Nurturing skin body & Mind

Hi, I’m Tamara, and I created Sielu (Skin.Beauty.Wellness.) because I believe everyone deserves to feel nurtured, seen, and comfortable in their own skin especially during life’s challenging transitions.

As a qualified beauty therapist specialising in hormonal skin concerns in the Adelaide Hills, I’ve spent over five years helping women navigate the skin and body changes that come with women’s hormonal life shifts. But my journey to creating this serene space in Mount Barker started somewhere unexpected.

Four Months after my daughter was born I was diagnosed with postnatal depression, anxiety and OCD, I found myself in a dark place where self care felt impossible.

During one particularly difficult period, a nurse gave me a simple foot massage and pedicure, something shifted. For those precious minutes, I felt cared for, present in my body, and worthy of gentleness and most importantly forgot about my difficult situation for a while.

That moment planted a seed: What if I could create that feeling for others?

I pursued my passion, earning my Diploma in Beauty Therapy and working in various spas and clinics across South Australia for five years. I learned advanced techniques, worked with diverse skin concerns, and discovered my calling helping women with sensitive, hormonal, and reactive skin feel confident and cared for.

But I kept returning to that memory of the foot massage. The clinical spa environments, while professional, lacked the warmth and intimacy I knew could transform a treatment from a service into a healing experience.

So I created Sielu, a private sanctuary where advanced skin treatments, spa treatments and ultimate self care are top priority.
