Hello! I’m Samantha Ashley, a dedicated and passionate Bowen Therapist with a holistic approach to health and well-being. My journey began with my own battle against chronic pain, trying countless therapies with little success until I discovered the Bowen Technique. After just three treatments, my pain was gone, and my life was back on track. This transformative experience inspired me to help others find their path to healing.
With a background in Massage, Naturopathy, and Nutrition, I integrate my knowledge of these disciplines to offer a comprehensive approach to wellness using what i consider to be one of the truly holistic therapies. While I focus on the health needs of all members of our community from babies to teens, adults and the elderly providing personalized care for all stages of life,
I have a keen interest in supporting women’s health, especially during the menopausal transition.
My goal is to support and empower women to navigate this stage of life with confidence and vitality, through the physical, emotional and mental health challenges they face. I offer compassionate and effective holistic treatments that support balance, relaxation, and overall wellness
Becoming a qualified Bowtech Bowen Trainer and Assessor (Certificate IV and Diploma) with Bowen Training Australia RTO#41134, also allows me to share the knowledge of this powerful therapy with others who wish to become practitioners. Currently, I serve as Vice President of the Bowen Association of Australia and as a Chair on the Bowen Training Australia Committee.
I look forward to guiding you holistically on your journey to better health and well-being on the Gold Coast.

Hello! Im Matthew Thurgood, a dedicated Bowen Therapist and lifelong sports enthusiast with a deep love for surfing, waterskiing, and rugby union. I understand first-hand the toll that injuries can take on both the body and mind. My journey through these sports has not only shaped my passion for men's health but has also equipped me with invaluable insights into recovery and rehabilitation.
Having faced and overcome numerous injuries myself, I turned to Bowen Therapy as a natural and effective method to restore my own health. After my first treatment I noticed a massive improvement in my overall pain and over time Bowen Therapy has kept my health on track and my ability to continue doing the physical activities I love a reality. This personal experience with healing sparked a profound interest in helping other men navigate their own paths to recovery and wellness, and with that I trained to become a qualified Bowtech Bowen Therapy practitioner.
While I focus on the health needs of all members of our community from babies to teens, adults and the elderly providing personalized care for all stages of life, I have a keen interest in supporting mens health.
My mission is to support men in achieving optimal health through tailored Bowen Therapy sessions, addressing both acute and chronic conditions with care and precision. Whether you're recovering from a sports-related injury or seeking to improve your overall well-being, I am here to guide you on your journey to a healthier, more active life, enhancing not only your physical but also your mental health, and promote recovery with confidence and overall vitality on the Gold Coast

You can be confident that the prenatal massage you receive at Green Valley will be done by a suitably trained prenatal massage specialist, ensuring the safety and comfort of both you and your baby.
