Nick says that the hot stone massage is effective for both body and mind.
“The precursor to physical ailments of the body is an energetic imbalance,” Nick says. “I assist in restoring emotional, psychological and physical wellbeing. If you have a massage after work you will be more relaxed, sleep well, feel amazing and perform better the next day.”
He is equally concerned about the wellbeing of the planet as he is with the body. In 1995, Nick was part of a group from Mahurangi that went to protest French nuclear testing at Mururoa Atoll.
“We were sent with a petition signed by many locals. We had the smallest boat of the flotilla; about 30 foot (9.1m) and we hit a storm. The waves were as high as the mast and we were the last to arrive, but we were also the last boat to leave.”
Nick says as well as physical ailments and sports massage, he also helps stressed-out mums and business people to get their body and mind back in harmony.
He has an array of stones in all shapes and sizes which he heats using an ultraviolet sterilising cabinet.
“I collected hard granite rocks that have been washed by the sea for thousands of years.
“The big stones warm the surface of the body with oil to relax, and increase blood flow. Others are for deep tissue work on tendons and ligaments, or complex areas like the neck.”
Nick also has an interest in Shamanism.
“The Shaman is the traditional healer in many indigenous cultures. It’s also a way of life that honours nature and realises the importance of the spirit.”
Nick has been growing his own organic food on his lifestyle block in Matakana for 20 years and meditates daily in a meditation pyramid.
He also offers deep tissue massage, lymphatic therapy, and ARC light therapy and he works from Warkworth Acupuncture rooms by appointment.
