Your therapist
Hailey Whiteway
Caring for people has been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. I began my nursing career in 1996, working across both public and private hospitals, and those years shaped the way I understand the body, healing, and the importance of truly listening to people.
After decades in acute care, I felt called to create something more personal — a space where clients could feel supported, unhurried, and genuinely cared for. That led me to expand my skills into remedial massage and lymphatic therapy, bringing together everything I love about hands‑on care, clinical knowledge, and gentle, restorative treatment.
Today, I tailor every session to the person in front of me. Whether you’re seeking deep relaxation, targeted remedial work, or specialised lymphatic support with compression garment fitting or wound care, my goal is simple: to help you feel lighter, more comfortable, and more at home in your body.
Lymphoedema
A chronic condition affecting the lymphatic system
Lymphoedema is a long‑term condition where the lymphatic system cannot effectively drain fluid, causing persistent swelling in one or more areas of the body. It may be primary (due to developmental changes in the lymphatic system) or secondary to surgery, radiotherapy, trauma, infection, or chronic inflammation. Best practice management focuses on a combination of Manual Lymphatic Drainage, compression therapy, exercise, skin care, and education. Early identification and consistent management help reduce swelling, prevent complications, and support long‑term comfort and function.

Lipoedema
A chronic fat and connective tissue disorder
Lipoedema is a long‑term condition involving an abnormal build‑up of fat and connective tissue, most often affecting the hips, thighs, buttocks, and sometimes the arms. It is not caused by diet, exercise, or lifestyle, and typically appears or worsens during hormonal changes such as puberty, pregnancy, or menopause. According to Lipoedema Australia, best‑practice management focuses on early diagnosis, education, and conservative care — including Manual Lymphatic Drainage, compression therapy, tailored exercise, psychological support, and nutrition guidance. These approaches help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support emotional wellbeing. Early recognition and multidisciplinary management are key to preventing progression and improving quality of life.
