About Me

Hello, my name is Tania Harrold and I am very passionate about bringing healing and wellbeing to the human body. My interest in Natural Therapies began several years ago when I became aware of the powerful effect of my untrained massage on family and friends. "Imagine what I could do if I actually knew what I was doing?? " I thought. And so it began… my exploration into the amazing world of healing, tactile therapies.

My career in Complimentary Health Care began in 2003 when I had the opportunity to follow my dream of becoming a Massage Therapist. After establishing my private practice I became a member of the Therapy Team at Bloomhill Cancer Help in 2004. This work highlighted the need for formal education and qualification in Oncology Massage which was gained in 2006 through Eleanor Oyston’s Massage, Cancer and More Program and followed by Gayle Macdonald’s Massage for People with Cancer Program in 2008.

In addition to my private practice I am Bloomhill’s Senior Therapist and Complex Lymphatic Therapy Consultant. Working daily with the unique experiences that oncology massage brings has brought a high level of awareness to my work as well as building a profound knowledge base from which to draw upon.

Regularly co-facilitating with Eleanor Oyston in QLD/NSW has enabled the continuance of my strong learning curve in Oncology Massage, thereby giving me a valuable education unsurpassed by other training in the field. I am the QLD Facilitator for OMM1 and am available for support and guidance for graduates of the OMT Program.

My belief is that our bodies are whole when we have equilibrium between our emotional and physical states and I strive to ensure you feel that balance within at the end of your treatment. I would love the opportunity to discuss further the treatments available as they can be designed to meet any specific therapeutic needs.

I look forward to meeting you… Tania

A therapeutic massage designed especially to suit your needs.

Myopractic Therapy

Myopractic Therapy is a gentle yet powerful technique designed to re-pattern the body’s energy flow to enable the body to heal itself. This therapy is completely safe for all ages, from new-borns to the frail elderly and also for pregnant women. This is an excellent treatment on its own but is often used in conjunction with other modalities to greatly facilitate the body’s healing process. Frozen Shoulder, Tennis Elbow, R.S.I, Sinusitis, and Pregnancy Backache, to name just a few, respond quickly and effectively. Three initial treatments, 5 – 7 days apart, are recommended for optimum results with a maintenance program then put into action.

Ear Candling

Ear candling is a gentle, relaxing way of clearing the ear canal; it stimulates the lymphatics and promotes drainage in the sinus system. It works similar to the moxibustion method used in Chinese medicine. A hollow candle made of 100% bees wax and pure linen is inserted into the ear canal and then lit to create a warm air vacuum, which draws wax and moisture into the candle. Essential oils of eucalyptus and thyme are embedded in the candle for their medicinal antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.

Approx One Hour - $40
