After a long career in retail sales and management, Tania decided to follow her dream of becoming a Remedial Massage Therapist. Recognising the need for qualified therapists on the Sunshine Coast, she went on to train in Complex Lymphatic Therapy and Oncology Massage. 


From 2008 to 2019 Tania worked with Oncology Massage Limited in several capacities: Senior Course Facilitator, State Coordinator, Program Management and Coordination, Social Media Manager, Leadership Support, Admin back up and Executive Manager. Meeting students, and seeing first hand their passion for providing safe therapeutic massage for their oncology clients, family and friends, was infinitely interesting and rewarding. 


Tania left OML at the end of 2019 to pursue other interests and focus on her private practice, right at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic… Missing being part of the OML team, Tania’s returned to facilitating, and is excited to once again share the profound power of oncology massage through OML’s Module One and Module Two. 



The management of lymphoedema and lipoedema, chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy, scar mobilisation and range of movement difficulties are special interests of Tania’s. When not working, she can be found cooking copious amounts of food for her family, renovating with her husband and making endless cups of tea.
