Originally from Karratha, Alex began his sporting career as a competitive football (soccer) player, competing at a national and international level. After successful tournaments representing Western Australia in Sydney and Korea, Alex became the captain of the National Training Centre (NTC) for 5 years. He then moved on and became a squad member of the Perth Glory Youth team, before honing his craft in the National Premier League (NPL) and became captain of Stirling Lions FC.

Louise’s love of movement and competition was fostered early. Growing up as the youngest girl in a family of 4 brothers, being active was key and being the youngest was no excuse for poor performance. She quickly grew to love a variety of sports and competed in these consistently growing up, having difficulty fitting them all in. That is, until she found the gym.
Once she stepped foot in the gym, she realised it was the ultimate form of self development and the place where she was only in competition with herself. Since then, Louise knew that she wanted to benefit others through movement, whatever form that looked like.
Ellie is a walking ray of sunshine, the human version of a Labrador puppy, the real life personification of a sunflower… you get what we mean. She’s one of those people that just feels good to be around and is passionate about helping her clients feel and be the best versions of themselves!
Ellie’s expertise ranges from high performance athletes to Women’s health and Paediatric massage and everything in between! Ellie also provides dry-needling and myofascial cupping to provide thorough care for patients and their needs.
My passion for Remedial Massage Therapy lies in its inquisitive nature and clinical reasoning, allowing me to find the root cause of issues and determine if I am the right person to assist you on your recovery journey.
I have a strong interest in Combat Sports and Strength & Conditioning, which drives me to help people move efficiently and optimize their recovery through sports massage, effective stretching, and joint mobilization techniques. Having worked with AFL athletes (NBFC) over the course of my Diploma, I pride myself on my ability to adapt to different sports and provide a tailored approach.
I am particularly fascinated by pain neuroscience and the treatment of chronic pain conditions. Inspired by chronic pain sufferers in my life, I am dedicated to continually further my knowledge in this area. I believe the best way to treat chronic pain is to thoroughly understand someone’s condition and the unique story it tells.
