Testimonials

“I feel a lot safer and more in my body”

I came to see Michelle after a few years of undergoing clinical therapy and taking medication for anxiety and depression. I have particularly struggled with dissociation. I was very sceptical about Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, but was recommended the service by a clinical psychologist. I’m really glad I took the plunge as it helps as much as, if not more than clinical therapy!

Seeing Michelle has helped me to solidify what people sometimes refer to as “mindfulness.” I feel a lot safer and more in my body. After my first sessions with Michelle I remember being conscious of the bumps on my car’s steering wheel for the first time. I’ve been able to take what Michelle does and use it to stay calm in everyday life and during particularly high episodes of anxiety. I have also had some incredible moments during the sessions with Michelle including strong, healthy feelings and a sense of “flow.”

The practice is very gentle and safe, and Michelle is very attuned to her client’s needs. I would very confidently recommend Michelle to anyone who is struggling with anxiety. Give it a try, you’ll be surprised!

“I have suffered from anxiety and depression for most of my life”

I simply cannot recommend Michelle highly enough. The Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy she provides is an amazing modality and journey to health.

I have suffered from anxiety and depression for most, if not all of my life. This took its toll on my health, and after a severe viral infection I picked up in Thailand, my immune system shut down. A few months later I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. I suffered with severe fatigue, chronic viral symptoms, insomnia, anxiety, depression, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), systemic oedema, hives, persistent premenstrual symptoms, night sweats and severe menstrual pain, as well as endometriosis and ovarian cysts. I was also diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis a few years later – having small lesions on my brain. All this despite leading a healthy lifestyle. It was devastating and frustrating to say the least. Every single day for 13 years was full of pain for me and keeping down a job/life was very difficult.

In the 13 years between my diagnosis and meeting Michelle I had tried every modality, diet, therapy I could in an effort to regain my health. I even studied to become a Naturopath in the hope I could fix myself. Some things helped, some didn’t. Some helped only temporarily, but I never felt well and my pain barely reduced. I had spent thousands of dollars and felt defeated.

I was given Michelle’s name from a friend, and have been seeing her weekly (sometimes twice weekly) for the past year. Within three months of seeing her my menstrual pain had stopped, my IBS and gut problems disappeared, and within six months my anxiety, depression, and insomnia had all gone. It felt like the intense grief  I was walking around with had left my body. I felt more settled, centred and happy within myself. In the last six months I’ve felt less pain in my body and continue to gain more energy. I have not had any night sweats, fatigue, viral symptoms, anxiety or depression in over six months. I am ecstatic at the results!

Michelle is gentle, kind and caring. She creates a safe and comfortable space for healing. For anyone who suffers from any kind of pain – I implore you to see Michelle and let her help you regain your health.
