Welcome to In Your Element
Ayurveda means the art of living and in the old Vedic scriptures from India it is described as the mother of all healing sciences. The ancient yet eternal wisdom of Ayurveda seeks to generate balance at all levels of a person's being through its vast tapestry of knowledge. Ayurveda rejuvenates and helps you to live in harmony with nature.

About Alexandra
My passion for massage and healing therapies started over 20 years ago, when I was still living in Europe. While working in the corporate world as an event organiser and language manager, I was drawn to various massage techniques such as Swedish, Polarity and Reflexology.
A few years after emigrating to Australia, I took the plunge and studied Remedial Massage and Integrated Body Therapies. These studies gave me a solid grasp on the body's anatomy and physiology as well as a good understanding of other healing modalities such as Lymphatic Drainage, Shiatsu, Traditional Chinese Massage, Myofascial Release and Aromatherapy.It is my view that each therapy has its unique set of strengths which can be tailored to suit the client's individual needs at the time.
When I first started my Ayurvedic journey, I was excited to learn there was a body of knowledge that clearly explains the interconnectedness of everything and at the same time respects our individual elemental differences.
Amongst my truly transforming experiences was giving birth naturally to our two beautiful children. This taught me to listen to my body (and baby in utero) and to prepare physically, mentally and emotionally for the journey of motherhood. I still credit my Ayurvedic post-natal massages for my quick recovery after giving birth. I felt hormonally balanced, at peace and relaxed.
In my massage practice my aim is to restore balance to the body using my current knowledge of Ayurveda and the various healing modalities I've learned along the way, which I believe ultimately allows the body to heal itself. I feel blessed for having discovered Ayurveda, which to me is a perfect framework for bringing balance, health and self realization to one's life.

It helps to relieve joint and muscle stiffness, nourishes the skin, promotes the flow of energy and increases blood circulation.

A relaxing Indian head and neck massage followed by a facial massage. Calms the entire nervous system, nourishes hair and stimulates brain cells.
.... For the mind -
THE INNER FLUTE - SHIRODHARA
This traditional therapy relaxes the nervous system, integrates brain function, creates an alpha state, stabilizes mood and improves stress handling ability. A continuous stream of over three litres of specifically chosen, luke warm Ayurvedic oil is poured over the forehead to quieten the mind and to induce a spontaneous meditative state. Shirodhara has been proven to have a positive effect on certain neurotransmitters in the brain. By relaxing the mind, it also improves the circulation to the brain thereby allowing it to be nourished more effectively. Recommended for stress, anxiety, insomnia and depression. Includes a foot bath and shower.
