Aware Self Care has partnered with Therapeutic Massage Group to establish a new wellness community in Melbourne, with gatherings held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. The initiative is led by Carrie Porhammer, Licensed Massage Therapist and owner of Aware Self Care LLC, and is designed to provide a supportive space for individuals interested in learning more about health, healing, and self-care.

“As individuals are taking more personal responsibility for health management, navigating the range of offerings for health, wellness and pain management can feel overwhelming,” says Porhammer. These regular sessions help participants better understand available approaches through discussion, shared experiences, and practical exploration. Topics may include stress management, breathwork, relaxation, and complementary therapies.

In addition to facilitating the community sessions, Porhammer offers therapeutic deep tissue and relaxation massage through Therapeutic Massage Group. Sessions may also incorporate sound-based practices, breathwork, or meditation coaching, depending on individual needs and interests. Her professional background includes massage therapy, yoga instruction, personal training, sound therapy, and Reiki.

Aware Self Care provides in-office services at Therapeutic Massage Group as well as mobile in-home or workplace appointments. For more information, call 321-482-6684 or visit AwareSelfCare.org.
