About Leana
My Story
I’m Leana, the founder of Balance by Leana. My journey into massage therapy began with a simple belief: that everyone deserves to feel good in their body. After years of working in high-pressure environments as a Midwife, I experienced first-hand how stress and tension can accumulate — and how transformative the right bodywork can be.
I trained in holistic massage therapy and went on to specialise in the Jing Method, an advanced clinical approach that combines deep tissue techniques, trigger point therapy, and traditional bodywork to address chronic pain and tension at their source.
My Approach
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatments. Every session begins with a conversation about what’s going on in your body, your lifestyle, and what you’d like to achieve. Whether you need targeted work on a specific area or a full-body treatment to melt away stress, I’ll tailor the session to you.
My approach blends:
- Deep tissue and myofascial techniques to release chronic tension
- The Jing Method for advanced clinical bodywork
- Relaxation massage for nervous system recovery and well-being
- Sports massage techniques for active clients and recovery
Qualifications

Why Balance?
I named my practice “Balance” because that’s what I believe good bodywork brings — a return to balance. Balance between tension and ease, activity and rest, mind and body. My goal is to help you find yours.
