Fusion Flow Massage & Bodywork on Upper Wainui Road in Raglan is run by Therese Hogan, who has 20 years' experience as a physiotherapist. The studio offers relaxation, deep tissue and pregnancy massage, along with biodynamic craniosacral therapy and Chi Nei Tsang, an abdominal massage from the Thai tradition. Sessions run from 30 minutes to two hours, and all therapies use natural, organic and herbal oils.
Deep tissue sessions come as an hour focused on the neck, back and shoulders, or 90 minutes covering the whole body, and the deep tissue work is done by the specialist Etai. Chi Nei Tsang is described as an active therapy that can be uncomfortable at times, and the site asks clients to eat two to four hours before a session. Craniosacral work uses light touch and is described as helpful for headaches and spinal alignment. The site says Therese can tailor massage for current injuries, chronic pain or a health condition, and e-vouchers can be emailed as a gift.
