Massage Therapy for emotional health



Learning to let go deeply into relaxation is vital for our emotional and physical health. As an intuitive massage therapist, my role is to feel and free up the blocks to your energy flow. Blocks can manifest as sore muscles, a feeling of being tense within, or have little energy for life.



Working intuitively, I can feel what you need and use the right combination of oils and healing energy to restore the natural flow of your energy. The result is a feeling of being deeply renewed emotionally and physically.

People often say that they feel like they have had a week’s holiday in an hour. This is the result of this very holistic approach.



If you feel like you need deep nourishment in your life currently, a massage at In Essence will support you. Be it with physical pain, or emotional health, it will make the difference.



New client special applies:
$60 instead of $100 – first time only



We look forward to making a difference for you.

Kiwi kids are less fit and weigh more

Anna Williams Reporter from The Press

A study of 500 15-year-olds across two generations found Kiwi kids today are less fit and weigh between 8kg and 13kg more than their parents did.
What do you think is the cause of this - screen time, less exercise, poor diet, or something else?

Our Monarch Butterfly is under threat and this National Gardening Week Kiwis are being called upon to plant butterfly friendly plants to help save the caterpillars when they hatch in Spring and Summer.

Last year saw a national shortage of Swan plants, the main diet of Monarch caterpillars, causing a large number of the population to be wiped out.

Yates is getting behind the drive to avert a similar crisis this year by giving away various free butterfly friendly seeds including Yates new Butterfly Field Mix seeds between 1st and 14th October. Just register here during this time to receive your packet of seeds.

A national planting day will be held on 20th October. Plant a Swan plant or other butterfly friendly plants in your garden, in your neighbour’s garden, at school, in your local community garden – and let’s help Monarch butterflies flourish.

National Gardening Week aims to foster a love of gardening with a focus on growing not only plants but friendships, good health, strong communities and closer connections with nature.
