About Evoke Health NZ

My name is Kate Anderson. I am a NZ Registered Nurse (NZRN), WellChild Nurse, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC),  Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist (BCST) and Massage Therapist. I am a mother of three- two boys and one girl (picture taken 2018). I live and work from beautiful Pinehaven in Upper Hutt and support the wider Wellington Community.

​​

I began massaging about 15 years ago after completing a Certificate in Therapeutic Massage therapy. Since then I have developed my own style of massage by combining my understanding of anatomy and "felt sense" and utilize these to offer wonderful pregnancy and postnatal massage.

I started helping women and families breastfeed in 2012 after my second son was born. It was through the challenges I faced breastfeeding him that I pursued a career as an IBCLC-qualifying in 2015. Since then I have supported many families in their breastfeeding journey. I have worked in community settings and hospital and now my private practice. I also offer breastfeeding support to various support groups in the region.

 

​Throughout my career as an IBCLC and breastfeeding counsellor I had seen wonderful outcomes for babies who had received "Body Work" and I decided I would venture into this area of practice as well and completed my Diploma in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy in 2018. This opened my eyes to an entirely new way of looking at health, for our babies and their families but also for all ages and stages of life, from pregnancy through to older age and every thing in between.

I look forward to meeting you and supporting you and your family on your journey to health and wellness

I had never done anything like this before but after having my baby I felt my posture was really out of whack. The session was so relaxing and calm. A few weeks afterwards I felt more like my usual self and the pain in my back and arms disappeared.

As an endurance runner I have used Kate in preparation for major events and in my recovery. Her knowledge and experience puts her top of my support crew list! Highly recommend Kate.

Kate is not only a highly skilled lactation consultant, she is also a very kind and empathetic person who understands the anxieties that come with breastfeeding difficulties, particularly tongue and lip ties. Without Kate’s knowledge and guidance I can hands down say I would not still be be breastfeeding.

I cannot recommend Kate highly enough! She listened and really understood the issues we were having, and was able to assess whether my son had a tongue-tie (my primary concern) and then referred us on to the appropriate specialists. Her use of CST is incredibly gentle and our little boy is always so calm and relaxed afterwards. On every visit she has been friendly, professional and extremely helpful. It has been lovely (and stress-relieving) to feel like I can ask plenty of questions and move forward with some positive steps. As stated, I absolutely would recommend her to any mums with feeding concerns. Thank you so much for all of your support Kate!

Kate was wonderful. She listened, observed and offered practical and emotional support during a very difficult breastfeeding journey. She also referred on to other professionals where needed and hired out equipment that assisted me a lot. Highly recommended. Thanks.
