Tim is very skilled and is also a very well meaning person. From one massage, he mostly solved an issue in my shoulder that I had been suffering with for months. I really recommend his services.

Visiting Nelson and needed to get some relief from back pain. I had a massage from Tim who found my sore spots and then some spots I didn’t realise I had. Ready to continue with my holiday without back issues. Thanks Tim

Tim is very good at recognising knots and great at working on them. I like a firm massage but he happily works to your preference so don't be afraid to let him know that. He's professional and friendly. Try him.

Have had several massages with Tim and keep going back for more. Tim is professional and creates a warm and inviting environment. Tim adapts to your individual needs and his massages always hit the spot, I find them greatly beneficial. Highly recommended.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely outstanding service and results! Tim Young is hands-down one of the best therapeutic massage therapist I have come across. He truly specializes in deep tissue work and pain relief and it shows. Unlike generic massages, Tim takes the time to listen to your specific issues and crafts a treatment that is incredibly effective. He works slowly and thoroughly, finding the exact spots causing chronic tension without rushing the process. The pressure was firm but perfectly adjusted to my comfort level, and I felt immediate release in my neck and lower back that had been tight for months. I left the session feeling not only relaxed but also significantly more mobile. His professionalism, calming demeanor, and practical self-care advice were the icing on the cake. If you are dealing with chronic pain or need serious muscle relief, book an appointment with Tim—you won't regret it! Highly, highly recommended.

My neck, lower back and hips were so tense and agitated when I went to see Tim. Now the pain has gone, I am sooo relieved. Pressure was perfect! Tim knows exactly what he's doing and is a genuinely nice person. Highly recommend!!!

I have been treated by Tim for a neck 'injury' three times over about a year. I still have the 'injury' but it is somewhat reduced, however I do not think it is a typical 'injury' and is likely to be an 'emotional' issue and so I am now pursuing a NET/chiropractic approach. This failure to cure my neck is no reflection on Tim who worked persistently and diligently on each visit. I do recommend you give him a try. His understanding of my problem and attempt to resolve it with massage and verbal suggestions was greatly appreciated as was the ambience of his treatment room which was worth the price just to be in there and relax for an hour. Thank you Tim.
