Suzie is both generous of spirit and professional to her core. Suzie’s clients are welcomed to her home and studio and welcomed into Suzie’s world, a nurturing, caring, peaceful environment. On time, prepared, thoughtful, and present are aspects of Suzie’s character that I appreciate as a client on arrival. These aspects extend into a considered approach to understanding my needs every massage while maintaining an awareness of past issues, and lead to a dynamic approach in providing a wonderfully tailored massage. The extra thought and specific adaptations that Suzie incorporates into her massage work is a reflection on her intelligence, commitment to excellence and deep caring.
Put simply, Suzie is truly gifted as a massage therapist. Her depth of knowledge and skill in massage is underpinned by her strong intuition and broad life experience. During my pregnancy with our second daughter, I felt Suzie’s care was the most valuable support I’d received out of all of my prenatal care providers. Perhaps because it is a journey Suzie has experienced herself, but she was able to give the right amount of nurture, guidance and physical relief. Suzie is equally talented in other forms of massage and also happens to be the absolute best massage therapist my cyclist husband has ever come across! Suzie recently made extra time to come to our home and help my husband relieve muscular pain and tension caused by a hamstring tear that had remained unresolved for a week (and after several physio visits). Suzie is generous with her time, wisdom and talents. She is a person who continues to grow and learn in all aspects of her life and her broad interests and intelligence are attributes that enrich our connection immensely.

My pre-birth massages with Suzie allowed me to deeply nurture my growing body and to connect with my unborn baby. I remember during my first massage being taken on a gentle guided meditation where my baby and I floated together, connected by an umbilical cord. The massage was lying on my belly on the pregnancy cushion which was incredibly comfortable and relaxing. Suzie treated pain in my lower back. I always left my massage feeling unburdened from my fears, aches and pains.

My post birth recovery massage took me into a safe and healing space when I felt the most vulnerable. The massage was gentle and restorative and a sacred experience of caring for my body that had just traveled a huge journey. My birth experience was challenging and Suzie offered a safe space to share my story which was a big part of my healing process.

For weeks following the birth, I had discomfort and pain in my hip which extended around into my lower back and was aggravated when walking. I was unable to resolve this with visits to a physio and could not seem to pin point the issue. I described my pain to Suzie during my postnatal massage and she was able to locate the exact area which triggered my pain. She used deep massage and essential oils on my hip and back. Following my massage, I was amazed that I have had no issues or pain whatsoever with my hip and back. I have now been able to return to most of my pre-pregnancy activities.

Suzie openly shares her wealth of knowledge including essential oils, nutrition and other natural remedies. She goes beyond to research things that come up during treatments. For example, I lost a lot of blood during my birth and Suzie sent me research on how to build up my blood levels and grow stronger after birth. Suzie is passionate about supporting mamas through pregnancy, birth and post birth. She is truly a beautiful soul. My massage treatments with Mother Earth Massage have been invaluable to my pre and post birth experience.

Suzie has an energy that allows her to give our daughter a beautiful relaxing bub rub massage with each visit. She also works wonders in supporting my little one’s bowels to move along. Suzie and our daughter have a special bond through their bub rubs!

You’re amazing. Really! You allow a pause. It’s so potent. It’s just so like we do in Kundalini Yoga where we say – “now witness the energy” – so the pause allows the shift to occur from the posture you’ve done. You must’ve done healing before. There’s definitely something innate there. When GeorGina said “It’s an experience”, I knew that’s exactly what I needed. It’s not just a rub down. I will absolutely be back. Even after the first massage I had so much clarity afterwards, that night and the next day was amazing, honestly. You’re amazing.”

Thank you for sharing your gift of touch. I feel as though I have arrived back home into my body and I’m ready to welcome me with open arms and an open heart.

As a doula, I recommend Suzie to my pregnant clients because I say to them you don’t just need an awesome massage therapist, you need to have a therapist that is very woman centered, who understands a pregnant and new mothers needs emotionally as well as physically. When you go to Suzie you will feel nurtured and cared for. I tell my clients to treat them and their man to an in-home massage after birth also, because we forget how emotional it is for a man.

Definitely the best massage I’ve ever had. I can never find pressure strong enough. Thank you Mother Earth Massage!

I came to Suzie for my first pregnancy in 2014. I was overdue and looking for strategies to help avoid a chemical induction. The moxa induction massage was incredible. I was transported into my own little cocoon and felt completely connected with my baby. I went into labor the next day and it wasn’t long after we met our son. Three years later, Suzie’s soothing voice and her knowing firm touch was equally wonderful ahead of the arrival of our daughter. The massages I have received at Mother Earth Massage are by far the best massages I have ever had and the whole experience from the foot spa and herbal tea to relaxing on the beautiful veranda afterwards was truly beautiful and memorable.

I had the best massage in my life with Suzie! Your cushioning system was amazing on my pregnant tummy and the aroma of essential oils brought me miles away from the reality. I felt like i had such a rest at your place and spent there at least half a day even the session went for an hour! I would recommend Mother Earth Massage to all my friends, especially mummies to be, go enjoy yourselves!

Suzie's pregnancy massage is heaven! I always leave feeling blissed out and in touch with my body and baby. Suzie has massaged me during 2 of my pregnancies and I leave feeling on cloud nine every time. Suzie's service is personalised depending on your needs on the day, and I love the extras of the foot spa with a view and essential oils (also personalised to your needs). I always recommend Suzie to my friends and people I meet who are trying to find a good massage therapist. I am going to be booking in for a post natal massage at the end of the month and cannot wait! Thank you Suzie for working wonders on my body, making pregnancy more comfortable and relaxing - Lauren
