Meet Alexandra
Hi, I'm Alexandra, founder of Balance Up.
If there's one thing that's always been true about me, it's that I've never accepted things simply because "that's how they've always been done." I've always questioned life, searched for deeper meaning and wanted to understand why things are the way they are.
Looking back now, I can see that this curiosity has guided every step of my journey.
Movement came first. Growing up, my dad inspired my love of being active through skiing, snowboarding, tennis, the gym and many other sports. Later, after moving to Australia, I became a Personal Trainer.
Then Reiki found me.
At the time, I knew very little about it, but something inside me simply knew I needed to learn it. I couldn't explain why—I just trusted that feeling.
Massage came afterwards. Originally, I thought it would simply complement my fitness background, but it quickly became one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. Today, I can't imagine helping people without it.
When I look back now, none of it feels accidental. Every experience led me to the next until I realised they were never separate paths. They were all guiding me towards the same purpose.
That purpose became Balance Up.
How Balance Up Was Created
I didn't create Balance Up because I wanted to own a wellness business.
I created it because I believe life can be hard, and I believe every person deserves the opportunity to experience more peace, more joy and more balance.
I've seen how easy it is for people to lose themselves in stress, responsibilities, pain and the busyness of everyday life. We spend so much time surviving that we often forget what it feels like to truly live.
My vision was to create a space where people could slow down, reconnect with themselves and remember who they are beneath all the noise.
For me, massage, movement and Reiki have never been separate services. They are simply different ways of helping people return to themselves.
Every person is different, and every healing journey is different. Sometimes the body needs support. Sometimes it's the mind. Sometimes it's the spirit. My role is to meet people where they are and support them with what they need most in that moment.
Balance Up was created to help people reconnect with themselves so they can live healthier, happier and more balanced lives.
My Philosophy
I believe we all come into this life with a purpose.
Life has a way of pulling us away from who we truly are. Stress, pain, grief, fear and the demands of everyday life can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves. When that happens, we often lose sight of our peace, our joy and the light that's always been within us.
I believe my purpose is to help people reconnect with themselves, because when we reconnect with ourselves, we naturally reconnect with our own light.
My own spiritual journey has shaped the way I see healing. For me, Reiki is God's love expressed as energy, and it is an incredible honour to be a Reiki practitioner and channel that love in service of others. I don't expect everyone to share my beliefs, and that's okay. What matters most to me is creating a space where every person feels safe, supported, understood and accepted exactly as they are.
Whether someone comes to see me for massage, Reiki or personal training, my intention is always the same.
To help them reconnect with themselves.
To feel healthier.
To feel stronger.
To find more peace.
To leave feeling lighter than when they arrived.
Because I believe we weren't created just to survive life.
We were created to truly live.
