Clinical Massage Therapy in Dunedin

Within the clinic we have over 32 years experience in clinical massage therapy. Over the years we have assisted many clients ranging from Elite athletes to weekend pavement pounders, office administrators, pregnant mums, the sedentary to the very active. Each of these clients have similar goals, and that is to get their body moving as freely as it can and do so being pain free. Yvette Latta
I established Hands on Health -Latta Massage Therapy in 2005 after graduating with a diploma in Massage Therapy with distinction from the Canterbury college of Natural Medicine. I have been very fortunate to have travelled with the job I love to do which has taken me to the London and Beijing Olympics, track and field World champs in South Korea and Berlin with Athletics New Zealand, and numerous World Champs and World Cups with Rowing New Zealand. Day to day I still get a real buzz working with my regular clients, and seeing our new clients walk out of a treatment more upright and reduced pain. Each year I enjoy attending courses to further my knowledge, and will continue to do so to get the best for our clients. Emma Head
I graduated from the University of Teesside (UK) in 2005 with a BSc(Hons) in Sports Therapy. Since graduating my main focuse has been on clinical massage therapy, helping the individual to recover, repair and learn new strategies to help their body be the best it can be. I am always looking to improve on my skill set. I have additional qualifications and experience in Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Pregnancy Massage and Relaxtion/Stress Management.

And breathe......
That might be a better start

Very pleased to have officially graduated this weekend as a Certified Health Coach. Great to meet other graduates face to face and hear of the work they are doing, and their successes they have had in Health Coaching - Behavior change through lifestyle medicine. Massage will always be my #1 but Health Coaching adds another layer to overall possible outcomes - More to share on that later
Neat to have my two best supporters there too.

Sport Otago has the goods this week, plenty of outdoor activities on offer, and great opportunity to try something new.

Happy Saturday!
Too often I have said no to new and challenging things, surprisingly on this day my arm didn't need too much twisting
Heart rate got a good work out, and sweated up a storm as they slowly cranked the speed up.
Heaps of fun & miles of smiles all round, best form of entertainment.
Physical, social & mental challenges = Growth

02/11/2025

ALL CHALLENGES ARE A CHANCE TO GROW and become more RESILIENT
Physical, mental, social, some challenges will be small, and some will feel much bigger.
Who knew this task would not be ticked off in an arvo
and who knew our team of three would take 1/3 of the D ring changes to fine tune our systems
Ha we eventually nailed it, and trampoline lives on
No instant gratification here 😅
Would we choose to just buy a new mat with the D rings attached, or choose the team building challenge if we had our time again..........who knows, but one thing for sure bouncing on that tramp now feels alot different in many ways 😃
Have a great November and think, where can you challenge yourself over choosing easy.

Mini movement break
Free up your hips and back with this quick wee number, you don't even need to get out of your seat for this, and is great to do if you find yourself seated for long periods as a mini movement break, better still get up go for a short walk, then when you sit down again start with this stretch.
Try for 'full breaths' that move your ribs as you work through this
Tell us in the comments what do you notice when you compare left hip with right hip
Which side feels tighter/harder

To all those affected by Thursdays storm, the farmers, linesman, contractors, those still without power.......
Today is Labour day and tomorrow there will be another day.
Take the time to brew a cuppa and take a moment to think of something to be grateful for
-The roof that didn't get ripped off
-The shed that didn't blow in
-The tree that didn't land on the house
-The cows that finally got milked
-The neighbour that popped around to check on you
-The lives that weren't lost
-The sun that shone after the storm
-Or maybe just the cuppa your holding right now
Big or small its worth noticing what you can be greatful for
The clean up for some will be lengthy & overwhelming -Stay safe
Our thoughts are with you ❤️

On fire these girls!! Congratulations on your awesome results on the World Cup Circuit - so good
