   I've been going to Kowhai Massage Therapy for a few years now, and I truly can't recommend it enough. Anna has helped me work through everything from sports and physio-related injuries to stress, mindfulness, and general relaxation. Beyond the physical, her support has also been invaluable in helping me navigate emotional challenges and past trauma. Each session is tailored to exactly what I need on the day, whether it's deep tissue work, calming relaxation, or simply holding space for emotional release. Anna brings a depth of knowledge and care that’s genuinely rare to find. Kowhai Massage Therapy is so much more than just massage — it’s been a vital part of my overall wellbeing.

   Anna is intuitive with both her conversation and her hands. She always makes you feel extremely comfortable and tailors to your individual needs.

   Anna was recommended to me on a local Facebook community page. When I contacted her she replied promptly. I asked for a migraine prevention massage and she expertly released tension from all the places that I needed it. I liked the music and the smell of the massge oil. The bed was comfortable. I will definitely be returning!

   Anna helped me when I was going through alot of trauma and I was under very high prolonged stress. I felt so comfortable, so relaxed, so cared for on her massage table that i actually cried as she released some of the stress that had built up in my body. I love Anna's passion and knowledge of how the body works through massage and how it can release stress and trauma. I cannot recommend Anna highly enough. I have since had massage with other people as i live in Manuwatu and i would love to just go back and sit on her massage table, as she is one in a million. She is truely gifted. Thankyou Anna x

   I just had my first session with Anna at Kōwhai Massage Therapy in her new Larsen Crescent clinic in Tawa, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She is extremely knowledgeable, passionate, skilled and experienced. She takes her role very seriously and you can see the care, empathy and compassion she has for her clients. The best therapeutic massage I've ever had, which is truly wholistic - exactly what I needed for my very sore body and a heavy heart. If you want a safe space to receive the care and love it deserves - book in ASAP. She is one in a million!

   When I was first referred to Anna I was pretty much at my wits end. None of the medications and physio were able to sort the pain I had in my back. Anna showed incredible care and empathy at every visit I have had with her since 2022. She explained what could be possibly causing the pain and gave me options to try. Her massage over the course of my 4 visits was incredible and my pain pretty much disappeared. She is kind, caring and has an incredible knowledge and passion for her work. I still go and see her when I have other pain needing her amazing hands and it still works .. every time ;) Would recommend (and do ) regularly to everyone I know.

   Anna listens to what you need and creates a targeted massage. I have fibromyalgia, endometriosis and PCOS. My pain is always different, and Anna always hits the right spots. Her touch techniques range from deep flowing strokes to holding trigger points and melting “knots” Anna also holds space for me if I need to vent or be silent. Anna is truly a fantastic remedial massage therapist.

   I have been going to Anna for her therapeutic massages for 4 years now for a range of past injuries I have had including knee reconstruction. She is so kind, knowledgeable and most of all makes your feel so comfortable and relaxed. She doesn't make you feel like 'just another number' and genuinely cares about all of her clients. I cannot recommend her highly enough :)

   Anna is an absolute expert in her field. She shows a thorough understanding of physiology and anatomy. And has incredible mastery that allows her to find 'the spot' needing treatment. She listens well and treats accordingly, with great care and respect for her clients. One of the best massages I've ever had. .
