About The Gentle Return

Hi I’m Sarah, a qualified massage therapist, a mother, and the woman behind The Gentle Return.

I’ve long understood the healing power of safe and intuative touch, both physically and emotionally.

But it was through my own birth experience that I came to understand just how important it is for new mothers to have a space where they can be safely held as they move towards healing.

Our bodies are incredibly wise, however we do not always have the tools to access that wisdom on our own.

Through respectful and responsive touch, you will feel deeply nurtured in the comfort of a calm and supportive environment.

My studio is located in my home in Warragul, where I support women at all stages of life.

While my work is shaped by a deep respect for the pregnancy and postpartum journey, the space is open to any woman seeking restorative, nurturing bodywork. Each session is grounded in holistic, trauma-informed care, where women can gently return to themselves.
