25.01.2022 I'm just a little bit digusted with myself that I've not been saying thank you but that's busy life I guess. . Thanks to everyone that's been a part of my... Month? By this point! . And thank you again to everyone that's chosen me to be a part of their month and trusted me with their bodies, health and not to waste their time.... (Even if I do tend to prattle on during treatment sessions.) . Have an amazing week, I know mine's looking good. See more

24.01.2022 Client: Jacob, do you think today we could run the cups like, high pressure up and down and all over my back? . Me: Yeah sure, it might suck but that's fine. Oh! Hey what if I park a whole bunch on the opposite side then switch over halfway and we'll see which one works better? . Client: OK!... . #nowtakingrequests #itotallyknowwhatimdoing #noseriouslyidoknowwhatimdoing #Repost @unimassagehobart While this is NOT the typical result or desired effect from a cupping session, never let it never be said that we don't accommodate requests when it comes to your treatment! - Jacob See more

24.01.2022 First ever no-show! What do?! . If there's one thing I learned from retail (aside from a hatred of my fellow man) it's the mantra "If there's time for leaning there's time for cleaning". . Because I don't do enough bloody cleaning of a day already...... . Also as a side note, doing a job I love and meeting people who trust me with their health, bodies and time has done wonders for eliminating my aforementioned hatred. . Still not super chuffed about getting ghosted tho. See more

23.01.2022 "I love working for myself, not only do I get to wear shorts to work but I don't even have to wear a damn uniform!" . *several months later* . "Oh boy my shirts are here! Now I've got a uniform to look more professional"

23.01.2022 It's astounding what 9 weeks of de-conditioning can do to your mind, body and routines. . Today was my busiest day since being "Back" at work only because I alowed it to be. . I've been purposely restricting my amount of clients each day to prevent burn out and today told me that, while it's felt against my nature (I don't ever like to turn down work) it has absolutely been in my best interests as I am thoroughly knackered.... . I also realised that my manners have lost their tone as well so allow me to give them a quick workout. . Thank you to everyone that's been a part of my week, thank you greatly to those that chose me to be a part of theirs and thank you greatly once again @sandybaymassagecentre for giving me the opportunity to do what I love while access to my own little room is still verboten. . Hope you all had a cracker week and I'll see some of you again Tuesday. See more

22.01.2022 *apprehensive yet excited squealing intensifies* . But for real tho if the gym decides to stick to the stage 3 lift and not the initial DATE of stage 3 (13th July) you'll hopefully be able to catch me back at Uni Massage sooner rather than later! . On a side note, BIG thanks to everyone that I've inconvenienced with rescheduling this week. After a solid day of screen time and toast the mini monster is finally on the mend and it'll be business as usual as of Tuesday.... . And no, she didn't test positive to the C word. . Happy weekend! Hope it was better than our households! See more

22.01.2022 #Repost @unimassagehobart (@get_repost) Despite the gloom at the moment there was a little bit of sunshine on the horizon yesterday in the guise of some unfortunate misinformation. . It looked as if the restriction on remedial massage from Remedial Massage Therapists was to be lifted but unfortunately that info has since been debunked by the Dept of Health Tasmania.... . There's conflicting info coming at us from both sides which makes would seemingly make decisions hard but our motto has always been "Your health, our priority." . Without the go-ahead from the Dept of Health we as a team would be acting against that standard we have set. . Long story short, we're still closed, we're still missing all our loyal clients and we're still looking forward to positive news come the 15th and will eagerly be awaiting your custom with welcoming (and sparkling clean) hands. . "The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming." See more

17.01.2022 Just in case you're wondering I do, on occasion, practice that self care I preach so hard. Good bit of facial scraping after a cheeky after-work leg session. . On another note, thank you heaps to everyone that took yhe time to visit me this week and thank you again for trusting me with your health and bodies. .... Time for TV night, popcorn and a steadily building feeling of dread regarding my looming leg doms. See more

17.01.2022 Chronologically I am 34. (Maturity age is questionable) . But this morning I discovered I have just turned this many years old. .... What new discoveries have YOU made about yourself so far this quarantine? See more

15.01.2022 Jacob has two spots available today at Sandy Bay. . One is a last minute opening at 11am. . There's also availability for a 2pm booking.... . Located from our own temporary space at Sandy Bay Massage and Beauty. . DM text or call to book now! . Eftpos available with digital receipts for health fund claims. . #Repost @unimassagehobart (@get_repost) See more

14.01.2022 And now a post from slightly more professional me. . #Repost @unimassagehobart Were you surprised when the lift date of stage 3 restrictions was bought forward?... . Because we sure as heck were! . By now you've likely heard the terrific news that @unigymtas Hobart will be reopening on Monday 29th! . We will be opening our doors as of Tuesday in a limited capacity due to sneaky bringing forward of dates conflicting with prior arrangements but rest assured we will be in full swing in a matter of weeks! Providing our bodies can cope with the rigors of helping your bodies cope with the rigors of coping with the last few months. . Sneaky inception gag. . Booking through the website will be available again as of Monday but please be aware of limited spaces for the time being. . More announcements will be made in the coming days so keep your eyes peeled but in the meantime get happy folks! . - Jacob See more

11.01.2022 It's a real "stick your head in a bear-trap" kinda morning. . #hurtsogood #passthecoffee #notoneallofthecoffee @beartraptherapy

11.01.2022 You missed me didn't you? . Well don't miss me anymore, come see me! . I can't get into the room at UniMassage due to "reasons" so for the time being you can catch me at my place in Oakdowns Thursday mornings, and at my old haunt in Sandy Bay Massage and Beauty Tuesday and Sunday mornings all from 9:30 onwards as of June 1st.... . Few things, I can only do remedial massage, I can't offer hicaps but I'll send digital receipts for healthfund claims, I'll be taking Eftpos or filthy filthy cash (clean cash is preferable) and I'm limited to about 3 spots a day for the moment so I don't end up crippling myself as I've done NO massage work for the past 9 weeks. . Not even the wife. She's not happy but the kids seem entertained. . New rates due to rent and cleaning costs are temporarily a flat rate of $70 1hr and $95 1.5hr but they'll go back to normal once I'm back at Uni. . TL:DR? 9:30am Tuesday and Sunday @ Sandy Bay Massage and Beauty Thursday @ JL:MT Oakdowns . DM text or call to book cause the UniMassage site still isn't up and running for bookings and you can't book me through the SBM website as I'm renting a space and doing my own thing. . Like I always have really. . Well what are you doing still reading?! GET ON IT!! See more

11.01.2022 I'd like to apologise to any clients looking to book me over the weekend . Unfortunately I'll be in Launceston visiting family . It's ok, nothing bad has happened, it's just unfortunate that my family lives in Launceston... . See you after the school holidays! . #sorrynotsorry #icansayitcauseimfromthere #seriouslythoughitsatadunfortunate See more

08.01.2022 I dunno what's happening but you may as well make it work for you. . @unimassagehobart (@get_repost) We've had some last minute cancellations folks so make someone else's loss your gain!... . Head to www.unimassage.com.au to book See more

06.01.2022 Well those 7 days just flew by! . Big appreciative thank you to all those that took the time out of their week to come visit my little room this week. It was really great to catch up with every body. .... That wasn't a typo. . Now for Lego and pathfinder podcasts. . See you next week! Which is in a few hours! Yay! See more

06.01.2022 #Repost @unimassagehobart (@get_repost) You're probably like a T-rex at a fence waiting for us to re-open. And you better believe we're the same way! .... With the new roadmap in place there's finally a firm yet malleable date regarding remedial massage therapists who are not in a clinical health care setting to resume work. . HOWEVER we at UniMassage are obviously relying on @unigymtas Hobart re-opening before we can invite you back into our lives. As such, despite knowing the date that we can start legally working again we will not be taking bookings JUST yet to save the hassle of possible reschedules. . We are all; you, us, everyone! Not just relying but depending on us all to do the right thing with these new lowered restrictions. . Now's not the time to get complacent. Let's all keep doing the right thing to make sure the second wave is as controlled and mild as possible. . Please. I mean I'm loving the time with the kids but I'd REALLY like to get back to work! . - Jacob (Part time dino wrangler full time child wrangler.) See more

05.01.2022 Reminder: Plan ahead as far as you like, but it always pays to factor in that nature will always take it's course and do as it pleases.

05.01.2022 Client: So have you ever used ***redacted*** because of the whole bodybuilding thing? . Me: Not since I last competed so, like... 6 years ago? . Client: Riiight, cause I was gunna say you're not like, overly big and bulky, you know? For someone who trains for that? You know?... . Me: Yep, cheers. Oh hey look a trigger point. . Client: *Muffled shout* . So looks like I'm back to not stuffing around as much with the food again for a while until my poor little ego heals. . #coolstorybro See more

03.01.2022 Ever wondered what the bloody hell it is I do all day exactly? . Me too! . So for documentation purposes I'm bombarding the @unimassagehobart story with my shenanigans while at work.... . Go check it yo. . Or don't. It's your life, master your own destiny already. See more

03.01.2022 Git on it! Come hang out while I do stuff to your meat suit. . On a side note, that's appropriate storage for weight lifting gloves. . #Repost @unimassagehobart... I've had a last minute cancellation this morning for a 10am booking! . Head to the website now to snap it up and get into the nice dry warm room for an hour. . www.unimassage.com.au . -Jacob See more

02.01.2022 If you've ever come to see me with a jacked up neck, upper back or shoulder chances are that were I to have a complex system of mirrors around the treatment room, this would look familiar to you. . As it is it probably looks like it feels like it would look familiar to you. Savvy? . The placement of the cups helps to wonder bra (lift and separate) the tissues surrounding the scapula, the movement (usually assisted) allows said tissue to glide against each other. The combinati...on of compression, decompression and movement has been one of the most effective systems I've found to tear apart bound together fascia and muscles. . Which both sounds far more aggressive and horrible than it actually is. . Want some of this in your life? Sure you do! Head to www.unimassage.com.au to book in with me for a what has often been described as "a real time." See more

01.01.2022 You know when you start feeling bad because you're never posting to social media because all "influencer" logic states that follower engagment is the gateway to success? . Then you realise you're not posting because you're a tad busy because you've got clients, kids and a house to organise? . Anyways here's some hashtags.... #buriedinlaundry #surroundedbychildren #bookinginclients #workthisarvo #dontlieyourejellyofmybeanie #noyoucanthaveit #illfightyouforit .
