Health and Soul Massage Therapy
Shelley Northrop
Remedial Massage Therapist | Remedial Massage, Pregnancy and Fourth Trimester Massage | Vibro-Acoustic Nervous System Support
After leaving the corporate world in search of something more meaningful, Shelley discovered her passion for helping others through massage therapy. What began with an introductory massage course quickly became a calling, and after welcoming three children and relocating to the Central Coast, she established her own practice.
With more than seven years of experience, Shelley remains deeply passionate about supporting her clients to feel, move and function at their very best.
Working with a wide range of clients, Shelley has a special interest in complex and persistent muscular concerns, as well as pregnancy and postnatal care. Taking a whole-person approach, she looks beyond the area of discomfort to understand how movement, stress, lifestyle and the body's natural rhythms may be influencing the way you feel.
Every treatment is thoughtfully tailored to what your body needs on the day, combining skilled remedial massage techniques with nervous system support to reduce tension, restore balance and help you feel more comfortable, connected and confident in your body.
Shelley works out of The Village Collective every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

A Little More About Shelley
“I’m a busy mum of 3 boys aged, 6, 8 & 9 who keep me on my toes - always, so I understand how easy it is to put your own needs at the bottom of the list while caring for everyone else. But I also know and have to keep reminding myself that self-care isn’t selfish.
By taking the time to rest, reset and care for my mind and body it allows me to move through family life feeling more balanced and present.”
