Balance for life still closed
Hi my wonderful neighbors
I hope you are healthy and coping.
I have been approached by a few clients if I would be able to see them at level 2 . Some even asked me at level 3. I understand that one can get urgent and even desperate to receive the care, healing and physical touch again which is very much a big part of our holistic massage but unfortunately also the biggest eliminating factor for being possible at Lockdown.
Close contact for 60-90 min in an enclosed room imposes great risks of infection.
The overarching theme within my profession has always been "do no harm", and this is as critical as ever. There are a fair few things that need to be put in place before re-opening my clinic, to make sure I can practice as safely as possible and minimise risk, both for my clients, myself and my family.
Therefore I will stay closed until we are back to level one or other safety measures have been applied.
However, if you would like to discuss an issue or need someone to listen I am happy to hear you.
Much love ❤️

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
