International Instructor
In 2022 I was appointed as an International Instructor for Australia to teach McLoughlin Scar Tissue Release®. Since then my colleague and I have run over 40 workshops, refresher clinics, online classes and mentor sessions to over 190 students.
In 2025, I was appointed as one of four International Instructors for Art Of Bodywork training. We will be launching this 2 days workshop in 2026 teaching myofascial release techniques to professional health and allied health practitioners.
As an MSTR® International Instructor and practicing scar-tissue specialist based in Melbourne, I’m dedicated to advancing the way practitioners and clients understand the true impact of scar tissue. My work focuses on raising awareness, improving clinical outcomes, and building practitioner confidence in recognising and treating scar tissue effectively.
My purpose is to work alongside practitioners and clients, reshaping the way we understand scar tissue and its influence on movement, recovery, mental health and whole-body wellness.
With extensive hands-on experience and a passion for education, I’ve become an advocate for evidence-informed scar-tissue care in Australia. Through teaching, workshops, presentations and clinical practice, I highlight how scar tissue is far more than a surface-level change — it can influence biomechanics, posture, emotional patterns, neurological function and long-term recovery.
I support:
Practitioners integrating MSTR® into their treatment framework
Clinics and multidisciplinary teams seeking better outcomes for patients with surgical or traumatic scars
Clients wanting to reduce discomfort, restore mobility and understand how their scars may be affecting them
My mission is to cultivate a strong and informed MSTR® community across Australia, elevate the national conversation around scar-tissue impact, and ensure more people receive care that acknowledges the full influence scars can have on the body.
In 2025 my colleague Peta Lock and I were appointment international Instructors in Australia and the southern hemisphere for Art of Bodywork.
This unique training program incorporates 19 myofascial release techniques designed by Alastair McLoughlin to address structural dysfunction from common clinical presentations including:
rotated illium
pronated foot
piriformis syndrome
shoulder abduction
lower back pain
respiratory issues
scoliosis
and so much more.
In 2026 we are introducing Art of Bodywork Levels 1 and 2 as a 2 days live workshop.
