About Bernadette

Healing Hands Health and Wellness Clinic, is a registered and insured business with more than 30 years of experience. Owner and expert practicioner Bernadette has supported hundreds of clients through a variety of therapies and looks forward to welcoming you on your wellness journey today.

Healing Hands™ is not just a clever brand name. Bernadette chose that name for her business because so many people tell her that her hands have healing qualities.

She has the perfect combination of experience, certified skills and that intangible quality that really makes a health and wellness practitioner stand out from the average – she is one of the world’s carers.

Her clients will tell you that as soon as you place yourself in Bernadette’s hands you relax, instinctively knowing that you are doing yourself good, and that’s before she even lays a finger on you. She takes the time to listen – therapy in itself – before choosing the best treatment for you.

The Department of Health and Children makes available an information leaflet on complementary therapy (a style of therapy related to our practices) to assist consumers in making an informed health choice – a copy is available to download below.
