Priyanka Bhusal.
I hold a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, with a strong clinical understanding of anatomy, biomechanics, and rehabilitation. Originally from Nepal, I am currently undertaking a Master of Applied Management (Healthcare) at NMIT, further strengthening my knowledge of evidence-based practice and patient-centred care.
I work as a Massage Therapist at Massage Works, where I use my clinical background to provide personalised treatments. I specialise in trigger point release, myofascial release, and joint mobilisation techniques to reduce muscle tension, relieve pain, and restore functional movement. Each session is tailored to your individual needs, whether you are recovering from injury, managing ongoing discomfort, or looking to improve mobility and overall wellbeing.
While my approach is clinically informed, I prioritise creating a calm, supportive, and welcoming environment. I believe effective treatment begins with listening. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, understood, and confident in your care — leaving each session relaxed, balanced, and supported in your health journey.
Outside of practice, I enjoy staying active, expanding my clinical skills, and maintaining a healthy and balanced life style.
Anna Symms.
I am a Soft Tissue Therapist who is passionate about helping you feel and move better through hands-on techniques tailored to you. I gained my Level 5 BTEC Diploma in Soft Tissue Therapy at the London School of Sports Massage (LSSM) under the tutelage of Mel Cash. I am also a member of the Institute of Sports and Remedial Massage (ISRM).
I come from a farming, sports, and office job background. This has helped me understand the importance of being able to move freely and without pain, whether it is for recreational sport, work, or daily life. I am aware of the many physical and emotional stresses that we put on our bodies and I want to help relieve tension and restrictions that can build up in our muscles and joints. My sole aim is for you to leave the treatment room feeling better than when you walked in and for you to be able to live and enjoy life to the fullest.
I have a varied sporting background, playing hockey from an early age until my early 30s. Alongside and after hockey, I completed running races from 5km to marathons, including road, trail, cross country and obstacle races. I then entered the triathlon world and completed races from sprint to Ironman distance, including representing GB age groups at Olympic distance. I was also part of a channel relay swim team and have competed in road cycling and cyclo-cross races. I got hooked on CrossFit for a while and now enjoy functional fitness classes and generally being active outside walking, cycling and running everywhere.
Kate Gloeggler.
I first found my way to bodywork through dance—teaching and performing—where I explored movement as a way to connect, express, and understand the body. This journey naturally led me to teaching yoga and offering massage, deepening my passion and commitment to holistic wellbeing.
I hold certificates in Deep Tissue Massage and Thai Yoga Massage, with over 15 years of experience in massage and bodywork. I continue to grow my skills through ongoing massage education.
My approach is intuitive, grounded, and responsive to what each person needs. I love offering massage because it’s a powerful way to support the body’s natural ability to reset—relieving pain, easing tension, and helping the nervous system settle so you can feel more at home in yourself.
Alongside my massage practice, I work as an outdoor instructor, including with Outward Bound. I facilitate nature-based experiences that foster connection to self, others, and the natural world. I live what I love—spending time hiking, being by the ocean, exploring different movement styles like aikido, and staying active in ways that nourish body and spirit.
Dominique Pozrio.
I completed my studies in 2011 in Chile, receiving an Advanced Technical Diploma in Massage Therapy and Sport Rehabilitation. Since then I have worked as a massage therapist and have taken some alternative courses over the years to be able to improve myself in the area and provide a more complete service. I love helping clients and making them feel that all they needed was a good massage.
The saying goes:
good massage
good humor
good day...
In my free time I love to go hiking or simply take care of myself spending time on the beach, or in places where I feel happy and make me feel good.
Cordelia Sharpe.
I am the proud owner and manager of Massage Works, which I established when I moved to Nelson over 20 years ago.
I have been in professional practice since 1998, and I am passionate about helping people achieve their health, energy, and fitness goals. I believe massage can be of great benefit to everybody, and as research has proven, can have positive effects on many aspects on your health and well being.
I get a great sense of satisfaction working with clients that are pro-active in their own health. I enjoy teaching techniques and tools that my clients can take away to improve their everyday life and remain fit and active.
My style of massage is a combination of all the techniques I have learnt over my years of practice but is predominately pressure point and deep tissue, although each client is treated individually and given a treatment that best suit their needs.
I enjoy spending my spare time outdoors with my partner, friends, and my dogs, mountain biking, running and hiking, as well as time in my garden.
