I have experienced the pleasure of massage therapy with Nina.Having had other massage therapy experiences that were not pleasurable (those that left bruises and left me feeling much worse than before the massage). I have come to realise the importance of a skilled therapeutic massage executed by a professional, trained individual. Beyond her professionalism, I find that Nina truly cares about each individual, their health, their circumstances - mind body and spirit. She is dedicated to her profession and is, simply stated, one of the best!

I have been looking for a masseur like Nina for years! I have had many massages before - mostly along the lines for relaxation, but age is catching up with me and I instinctively knew that if I needed to find someone who could help with the chronic tension I have in my neck, shoulders and back.Nina was amazing. Within 5 minutes of meeting her, I knew that she had a great understanding of my body and my needs. When she started placing her hands on me, she was getting into all my sore spots and working with them until she was satisfied that she had released the tension.

Nina has been massaging me for nearly 12 months now while training for my marathon events. She utlises a variety of techniques to ensure I am in tip top shape. Thanks to her I was able to achieve by fastest ever half marathon recently in Melbourne without injury. I highly reccomend Ninas' Healing Hands.
