ABOUT OUR FOUNDER, DANNIELLA

Hi Everyone!

I’m Danniella, the founder and owner of Danniella Bell - Remedial Massage.

I was born in West Auckland but grew up in a small town in South Auckland called Waiuku. I was, and still am, a very active person and always had a passion for physical activity, especially dancing!

I originally wanted to study physiotherapy (even as a kid), but massage appealed to me more once I had planned to leave school. This was due to the fact that it was far more hands on which I loved. I was 16 when I left school for uni and started my business at 19!

Starting this business was a huge step for me. I studied massage (both level 5&6) for 2 years at WINTEC in Hamilton, New Zealand whilst working 4 jobs to pay for my studies outright (this was one of my main goals).

I then went on to specialise in Dry needling and Oncology massage alongside sports/ rehab specific massage therapy.

I now have owned DBRM for two years. In these two short years I have worked with elite level sports teams such as the Springboks, One NZ Warriors, Canberra Raiders, Cronulla Sharks, Wellington Phoenix and many more. This was a huge step in my career and I have loved having the opportunity to work in this incredible industry!

As of recent I have just brought my first home with my amazing partner Ash in 2024 and have hired my three beautiful staff members Janelle, Addie and Wil!

Thank you to all my amazing clients and family, this wouldn’t have happened without your love and support!

Hard work pays off! Work hard, dream big x
