Meet Claire.

Massage therapist. Stretch specialist. Body movement educator. Nervous system whisperer. Claire Shirra helps people come back into their bodies in a way that feels safe, empowering, and effective.

Claire’s career in holistic movement-based bodywork therapy began over 15 years ago, having worked across Australia and New Zealand.

Registered remedial massage therapist (Level 6), additionally qualified in dry needling and Stretch TherapyTM. Her approach blends clinical training with a grounded, human-to-human experience. With over 15 years of experience, she’s worked with hundreds of clients, from desk-bound professionals to active retirees to people navigating recovery or burnout.

An active student of the Stretch TherapyTM approach to stretching and flexibility, training since 2011, where she was searching for solutions to further assist her clients to develop better body awareness.

What Claire Believes:

• Every body is different, and every body holds wisdom.

• Tension isn’t just physical; it’s emotional and energetic too.

• Movement and bodywork can be deeply healing.

• Listening is just as important as technique.

Claire Outside the Clinic: When she’s not working with clients, you might find Claire hiking in nature, geeking out over fascia research, or refining her Stretch Therapy classes to make them even more accessible.

"Claire has a gift. She treats the body, yes—but also the person inside it."
