From Sophia:
The truth is… I didn’t heal by learning how to help others.
I healed by finally learning how to face myself.
I know what it’s like to feel strong on the outside and unraveling on the inside.
To keep showing up — for clients, family, the world — while quietly carrying a weight no one can see.
To be trauma-informed in theory, but still caught in patterns of self-abandonment, burnout, and emotional overwhelm.
I was doing all the “right” things.
But my body was still holding on to what I hadn’t yet faced.
My Story:
In 2014, I was diagnosed with PTSD after a series of traumatic experiences that shook me to my core. The symptoms were relentless: panic, exhaustion, nightmares, dissociation.
So I did what many of us do – I tried to fix it in my mind. I showed up religiously to talk therapy for two years, and while it gave me language, it didn’t bring me relief.
The turning point came when I experienced Structural Integration and Myofascial Bodywork. It helped me reconnect to the body I had been floating above for years. Suddenly I understood: the trauma hadn’t just lived in my memories – it had lived in my tissues. This work gave me back my breath, my body, my presence. But it wasn’t the whole story.
Healing my fascia freed my physical body, yes. But it was only when I began to truly feel my emotions, not manage or spiritualize them, that something irreversible shifted. I stopped performing wellness and started living from a place of truth. My relationships changed. My nervous system softened. I finally felt grounded in my life.
That’s when Emotional Body Coaching was born.
I believe that emotional health and physical health are not separate.
That your body is not a machine to be fixed, but a map of everything you’ve carried.
That healing is not about pushing through – it’s about softening into yourself with presence, honesty, and care.
Whether I’m working with your body or your emotional landscape, I always begin with what’s here now – not what we think should be worked on. I help you gently peel back the layers of protection, conditioning, and pressure until you arrive at the version of you that’s been here all along.
In treatment sessions, we work hands-on to open the breath, release tension patterns, and reconnect the fascial web of your body – the sensory system that holds the truth of your life.
In coaching sessions, we work somatically to explore what you’re feeling, where you’re holding it, and how to meet it without judgment. We unhook from old stories, shift perspective, and let emotions move in real time.
My work is rooted in nervous system awareness, emotional intelligence, and real-life integration – not performance or bypass.

Putu Kusuma
Remedial Massage Therapist
Putu joined the Muscle Sense team in December 2025. Here’s a little background coming straight from Putu:
Hi, I’m Putu and I am a remedial massage therapist currently treating out of Muscle Sense.
I came into this work because I am genuinely interested in how the body holds tension and how pain is often connected to stress, load, and the nervous system. My approach is clinical, but always guided by what I observe, feel, and hear from you on the day.
Many of the people I see come in feeling tight, guarded, or run down. I often notice shallow breathing, held shoulders, or bodies that have been bracing for a while. I work in a way that helps the body soften, breathe more freely, and move with less resistance.
I’d love to help you move and breathe more freely – I look forward to working with you.
Gigi Lam
Physiotherapist
Gigi is a Physiotherapist.
Here’s a little background coming straight from Gigi:
Hi, I’m Gigi 👋🏻 I consult at Muscle Sense with a mission to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. With a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from the University of Sydney and years of experience across diverse clinical settings, I provide a gentle, client-centred approach to recovery and long-term wellbeing.
I understand that physical recovery is often a journey of rebuilding trust with one’s own body. That is why I prioritise creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment for every one of my clients. I truly believe that real progress happens when you feel heard, respected, and empowered. I value helping you understand the “why” behind your pain by using anatomical models and clear, plain-language explanations, so you can move forward with confidence.
I am also passionate about making care accessible. I provide individual Aquatic Physiotherapy (Hydrotherapy) and mobile home visits, especially for geriatric clients and those with mobility challenges for regular visits. This allows me to support your recovery journey whether you are in the clinic, in the pool, or in the comfort of your own home.
Outside the clinic: You’ll likely find me out for a run, challenged by a complex puzzle, or enjoying quality time with my friends and family.
Languages: English, Cantonese (廣東話), Mandarin (普通話), and Japanese (日本語).
Special Interests: Neck & Back Pain. Geriatric Rehabilitation, Fall Prevention, Aquatic Physiotherapy (Hydrotherapy), and NDIS/HCP Support.
