Massage Indulgence is a massage therapist on The Square in central Palmerston North, in The Plaza next to Countdown, holding a 4.7 rating from 69 Google reviews. Reviewers often mention shoulder, lymphatic drainage and pregnancy massages plus a foot spa; one calls her neck, shoulder and back treatment among the best she has had.
Massage is one of those trades where the briefing matters as much as the hands: a good therapist will ask about injuries, stress and sore spots before starting, and adjust pressure the moment you say so. Different styles do different jobs — deep tissue and shoulder work for knotted desk posture, lymphatic drainage for swelling and post-surgery recovery, gentler pregnancy-safe techniques as due dates near. Regulars book shorter, more frequent sessions rather than one-off treats, and speak up mid-massage instead of enduring the wrong pressure.
