Natural Vitality Therapies

Natalie started massage by accident, in her early twenties she decided to go and do a short course in massage. This is when she fell in love. From this short course which was only a statement of attainment in Swedish massage, she went on to complete her Cert IV and then a Diploma of Remedial Massage (previously known as a Dip. Health Sci.), all at her local TAFE in 2004-2006. Natalie started this business in 2008, after a short stint of business she then dislocated her knee, and the down time this created meant almost all of her clients going elsewhere. When finally ready to return to work, it was just easier for her to find a job than to rebuild her business. She had worked in hospitality before and had some basic qualifications in the industry and so decided to go there while she sorted out her career. She was soon employed at Lilianfels Day Spa, and stayed there for just over a year, where she completed her Hot Stone Massage certificate, before moving to Spa Sublime, also in Katoomba, where she stayed for 2 years. It was during this time that Natalie completed her Diploma of Beauty Therapy in 2012, and started her degree. After quitting Spa Sublime when she fell pregnant with her first child, she went back to Lilianfels in 2014, now re-branded as the Escarpment Group, meaning she would do treatments at all of their 4 locations, where again she left only when falling pregnant with her youngest child.
