Want massage reported (4)
I believe the answer is:
need
'want' is the definition.
(needing is a kind of wanting)
'massage reported' is the wordplay.
'massage' becomes 'knead' (synonyms).
'reported' shows a homophone (sound like).
'knead' sounds like 'NEED'.
(Other definitions for need that I've seen before include "Lack - demand" , "What's lacking" , "Want - require(ment)" , "''A friend in .... is a friend indeed''" , "Call" .)
