Meet the team behind our amazing corporate massage therapists.

A simple desire to make a difference in peoples’ lives. That’s what drives Stu – it underpins everything he does at Seated Massage, and he’s known for his unwavering care for people and for going out of his way to help someone or support a cause. The Seated Massage ‘ideas guy’ with an insatiable appetite for learning, Stu lives and breathes our mission, showing up every day for the Seated Massage team, clients and community with integrity, compassion and the quiet enthusiasm that has helped corporate workplace massage become commonplace around Australia.

Stu loves to still get out and drop into workplaces and events, spending time and sharing the benefits of professional massage with clients. He says that despite everything Seated Massage has achieved, his career highlight remains seeing the smiles on people’s faces after they’ve had a massage. Recognised as an OG corporate massage therapist, Stu places a huge value on social connections and life experience. His ability to connect with people from all walks of life, from those he meets out and about through to his executive suite clients, plays a pivotal role in his passion for running Seated Massage as a force for good in the world.

Although Stu views Seated Massage as a ‘lifestyle choice’ not a job, when he isn’t at work you’ll find him studying breathwork, trail running in the Adelaide Hills, and dreaming of being in Bali while listening to gamelan music on Spotify!

Lena’s passion for providing meaningful work to the wonderful corporate massage therapists we engage, and authentic relationships with businesses striving to cultivate a caring culture has been central to Seated Massage becoming such a force for good. Having worked in the world of advertising for many years before taking up the challenge of improving wellbeing in the workplace, Lena is a wealth of knowledge for businesses looking to combat the health and productivity challenges that come with long hours, tough deadlines and the pressure that’s prevalent in workplaces of all shapes and sizes.

Lena is warm and approachable, and her understanding of how corporate workplace massage fits in the bigger picture of wellbeing AND broader strategy allows her to help business owners and event organisers efficiently implement the right massage services for their needs. Lena loves that she does something wonderful every day: creating feel-good experiences for people that make a difference, both physically and mentally. Always open to new ideas, and forever on the lookout for ways that Seated Massage can better serve the community, Lena’s dedication to lifting the culture and mental health within the corporate world has firmly established her as a thought leader in the Australian massage industry. 

While Lena gets a buzz from talking to clients and sensing their smiles through their voices as they talk about their massages, in her downtime she’s an avid reader, enjoys discovering new eateries with family and friends, and is currently chipping away at hiking the Heysen Trail, one section at a time.

As the Client Services and General Admin Manager at Seated Massage, Chelsea ensures seamless client bookings, manages administrative tasks, and maintains effective communication with both clients and our nation-wide team of practitioners. Chelsea’s role is at the heart of Seated Massage’s operations, ensuring that every visit runs smoothly and efficiently. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellent service contribute to Seated Massage’s mission to enhance well-being in workplaces across Australia.

Chelsea enjoys being part of a dedicated community that prioritises improving the well-being of others. Seeing Seated Massage’s positive impact on clients and their businesses is highly rewarding for her. She believes that workplace massage is a valuable way to support mental health and well-being on a larger scale. Outside of work, Chelsea enjoys sipping coffees, running, and finding new ways to live a balanced and fulfilling life.

If chair massage certification ever becomes available for doggos, you can bet that Poppy would start doing zoomies and be first in line. As a lap-dog extraordinaire, this would be right up her alley! 

Poppy’s a fluffy ball of cute and calm in the Seated Massage HQ, and loves spending her day working with (*ahem* sleeping on the lap of) her favourite human, Lena while she talks to clients. 

As a rescue dog, Poppy pays it forward bringing unbridled joy, peace and unconditional love to her family and any human who has the good fortune to meet her.
