This session involves an assessment and a global approach to recovery and rehab, utilising remedial and or sports techniques depending on the purpose or reason for each individuals massage.

These sessions being slightly longer are great when you have a variety of areas you need work on, or require a little longer to completely let go of tensions or a more conservative approach is required (e.g. frozen shoulder).

Ultimately we are after pain free, optimal mobility and function whatever the mechanism for the issue .

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) is a specialised massage technique designed to enhance the flow of lymphatic fluid throughout the body. This gentle, rhythmic manipulation promotes detoxification, reduces swelling, and supports the immune system. MLD provides numerous benefits, including alleviation of conditions such as lymphedema, post-surgical recovery, and chronic fatigue. By stimulating the lymphatic vessels, it aids in the removal of waste products, thus optimizing overall health and well-being. Personalised sessions are tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual, ensuring a holistic approach to wellness.

Providing Relaxation, Neuromuscular & Sports Massage Therapy Since 2012

Hi folks,

Here’s a little insight into what to expect during a session with me.

I take the time to listen—no one knows your body better than you. Through assessment and communication, I aim to build trust and connection, allowing me to tailor treatment to your needs. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, pain management, injury recovery, or medical support, I’m here to help. After treatment, we reassess, and I’ll check in a few days later to see how things have settled.

While my approach is grounded in medical and sports science, the foundation of all good massage is quality touch—meeting your body where it’s at in a safe, comfortable space. Sometimes a therapeutic or relaxation approach provides better results than deep pressure, while other times, neuromuscular trigger point therapy, myofascial release and cupping, or dry needling are more effective. And for those who love “deep tissue” (a spa term, by the way)—it’s soft tissue work you’re after. Trust me, you’ll feel it! I could hurt you, but that’s never the goal—because that’s simply not how massage works.

With 20+ years in sport and health—including competing, coaching, military PT, and rehabilitation across most major sports codes and some more specialised areas—I bring a broad skill set to my practice. My background in communication, sensory integration, and sport & health psychology helps me better understand, support, and refer clients when needed. Likewise, while I offer educated guidance on nutrition, I refer to specialists when necessary.

I’m excited to now offer Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), a medically-based technique that supports fluid regulation, immune function, and post-surgical recovery. It reduces swelling, enhances circulation, and facilitates the body's natural detoxification and healing processes. While MLD often induces relaxation (rest & digest) by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, its primary purpose is therapeutic—any extra benefits are a bonus!

Whether you’re striving for peak performance, managing a medical condition, recovering from surgery, or simply seeking relief from daily stress, I’m here to support you with evidence-based care in a welcoming space. Let’s work together to achieve your goals.

  • Feeling a lot less broken than I ought to - thanks to Ana's relentless efforts to put me back together again in the middle of a peak rowing load on the build up to World Masters Games in 1 month. My session at Anew was long overdue and a perfect reminder that aging bodies need a little (ok a lot) of nudging back into line when we push them as hard as we used to when we were 30 years younger. We still have more work to do but I know I am in safe and competent hands. Thanks Ana!

  • I would like to write an official Thank You to Ana at Anew for the treatment I have received at her hands. I went to her with a tight left hip and adductor, and we discovered a range of nasty, tight, gummed-up and sore places all over my legs and glutes, and over 4 sessions I have come out limber and more balanced in my legs and back than I have been in years! The relief!!! For years I have been foiled by 'wonky hips' and a 'loose lower back'... No more 🙂 From being leery of squats and deadlifts, because of how lopsided I used to feel, I have become so enthusiastic that I am starting a strength cycle for the next few months 🙂 Never squatting more than 60kgs out of discomfort, my shiny new 1RM is suddenly 97.5kgs. And deadlifts, again never having gone over 60kgs, 1RM is starting at 117.5!!! I can sustain a solid prone hold, with 40kgs on my back, for a whole minute now. Ana has shown me how to unlock the strength and stability in my glutes and my abdominals, and by doing the homework she set me, and going to see her for tissue therapy, I have function and strength again 😃 I am forever grateful ❤ I have had physios and osteopaths and seen chiropractors, but I believe Ana provides the most rounded and 'hit the source' therapy I have ever come across. Also, she is good for a laugh while it's going on. I will refer all of my friends and associates on to her. Thanks Ana 😉
