HL Movement & Massage

Massage isn't "just a massage."

Behind every treatment is ongoing learning, clinical reasoning, and a commitment to providing the best care possible.

This September, I'll be attending the Massage Aotearoa New Zealand (MANZ) Conference in Christchurch alongside massage therapists from across the motu. The focus this year is "Pain Management for Self and Others". We will be exploring the latest evidence and practical skills in areas such as persistent pain, the lymphatic system, breathing patterns, fibromyalgia, perimenopause, therapist wellbeing, and how to promote our beautiful profession by writing case studies and research projects.

Continuing education helps me to bring that knowledge back into the clinic to better support you.

Looking after others starts with looking after ourselves too. A healthy, knowledgeable therapist is better equipped to help you move with more freedom, recover well, and stay active for the long term.

If you're a massage therapist or another hands-on health professional who's interested in joining us, I'd love to hear from you. Conferences are a fantastic way to build your clinical skills, connect with like-minded practitioners, and be inspired by the wider allied health community. Feel free to send me a message—I'd be happy to tell you more.

I'm looking forward to a weekend of learning and connecting with colleagues.

Mānawatia a Matariki

When Matariki rises above the horizon,
Our aspirations rise to the year ahead.

Happy Matariki, everyone✨

Change is in the air
Some of you have already heard some whispers...

In early August, HL Movement & Massage will move into a new space, bringing massage and mat Pilates under one roof.

Do not worry, I am moving just around the corner!

🤩

That moment when I say, "And we hold for five, four..."
I know exactly what you're thinking 😄
Are we there yet?

It might feel like forever... but that's often where the magic happens.
Following my cues...quite a long list, I know!

Your job is simple:
Breathe.
Feel it.
and a smile.

Keep showing up, You are doing awesome.🙌
