Lisa Buchanmassage therapist & owner of Balance Massagelevel 6 MNZ registered
I have been a massage therapist for 28 years and am a strong believer in using regular massage to relieve stress, improve posture, manage sports injuries and to achieve optimal levels of wellbeing.
I have had extensive experience with sports teams and events, and was a team support provider for the NZ Academy of Sport North Island for 8 years. I travelled to Japan with the NZ Cross Country team in 2006, Hawaii for the 2008 Ironman Champs, was exclusive massage therapist to America True, Americas Cup Syndicate 1999/2000, and have worked with many individual athletes from elite to recreational. "I have visited Lisa Buchan for a few years now. It's hard to find a good massage person that is firm and holistic. Lisa seems to always iron out the lumps and bumps leaving my body rejuvenated. Balance is always professional and friendly. I have recommended many of my friends to Lisa and everyone that has been has always re booked and been very happy with the results." Di
