Massage and Bowen Therapy is a practice at 24 Croft Terrace in Huntly, Waikato, that focuses on the whole body. It began with Bowen therapy, which the therapist first offered to friends and family, and later added massage training so it could help a wider range of people. The Bowen technique uses gentle, selectively placed moves on the soft connective tissue, with no forceful manipulation. The practice says Bowen is suitable for everyone from newborns to older people.
Treatments include Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, post-workout and pre-event massage, pregnancy massage, and hot stone massage. Shorter options are a 15-minute back, neck and shoulder massage and a 15-minute feet massage, with a choice of oil or wax. There is also a 90-minute massage and a facial massage. Body scrubs, including coconut and brown sugar scrubs, can be chosen with an essential oil, and the oils should be noted in the booking.
Bookings are made through the practice's online booking system. The therapist holds a certificate in myofascial release and offers ongoing care to help clients stay free of pain.
