Absolutely not! Despite the name, Byron Bumps is open to all, bumpy or otherwise.

I have years of experience in remedial massage, treating all kinds of bodies.

My business was created with mothers in mind, and I have a passion for pregnancy and postpartum, but I have many clients who are not pregnant or identify as male, fathers, brothers, grandparents etc One of my most popular appointment choices is the Partner massage.

Heck yes!

What a wonderful gift a massage is!

I have both physical cards and online vouchers available for whatever amount you like.

A mobile session with me looks a bit like this.

I arrive at your place ( please don't tidy for me!) and we choose a good room to set up. You may need to feed the baby or have a shower, I will use this time to set up the table. Then we have a chat and agree to a treatment plan. During your massage I check with you for pressure and comfort. Sometimes we chat about pregnancy and birth, other times a silent session may suit ( feel free to request one!)

Afterwards, while you dress and relax, I pack up and sneak out leaving you in peace. This usually takes 1.5 hrs of your time.

At the clinic its much the same, however you may have to wait for me in the waiting room if I am with a client. You’re welcome to do a little shopping if its during business hours.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.

My preference is for clients to leave on their underwear, as this is more hygienic and usually a lot less awkward for both of us.

You're welcome to leave on as much of your clothing as you wish, however this may interfere with the flow and style of massage I deliver.

I drape you with nice big towels, always keeping your body covered and snug unless it's being massaged.

Breastfeeding mothers may prefer to keep on breast-pads.

Your towels are yours alone, and are always freshly laundered just for you.

I'm not grossed out by breast milk, but I don't want you to be laying in a puddle.

I need a few words of consent from you, but otherwise NOPE! If you want a quiet session please let me know! I'm more than happy to shut up but I sometimes need reminding!

Nah, the circle cupping marks aren't painful, and my gliding silicone cupping wont leave you marked up.

The marks stagnant cups leave are not true bruises, and tissue damage is trivial. These fade within a few days.

The "Sha" of Gua Sha is similar, petechiae is light speckling on the skin due to abrasion caused from the tools scraping against it. Facial Gua Sha is too delicate to cause petechiae. The benefits of both these treatment far outweigh the non-permanent light skin discolouration some experience.

A lot of the images used online are extreme examples and are not representative of what I do with these tools.

Yes, I am open to treating anyone and everyone.

However, I will never claim to be a miracle healer. I always encourage my clients to work with their health practitioners along side massage. I am more than happy to refer a client I feel is out of my depth, and will never attempt to "fix" you.

Massage is wonderful, but unless you are supported with adequate rest, nutrition, exercise and mental health support, what I do alone will not be appropriate treatment for any serious health issues. If you are unsure if massage is suitable for your condition, feel free to contact me after consulting with your Doctor, Midwife, Naturopath, Osteopath etc

No, not currently. To offer these I need a provider number, given to me by a massage association. I am fully qualified (Diploma Remedial Massage) and insured, and have been a member of both ANTA and AAMT ( now MMA) in the past, but I am not a current member.

I have chosen to no longer support these associations and I feel my prices fairly reflect my offerings. If you have any questions relating to my qualifications and insurance please email me.

Mums, please let me come to you instead!

A home massage with kids present is fine as long as your kids are being supervised by someone while you enjoy your massage. Newborns are welcome with you on the table or in their pram or bassinet next to the table. I am happy to work around breastfeeding etc.

The clinic is sadly not ideal or safe for children, however a pram is welcome if you absolutely must bring your brand new bubba.

I ask you not to bring your toddlers or older kids, as I share the space with other practitioners and their clients.
