I have used Balance on and off for about 4 years. Jane is knowledgeable, professional, and an excellent therapist. The clinic is always warm and friendly. I have had treatments for stress related muscle issues, acute problems and to sort out longer term muscular issues. The treatments all have been very effective. My mother has been for relaxing massages and had a great time too! Very highly recommended.

I have had 3 x massage sessions with Lisa at Balance, she was recommended to me by my PT trainer at Les Mills, amazing! She is breaking down built up muscle tension from stress at work, definitely worthwhile for my longterm health. Thanks Tamara

I first began seeing Jane for massages about 6 years ago. I have continued on a relatively regular basis as she is awesome! Whether I go in for general stress relief or with a specific issue (not unusual with my job) she always finds the problematic muscles and is able to relax them. She is really specific with her massage and has great technique. I'm a Chiropractor, and I have referred many clients to Jane over the years as I'm really confident they'll get great results.

I saw Lynda for RAW sessions and also Sue for massage. The RAW sessions helped clear my mind of negative thoughts and made me feel renewed and positive, while the weekly massages helped me to relax and clear my mind ready for my IVF treatment. I felt the environment and service to be both caring and professional and would recommend, and have recommended, their services to others.

I found Balance Massage on Finda and they were great. My massage was with Lisa for a remedial and I can say it was the best remedial massage I've ever had.

I came across Balance at the 2008 Run Auckland Series. Sue treated me for a calf injury which occurred during the first race and with Sue's treatment I was able to run a couple of the later races in the series. Since then Sue has helped improve my muscle strength and maintain a level at which I can run without fear of the injury recurring through sports massage. I have a regular slot at Balance, visits I look forward to, not only for treatment of physical injuries, but at times for a relaxation massage in a professional environment, to talk running and many other health and non-health related matters with Sue. I would favourably recommend Balance to anyone looking for treatment.

I first tried Balance on a recommendation from a friend after my tried and trusted massage therapist moved away from New Zealand. I was prepared to be disappointed, having felt like I'd had to try several practitioners in order to appreciate the value of the person I'd been seeing previously, but was immediately convinced and have kept a regular booking with Sue ever since. Apart from the palpable effectiveness of her technique, there's the equally important x-factor of personality and approach. Her present-ness and professionalism just click for me. I've recommended Sue and Balance to anyone who's asked about massage since.

Sue has helped me recover from a very old hip injury, I didn't think I would ever get as much mobility as I have since my sessions with Sue. I am able to exercise without any discomfort now. Sue worked on muscles I didn't know existed, I always feel very relaxed after each session.

Absolutely brilliant and highly recommended for anyone who is a dedicated gym bunny to someone who needs a good massage once in a while. I get Therapeutic Massages with Lisa fortnightly since 2001. She is absolutely fantastic with finding the “knots” and how to release the tightness and soreness. Her advices on stretch exercises are always spot on! I also get Facial Radiance fortnightly from Lynda. Since I am allergic to some cosmetics, I stayed away from any Facial massages in the past. Facial Radiance uses no “cosmetic creams”, only Lynda’s magic fingers. Deep relaxation from the facial and head massage is out of this world. Balance Massage really care about our well-being!

I have had regular Therapeutic Massages with Lisa for the past 6 years and not only has she assisted me with relief and maintenance of old sports injuries, but she has helped with stress managements and relaxation. Lisa is the best massage therapist I have been too and I now have a monthly massage program to ensure muscle and body balance.

I get regular massages from Lisa and they are the best I've ever had - and I've tried a few. She always finds the lumps and has even fixed my neck a couple of times when it has been stiff and sore. I also appreciate the stretching advice she has given me - it has really help with my training.

I have been visited Lisa for a few years now. Its hard to find a good massage person that is firm and holistic. Lisa seems to always iron out the lumps and bumps leaving my body rejuvenated. Balance is always professional and friendly. I have recommended many of my friends to Lisa and everyone that has been has always re booked and been very happy with the results.
