About Body of Work

A multi-disciplinary wellness studio on Market Grove in central Lower Hutt, where massage, yoga, Pilates, acupuncture, naturopathy and counselling all sit under one roof. The studio is led by director Ali Sullivan.

Massage therapists are registered with Massage New Zealand, and each client starts with an initial consultation covering their needs, medical history and a check of posture and movement. Orthopaedic testing is done where needed. Hot stone massage and dry needling for muscle tension are also offered.

Rehabilitation and exercise therapy are provided by Insite Therapy, led by Tanya Houpt. Classes are kept small, with one-on-one sessions recommended before joining a class. Yoga classes mix movement, stillness, breathwork and meditation. Naturopathy is offered by Tania.

The website says acupuncture gives drug-free pain relief, and that the therapeutic bodywork service works with long-term conditions, from work and life stress to conditions such as Parkinson's and fibromyalgia.

The studio is at 4 Market Grove, Central, Lower Hutt. Our pick in Lower Hutt for someone who wants several kinds of care in one place.
