Elite Massage is a massage clinic at 72 College Hill in Freemans Bay, Auckland, run by Josip Lilic, who has worked with national sports teams. The clinic focuses on natural health and healing, with sports therapy, therapeutic massage, and treatment for pain, stress and performance. The website lists TMJ jaw therapy, lymphatic drainage, oncology massage, kinesiotaping for swelling and posture, and dry needling for pain. Josip holds a bachelor's degree in neuromuscular therapy and diplomas in massage and sports therapy. He spent seven seasons with the Sky City Breakers and the New Zealand Tall Blacks, and the website says he now works with several elite teams.
