The Massage Approach
Therapeutic massage with Tim Mace in Herne Bay, Auckland, designed to support the nervous system, restore structural ease, and integrate botanical support.
The body is not static. Through consistent care, movement, and awareness, it develops new patterns of response. Each session combines anatomical understanding, skilled touch, and an individual approach to support your body's capacity to adapt. Massage sessions are available by appointment at the SynergiesAlign clinic in Herne Bay, Auckland.

Specialised & Integrative Bodywork
Focused approaches for specific physical needs, including lymphatic drainage and structured bodywork developed over a series of sessions.
Deep Tissue Massage
Focused. Considered. Responsive.
A restorative approach to muscular tension using considered pressure and responsive techniques tailored to each individual.
Pressure is guided through a simple scale, allowing you to remain in control of depth and intensity throughout the session. The aim is effective muscular work without overwhelming the body's natural response.
Deep tissue techniques may be combined with selected acupressure points to address areas of restriction, support movement, and restore a greater sense of structural ease.
Lymphatic Drainage
A specialised form of manual lymphatic work using light, rhythmic techniques and a carefully structured sequence. Treatment is adapted according to the lymphatic pathways involved and the scope of work required.
Structured Massage Series
A progressive three-session approach designed to build on the work over time. Beginning with a longer initial session, follow-up sessions develop and integrate the work according to what emerges.
With over two decades of hands-on experience, my work is shaped by anatomy, therapeutic bodywork, aromatherapy, and thousands of hours spent working directly with individual bodies.
Over time, this has developed into a responsive approach that listens to the body, supports its natural processes, and encourages meaningful, lasting change.
