Some Fresh Ink.
If you’re looking to get inked in Melbourne so you can finally tick ‘Get A Tattoo’ off your bucket list, or you just want to add another one to the collection, we’d suggest booking in with HangangTattoo.

Whether you’re after a detailed chrysanthemum, a quirky cat, simple fine-line rose tattoo, inspiring script, or a full, colour Day of the Dead design, you’ll be in good hands with Meck who will ensure you’ll be getting exactly what you envisioned, perhaps even better!

You can choose a design from the extensive collection of designs online, or have a chat with the artist for something more customised. While her bold designs are in a league of their own, we’re living for the fine line tattoos on Meck’s socials, which are so delicate and discreet that the fear of commitment totally disappears.

Tattoos aren’t cheap and the process hurts; that’s why getting one is such a big deal! Tattoo artists are easy to find, but great tattoo artists are like hidden gems, and Hangang Tattoo is one gem we’ve glad to have found!

To Rejuvenate.
We all appreciate that sense of feeling recharged after swimming in or walking near the ocean. Now it seems that exposure to salty air, in the form of treatment rooms packed with blocks of the stuff, can relieve a long list of health concerns, from respiratory conditions to skin issues. Located in Ocean Grove, Pinch Salt & Float is a boutique facility offering just that, with salt and floatation experiences and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

If 45 minutes in a salt room peaks your interest, Pinch Salt & Float promises an experience that will rejuvenate your mind and body as you sit, breathe and relax. During the experience, vapours in the salt room release molecules into the lung airways to release negative ions which stimulate the lining of your airways which can reduce inflammation in the lungs and help to alleviate symptoms of many respiratory conditions, while the powder fine pure mineral salts are necessary for cell function and detoxification which can also improve skin conditions.

If you’re more into floatation therapy, they’ve got you covered there too. An isolation tank, usually called a sensory deprivation tank is a lightless, soundproof tank filled with salt water at skin temperature, in which individuals float. Catering to all preferences, Pinch Salt & Float offers both the isolation pod and floatation pool experiences – and they can even cater to couples appointments if you’d like to float with your beau while seeking a holistic health treatment for the mind and body.

Offering other experiences like Infrared Sauna With Chromotherapy, and Hyperbaric oxygen therapy treatment, Pinch Salt & Float truly is the place to go to free your mind.

To Bring Balance Back Into Your Life

If you’re keen to take a holistic approach to healing with a mind-body-spirit awareness using Reiki, Massage Therapy and Intuitive healing, then The Art of Healing by Monique could be for you.

Using a culmination of energetic-based healing methods, as well as physically altering massage technique-based treatments, Monique achieves what is needed to re-establish peace and harmony back into your life, and assist you on a journey of deeper self-awareness, growth, expansion and healing on all levels.

If Reiki is your calling, Monique practices Traditional Usui Reiki which is a method of energetic healing, founded by Japanese Shugendo Buddhist and Hatamoto Sumari Mikao Usui, and assist with healing on all levels, mind-body-spirit. Reiki re-establishes the flow of energy through blocked areas by removing the blockages, activating the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

If massage is more your thing, Monique offers therapeutic massage can be used to promote balance and maintain internal and external health. Choose between Lymphatic Massage (to encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart), Relaxation massage (if you purely want to bliss out), Aromatherapy Massage (which can assist with reducing anxiety and depression as well as boosting the immune system), or Crystal Healing Massage (which uses crystals along with aromatic massage blends to bring balance into the subtle energies of the body tapping into the chakra system).
