I was carrying around chronic pain that I thought I would never get rid of. I’m managing to stay pain-free through the week now and I’m over the moon!

Shar Bakkar, Remedial Massage Therapist

Hello I’m Shar.

I offer Remedial massage, hot and cold stone therapy, Lymphatic Drainage and Reiki energy healing to name a few.

I am a dedicated, intuitive and compassionate remedial massage therapist with a passion for helping others achieve holistic wellness and sharing in their journey. With significant experience in different aspects of healing from:

  • chronic pain
  • emotional distress
  • grief
  • end of life
  • illness
  • injury

I love to personalise a soothing and effective treatment for every client.
My approach in each session works with elements of mind, body and spirit to balance your body, nurture and create harmony. I use a combination of traditional massage techniques and complementary modalities to alleviate pain, reduce tension, restore balance and replenish joie de vivre.

Here are some of the techniques I use, if you’re interested in the nuts and bolts:

  • Remedial Massage* Trigger point therapy
  • Relaxation Massage* Myofascial release
  • Reiki Massage* deep tissue massage
  • Pregnancy Massage* Manual Lymphatic Drainage

I have first-hand experience in the body’s innate ability to heal. Having suffered a serious back injury 10 years ago, I was able to overcome chronic pain and avoid surgery with the help of therapists and holistic wellness facilitators; plus hard work and consistently returning to a positive mindset.

When I’m not massaging your knots and worries away, I take care of myself by practising meditation, yoga, qigong, walking my dog, journalling, self-reiki practice, forest bathing, music, breathwork, spending time with family and friends.

I am dedicated to helping people find a path that will see them nourished, relaxed and supported through their daily lives.
