The Hills Who's Who
Public Profile
I love to camp searching for orchids amongst the scrub.
I love the work I do supporting others to empower themselves, it is my greatest joy.
I am a Mum to two gorgeous teenage girls, married to a big hearted Man - we have chooks, geese, dogs and ducks on our hills property in Lesmurdie.
Silverdale Natural Therapy
My work sits at the intersection of body, mind, and spirit. Bowen Therapy is at the core of my practice — a gentle, hands-on technique that works with the body's fascia and nervous system to relieve pain, ease tension, and support the body's own capacity to heal. Alongside this, I offer Flower Essence Therapy, which uses the subtle energy of flowers to support emotional and spiritual wellbeing, and EFT (tapping), a practical tool for calming the nervous system and shifting stuck emotional patterns.
For those wanting more personalised guidance, I offer Flower Essence Readings to help identify what essences best support you, and Baihui Flower Healing Sessions, a unique offering combining energetic and flower-based healing for clarity and calm. For clients ready for deeper, sustained change, my signature program, Free Yourself, is a 3-month journey weaving together Bowen, flower essences, and emotional support tools.
I work with people at every stage of their healing journey — those seeking relief from acute pain, those managing long-term chronic conditions, and those doing deeper emotional or spiritual work. Whatever brings you to my practice, whether it's a nagging injury, an anxious mind, or simply a feeling that something needs to shift, my approach is to meet you exactly where you are and support your body, mind, and spirit in finding their way back to balance.
I offer sessions from my clinic in the Perth Hills, with bookings available online.

Distinguished and Famous people from The Hills
📚 Patrick White
Novelist and playwright Patrick White lived with Manoly Lascaris at Dogwoods, a farm in Castle Hill. The State Library’s collections include playscripts carrying that address, placing the writing life within the Hills district. They left in 1964, and White later received the Nobel Prize in Literature. His archive has a surprisingly precarious history: the library’s exhibition account describes a bonfire of possessions when the pair left Dogwoods. Surviving manuscripts and correspondence make the local connection more than a commemorative name on a public room.
🏍️ Gregg Hansford
Gregg Hansford and co-rider Murray Sayle won the Six Hour Production Bike Race at Amaroo Park, Annangrove, in 1975. It was a memorable result in a career that crossed from motorcycles to touring cars. Hansford later won ten international motorcycle grand prix events before serious injuries ended that part of his racing life. On four wheels he shared the winning car with Larry Perkins at the 1993 Bathurst 1000. The Hills connection is the Amaroo Park victory, with Sayle’s contribution properly alongside his own; Hansford was born in Brisbane. His success made the local circuit part of a sporting story that reached both world motorcycle racing and Australian endurance events.
🌹 Valerie Swane
Valerie Swane helped make roses a familiar part of Australian gardening through the family nursery that moved from Ermington to Dural in the mid-1960s. She became managing director after her father died in 1974, taking responsibility for sales and marketing. The nursery’s glasshouse became a setting for an annual charity fundraiser, filled with rose blooms. Beyond the family business, Swane became the first woman national president of the Australian Nurserymen’s Association, serving from 1980 to 1982. Her books, newspaper columns and weekend gardening broadcasts brought practical horticulture to a much wider audience.
