Feel Better, Move Freely, Sleep Deeper
Massage therapy at Waitākere Health Hub is more than just relaxation. Our trained massage therapists use a range of techniques to help reduce pain, release tension, and support recovery — whether you’re managing injury, stress, pregnancy changes, or muscle tightness from training.
We take a clinical, integrated approach — working alongside our osteopaths, acupuncturists, and movement specialists to help you feel better and move with ease.
Pregnancy & Postpartum
Pregnancy massage offers safe, tailored support for the unique changes in your body during each trimester. Our therapists are trained in positioning and safety, and can adapt to your needs at all stages.
Common reasons for massage in pregnancy:
-
Lower back or pelvic pain
-
Swelling in legs or feet
-
Shoulder and neck tension
-
Sleep difficulty or stress
-
Emotional release and relaxation
-
A general treat for yourself before you become a number 1 carer.
We also support postpartum recovery — helping you unwind, restore alignment, and care for your body after birth with osteopathy and acupuncutre care.
Therapeutic Sports Massage for Active Bodies
Whether you're training hard, recovering from an event, or addressing a specific issue, massage can support muscle recovery, improve circulation, and prevent injury.
Therapeutic Remedial Sports massage may help with:
-
Muscle soreness and fatigue
-
Range of motion and flexibility
-
Injury prevention
-
Performance recovery
-
Body awareness and alignment
It’s also a great companion to osteopathy, Pilates, or Infrared sauna and Red light therapy.
Massage for Stress, Sleep & Nervous System Health
Massage has powerful effects on the nervous system. For many, it’s an essential part of managing stress, burnout, anxiety, and poor sleep. By stimulating the parasympathetic system (“rest and digest”), massage helps calm the body and restore equilibrium.
Massage can support:
-
Nervous system regulation
-
Insomnia and disrupted sleep
-
Anxiety or emotional strain
-
Headaches and jaw tension (TMJ)
-
Chronic fatigue or burnout symptoms
It’s also a great companion to acupuncture and osteopathy.
