Meet Sara
My name is Sara Hothersall, and my journey into holistic massage began over 30 years ago in the UK. I initially studied Beauty Therapy at college, where a massage module sparked something deeper in me — a fascination with wellbeing that never left.
Although I moved away from beauty work, I was drawn back to massage a few years later and returned to college to study Swedish Massage, followed by qualifications in Aromatherapy, Indian Head Massage, Sports Massage, and Warm Bamboo Massage in Manchester and Preston.
In 2008, I emigrated to Australia with my family and began working as a mobile massage therapist, expanding my training to include Hot Stone Therapy, Reflexology, and Lomi Lomi in Daylesford, Victoria.
I later became co-owner of a boutique Day Spa on the Bellarine Peninsula, welcoming holidaymakers year after year. In 2022, seeking a more spiritual and energetic approach to healing, I studied Subtle Body Anatomy, completed Reiki Levels 1 & 2, and became certified in Pure Energy Healing and Crystal Healing through The Pure Energy Healing Academy.
In 2025, I completed training as a Crystal Singing Bowl Practitioner, adding Sound Baths to my offerings — a powerful tool for relaxation and energetic balance.
I am intuitive in my work, and I live a holistic lifestyle. I value mindfulness, connection, and the deep listening that happens when we truly tune in to the body. In my spare time, I enjoy yoga and pilates, both of which keep me grounded and connected.
Shortly after moving on from the Day Spa, I found a beautiful clinic on Hesse St in Queenscliff where I am currently based.
