Our History

The Seahorse Cottage Well Being Centre which was located in the Historical Taylors Cottage, in Graham Street Bacchus Marsh and was the inspiration of Mary Clancy, a well-known and respected resident of Bacchus Marsh.

As a qualified masseuse she was passionate about providing a range of alternative therapies to help people improve their experience of life’s journey. Mary was supported by several practitioners who were already involved in alternative therapies and over the last five years the community has benefited by using this locally available facility.

Juanita (Bugsy) Pearson bought the business and it was relocated to a larger premises on the same street at shop 3-2/4 Graham St Bacchus Marsh.

After roughly five years since the move and with its tenth birthday in the foreseeable future, Kerrie had the honor of being the next owner of The Seahorse. Kerrie Stickle had a dream to enhance what is already a wonderful centre and incorporate her love of books focusing on complimentary health, beliefs, metaphysical and spirituality.

In 2014 I Sharon Shelley, have taken over here at The Seahorse and thank the owners before me for making The Seahorse the special place it is today. While relatively early in my journey I have completed level 2 of Usui Reiki and have now also completed my Reiki Masters, I have studied with Rachelle Charman at the Academy of Crystal Awakening and have completed the Crystal Awakening Diploma. In 2015 I became an accredited teacher of The Academy of Crystal Awakening and look forward to running workshops and passing on this powerful knowledge.

In 2023 we have moved the business to Buninyong, watch this space!
