Massage Aotearoa New Zealand (MANZ) was contacted by a member of the public seeking to verify whether a Massage Therapist was a current MANZ-registered practitioner. During this process, it came to light that the individual had presented a fraudulent Annual Practising Certificate (APC) — a document that had been altered from a legitimate version shared online. The original certificate dated back to 2017 and had been edited to appear current, with expiry dates changed to suggest validity through to 2026.

Any attempt to misrepresent registration or falsify official documentation is a breach of professional ethics and undermines public trust in our Industry. We advised the member of the public to cease communication with the individual involved and we attempted to report and follow up via X (formerly Twitter), where the communication took place. However, the account used to make contact appears to have been deleted before any action could be taken, and we were unable to identify or directly contact the individual involved. It’s unclear whether the account belonged to a real practitioner or was a misleading or automated profile. At this stage, we have no reason to believe this reflects a wider issue within the New Zealand Massage Therapy Industry. However, if you come across anything similar or have concerns about a therapist's claimed registration, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us!

If you are seeking to confirm whether a massage therapist is currently registered with MANZ, we recommend:

Checking our Find a Therapist directory for the most accurate list of registered Therapists or emailing us directly at admin@massageanz.org.nz as not all members share their details online in the public directory, so if you're unsure - we will gladly verify a therapist’s membership status.

We appreciate the vigilance of those who brought this matter to our attention and remain committed to protecting the integrity of our membership and the wellbeing of the public.

As from this week we are pleased to let you know that Pixie Merchant will be offering Reiki from our rooms
Reiki is a gentle, energy-based healing practice that helps bring your body, mind, and spirit back into balance (balancing your chakras). It's all about channeling universal life force energy—the same energy that flows through all living things—to support your natural ability to heal and find peace.
You don’t need to believe in anything for Reiki to work. You just need to be open to receiving. Whether you’re feeling stressed, anxious, physically drained, or simply in need of emotional clarity, Reiki can offer a safe, nurturing space for release and renewal.
Many people say they leave a session feeling lighter, calmer, and more connected to themselves. It’s like hitting a reset button for your nervous system and your soul. 💫
If you’re curious or feel like your energy could use a little love and support Pixie would be honoured to share this practice with you. She is always happy to answer any questions or guide you through what a session might look like.
Contact Pixie on 0211373727 or email her at pixie.merchant@gmail.com make a booking.
(Note bookings can't be made via Elemental Body Therapies

The benefits of lymphatic drainage are widely lauded by professionals and patients alike. It can be administered in a variety of ways to bring relief from lymphoedema, fluid retention, swelling, and lactic acid build up.

That’s why we’ve made this treatment affordable and accessible for as many as possible with our self-administered lymphatic pump!

After learning how to use the pump, you will be able to book a self-directed session to use it in a private room. It’s the perfect solution for anyone seeking regular lymphatic drainage without paying for a therapist every time.

Drop us a message for more information about our self-administered lymphatic pump, or find out more on our website: elementalbodytherapies.co.nz/treatments/self-administered-lymphatic-pump/
