Alexia
I’m Alexia Thorpe, the founder and massage therapist behind
My Muscles.
With a Diploma in Health Sciences Therapeutic Massage and a Diploma in Health Sciences Massage and Sports Therapy from the New Zealand College of Massage, I bring over 11 years of experience to My Muscles.
My Muscles began in Auckland in 2014 (don’t hold this against me). After nine incredible years of offering our services and building lasting relationships, we made the necessary (and Covid-infused) decision to move south to the greener pastures of New Plymouth in 2022.
Craving a more relaxed lifestyle, we set up our clinic, on the side of our property, just outside of town, where we share a clinic alongside my wonderful mother, who is a third-generation chiropractor at Bryce Chiropractic.

Kay.S
“I have been a client of Alexia’s for about ten months. I am impressed by her attention to detail in diagnosing the area of my body that requires attention. She is skilful in alleviating the tension in the
various muscle groups that cause me discomfort. I find her knowledgeable in explaining how the various muscles and tendons work together.
I feel safe in her care. I feel confident in recommending
her to others.”

Giving Back
We are passionate about giving back, and support a couple of local charities that make a positive impact in New Zealand. We contribute a percentage of each massage to NZ Wide Sea Cleaners and the Restoke mental health foundation. We believe in ensuring that future generations of Kiwis enjoy the same opportunities I’ve (Alexia) had, whether it’s swimming or living a healthy life.
