11/11/2025

Hey guys! I just wanted to jump on and do a little spiel about the effect massage therapy has on mood...

👉 Massage can help calm the mind and reset the brain. It promotes feelings of positivity and happiness - particularly helpful in times of stress and for those suffering from depression or anxiety....but how? 🤔
..Well, massage stimulates the production of our happy chemicals - Oxytocin, Serotonin, Dopamine and Endorphins - by around 30%!! ✅️ That is absolute magic for the nervous system 🤗

👉 Also, massage improves sleep quality - both getting to sleep and staying asleep - through increasing circulation, lowering our heart rate and relaxaing our muscles...and quality sleep helps lift the mood, among a myriad of other benefits 😴😴😴🙂

✅️ I have 25 years experience and offer Therapeutic, Deep Tissue, Trigger-Point Release, Relaxation, Reflexology, Lymphatic Drainage and Pregnancy Massage treatments.

🌞🌞🌞😁 IT'S TIME!! 😁🌞🌞🌞

🌞 MANGO BUTTER SUN SHADE SPF30 🥭

🌞 Discover the ultimate fusion of a moisturiser and sunscreen with Savvy Touch Mango Butter Sunscreen SPF 30.

🥭 Experience the goodness of Mango Butter, renowned for its super hydrating properties, complemented by the natural healing benefits of Calendula & Active Manuka Honey.

🍯 Is it a moisturiser with sunscreen, or a sunscreen that moisturises? You be the judge.

🌼 I use this as a day cream all year round. A beautiful light but hydrating formula that absorbs fast and doesn't leave my face looking like an oil slick, or leave a white cast like some natural sunscreens. It's also a sunscreen that my kids enjoy using 😊

✅️ 250ml $39

🌞 Please get in touch via Messenger or phone/text 021 032 9543 with any queries, or to purchase 😊

Wishing you all a magical day ~ Ali Thurston N.D 🌿😊

✨️ MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE ✨️

🧐 WHAT IS MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE?

👉 Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a very gentle massage in which you stay fully clothed. I use very light, specific hand movements to gently manipulate the skin, which stimulates the initial lymph vessels just beneath the surface.

This stimulates the Lymphatic system to increase it's pulsations, which helps move lymph fluid, waste, and toxins away from the tissues and back into the Circulatory system.

🤔 WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE?

👉 Reduces swelling (Oedema)
👉 Supports post-surgery recovery
👉 Boosts immune function
👉 Recommended for those with Lymphedema or Lipedema
👉Helps improve symptoms for many people suffering from all kinds of chronic health issues/disease
👉Supports overall wellness. Many people say they just feel "better" when they have regular treatments.

🤔 HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE A TREATMENT?

This depends on the individual. For Oedema/water retention/swelling, weekly treatments are usually needed to be effective. For overall wellness I'd recommend at least monthly.

We're all individuals who respond differently to treatments, and you get to know how regularly works for you.

🧐 WHAT DOES A TREATMENT COST?
$50, and they take about 30 minutes. Your first treatment is discounted to $40. Please see the pinned post on my page for info on groups who receive discounted rates, and my loyalty scheme.

✅️ HOW DO I BOOK A MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE TREATMENT?

Kia Ora everyone! I hope you're all having a great week 🤗

I quite often have massage clients asking if I sell the massage oils I use in my treatments - the answer is ✅️YES!

💥THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE OIL💥
$17.40 250ml

I formulated this blend many years ago and have been using it in my clinic with great results ever since. It's an absolute hit with my clients 🙌 it's full of anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, regenerating and circulation-boosting goodness. And it smells divine - if you've ever had a therapeutic massage with me you'll know what I mean 😆 there are also three other local massage therapists using this blend in their clinics! 😊

🌿 The Therapeutic blend has a Sweet Almond Oil base, and also contains Castor Oil to carry the essential oils deep into the tissue for maximum therapeutic benefit. It contains the following seven essential oils:
👉Black Pepper
👉Lavender
👉Eucalyptus
👉Ginger
👉Wintergreen
👉Lemongrass
👉Peppermint

✅️ Whether you're a fellow massage therapist and would like a fantastic oil to use in your clinic; or would just like to have a great therapeutic massage oil to use at home between professional treatments, this is the oil for you.

💥LAVENDER MASSAGE OIL💥
$15.40 250ml

🪻Lavender is considered to be the most versatile of all the essential oils, and is also the safest - this massage oil is safe for most people to use, including pregnant women. (I do not recommend massage until after the first trimester). This is a simple formula containing just Sweet Almond oil and Lavender essential oil. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Lavender is PURE RELAXATION 🤗 Other issues Lavender helps relieve include:
👉Insomnia
👉Anxiety
👉Stress
👉Pain and inflammation
👉Headaches
👉PMS
👉Nervous tension

✅️ If you'd like to purchase either of these oils or have any queries please message me or phone/text me on 021 032 9543.
