Ayurveda Therapist

Gabriela

The idea of becoming a Remedial Massage Therapist started taking shape back in 2015 when Gabriela was studying to become a Yoga instructor. During the training she was introduced to the philosophy of Ayurveda, and the knowledge she’s developed with that course inspired her ongoing interest for Natural Health. This took her to her first Massage course. Here in Australia, Gabriela has completed a Diploma of Remedial Massage and has been working in the area since her graduation.

Massage Therapy is one of the most commonly used forms of Holistic Medicine. This means that, as a practitioner, Gabriela takes into consideration all aspects of each person (e.g. Physical, Mental and Emotional), treating the root of the problem, and not just the symptom. For that reason, she likes to use an intuitive approach to her treatments, incorporating a variety of practices and techniques to help clients to achieve better health.

She believes in the healing benefits of Holistic Medicine. Living this modern way of life causes many to develop issues such as stress and anxiety, that turn into physical imbalances. Gabriela usually says that: “the body talks”, and if that we learn how to listen, we can treat it naturally and free from side effects. That’s why she became so passionate about Massage Therapy. It means a lot to Gabriela to help people to feel less pain and improve their quality of life.
