Jean is trained in holistic massage. This is a relaxation massage that follows the principles of Swedish massage. You will be welcomed into a warm, tranquil environment. Jean uses techniques to promote overall health and well-being, treating the whole person. During your initial appointment, you will complete a client intake form. Some of the emotional and physical benefits of holistic massage are:
- Promoting whole body relaxation using soothing touch.
- Increases blood flow and circulation- aiding in self-healing.
- Stimulates lymphatic drainage- helping with the elimination of contaminants.
- A sense of comfort and safety, lasting hours or days after the appointment is finished.
- Removal of muscle knots- leading to reduced pain.
- Stimulation of "feel good" neurotransmitters, such as endorphins.
Holistic massage therapy is different to remedial massage therapy because building and maintaining trust between client and practitioner remains the most important aspect of the therapy. It is this trust that creates the foundation of stimulating self-healing responses within the body.
For new clients, please allow an additional 15 minutes to complete a client intake form. You may wish to discuss pressure and your individual requirements to have the session tailored to your needs.

Rongoā Māori mirimiri and romiromi is part of the traditional Māori healing system. Jean has a special interest in this rongoā due to her own cultural background and the transformational experience mirimiri can provide clients.
With the addition of precious kōhatu (stones), such as pounamu, Jean can target specific haemata (trigger points) where deeply held stress or trauma is being held in the body. Obsidian stones are often used in mirimiri for whakawaka (clearing). Karakia (prayer), as well as wai tai (seawater) is used for spiritual hygiene. Rākau (sticks) may be used for additional support to target trigger points. Some health benefits of mirimiri are:
- Release deeply held stress and trauma.
- "Agitate" energetic blockages of mauri (chi, prana energy).
- Relief from pain and injuries.
- Minimise symptoms of anxiety, depression and PTSD.
- Increased emotional and spiritual resilience.
Due to the transformative nature of rongoā Māori mirimiri and romiromi, clients may experience emotional release. Crying and deeper breathwork/increased respiration is normal and encouraged. Clients often feel "lighter" after a treatment. Post-treatment care instructions will be given to ensure clients feel adequately supported by a trusted and professional therapist.
