ABOUT THE STUDIO

A calm space in Brookvale, built around the people who walk in

The Health Studio Brookvale is run by Vaughan Hay and Stephanie. Five services, all under one roof, all delivered by hand.

Why we are here

The Health Studio Brookvale opened because the Northern Beaches needed a place that treated people, not symptoms. Most clinics run on the clock. You get 30 minutes, you leave with a worksheet, you book the next slot. We wanted to build something different.

From day one, the rule has been simple: every session is one-on-one, every client is a person not a number, and every recommendation has to actually help. If something we do is not working for you, we will say so and adjust the plan. If we are not the right fit for what you need, we will tell you that too and point you somewhere better.

We are proudly local. Most of our clients come from Brookvale, Dee Why, Manly, Freshwater, Curl Curl, Narrabeen, Collaroy, and Beacon Hill. We see the same faces every week, and we love that.

Vaughan Hay portrait

Vaughan Hay

Vaughan is a registered remedial massage therapist with training across deep tissue, trigger point, dry needling, myofascial cupping, sports-specific work, and pregnancy-safe positioning.

He started The Health Studio because the bodies he kept seeing in clinic deserved more than a quick rub-and-stretch. His sessions are focused, deliberate, and built around what is actually going on with you, not around a generic treatment template.

Outside the studio, you will find him in the surf, on the trails, or with his family.

Stephanie coaching a reformer Pilates session

Stephanie

Stephanie runs the reformer Pilates and Nurtured by Steph programs. She holds qualifications in reformer Pilates with specific training for pre and postnatal clients.

Her style is calm, grounded, and encouraging. New mums tell us they finally feel safe moving again. Pregnant clients tell us they feel held through the changes their body is going through.

When she is not in the studio, she is usually at the beach, with her own family, or quietly recommending a good local cafe.
