Trevor Hamilton
|
Since the year 2000 Trevor spent life balancing his passion for therapeutic massage with his business as a carpenter and joiner. Finding himself in demand as both a private massage therapist and a tutor at New Zealand College of Massage, Trevor made the decision in 2014 to focus solely on massage and hasn't looked back.
Trevor was originally drawn to massage while managing health issues of his own. He soon discovered he derives deep satisfaction from helping others achieve their health goals. He is particularly interested in the way our bodies react to stress and believes that part of any good massage therapist's role is to listen to their clients carefully, to gain a strong sense of the whole person and their unique requirements.
He says: “Every life has a story. If we don't listen to that story we don't get the complete picture. If we don't have the complete picture, then we don't understand - we assume. To give a complete session we need to understand, not assume.”
Trevor has worked with athletes at club and international level for rugby, triathlons, triple jump, mountain biking, ultimate frisbee, endurance racing, trail running, swimming, rowing, cycling, kayaking and netball.
He says: “It's a real buzz when you see someone who has lived with pain for a long time, start to become aware of having pain-free periods of time. Its also very awesome to share in and see people achieving their goals big or small. It's a privilege to know you can play a little part in improving your client's quality of life.”
What Trevor's clients say
"When I first came to you with RSI I thought my career was over - that was 6 years ago and I am still going!"
"Because of what you have done I can now play with my kids again, take them biking."
"I can do my job and not be too sore when I get home."
"I've been seeing Trevor Hamilton for sports massage for 5 years now. He is a brilliant massage therapist, who won't just work on where it's sore but uses his in depth knowledge of the human body to search for the source. I trust Trevor to keep me supple and moving freely so I can continue racing internationally." – Hamish Carson, 1500m runner and 2016 Olympian
