Balance for life still closed
Hi my wonderful neighbors
I hope you are healthy and coping.
I have been approached by a few clients if I would be able to see them at level 2 . Some even asked me at level 3. I understand that one can get urgent and even desperate to receive the care, healing and physical touch again which is very much a big part of our holistic massage but unfortunately also the biggest eliminating factor for being possible at Lockdown.
Close contact for 60-90 min in an enclosed room imposes great risks of infection.
The overarching theme within my profession has always been "do no harm", and this is as critical as ever. There are a fair few things that need to be put in place before re-opening my clinic, to make sure I can practice as safely as possible and minimise risk, both for my clients, myself and my family.
Therefore I will stay closed until we are back to level one or other safety measures have been applied.
However, if you would like to discuss an issue or need someone to listen I am happy to hear you.
Much love ❤️

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
