LAURA DE LAS HERAS

Massage services and styles include dry needling and lymphatic drainage massage, pregnancy massage, remedial massage and hot stone massage.

Laura is originally from Spain. She has been living in Cairns for 5 years and has been a massage therapist for more than 3 years. Laura started in the beauty industry but soon wanted to learn more and have a deeper knowledge about the body and how to take care of it. In 2021 she studied remedial massage and since then she has continued her learning of new techniques. She offers clients a range of massage services and styles, including dry needling and lymphatic drainage massage, pregnancy massage and remedial massage. She also enjoys offering hot stone massage as she knows the physical benefits of it, as it can access the nerve system though the heat, helping the muscles to relax and fight stress.

Since childhood, Laura has been active in football and swimming, most recently she enjoys calisthenics and yoga. She is a great fan of music, dance and good food.

Please note: Laura works Tuesday – Wednesday – Thursday.
