Caroline uses cupping on me for my very tight muscles. It’s great when I feel a bit sooky about a deep remedial treatment because she can use cups instead of going in deep with her thumbs. I love the results. I have had chronic back issues for about 25 years. So I love a regular massage treatment with cupping (about every 3 months) and this helps keep me going. I have had gliding cups and vacuum cups used on my shoulders and back muscles to release the tightness. It never fails to work. Caroline has a gentle approach, a firm touch and always explains what she is doing and checks how I am going. I would recommend her cupping for anyone who is looking for a solution to stubborn tight muscles and deep knots. (Darren)
I go to Taiwan regularly and can get cupping cheaply over there from the experts. It’s pretty amazing that an Aussie can do the same job just as effectively and I can say that because I’ve tried lots of TCM doctors and massage therapists here and they just don’t get it. Caroline is masterful with her use of cups and has all kinds. My favourite are the rubber cups for gliding and the glass vacuum cups. She has used them on my back and legs mainly. I am a mad cyclist and I tend to get treatment when I have really hammered myself. I book in for 90-180 minutes to get the works. It never fails to get me going again. I can walk in like a cripple and walk out normally. Thanks Caroline for the interest you always show and the care you take to give me a perfect treatment. I never feel like you are just giving me a run of the mill treatment that everyone else gets. You find all the troubled spots and go in hard which I love (even though I grimace a bit and might not sound like I appreciate it). (Tang)
I ‘ve been coming to Caroline’s clinic for about 5 years and I love getting cupping and massage. It means that she can work on one area but still give a treatment to another part of my body. Some practitioners who do cupping wander off and treat someone else or just leave you to wait until the cups have done their work. But Caroline always finds something else she can work on – I love this. (Kara)
I have had trouble with my ITB’s ever since I started playing footy as a kid – when i grew very tall in my teens it was at its worst. But when I started getting knees issues recently, I thought I would have to finally act my age and chuck it in (footy). But then I heard about Caroline and her cupping treatment. Getting the ITB cupping treatment is kind of full on (gliding cups pull pretty hard on the muscle) but its worth it. She glides the rubber cups along my ITBs and the Quads and Hammys and put stationary cups above and below my knee and near the hips. Amazing results. The muscles and tendons just relax and get better over the next few days. No need surgery required and still playing footy and running at 56. (Pete)
My son has Asthma and gets a lot of coughs. Caroline does a great intercostal massage for the rib pain and cupping to help alleviate the lung problems. She is so gentle and caring . Corey loves seeing Caroline and she always puts him at ease and remembers their last conversations, even if its 6 months later. (Beth)
Dear Caroline, Just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful massages I have been having. Not only have my aching muscles benefited but also the relaxing time has been of great value to my tired and stressed mind. It is really nice to come to your lovely relaxing room and know that I will leave feeling much better than when I arrive. I am also looking forward to once again trying the cupping technique, as I noticed a distinct improvement to a particular stubborn area of my back. Also Caroline, a big thank you for treating me with such kindness and respect ,and sharing your vast knowledge, you are always such a pleasure to see. Warmest Regards, Sue
