Story

Hi and welcome to North Canterbury Massage. I offer Fusion & Raynor style massage, and I also offer hot stone massage and gentle pregnancy massage. I work from 2 locations, my main room is my home based room in central Amberley where I am available weekdays 9-3 and evenings after 730 by prior arrangement. My second location is a room inside Holistic Health & Wellbeing Rangiora where I am available Tuesday's for pre booked appointments. Please read below to find out a little about the style of massage I do and how I can help you.

Fusion Massage is combination of Eastern and Western styles put together to create one powerful and effective massage. We
look at the body as a whole, we don’t just treat one area. If a client presents with pain or restricted movement in one part of the body the problem may well originate elsewhere in the body. Fusion massage tracks and then treats the source of the pain giving longer lasting and quicker results. Every Fusion Massage treatment is different, we do not follow a set formula or sequence of strokes, instead the massage is tailored to every individual for every treatment. The results are incredible as tension is eliminated from the body and mind and body are freed from tension and re-energised. A Fusion Massage will probably be unlike previous massages you may have had. If you are new to massage and nervous about a full body treatment*, you may want to start with an upper body massage to give you a taster of the techniques used. The first stage of Fusion Massage is analysis, exploring where the problems are and how deep they are, this then moves quickly into the next stage, excavation - literally digging out the tension that has built up and allowing the body return to a deep state of relaxation
​
Raynor Massage is a therapeutic powerful form of deep tissue massage, this therapy has evolved from a combination of different styles from around the world that include Therapeutic massage, Deep tissue, Acupressure, Ayurveda, Swedish, Hawaiian, Shiatsu Remedial and Reflexology. Raynor massage is designed to find and eliminate tension from the body. I work along the bands of tension which causes the muscle tension to release and as a natural result of this, the muscles relax and the body re-adjusts itself into its natural posture leaving you feeling very relaxed.
​
Because I have been trained in both of these styles I bring them together in one massage, which is normally full body (unless a shorter massage is requested) I use I combination of heat & fascia release work to start and then will move onto either hands or feet and work my way in from there. At your first appointment I will discuss with you how many session I feel that you will need to clear the tension and once you are at a place where you have cleared out the deep set tension, I will suggest a maintenance level massage (often monthly) to allow you to maintain this state.

I look forward to meeting you soon.
