Nelson Services

Initial Appointment 75min

1 hr 15 mins$100

Initial Appointment 90min + Intake

1 hr 45 mins$140

Therapeutic Massage 60min

1 hr$100

A combination of techniques from relaxation massage, deep tissue massage, pressure point bodywork and myofascial release therapy can be used to create a state of deep relaxation and balance. In this state, the body is able to draw on its own self-healing abilities and to rebalance and recalibrate. Mind and body are assisted to unwind and let go of what is no longer needed. This may also assist with addressing physical pain, longstanding / chronic presentations and recovery from injury.

Each treatment is tailored to your individual needs which will be discussed initially.

Therapeutic Massage 90min

1 hr 30 mins$140

Myofascial Release Therapy 60min

1 hr$100

During a myofascial release therapy session, you will experience a range of slower soft-tissue strokes engaging with the fascial layers, which releases adhesions in your body and creates a space of deepest relaxation. Myofascial Release Therapy addresses attachments within the body, restricted movement, structural and postural dysfunction and restrictions in the flow of energies in your system. It is highly effective for chronic pain, referred pain and restricted circulation. It is also used to work with scars and scar tissue to release physical and emotional attachments and to bring the previously disconnected areas of the body back online.

Myofascial Release Therapy 90min

1 hr 30 mins$140

Fascial Unwinding 60min

1 hr$100

This profound modality invites you on an inward journey to facilitate the release of deep-seated holding patterns from the inside out. Using a gentle touch and intuitive, supportive holds, this work engages directly with the fascial network to address not only physical restrictions, but also the stored tension, cellular memories, and emotional consciousness that certain areas of the body hold. By working at this deeper level, we can initiate meaningful shifts across both your physical and emotional well-being.

By deeply activating the parasympathetic nervous system, this therapy supports the body’s innate wisdom and self-regulating capacity to restore health. It is an exceptional approach for those navigating anxiety, chronic stress, brain fog, migraines, or persistent pain patterns that have remained unchanged by traditional treatment methods.

To allow for maximum comfort and freedom of movement during these subtle structural shifts, this treatment is performed fully clothed. Please wear loose, non-restrictive clothing.

Headspace

45 mins$80

Much of our daily stress and physical tension accumulates in the head, neck, and face. This specialized treatment focuses on gently releasing and unwinding restrictions within the cranial fascial layers to restore a sense of ease, clarity, and full-body alignment.
By applying precise, gentle pressure and slow myofascial releases, this therapy helps decompress the cranial bones, soothe the nervous system, and encourage structural unwinding. Through these slow, deliberate strokes and sustained holds across the neck, scalp, and facial muscles, the body is invited into a state of profound relief.
It offers excellent support for those navigating migraines, chronic headaches, concussions, or neck injuries. Because of its quiet, non-invasive nature, it is also an ideal therapeutic starting point for individuals with highly sensitive nervous systems.

Bodywork lasts for 60 minutes, please allow about 90 minutes for the appointment.

Romiromi / Mirimiri

1 hr 30 mins$150

Romiromi/Mirimiri is an ancient body work modality of the Maori. It works on all levels of your being (physical, mental, ancestral, spiritual) and focuses on releasing blockages in your energy system, and at realigning your mind, body and spirit. It can help you let go of anything that no longer serves you, and of anything that is in the way of you being truly you. Working deeply in the energetic realms and transcending time and space with the support of the land and our ancestors, this type of bodywork has the capacity to assist you with mental health challenges, physical manifestations of holding patterns, trauma experiences, and facilitates emotional release.
A session lasts between 90 and 120 minutes which includes an initial conversation and the time on the table. This treatment usually takes place fully clothed so please wear something stretchy and comfortable.
Please allow for alone time for yourself afterwards to be still and to integrate the session.

Pricing for this treatment varies depending on your circumstances and the length of the session. Most people end up paying between $120 - $160 for a 1.5-2 hour session.
Elemental Bodywork is ACC registered as a provider for rongoā Māori. Talk to me if you have an existing claim with ACC.

I got picked to be a 'practice body' for one of the students and it was amazing. Very professional and made to feel at ease the moment you stepped through the door. It was also very quiet considering the location so it was easy to relax and shut the world out for a bit. The only downside was that it had to come to an end!

Kath has been fantastic in helping with my frozen shoulder recovery through myofascial release therapy. I can feel an immediate improvement after each session, with a noticeable release of the tightness around my shoulder and improved mobility. It’s encouraging to feel things loosening up and my movement gradually improving. I’d definitely recommend Kath and will be booking my next appointment soon! ⭐️

Just had the most amazing massage experience with Kathrin. It was so much more than just a “massage”. She helped me to physically release some really heavy energy I’ve been carrying around and I honestly feel so much lighter walking out her door. Kathrin has a gift for finding things that need to be released and releasing it with so much care and support. I will definitely be going back for more in the future and highly recommend Kathrin to anyone who’s looking for a massage therapist/gifted intuitive healer. Nelson is very blessed to have Kathrin based here.

A++ is an understatement...Kath provides an environment in which every sense is nurtured. Taking on a racy, adrenaline and cortisol filled body is no easy task, she assisted me to come back to myself. I left her space feeling like I was floating, yet grounded. A healer in the true sense of the word 👏🏼 👌🏻 🙌🏻 ❤️‍🩹
