has worked in a number of prominent local massage clinics, providing remedial massage to a vast number of clients and gaining experience in a variety of conditions. Marisa is currently working for a well known clinic with remedial massage therapists and other health professionals, keeping her clinical skills and knowledge up to date and exposing her to best practice techniques in the industry.

Who We Are/Our History

Marisa's own experience suffering from painful conditions fuelled her interest in and passion for massage and helping people. As an IT professional for 15 years, she constantly suffered from shoulder pain and headaches as well as chronic back pain from a recurring back injury. Having tried various other treatments without success, she finally experienced long lasting relief after receiving regular remedial massage treatments.

Her first hand experience of how therapeutic and effective remedial massage can be woke her passion to help people suffering from pain and discomfort, and to improve their quality of life in the same way remedial massage has done for her. That lead to her completing her Diploma in Remedial Massage, and starting a new career.
