It's been a while since I've introduced myself, and so much has changed at Bowline since then.
My name is David, and I'm the owner of Bowline Remedial Massage and Recovery. I'm a qualified remedial massage therapist who takes a holistic view to how the body heals — looking at the whole person rather than just chasing symptoms.
I first developed an interest in remedial massage while looking for a career change after facing many long days/ years in hospitality management. From the moment I enrolled in the Diploma of Remedial massage I became fascinated by the interconnected nature of all things within the body and its ability to heal itself. I was constantly amazed how the application of pressure,touch and stretching could influence change in the body and mind. Since qualifying in 2015 I have dedicated considerable time to undertaking new training and developed a passion for learning as much as I can on what techniques I can adapt to assist my clients.
When I started Bowline 2 years ago, it was just a guy with a mobile massage table doing mobile massage. Since then it's grown into a full recovery space and an even better community— we now offer float therapy, sauna (both barrel and infrared), ice bath, compression boots, and regular wellness events, alongside the massage work.
The idea behind Bowline has stayed the same though — to create a space for a community of people interested in wellness a place to recover, relax and invest in their own wellbeing. Whether that's chronic pain, training recovery, stress, or just needing to switch off for an hour, there's usually a combination of what we offer that helps.
If you haven't been in yet, or it's been a while, I'd love to see you. You can book through www.bowlineremedialmassage.com.au or give us a call, and I'm always happy to chat about what might suit you best if you're not sure where to start.
Thanks for being part of this journey so far — more to come.
David
