Clare began her massage journey in 2018 by helping two of her loved ones in their end-of-life phase. This was a deeply changing experience to be able to help ease this difficult time with massage therapy.
Clare holds a Diploma in Remedial Massage Therapy; this includes Relaxation, Lymphatic Drainage, Sports and Pregnancy Massage. Remedial Massage includes treating tension-associated ailments such as soreness and aching in the neck and shoulders, back, legs, and chronic issues such as RSI in the hands and arms.
Massage can be helpful for arthritis, sciatica and other pain management conditions including moving the flow of lymph fluid when the lymphatic system has been compromised. Massage is a wonderful way to aid in relaxation, and can provide a deeply enjoyable experience!

Comments from guests:
“100% – we really embraced the place. The most amazing thing is the setting, waking up early to the beautiful large trees surrounding the bower, being able to put on a log fire and make a simple breakie on the bbq was absolutely bliss. The optional cheese platter, hamper and massage service really helped us recharge. We would have just loved another day or two. While the two days was not enough to fully recharge, it definitely gave us a taste to come back and a boost to keep going”. Laura & David.
“A very calming effect (slowly recovering from anxiety and depression). Would have loved to stay longer.” Name supplied.

In the meantime, on request when you book, we’ll amend your ETA to 3 pm at no extra cost. We will then ask our team to get your Bower ready as soon as possible on the day.

Increasingly, over the years, our guests [and even those who have kids of their own] have said to us ‘The Bower is a place for us to escape from the kids and everybody else’s kids !’.
We can, however, recommend some excellent kid-friendly alternative accommodation options. We can even recommend a local babysitter who can give you ‘child-free’ nights [at least] while you’re staying at The Bower.
In saying that, for those with infants, [in arms], we appreciate they’re a bit difficult to separate from their mum so as long as you have their own portable cot/bassinet and other required equipment, etc. we are quite happy to give Mums with a ‘babe in arms’ a break at The Bower.
