Kahu Weerden-Sweet · Level 7 Massage Therapist · Glenfield & Orewa
Tight shoulders, a niggling sports injury, or just need to switch off and unwind? Kahu is a Level 7 registered massage therapist at Premier Wellness, treating patients at both our Glenfield (North Shore) and Orewa (Hibiscus Coast) clinics. Remedial, deep tissue, sports and relaxation massage — built around your body, your goals and exactly what you need on the day.
Kahu Weerden-Sweet is a Level 7 registered massage therapist who trained at Otago Polytechnic in Dunedin, earning a Bachelor of Applied Science specialising in massage and health, alongside a Diploma in Wellness and Relaxation Massage. He started treating clients part-time while still studying — early exposure to clinical work that shaped how he treats today.
He believes massage should be a regular part of everyone's healthcare routine — not a once-a-year treat. His real passion is helping the everyday client: the desk worker with a stiff neck, the weekend runner, the new parent carrying tension in their shoulders. Active himself — from sport to time outdoors — he encourages clients to find ways to keep moving and look after their bodies in a way that actually fits their lifestyle.
Because everyone is different, Kahu tailors every treatment to the person on the table. As a MANZ-registered therapist, you can be confident you're in safe, qualified hands — and as Premier Wellness's Southern Cross Easy-Claim therapist, claiming is simple. He sees patients at both our Glenfield and Orewa clinics.
From stubborn knots and sports niggles to pure relaxation — here's what people most often see Kahu for at our Glenfield and Orewa clinics.
Targeted, clinical massage that finds the root cause of stubborn aches and tightness — then firm, deep pressure to release the knots and chronic tension behind it.
Pre-event prep, post-event recovery and ongoing maintenance. The same approach Kahu used with professional rugby teams, applied to your training and your goals.
Flowing, full-body massage to calm the nervous system, ease stress and help you properly switch off. Sometimes the best thing you can do for your body is rest.
Desk work, posture and stress that settle into your neck and shoulders — released with focused remedial and deep tissue techniques.
Lower back tension and lumbar tightness eased through soft tissue work — paired with practical advice on movement to help it settle and stay settled.
Gentle, supportive massage adapted for each stage of pregnancy — easing back pain, hip tightness and the everyday discomfort that comes with each trimester.
Heated stones melt away deep muscle tension while delivering serious relaxation — the warmth lets Kahu reach deeper tissue with gentler pressure.
Massage is one of the most effective ways to wind down a busy nervous system — reducing tension and helping with stress and broken sleep.
Not sure what you need? Kahu blends techniques — remedial, deep tissue, relaxation, cupping — into one session matched precisely to your body on the day.

Most people leave feeling looser, clearer about what's going on, and with a simple plan to keep it that way.
A quick chat about what's bothering you, any injuries or sore spots, and what you want to get out of the session.
Kahu picks the right techniques and pressure for your body and your goals — relaxation, remedial, deep tissue or a blend.
Focused treatment that finds the sore points and works them properly — firm where it needs to be, gentle where it doesn't.
A few practical pointers to keep tension at bay between sessions — and a plan if you're managing something ongoing.
Kahu has provided in-house massage for the Wallabies, Highlanders and Northland Rugby — working in fast, focused sessions alongside other therapists to keep professional athletes performing at their best.
You don't have to be a pro to benefit from that experience. Whether you're training for an event, playing club sport, or just want to move better and recover faster, Kahu brings the same understanding of how the body loads, fatigues and recovers to every session.
Book a sports massage with Kahu →Level 7 is the highest level of massage qualification in New Zealand — and it's what Kahu trained to. That depth shows up in the quality of the assessment, the precision of the treatment, and the results.
And because Premier Wellness is a multidisciplinary clinic, if something needs an osteopath, physiotherapist or acupuncturist alongside your massage, that's all under one roof at both Glenfield and Orewa.
