Edited 6.5.26 - Amber has been given the devastating news that she is too unwell to continue treatment. The proceeds from this raffle will go directly to supporting her and her family as they come to terms with this news and navigate this sad time of transition. We all wished for better news ###

Amber Rose is a mum of four.
She’s strong, brave, and fighting metastatic triple‑negative breast cancer with everything she has. She has now reached the point where all funded treatment options in NZ have been exhausted.

So this Mother’s Day instead of my usual Giveaway, I’m running a raffle instead to help her access the treatment she needs — one that could give her more precious time with her children.

There are three 90‑minute massages to be won.

Tickets:
$5 each
3 for $10
7 for $20

How to enter:
•Transfer to Rowan Westbrook 03-0698-0488326-005
•Use your name as the reference
•Message/DM me to confirm your tickets

Closes 9th May • Drawn 10th May

Thank you for supporting Amber and her family.

This story will hit many of you in personal ways.
Amber is a single mama to 4, her younger 2 are twins at school with my twins.
Her required treatment comes with massive financial costs, thats alongside the emotional and physical costs right now,
She's not ready to leave her children, they are not ready for her to leave them... a donation, any size is a donation of hope and im choosing to hold on to hope for Amber and her family.
Relax and Restore will support Amber with holding a raffle very soon... but time is of the essence so if you can... please give a little 🙏

A Relaxation Massage at Relax and Restore is designed to give your whole system a total pause — a full, unhurried reset.
Row blends Swedish‑style relaxation techniques with her own rhythmic, nurturing long sweeps and gentle, lulling strokes. This combination guides the body into what many clients call “the magic massage bliss state” — that deep, dreamy place where everything softens.

Why relaxation massage matters:
• Supports the nervous system to shift out of stress mode
• Encourages emotional release and mental quiet
• Improves sleep quality and overall restfulness
• Softens muscular tension without deep pressure
• Helps the body process stored stress and overwhelm
• Creates a sense of safety, grounding, and reconnection

If your body is craving calm, or your mind feels full, this treatment is a beautiful way to come home to yourself again.

I recently recieved a booking with a note added saying
'This is for my 9yr old, please advise if you dont accept children'.
I was absolutely delighted to recieve this booking and I absolutely DO accept bookings for children!
Massage can be so therapeutic for children and as a early childhood educator (in a previous life) I am in my element when a child chooses to come Relax and Restore with me!
It is really helpful to have this note added to the booking so I know who I am expecting and also if you opt to pay at the appointment I offer a 20% discount for youth (which ive not figured out how to apply to the online payment option yet!)

Once a term could be great restorative gift for your child!

Tailored Massage at Relax & Restore is a focused massage shaped around what your body needs.
It begins with a conversation. I tailor the treatment to you. Often using a combination of relaxation techniques to fully relax THE body and mind with some intentional sports techniques to support tension release.
This is in no way a deep tissue massage, the focus remains around nourishing the nervous system, relaxing the body and mind and gently nudging the muscles to ease in areas of tension.

If this sounds like something your body needs you can book via my website

or via the setmore booking link at the top of my page.
I look forward to seeing you in my Massage space soon x
