ABOUT
Healing Hands Wellbeing Centre in Mentone, Melbourne, is owned and operated by Taviene Kessler.
Taviene offers a range of services in tranquil and harmonious surroundings. Whether it's with a Relaxation Massage, Remedial Massage, Reflexology or Reiki treatment, working with Australian Bush Flower Essences or even a Reading, her aim is to support you towards better health and wellbeing.
Taviene herself turned to massage therapy for years to help manage the stress of working in the corporate sector. Massage therapy was also an essential part of her training regime when she competed as an elite-level rower for many seasons. Taviene brings this wealth of experience, coupled with her caring nature, to all that she does.
The name Healing Hands is Taviene's acknowledgment of coming from a long line of intuitive healers. Taviene combines her innate healing abilities with her understanding of anatomy and physiology to provide you with a genuine, caring treatment. After an initial assessment of your physical, mental and emotional health, she will tailor a wellness journey to support your individual needs. The treatment room has the professional standards of a clinical setting, without the clinical feel. It looks out onto a peaceful courtyard and the sound of the bubbling fishtank helps ease away the tension of the day.
