Back To Balance - Professional Massage Therapy Fiona Sullivan Dip HSc. (Level 6) Professional Massage Therapist
Therapeutic Massage New Zealand is one of the few countries where massage is not regulated.

Hi there, I am a fully qualified Registered Massage Therapist and graduate from the New Zealand College of Massage with Diploma in Health Science - Therapeutic Massage & Certificate in Relaxation Massage. I am also a member of Massage New Zealand & Kinesio Tape, and Myo-facial Cupping Practitioner. I have always had a love for massage from seeing and feeling the benefits this beautiful modality can provide. Therefore its very important to check your Therapists Professional qualifications before booking in. I am a firm believer in the holistic approach to well being and really enjoy working with my clients to develop a specific treatment plan that best suits their needs and body requirements; whether it is a relaxation treatment to reduce stress and enhance well-being, or a specific treatment plan that addresses chronic soft-tissue dysfunction. I work out of my peaceful rurally located clinic just 4kms from Tahuna (Monday to Friday). I have had great results in working with a variety of clients from professional sportspeople and people with stressful lifestyles, to people presenting with chronic or acute muscular and postural dysfunction. The first session includes a postural analysis, range of movement testing (This determines muscle dysfunction and helps build an effective treatment plan). Home care advice and stretches and strengthening exercises are also provided to prolong the results of the treatment.

A long awaited new modality for the clinic that is proving to be very beneficial. 🔴Infrared red light therapy with EMP (electro magnetic pulsing).

🔴Effects of Red Light Therapy

During red light therapy, tissue absorbs the light, which causes heat. Heating the tissues leads to vasodilation — widening of the blood vessels — which increases oxygen and blood supply.

Some studies demonstrate that the pe*******on of red light also affects nerve conduction, providing pain relief. Others show increases in protein and glycogen synthesis, the stimulation of cell growth, and the formation of new blood vessels.

Electromagnetic therapy is used for alleviating the symptoms and treating different types of health conditions, migraines, chronic pain, tremors, scar tissue, nerve and tendon damage, fibromyalgia pain and so much more.

Today in clinic - a heartwarming moment occurred. I had the pleasure of showing one of my lovely clients the new selection of baby gift baskets, which offer incredible value with items such as knitted booties, a newborn grow set, bib, handmade soft toy 🧸, a kiwi author's kiwiana baby book, flannel, kawakawa cream, and soap. They really are something special ❤️

During our conversation, my client asked if I had any clients who were due to give birth. Funnily enough - I did - 🤰 this kind and generous individual offered to cover the cost of the gift basket for the expecting mother.

Oh wow 🤩 how beautiful is this?

This is just one of the many reasons why I feel incredibly grateful to have the best job in the world 🌏 I have some of the most wonderful clients

Enjoy the basket 🧺 Sarah and baby to be - exciting 💫 👶
And thank you Pippa for being a most beautiful human. 🐣🧸🩷 you really are ❤️

Koru Nutrition Advanced Collagen 500mg Capsules 60

$59.99 each
Special Introductory Price 2 for $79.98

Koru Nutrition Advanced Collagen is a Multi-Action Formula that Targets the Underlying Causes of Thin, Sagging Skin to Deliver a Powerful Firming Effect from the Inside Out
Koru Nutrition Advanced Collagen formula uses proven, lab-tested ingredients to replenish elastin – your body’s “taut-skin” compound – while reducing skin-aging toxins that eat away your collagen and elastin. Koru Advanced Collagen provides powerful anti-ageing support, combining New Zealand Hydrolysed Marine Collagen Complex with Kiwifruit Enzyme, Hyaluronic Acid and key minerals and vitamins to support

Renewed skin
Strong hair and nails
Collagen formation.
12 Key Ingredients:

Hydrolyzed NZ Marine Collagen - Marine Collagen is a type I collagen. This is the most abundant collagen in the human body. As we age our natural collagen levels decrease causing thinner hair, skin and nails. Our formula uses hydrolyzed collagen, which simply means the collagen and amino acids are broken up into smaller units that are easy for your body to digest and use.
Hyaluronic Acid - Studies show that consuming Hyaluronic Acid for at least one month can rehydrate the skin to significantly increase skin moisture, reduce dry skin and make the skin appear smoother
Grape Seed Extract - Grape seed extract has been shown to reduce collagen destruction, improving the firmness, volume and elasticity of your skin
Kiwifruit Enzyme - Most collagen supplements are poorly absorbed due to their molecular size being to big. It was our final breakthrough when a veteran formulator showed me a New Zealand Kiwifruit enzyme scientifically proven to break down the collagen protein as it enters your digestive system, increasing absorption by 150%
Vitamin C - Vitamin C is vital in the production of collagen. Without Vitamin C, the body can’t form collagen, making this antioxidant an essential cofactor in collagen synthesis
Vitamin E - The youthful glow vitamin. Vitamin E stimulates blood flow to the skin and hair, increasing the collagen production, and this causes the skin to glow, firm and increase the volume
Vitamin B2 - Vitamin B2 aids cell turnover and collagen maintenance, which protects the structural integrity of your skin. It also helps to prevent the dryness and improves zinc absorption, another important mineral for skin health.
Biotin - Biotin supports the production of fatty acids that nourish the skin and help oil glands function properly to keep skin and hair hydrated. It also stimulates keratin production in hair and can increase the rate of follicle growth. With a regular intake of Biotin, you can support the health of your hair, strengthen the hair, and add shine to it.
Zinc - Zinc, a cofactor in the production of collagen, plays a vital role in collagen synthesis. This mineral is essential to cell repair and helps protect collagen in the body from damage
Copper - Copper is an essential mineral in collagen production. It is required for the formation of red blood cells, bone, and connective tissue. Copper activates lysyl oxidase, an enzyme required for collagen maturation, which helps to form the fibres that support your tissues. While copper is only needed in small amounts, it is an essential mineral and therefore cannot be made in the body, it must be obtained through your diet
Iodine - Iodine helps the Hyaluronic Acid to regulate skin moisture levels. Iodine supports skin repair. It helps in regeneration of the lower layers of your skin by triggering cellular function. This results into complete rejuvenation of your skin, hair and nails.
Selenium - Selenium (when paired with Vitamin E) boosts glutathione, which helps skin cells replenish themselves.
