About Teresa


Teresa Findlay has been working as a massage therapist since 1995.  She enjoys a busy clientele and was based at QEII Clinical Massage Therapy for 16 years.

Teresa enjoys having her own clinic based in Woodend and very much looks forward to applying her knowledge to assist you in your quest for better health and a pain free life.

Teresa is a graduate from the Canterbury College of Natural Medicine where she also taught for over 10 years. Teresa continues to attend post graduate courses annually.  This ensures she will regularly increase and improve her treatment skills and keep up with internationally recognized modalitites.
Over the years, Teresa has attended post graduate courses in the following:
  • Neural Manipulation
  • ​Visceral Vascular Manipulation
  • New Manual Articular Manipulation
  • ​Myofascial Release
  • Neuromuscular Massage Therapy
  • Visceral Manipulation
Her intention during a treatment session is to utiliise as many of these techniques as needed to achieve best results.  True results of a treatment session are felt several days later and it’s not unusual to experience some post treatment awareness, depending on which modalities were used.

Teresa does of course, offer relaxation massage also, but wants to point out that true relaxation comes from freedom of movement, a decrease/elimination of pain/discomfort and ease of digestion and respiration.  These benefits can only be truly achieved by participating in treatment sessions.

Teresa says - "Essentially my aim is to relieve you of your pain and discomfort.  I will therefore utilise all or some of the techniques I have over a period of 3-4 sessions.  I will only request continuation of treatment if both you and I are satisfied that progress is being made."
