Who we are and how we work

“The moment I place my hands on someone, I forget everything I know — because if I go looking for something specific, I might miss what’s really there.”

— Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen

 

Hi, I’m a qualified massage therapist with a Diploma in Health Science (Level 6) from the New Zealand College of Massage, specialising in Therapeutic and Remedial Massage.

That means I don’t just rub where it hurts — I assess what’s tight, what’s weak, what’s overworking or underperforming, and how your muscles are playing tug-of-war with your posture, movement, and overall wellbeing.

Think: trigger points, fascia release, muscle balance — and a holistic blend of East meets West. Whether you need a deeply relaxing reset or targeted pain relief, I tailor each treatment plan to your individual needs.

At Dawn 2 Dusk, I work with everyBODY (yes, yours too!) to shift you from “ouch” into “ahhh” — aiming to get you into a maintenance phase, because let’s be honest: prevention is way cheaper than rehab.

I’m constantly upskilling, and I currently share that passion as a part-time tutor at the New Zealand College of Chinese Medicine (2025) — because learning never stops when you’re fascinated by the human body.

As an active person, I live by the motto: “use it or lose it.” So if mobility, wellness, and quality of life matter to you — let’s work together to keep you moving, feeling, and functioning at your best.

And lastly? I love what I do, and it shows.

Come feel the difference — your body will thank you.
