GIVE Therapies is a remedial massage practice on High Street in Motueka, in the Tasman region. The practitioners work with manual therapy and advice, and they treat everything from the everyday tightness and niggles that come with desk work or long days on the feet, to injuries from strain and trauma, and burnout. A remedial massage is shaped around the client: it may combine several techniques, and the practitioner will suggest what suits, but clients can ask for a particular technique when they book or when they arrive. Customers who have been seeing the practitioner for a year or more describe her as skilled, professional and caring. They say she listens closely to what the body needs and gives clear advice on injuries, and that she works through them until the problem eases. One regular client describes the sessions as helping both physical and emotional wellbeing. Motueka is an orchard and hop-growing town, where many people do physical work and carry the strain that goes with it, so a practice that deals with injury as well as everyday tension suits the area. The clinic is at 354 High Street.
