Our Team
At Massage Works, you can book with confidence knowing each therapist has been carefully chosen for their skill, professionalism and commitment to high-quality care.
We take the time to understand what has brought you in and what you would like to achieve. While every therapist has their own experience and treatment style, we share the same focus: thoughtful treatment, clear communication and helping you get the best possible result from your appointment.
Many clients return year after year, and we’re proud to help people manage discomfort, recover from injury and stay active .
Meet Cordelia
Deep tissue, trigger point work and practical advice you can use between appointments
I’ve been practising massage therapy since 1998 and have built Massage Works around skilled treatment, practical advice and long-term client care.
After establishing and running my own clinic in Auckland, I moved to Nelson and founded Massage Works, which has now been part of the Nelson community for over 20 years.
My treatment style is predominantly trigger point and deep tissue massage. I work with the body rather than against it, adjusting pressure and technique as the muscles respond and giving areas of tension time to soften and release. I particularly enjoy working with people who want to take an active role in their health and see massage as part of their ongoing care.
Alongside hands-on treatment, I share practical techniques and tools clients can use between appointments to help them move more comfortably, stay active and support their overall wellbeing.
Outside the clinic, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my partner, our dogs and friends, as well as mountain biking, running, hiking and gardening.
Meet Priyanka
Clinically informed massage with a strong understanding of anatomy, movement and rehabilitation
I hold a Bachelor of Physiotherapy and am currently completing a Master of Applied Management in Healthcare at NMIT. Originally from Nepal, I work at Massage Works as a massage therapist, drawing on my clinical training and understanding of anatomy, biomechanics and rehabilitation.
My treatments may include trigger point work, myofascial techniques and joint mobilisation. I use these techniques based on your needs and how your body responds, with the aim of reducing discomfort and improving movement.
I have a quiet, calm and thoughtful approach and work in a measured way, adjusting my techniques as needed throughout the treatment.
Outside the clinic, I enjoy spending time with my husband and friends and continue to build my knowledge through further study and professional development.
Meet Anna
Soft tissue techniques and active stretching to reduce tension and improve movement
I’m a qualified Soft Tissue Therapist with a Level 5 BTEC Diploma from the London School of Sports Massage.
With a background in farming, office work and sport, I understand the different demands that work, training and everyday life can place on the body. I use a combination of soft tissue techniques and active stretching to help reduce muscular tension, improve movement and support recovery.
I have an extensive sporting background including hockey, running and triathlon. I’ve completed marathons and Ironman-distance events and represented Great Britain in my age group at Olympic-distance triathlon.
My aim is simple: for you to leave the treatment room feeling better than when you arrived. Outside the clinic, I enjoy CrossFit and functional fitness classes, walking, cycling, running and spending time outdoors with my partner and dog.
