Tucked away in the vibrant coastal community of Glenelg is Healthful Wellness, a women’s wellbeing hub created to help South Australians reconnect with their feminine strength and restore their health and vitality. Healthful is more than just a wellness centre, it’s a space designed to help people slow down, reconnect with themselves, and embrace self-care. Founded by Jackie, the clinic has grown from humble beginnings into a sanctuary for those seeking balance, relaxation, and support.

For Jackie, the journey to creating Healthful Wellness started in a small, personal space, her parents’ back room. "It actually started in the back room of my mum and dad’s house back when I started massaging, and then it slowly evolved over the years to include more of a women’s focus.” Over time, her passion for holistic health deepened, especially as she experienced the challenges and joys of motherhood. She recognised the increasing need for
a space where women could feel supported, nurtured, and truly listened to.

This insight led to the evolution of Healthful Wellness, a place where clients can unwind, feel valued, and explore various wellness offerings. Whether it’s through massage therapy, hormone health support, or infrared sauna sessions, Jackie and her team are dedicated to creating a welcoming and restorative experience.

Glenelg, with its laid-back atmosphere and strong sense of community, provides the perfect backdrop for Healthful Wellness. "I love being in Glenelg due to the community that comes with it. So, we find people come here, they’ll grab a coffee, they might go out for some lunch, maybe go for a walk and it has that really nice slow-down feel to it," Jackie shares.

At Healthful Wellness, the emphasis isn’t just on the appointment itself, it’s about encouraging clients to extend their self-care beyond the clinic. Jackie and her team often remind visitors to make the most of their visit by taking a mindful approach to the rest of their day. "We want to ensure that we sort of say to clients, when you come, make the most of it, go have some lunch, go for a walk, make it a little bit about your self-care rather than
just coming for an appointment."

While Healthful Wellness is well-known for its expertise in women’s hormone health, the clinic welcomes everyone. "Often we get asked if Healthful Wellness is just women’s-base, and we’re like no, bring in the partners, bring in the husbands!" While the clinic specialises in supporting women’s wellness, many men also visit for sauna sessions, massages, and relaxation. It’s a reminder that self-care isn’t just for one demographic, it’s something that everyone can benefit from.

Healthful Wellness is more than just a place for treatments; it’s a space to reset, recharge, and embrace well-being in a holistic way. Whether you’re looking for a therapeutic massage, hormone health support, or simply a quiet moment of relaxation, Jackie and her
team are here to help.
