A massage and body treatment business on a private property at 420 Takatu Road, a short drive from Matakana township. The treatments run from relaxation to deeper work: hands-on, results-driven massage, restorative healing touch for relaxation and tension release, and a session built to support nervous system regulation and energy balancing. The menu also includes clean beauty facials that combine face sculpting, First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand, guided meditation and a range of mini add-ons. Treatments take place in the Little Takatu Studio, a quiet room with views, oak floors and white walls, and a 30-minute pre-treatment warm-up is recommended. A full spectrum infrared sauna and ice bath sit in a separate space behind the studio, with their own parking and private access. The sauna seats two or three people comfortably, and its bookings are handled as a separate business.
Customers describe the massage therapist as exceptional, knowledgeable about the body and holistic in her approach. One says the work went deep into the muscles that needed it, and another says the studio is a beautiful escape where stress gives way to calm. Several say they leave feeling lighter. The studio's quiet setting on a private property with views is part of the appeal. Our pick in Matakana for a quiet massage followed by a sauna.
