Note: NouriShe is for ladies only, sorry boys!
This is a hard review for me to write, not because of the quality of massage. No, it was excellent. Not because I’ve sprained my arm playing doubles tennis over the weekend and am having trouble typing. No, I’m not cool enough to play tennis.
This is a hard review for me to write, because I know once the ‘secret is out’ that I’m going to have difficulty booking in for what could possibly be the highest quality cheap massage in Perth.
The only child in me wants to hide this from you all, proclaiming ‘MINE!’ and be smug in my secret knowledge of the best deal in town. My Mum always made me extra cookies to share though, and it’s with that memory that I’m overcoming all of my greedy instincts to share NouriShe Massage with you.
Referred to me by one of my contributors, I was immediately struck by what Helen from NouriShe was offering:
♥ Relax and unwind
♥ Soothe aching muscles and improve circulation
♥ Relieve muscle tension and restore normal movement
(please allow 90 mins for your appointment)
A relaxation massage, that’s up to 90 minutes in duration, for $50. Given that I’ve been paying $105 for an hour massage, it’s safe to say I was more than a little interested especially since it had come to me highly recommended from a friend of a friend.
Ever skeptical however, I recalled my only other experience with a home based masseuse. Eagles vs. Dockers match on the radio, long fake fingernails scratching down my back, awkward overly dark room.
NouriShe is nothing like this.
The massage room is warm and cosy, with small candles, flowers & classical style music playing from an iPod speaker. It’s also perfectly lit, just a little dim. A choice of two herbal teas awaits me as I fill out the consent form. I chose peppermint.
Helen explains everything thoroughly and goes through how the massage is going to unfold, it all sounds fine and I am feeling good.
Due to long hours at the computer & my ‘could be better’ posture, there are a lot of tender spots & knots in my back, shoulders and neck. Helen is proficient in deep tissue / remedial massage as well, so works on these areas for me when she comes across them. While this part of the massage was not the most relaxing, it’s necessary to keep the back/neck healthy and I was given advice to help prevent the problems in the future.
A few of the things that stand out for me about the experience…
♥ Quite a while was spent on massaging the area where the hip meets the lower back on each side, this felt divine and is a spot often skipped over by massage therapists in my experience.
♥ The pressure used was perfect for me, a firm but caring touch.
♥ Despite being located in a home, there were small touches such as a tiny lit candle & flowers in the bathroom that helped create the experience, I really liked this.
Overall I really enjoyed my massage at NouriShe and the price is a dream.

I’ve had a few massages from Helen and they are amazing. I totally agree with your review. Do yourself a favour and book in now! She has magical hands and is worth every cent (even more!)
Great comment Christina, thanks for stopping by, I’ll be sure to pass along the compliment to Helen… which reminds me, I REALLY need to book in with her soon! 🙂
