Gift for Neighbourly Neighbours!
When the winter sets in, its lovely to treat yourself to small delights that make each day feel good. Having a room that smells nice is really welcoming and calming to your senses.
In the month of July, any new neighbourly bookings for a Zen Thai Shiatsu 1.5 hour Treatment at Fluid and Bones receive a beautiful Earth Candle from the makers in Matakana.
Awaken and align your body with this exceptional treatment. Zen Thai Shiatsu addresses the body's needs by drawing on the Traditional Energetic based systems of Zen Shiatsu, Traditional Thai Massage and the remediation techniques of Osteopathy. By the integration of the prime aspects of the modalities and the creation of a safe, awake and caring healing environment, Zen Thai has evolved to be widely recognised as an effective structural and energetic form of therapy.
This is a movement based therapy with a reputation of effectively dealing with issues of the muscular-skeletal , digestive and nervous system.
The Earth Candles have beautiful delicate fragrances, and I love that they are up cycling wine bottles to create their candles.
Fragrances to choose from include
Raglan Vibes
Cape Reinga Cliffs
Cooks Candle
One per person. 1.5hr Treatments Only
Available for Treatments in July.
Fluid and Bones is the home studio of Pilates, Shiatsu and Cranial Practitioner Clare Luiten

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
