Carolyn Sharkey
Remedial Massage Therapist
I created Synergy Massage Therapy in 2005 after completing my qualification in massage, specialising in sports massage. As a result I was able to gain some wonderful experience massaging elite athletes for Collingwood Football Club. This included performing sports maintenance massage on a weekly basis during football season.
In 2015 I completed my Diploma of Remedial Massage and worked in a number of chiropractic clinics. Many of my clients presented with pain resulting from poor posture associated with desk jobs. As a result, I developed particular interest in the area of headaches, shoulder and back pain caused by poor posture in school and the work place.
I am also extremely passionate about woman’s health and wellness during pregnancy. My own baby was born prematurely at nearly 29 weeks gestation with an emergency c-section. Because of this I did a lot of my own research into natural birth after cesarean. I felt extremely empowered being able to birth my second and third child naturally with the assistance of a wonderful Doula.
I now love to empower and assist other woman to feel wonderful both during and after pregnancy through massage specific for the discomforts and stresses of pregnancy.
