25.01.2022 For me, being a remedial massage therapist, is not just about giving massage therapy.. My job involves thinking outside the box with certain clients and cases Ive assisted my clients with. Most days, im given challenging issues to work on in my clinic, with differing and various issues people come to see me with. ... They could range from, bulging disc pain, chronic hip pain, knee and elbow pain, neck pain, migraines, whip lash, bursitis, sporting injuries, foot, ankle, calf and planter fasciitis, elbow and shoulder pain etc.. And then sometimes, a new client will come in with an issue that Ive never treated before, this particular person had baxter nerve pain or entrapment in both feet, causing terrible pain when walking, and bulging discs in the lumber spine. She hasnt been experiencing any pain in her lumber back, but had limited range of movement e.g. She wasnt able to bend forward to far. So with this new found knowledge of her issue, I then put together a treatment I felt would or could help her. I addressed the tightness in her lumber back with dry needling, massage, heat and light cupping.. I stretched and massaged the posterior chain of muscles of her legs and feet quite deeply then stretched the hamstrings and achilles.. I then applied rocktape to her lower back and taped up both feet.. She had to do an 8 hour shift on Sunday and work all week, and she was feeling anxious that she wouldnt get through her day without pain. After I finished the treatment, she had more range of movement in her lower back and she said she felt great.. I messaged her yesterday to follow up and see how she was going.. Below is her response.. Im so glad my treatment was able to get her through. For me, my motto is, to believe in my abilities to assist my clients better move their bodies with less pain and discomfort.

25.01.2022 To anyone who has ever visited Time to Unwind. I thank you with all my heart.. It was you who helped support my passion when I first opened my doors 7 years ago. ... It was you who helped support my children through school. It was you who inspired me with all your amazing stories. It was you who gave me acknowledgement for my work. It was you who brought tears to my eyes with the things you would share with me about your life. And also Tears to my eyes from laughter and amazing conversations that would unfold It was you who gave me insight into myself. It was you who asked how I am going, and it was you who checked in on me too. It was you who put your faith in me to help you, even through tricky complex concerns I always do my best to help, you trusted me and I thank you. It was you that trusted me to support you through very challenging times in your life, I thank you. And it is you that keeps my passion alive. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be there to support you all, and especially through these challenging times, being here for you all has been a healing not just for you, but for me also. thank you for all your support.

18.01.2022 Only 4 weeks until Christmas! It's been a big year for us all, and a much needed break for me this Christmas. I will be taking a break from the 19th of December to the 13th of January.... I'm booked up for this year, and the week of the 13th of January 2021 is already booked out, the last one went today! Jump online to book in for 2021! https://timetounwindmassage.com.au/Bookings

18.01.2022 The image below is the Corpus Callosum.. Its the main network of nerve fibres that connects our left and right Brain hemispheres. Its job is to integrate information between the hemispheres.. My son was born without his Corpus Callosum, he is now 9 years old, and in grade 3. ... Everyday, we see the challenges that he faces with day to day tasks. Yesterday, we were at Mt Tamborine, Charlie is an active kid, he doesnt stop moving, he always needs some kind of stimulation, movement and touch, he is not aware of his surroundings, at times walking into people, burping loudly in public! screaming at the top of his lungs, he may run off, not looking where he is going and nearly running into traffic, he will touch everything in the shop. Now you may think this is normal behaviour for a 9 year old, however, we are noticing that in Charlies case, it isnt and it takes a lot from us as his parents to educate him in proper ways to act and be in public spaces for his safety, just like any other kid. Agenesis of the Corpus Callosum is an abnormality occurs in an estimated 1 to 7 out of 4000 live births. Below is a video where professor Linda Richards explains disorders of the Corpus Callosum and how the Corpus Works. It will take many years of research to piece together the impacts of not having a Corpus Callosum, which is what these studies are focusing on. Please take a moment to watch, its so fascinating. Please leave a comment, or if you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=a1RW1oD-Bcw

17.01.2022 What does your face reveal Sometimes its a bit scary to delve deep into our inner selves. The interesting thing is, it shows up on our bodies, it may show up in the form of ... A physical pain in the body that is persistent or just suddenly shows up one day without explanation! or its the way we hold our body which causes it to form into the structure we have, holding our emotions in can form our bodies to become stuck and rigid in a particular pattern. The truth is, out physical bodies are a reflection of our emotional state, a barometer as such. The image below is of course ME! The LEFT sides of my face are together and RIGHT sides of my face are together. The LEFT side represents our feminine self, our inner presentation, soul connection, our personal style with relationships, friends, family etc. And our private personality. The RIGHT side is our Masculine side. It represents our outer mask, our personal style with work, business and strangers, our external presentation and point of view (public persona) our public personality. Over the last few months I have been interested in the study of emotional anatomy. With anything I study, I will always study myself first, before I am confident to bring it to my clients. In emotional anatomy, the face is one aspect we look at, but to get the full picture, we look at the whole body. We look at your body type, shape, dosha, your charkra impulses, triggers in life, we look at enquiry into areas of your life, masculine and feminine essences that a person is dominant in. Areas of a persons consciousness. I find it so fascinating as a bodywork practitioner to see the story of a person unfolding through their physical structure. This is something I may bring into my treatment modalites down the track, once I figure out how I will deliver and structure it, as its still in the early stages of development If this is something you find interesting and would like me to have a go at reading your body profile, please comment below. To look into our true nature is the kindest thing we can give to ourselves Love and blessings Maggie

16.01.2022 And that's a wrap for me at Time to Unwind, my last day for 2020.. Another year gone, and a new year to dawn! Finishing with some much needed rest at my favourite Cafe! ... This year has been a little difficult, and a bit challenging for some of us. It's been a year of uncertainty for many, and in my practice, I have seen more so than in other years the need for time out, relaxation and a place to get away from the restrictions that COVID imposed on us all. It's been one of my busiest years so far, and this proves to me that the simple practice of massage therapy is so important in the lives of many. This year for myself as a practitioner, i've stepped up to the plate, to be more present and more understanding of each person I treat, knowing the difficulties that were faced throughout the year. And in all of the madness of 2020, I remind myself to feel gratitude for my chosen career and my ability to be there for you all in these times. I thank each and every one of you, for visting Time to Unwind, and sharing your stories with me. Allowing me to be of support to you, giving my life much meaning and purpose as your practitioner. Merry Christmas to you all. Love and blessings to all your loved ones and I'll see you in 2021! Maggie Nolan

16.01.2022 I just saw this and decided to share, as I was only just thinking of this today. Running a small business can be tricky, especially with so much coming at us from all directions on social media, about anything and everything in between.. It can be difficult to generate new posts, keep things interesting, find the time to post, make it relevant, funny, engaging etc.. ... However, knowing that even if some post dont get the engagement a business owner may want, theres still people quietly watching and taking it all in. We never know what impact we are having. So just keep doing your thing and happy posting

15.01.2022 My favourite part of the day! Coming home after a big day to the kids and hubby of course, but also my little fur baby, Bailey. Pets are so important for our well-being, they provide us with love, acceptance and endless cuddles. ... They're are so good for our mental health.. I wonder if they know how important they are to us. Please share a photo of your pet. #Timetounwind #pets #puppylove

14.01.2022 I had an amazing experience today.. Yesterday I completed my practitioner qualification in Access BARS.. Today I got to give it as part of a massage session to a client and friend.. ... Read her story below. Xx

14.01.2022 I soak up the beauty that is life.. life is not just the news, life is not just your immediate surroundings, life is not just drama, viruses, anger, fear, anxiety, negative self talk, etc.. Life is simple, it just is, it just does.. I am part of the collective consciousness, and not a victim to it..... I stand alone from the herd and meditate within to find my answers, bubbling up to the surface from within the stillness.. And then from this space, I can be free. #mediation #stillness #lifeissimple #collectiveconsciousness #aloneness #timetounwind

14.01.2022 With the recent news of COVID 19 in our local area. I will be taking extra precautions as well as the usual practices I have always put in place and since this virus hit our shores. Time to Unwind will be running unless told otherwise, I will be keeping an eye on the latest updates and keeping myself informed on direction given from the Queensland Government and my association.... Please take the time to read the below information and precautions I will be taking for the safety of clients who visit Time to Unwind and for myself as your practitioner. Please read the attached contact tracing document, if you have been to any of those locations, please stay home to keep the community safe. For added safety, I will be sending out messages to my already booked clients stating that I will have the main door locked to avoid any person from the community to just walk in. This will unsure that you and myself are the only people in the clinic at any one time. After your session and you leave, I will thoroughly clean the treatment space, then I will inform the next client to come up. * If I could ask those waiting for their appointments to please wait in their cars until I send you a text message that the treatment space is ready and you can come up for your appointment. This will enforce the social distacing rules and create added ease, so you can simply relax in my space, which is the reason why you are visting in the first place Hygenie practices at Time to Unwind. Cleanliness is always paramount in my clinic. 1. I regularly wash and sanitise my hands as per my usual massage practice. 2. Change all linen and towels between each client and clean the face rest before and after each client. 3. All contact surfaces including the treatment table and Hicaps machine are disinfected between every session. 4. I always use disposable gloves and alcohol wipes for dry needling treatments at all times, and the acupuncture needles I use are single use and disposed of safely. 5. To help limit the spread of this virus, I ask that you dont come into the clinic if you have been in contact with an infected person or suspected infected person, noted in the attached contact tracing document below. 6. If you have flu like symptoms, sniffles or a cold, please rest up at home and dont come into the clinic, massage is not enjoyable with a stuffy nose anyway. If you feel its just hay fever, please discuss this with me before you book in. 7. Washing your hands is a practice we should all be doing anyway, however, please wash your hands before your massage treatment and afterwards, I have bathroom facilities or hand sanitiser at the reception desk, and I can assure you my hands are washed many times a day, before and after each client I treat. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this time. Maggie Nolan

13.01.2022 Yesterday I treated lovely Rebecca. She had recently had a terrible car accident. She had pressure in her head, whip lash, and tension pain throughout her body. ... When someone has such an intense impact on the body. The nervous system basically is on load, it experiences the stress of the impact. So therefore, massage therapy needs to be given to ease the body, to relax and calm down the highly sensitive central nervous and peripheral nervous system.. Yesterdays treatment for Rebecca included my newly learnt techniques in Access Bars. Followed by gentle massage with warm stones and light cupping, neck traction and stretch techniques.. Finding the right balance for a client is what I love to do.. Rebecca kindly gave me some feedback this morning.. Thank you my lovely friend and it can only get better from here on. Read below

08.01.2022 Our bodies are communicating with us everyday.. As a body work practitioner, I feel, sense, see, hear and heal tension in the body of my clients through manual therapy, massage, strength and stretch techniques, reiki, cupping, essential oils and dry needling. These therapies have been my go to for many years, to assist myself and others. ... To be the best version of yourself is to listen to your body and the messages it gives you, see the signs to unlock the load it is under, the stress, fatigue and deep emotional blocks. When the body talks, listen, investigate and enquire within, access whatever supports you on your path. The journey of self alignment is a powerful tool to gain, to heal yourself. Maggie

08.01.2022 Meditation.. The internal awareness of our true self.. Meditation is a practice I have been giving myself lately.. ... And will continue to do so everyday, 15 mins a day is all that is needed.. To sit quietly and be still.. Its a gift to give yourself.. meditation, turning into our true knowing.. This is where you will find your answers. Sit, close your eyes.. your mind may wonder, and thats ok, just observe, scan your body, correct your posture, feel the sensations in the body, allow them to just be.. It takes practice, and your body knows what to do.. It takes time to be still, the ego doesnt like it, yet its fundamental to our growth.. Be patient, turn in, observe your breath, be still..

08.01.2022 Stretch and mobility is one of the most important things you can do for your body. I love to stretch, and along with my daily Pilates and strength routine, stretch and mobility has been so important for me, especially as I get older! Stretch and mobility doesn't only feel great! ... it hydrates our blood with oxygen and releases caught up stress and strain in the joints, ligaments and tendons. It stretches out our fascia which frees up our body for better range of movement. It's so great! I recommend we all stretch daily. Below are just a few simple, yet effective ways to stretch daily. Stretching can be done before you even get out of bed in the morning! Give your body a break, and some time to unwind from all that built up tension of the day before. And it's a great way to end the day too, while watching T.V get your yoga mat out, create a stretch and mobility routine before bed. It will help you to have a great night sleep.

07.01.2022 Access Bars is a great way to clear the junk in our minds to make way for whats important to us.

04.01.2022 Happy Sunday.. An amazing day for gratitude, love and family connection.. A beautiful card and message to connect to the adventures of life.. ... Follow your dreams, listen to your inner guidance to make the right choice for you, regardless of what others are doing. The law of attraction is our souls desire to connect and attract to the things we want and deserve in our lives. It isnt the mind that connects us to these things, as the mind can bring us to our fearful thoughts, this comes from our true authentic consciousness and knowing that we deserve these things in our lives. Happy Sunday to all, peace, gratitude and fulfillment.

03.01.2022 One of my most loved thing to give is the beautiful energy of Reiki. Its the energy that surrounds us all, energy in every living thing, in every living cell in our own bodies and the bodies of every living thing, animal, plants and organism, we all have an energy source.. Reiki is an energy and experience we all have access too.... We have all experienced it in our lives, with the miracle of holding a new born baby, the energy of being totally connected to another being, child, animal, lover, parent, friend etc.. Universal energy can be felt when relaxing under a tree, feeling the energy of the waves when you are surfing or just floating in the water. It brings calm and peace to the body.. Also, universal energy or reiki can be given by a practitioner, its the same thing as described above, only, the practitioner is in tune or attuned with you on a vibrational level, being in your auric field, and is able to allow reiki energy to flow through them into the person receiving. During this time, you are able to let go of emotional blocks, as you are in a safe place with the practitioner, Or you may just need to relax, let go and soak up the much needed relaxation. Reiki brings great health to bodies.. many diseases stem from our emotional states of being, and Reiki can help release the deep hurt we hold onto. I love giving reiki, as a practitioner, what we give, we also receive.

03.01.2022 The stages of consciousness are ever present, ever changes, evolving, challenging, enlightening, frightening, inspiring, creative, soulful, intuitive, oneness a feeling of connectedness.. Delving into my Emotional Anatomy training, and bringing together all the elements of our human-being-ness.. I love it!... From our triggers, to internal dialogue, to internal questioning and external aspects, the charka system, Masculine and feminine The dosha system and body types, body language and facial reading.. And how our emotions are represented through to our physical bodies.. Its AMAZING.. Today the kids found these star shaped seed pods on our picnic.. I thought the crystals looked great within them to represent to colours and energy system of the Charkas.. Peace and love Maggie

03.01.2022 From the seed, consciousness is born. The RED earth holds the soul essence of a deep human need to grow, and be grounded in our awareness. As we grow in consciousness, our vibration raises up through the earth.. A vibrant ORANGE light awaits us, the creativity of our existence the sensuality our being-ness.. ... Our awareness expands into our collective consciousness and the bright YELLOW ray of sunlight brings meaning and power to our soul.. Surrounding us all, is the mother of nurture, the GREEN nature of our beauty on our planet that resides deep in our heart, grounding us to all of our conscious awareness. The deep BLUE sky surrounds us all, as we collectively voice our expression with the common-union of communication and wisdom.. The unveiling of the INDIGO light of Intuition and transcendence, brings us the images of our inner knowing and self reflection. and as we are witnessing, our unity and understanding, our consciousness is lifted into a higher realm of universal intelligence with freedom for ourselves, bathing in the warm WHITE light..
