ASMRmassagetherapy

A year ago, I was out rollerblading along the waterfront when someone stopped me and asked,

"Are you the lady who does ASMR massage?"

She was in Brisbane from Melbourne for a work conference, followed my page, had seen my rollerblading videos, and couldn't believe we'd randomly bumped into each other. She told me she didn't have time to book that trip, but hoped she could next time.

Well... one year later, she was back for another conference, and this time she made sure to carve out the time to come and see me.

After her session she said she noticed her mind had finally slowed down... something she said never happens. She also found herself trying to guess which ASMR tools I was using and recognising some of them from my videos. That simple act of paying attention kept bringing her back to the present moment.

That's one of the things I love most about ASMR. When your attention is gently drawn to what's happening right now, there's less room for the endless mental chatter. For a little while, your mind gets a chance to rest and your nervous system can relax.

Thank you for making time to come and see me while you were in Brisbane. It was so lovely to finally meet you after our chance encounter last year, and I'm so glad we could make it happen this time. Safe travels back to Melbourne.

One of the beautiful things about ASMR is that it can unlock memories you didn't even realise were still there.

After her session, my client smiled and said,

"That brush... it felt like when you're a kid and your mum gently does this to your face." 🥹

I've heard similar stories quite a few times over the years. A certain brush, a gentle stroke across the face, someone slowly playing with their hair... and suddenly they're reminded of a moment from childhood.

I think that's one of the reasons I love ASMR so much.

As children, many of us were soothed through gentle touch. Being held, having our hair played with, a hand gently stroking our face when we were upset or falling asleep. Those moments taught our nervous system what safety felt like.

As adults, we rarely experience that kind of nurturing touch anymore. But our nervous system doesn't forget it.

That's why this work means so much to me. Yes, it's relaxing. But it's also about creating a space where your nervous system can relax and your inner child gets to hear the same message again:

"You're safe now."

This is a part of my in-person ASMR hair salon role-play experience called 'Crown of Tranquillity'.

This is my exclusive, signature service I created based on those beloved ASMR videos I love watching on YouTube.

I knew I wished something like this existed in real life, so I created it. A world's first maybe 🤔 If you know anywhere else that offers a seated hair salon role-play experience please tag them, I'd love to connect with them.

Does this give you tingles? Imagine experiencing it in real life!

See you soon.

They might look a little silly... but don't underestimate the tiny hands. 😄 🙌

They're actually one of my favourite ASMR tools because they stimulate two senses at once.

As the tiny hands gently glide over the skin, I'm also tapping them together to create the ASMR sound. That means you're not only feeling the light touch on your back, but you're also hearing the gentle tapping at the same time.

In this session, my client also chose the sound of rain as her ambient background, so everything works together to create a deeply immersive sensory experience.

Sometimes the most unusual tools end up becoming the favourites.

Would you give the tiny hands a try?

If you're one of those people who melts at the sound of hairbrushing... this one's for you.

Turn your sound on, get comfortable, and let your mind slow down for a minute.

This is a real in-person ASMR session, so what you're hearing is exactly what my client was hearing during her treatment. Sometimes it's the simplest sounds that help us switch off.

Sweet dreams. 🌙
