Pregnancy /Therapeutic Massage by Liz

Liz is A-​MAZING! I just had my baby about a week ago and my body has just been out of whack since. Last night my neck and shoulders has such bad spasms that I was at my wits end. I called Liz because of her stellar Unilocal reviews. She actually took the time to talk to me and find out what was wrong. I could tell she would be good just by talking to her. My intuition was right on. She massages away all the kinks and knots and even did some cupping. I felt my body actually loosening up and I fell asleep!!! That never happens to me during a massage! You have to be pretty damn good for that to happen. Anyway, I can’t say enough other than I’d love to see her every day of my life. Thanks Liz!

wow! thank you Liz for such an amazing touch you have!!!
and Thank You Unilocal!once again for allowing me to find such amazing business/​services via fellow reviewers! I did a search for prenatal massage as I am 38 weeks pregnant and feeling tired and achy with swollen hands, puffffy feet, an achy back and neck!
Liz is an very intuitive body worker so without much direction at all she used the precise pressure to relax my tension. her space is tranquil and I felt relaxed immediately upon meeting her. it was my first time meeting her though we did talk briefly over the phone to make the appointment — I found her professional and super amicable and her insight to where my tightest spots on my body very helpful.
typically I like to be mostly silent during massage sessions but since she is so experienced and likable I found myself talking a lot to which she even professionally helped me stop so I could relax and get back to focusing on my breathing and receiving her healing work. (:
I feel empowered to have found such an incredible massage therapist along this pregnancy journey, her business is far better than any ol massage place experience, and most importantly wonderful 5 star quality work and attention! I look forward to being a regular client even after delivering my baby.

I was having some pretty excruciating Sacroilliac pain around my 6^th month of pregnancy and thought there was nothing that could be done. I made an appointment to see Liz and was very pleased to see she knew exactly where to go and what to do. After some deep tissue work on that area and surrounding areas she had me feeling MUCH better! I am able to get in and out of bed and up and down from the couch without that sharp pain I had been dealing with for months. I wish I would have found her earlier in my pregnancy!

I received a gift certificate as a birthday gift and saw Liz when I was 38 weeks pregnant. She is warm and friendly and made me feel comfortable of being in her home for the massage. She was very professional as well. Her massage was perfect. She gauged exactly the firmness of pressure I wanted and applied it though out. I left feeling relaxed and my body felt great for days afterwards. Previous prenatal massages left me more sore or tense after the massage then before the massage. Since finding Liz, I have given a gift of her massage to my sister in law for a post pregnancy massage. I would definitely go to Liz again and recommend her to all my friends and family.

Fantastic massage! I went to see Liz when I was 36 weeks pregnant, she came highly recommended by a friend who still sees her regularly after her pregnancy. I am so grateful for the recommendation, I left feeling very relaxed and that night, I finally got a good night’s sleep (which made it worth it alone!) after several weeks of waking up every few hours during the night with achy back and hips.
Liz is very personable and asks specific questions so she can adjust her pressure levels, parts of the body to focus on etc during the massage but she could also intuitively tell where I was most tight or sore and I could feel my body loosening up even during the massage.
Overall, I felt amazing afterwards and left already thinking about when to book my next massage with her. I’m definitely going back and I highly recommend her!

My only regret is that I didn’t go to her sooner. She is AMAZING. my entire body has been hurting this whole pregnancy, and after getting a massage after 37 weeks, i felt the best I’ve felt in a long time. HIGHLY recommend!

I had a massage with Liz a couple of days ago and I am so pleased. Not only was she great during the time I was with her, but I can tell what a good job she did on my trouble spots. I was sore yesterday and today I feel great!!!
First of all, Liz is a very sweet and warm person and you can tell she has a passion for what she does. Her initial pressure level was what I call the «feel good» zone — and it was really good. Once I asked her to work on some spots with more pressure she went right to it and did a great job working out tight spots in my back and legs. She definitely knows how to get in there but with a lot of finesse.
She works out of her home, so its not a fancy spa experience, but once she starts working you won’t know the difference. She has the music going, a warm blanket and the massage table and lavender oil, If you want someone who knows what they are doing and loves it then go to Liz. She definitely went over the allotted hour. She doesn’t clock out like at a bigger establishment, she works for you. In short, I recommend her! Thanks Liz!

Almost one year later, I now have my eight month old, and am still hooked on Liz’s massage. She was amazing for my pre/​post natal and «everything that comes after» phases. She has customized my massages and really knows my body, my problem areas, and knows how to work out the stress of every day life & strain on my neck and shoulders from managing and holding a baby. She continues to work with my schedule and is really good about trying to accomodate my time restrictions. It is not only therapeutic for me to go to her, but it is my «pamper time». Go pamper yourself with Liz!

Liz is a touchstone of beauty and healing. Her presence is a golden aura and just being in her proximity is amazing. You really need to reserve an appointment to have Liz help you get to know your body once more, in health.

My best experience during this pregnancy!
I am almost at the end of the second trimester of my pregnancy, still lots of headaches besides the neck and upper back pain, and a lot of tendered muscles.
I have tried pain management’s safe injections, chiropractors, acupuncture and more, but nothing helped with my pain as much as Liz’s massage did.
She just knows how to relax those muscles with her generous and energetic hands.
She always takes her time to finish the whole session with no rush, making sure she has covered every each muscle in need.
She is also a very nice and charming woman, who makes you feel very comfortable sharing your concerns. She hears you, that is why she is able to address the pain and discomfort in the your body and helps it.
I am so happy to find her and I wish I have had found her earlier!

I normally get monthly deep tissue massages but my usual therapist is not certified in prenatal massage so I went on Unilocal to find a therapist who was experienced in prenatal massage and I’m so lucky that I found Liz! In contrast to a lot of generic massages I’ve received, where the therapists just go through their usual routine, Liz gave me a very individualized massage. She was really good at reading my body (I have a lot of muscle imbalances) and spent more time on the parts that really needed it. After I went home that evening, I felt really energized (but not too much where I couldn’t go to sleep) and I did the next day as well. I’ve never felt this way after a massage before, but I loved it!
I was only 14 weeks into my pregnancy at my first massage with her, and am lucky that I haven’t had any pregnancy-​related issues, but Liz was AMAZING! I would go to her even if I weren’t pregnant!

I was nearing the end of my first trimester and was in need of a great massage. I got on Unilocal to do some searching and see what I could find. As soon as I came across Liz and read all the rave reviews, I knew I had to give her a call. After chatting for a bit about her experience and massage technique, I booked an appointment. It was nothing short of super relaxing and amazing. Liz is very professional, personal and always strives to make sure you are comfortable. She is extremely thorough, caring, and attentive and really takes her time to make sure she works on all areas of concern. I now see her once a month and always walk out feeling like a new person! If you’re in the market for a new massage therapist, don’t hesitate to call Liz. You’ll be happy you did!

I went to list after experiencing body aches and a sore back from my pregnancy. The massage was amazing, I was tense all over and after the massage I felt a million times better. Definitely recommend Liz! She has miracle hands and love her presence. She makes your feel right at home!

I’ve struggled with low back pain and SI joint pain on and off for years. I had a massage therapist who moved away and since have been struggling to find another one who really could help me. I am now in my third trimester of pregnancy and the pain was really bothering me. I was referred to Liz by a friend and had my first massage with her yesterday. WOW! Liz was sweet, professional, friendly and figured out right away where I was tight and worked on that area. The massage was excellent and exactly what I needed. I immediately felt relief. I am so happy to have found her and intend to see her regularly now to help with my pain. What a huge relief to find someone who really knows what they are doing!

Liz is amazing. After one hour massage, I could feel huge different. I came to get a massage from her right after my sister-to-be’s bachelorette party in LV. Wow. It was such a fun party but not easy for a pregnant woman. Haha Liz made my body recovered fully. She told me how hard my back was but I didn’t realize it. However after one hour massage I could tell my back got so light and relaxed.
She was also very kind and professional to let me know the direction to get there and parking situation, etc. She is also let me know she could do a flexible schedule for me since I live very far from her. Even if you live far, she is the one pregnant women should try for massage.
I’ll definitely return to her.

I found Liz at week 38 of my pregnancy and I really wish I had known about her sooner. I had developed a lot of low back pain late in my pregnancy and was dying for some relief. I got a massage from Liz and have not had any pain since. The massage was the perfect combination of therapeutic and relaxation. I was so worried that I was going to have to suffer with this pain until delivery but I am thrilled that it is better. The atmosphere was perfect and Liz’s energy and demeanor was wonderful. I left feeling so relieved and relaxed and much better. I have made another appointment with her before my due date and if I haven’t gone into labor by then I will be back. I also will definitely get massages from her even after my baby. I highly recommend Liz for massage– pregnant or not. She is amazing!!!

I’ve been suffering from lower back and sciatica pain since the very beginning of my pregnancy. Specifically, every time I get up from sitting down or lying down (especially during bedtimes), I would feel immobilizing pain in my lower back shooting down my legs to the mid-​thigh area. I’ve found that a combination of yoga, physical therapy and massage therapy with Liz keep my sciatica pains away.
If you’re suffering from pregnancy pains and aches, I really do recommend Liz. She is wonderful. She has a very friendly personality. Her house is super clean (no evidence of her car or fur). And her healing hands are amazing.
I get the 1-​hr long massage. It’s painful at times but soothing. She uses hot stones to help relax my muscles. And afterwards, I feel well rested and «put back together.» It’s a treat for myself and the baby every time I see her.
Parking: It’s not difficult to find street parking.
Price: Very reasonable. You get a discount if you mention Unilocal.
Environment: Very clean. I have allergies to pets and was fine.

I went in to see Liz after running the Surf City Half Marathon, which I PR’d with a 1:25:01, dealing with a plantar fasciitis, Liz did an excellent job addressing the issue. I was back working out the following day and now feeling great. My calves and plantar fasciitis are no longer bothering me and was a direct result of seeing her on a consistent basis. Thanks to her knowledge and great work.

My boyfriend surprised me with a post-​natal massage by Liz! I had just had a baby and was having severe back, neck, shoulder aches from nursing so after reading great reviews he booked a session for me. Liz was wonderful! She focused on all the areas that were bothering me and I felt relief for the first time in months. One of the best massages I’ve ever had… it was well worth the drive! I highly recommend her… and she was extremely professional and friendly!

I have known Liz for many years. She is a sweet lady, very professional. And she does the best massages I have ever had. She concentrates on problem areas and always give you a little extra time. You can feel that she loves what she does and she is great. I love her. She deserves a 5 star.
