Gemma-Lee ~ Principal Practitioner & Owner Brightwater Wellness Hub

Holistic Counsellor | Lifestyle Coach | Business Consultant | Mentor

Have you ever had the feeling that the life you're living isn't quite the one you were designed for?

Gemma-Lee has been sitting with that question — and helping people answer it — since 2017. As the founder of Phynix By Design and the heart behind Brightwater Wellness Hub, she has spent nearly a decade guiding people through the moments that feel too heavy to carry alone: the anxiety that won't quiet, the relationships that have lost their way, the grief that sits heavy in the chest, and the quiet knowing that there has to be more than this.

Her approach is genuinely holistic — combining counselling with meditation, mindfulness, and energy work to support the whole of you: mind, body, and spirit. And here's what makes her space different: she won't hand you a label and send you on your way. You'll work through what you're carrying together, gently and at your own pace, so you can move forward without it defining who you are.

Her formal training spans holistic counselling, life coaching, intuitive spiritual healing, and yoga — recognised through the IICT and HHAI — alongside almost two decades of real-world business experience and formal qualifications in consulting and management. She holds a current Blue Card, approved to work with children and young people in Queensland. That combination of the deeply human and the professionally grounded is exactly what her clients find so rare.

📅 Available Tuesday to Saturday

Felicity ~ Principal Practitioner

Dermal Therapist | Advanced Skin & Body Specialist

What if the skin and body changes you've been navigating weren't something to fight — but something your body already knows how to address, with the right support?

Felicity is a qualified Dermal Therapist with over 13 years of experience in advanced skin health, beauty therapy, and non-surgical body treatments — and her approach is built on one simple philosophy: that the best results come from working with the body, not against it. Her treatments are designed to activate what's already within you, supporting your body's natural processes of renewal, restoration, and repair.

Within our Medi Spa space, Felicity offers the full suite of day spa services you know and love — facials, massage, lash & brow, manicure & pedicure, and spa packages using our beautiful Eminence Organics skincare — alongside her own specialised advanced treatments including HIFU face lifting and body sculpting, RF skin tightening, Bio Needling LED, Plasma Skin Rejuvenation, Laser Lipo, Fat Cavitation, Ultrasound Lymphatic Support, and more.

Every treatment is delivered with warmth, genuine care, and a personalised approach that considers not just how your skin looks, but how you feel in yourself. Because when you feel at home in your own body, everything shifts.

📅 Available Wednesday to Friday with days expanding shortly.

Christine ~ Slow Flow Yoga & Restorative Yoga Teacher

When did you last give yourself permission to slow down — not just physically, but fully?

Christine has been holding space for exactly that for more than 16 years. As a Slow Flow and Restorative Yoga teacher, her classes are an invitation to move with intention, breathe with awareness, and rest without guilt — in a space where there is no rush and no pressure to be anywhere other than exactly where you are.

Her Tuesday morning Slow Flow sessions offer a grounded, mindful start to the week, while her monthly Restorative Yoga class (last Sunday of each month) is the kind of deeply held stillness that many students find genuinely life-giving.

Whether you're new to yoga or returning to the mat, Christine's warm, accessible teaching style makes every class feel like coming home.

📅 Tuesdays 9am — Slow Flow Yoga

📅 Last Sunday of the month, 3:30pm — Restorative Yoga

Desiree (Dez) ~ Yin Yoga & Restorative Yoga Teacher

What if your yoga class could meet you not just in your body, but in your whole experience of being human?

Dez brings over 15 years as a trauma-informed Social Work professional to every class she teaches — alongside more than 300 hours of yoga teacher training. The result is a space that feels genuinely safe, deeply unhurried, and free of the pressure to perform or keep up.

Her classes weave together somatic awareness, nervous system support, and intentional movement to create something more than a workout. Tuesday Restorative Movement classes, Thursday Yin Yoga + Sound Healing sessions, and her monthly Sunday Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra practice each offer their own quality of restoration — and students consistently leave feeling not just stretched, but held.

All bodies, all experience levels, all of you — welcome.

📅 Tuesdays 6pm — Restorative Movement Yoga

📅 Thursdays 6pm — Yin Yoga + Sound Healing

📅 Second Sunday of the month, 3:30pm — Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra (90 min)

Kate ~ Principal Practitioner

Neurological Integration System (NIS)

Reiki | Breathwork

What if the symptoms you've been managing for years have a root cause your body already knows how to fix — it just needs someone to help it remember?

Kate Sawyer is the founder of Blue Sky Mind, and her work sits at a genuinely fascinating intersection of science and soul. Her specialty, Neurological Integration System (NIS), is a non-invasive, science-based approach that works with the body's own central nervous system to restore healthy function. Using gentle muscle testing, an NIS session identifies where the brain has lost clear communication with specific body systems — then facilitates the reconnection. No force, no guesswork, no one-size-fits-all protocols. Just your body, doing what it was designed to do.

Kate holds an Associate Degree in Health Science — completed specifically to qualify as an NIS practitioner — along with certifications in Reiki, Breathwork, and Emotion Code. Her clients include mums navigating the pace of family life, professionals feeling the weight of a high-pressure career, and people who've tried many things and haven't yet found lasting relief.

Twelve years ago, Kate was one of those people. Unexplained health issues, no clear answers, and a discovery of NIS that changed everything. That experience is what drives her work today.

📅 Available Fridays

Lisa ~ Principal Practitioner

Holistic Therapist | Clinical Nutritionist | Wellness Practitioner

Have you ever wished someone would look at the whole picture — not just the symptom in front of them?

Lisa brings more than 20 years of experience and a genuinely integrative approach to every consultation at Sage Healing Holistic Therapy. As a registered nutritionist and holistic practitioner with diplomas in Holistic Therapy, Remedial Massage, Reflexology, and Master Herbalism, her scope of practice is broad — but her lens is always whole-person.

Her signature Personal Wellness Plan considers sleep, nutrition, exercise, and the specific body systems that need the most support, pulling everything together into a roadmap that is tailored entirely to you. Her particular areas of focus include oncology support, autoimmune conditions, and pain management — complex health journeys that require both depth of knowledge and genuine care.

If you're ready to stop managing symptoms and start understanding the underlying story your body is telling, Lisa is a wonderful guide for that conversation.

Peggie ~ Principal Practitioner

Naturopath | Craniosacral Therapist | Herbalist

What if the most powerful thing a practitioner could do is simply help your body remember what it already knows?

Peggie is a Naturopath, Herbalist, and CranioSacral Therapist whose work is built on exactly that premise. Her CranioSacral Therapy practice is particularly distinctive — a gentle, hands-on approach that works with the body's own rhythms to support nervous system regulation, release deeply held tension, and create space for genuine rest and repair. It's non-invasive, profoundly calming, and often transformative for people who've tried many approaches without finding lasting relief.

As a Naturopath and Herbalist, Peggie brings a comprehensive whole-person lens to health — drawing on Functional Medicine, Western and Eastern herbal traditions, and holistic nutrition to support everything from hormonal health and chronic stress to perimenopause and cancer care. Her sessions are unhurried, deeply attentive, and genuinely safe — especially for those who have found other healthcare environments overwhelming.

If your nervous system has been running on empty, or you've been searching for someone who will truly see the full picture of your health, Peggie's care is a beautiful place to land.

Nicole ~ Principal Practitioner

Bowen Therapist

Have you been carrying pain or tension your body just can't seem to release — no matter what you try?

Nicole understands that feeling more personally than most. After a car accident in 2017 left her managing persistent neck pain with regular medication, she worked her way through modality after modality without lasting relief. Then she came across Bowen Therapy — and it changed everything. The relief was so significant that five years later, she completed her accredited Bowtech training (the only nationally accredited Bowen course in Australia) and began offering this gentle, powerful approach to others.

Bowen Therapy is non-invasive and deeply relaxing. Using precise, gentle movements across the fascia — the connective tissue network running throughout the body — a session invites the nervous system to reset, release deeply held tension, and return to a more balanced state. The deliberate pauses woven through every session are part of the therapy: giving your body the time it needs to listen, integrate, and respond in its own intelligent way.

Sessions are tailored, unhurried, and suitable for a wide range of concerns — from musculoskeletal discomfort and chronic tension to stress and general wellbeing.

📅 Available Thursdays

Sarah ~ Principal Practitioner

C-IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist | NDIS Provider | Private Health Approved Provider

Have you ever finished a yoga class feeling better in your body, but wished someone could work with your back, your breath, your nervous system — rather than guiding a room full of people through the same sequence?

That's exactly the space Sarah holds.

Sarah offers personalised, one-on-one Yoga Therapy — an evidence-informed practice that blends the wisdom of yoga with contemporary movement and therapeutic approaches. There's no set sequence and no "one size fits all." From your very first consultation, Sarah works with you to build a practice shaped entirely around your needs, drawing on gentle movement, breathwork, guided meditation, and somatic awareness.

Her path here has been a long and deeply considered one. Beyond her foundational teacher training, Sarah has pursued specialised study in Restorative, Yin, and Somatic yoga; Yoga for Trauma, Anxiety, Depression and Body Image; Yoga for Mental Health; a Post Graduate Certificate in Yoga Therapy through the Yoga Therapy Institute of Australia; Yoga for (dis)Ability; Yoga for Autism; and — more recently — specialised training in Yoga for Bone Health and Osteoporosis, and Yoga for Low Back Pain and Scoliosis. It's this breadth of training that allows her to genuinely meet each person where they are, rather than asking them to fit a mold.

Sarah is a C-IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist with the International Association of Yoga Therapists. She is an NDIS provider, and her individual Yoga Therapy sessions may be eligible for private health rebates through some Australian health funds.

📅 Available Mondays

Britt Mueller ~ Principal Practitioner

Vitality Coach | Raw Food Educator | NLP Practitioner

Are you doing "all the right things" — yet still feeling exhausted, flat, foggy, or disconnected from yourself?

Britt understands that frustration intimately, because she's lived it. After restoring her own health through therapeutic nutrition, subconscious reprogramming, and nervous system healing, she developed an integrative approach to help women reconnect with their energy, vitality, and inner resilience — and now shares that same path with others.

Through her workshops, Britt combines raw food education, NLP tools, emotional recalibration, and mind-body practices to support women experiencing fatigue, burnout, stress, and feeling stuck in their bodies. Rather than another extreme protocol or quick fix, her work is about understanding what may genuinely be draining your energy — and learning to support your body in a more sustainable, aligned way.

Participants in Britt's workshops leave with practical tools they can apply immediately, a deeper understanding of the hidden blocks affecting their energy and wellbeing, and a guided mindset and nervous system recalibration experience to carry forward.

Britt runs regular workshops at Brightwater Wellness Hub, including her signature Energy Reset Workshop — a hands-on, interactive session exploring the hidden patterns that can quietly keep the body stuck, and the tools to begin shifting them.
