    Testimonials

    I have no hesitation referring my naturopathic clients to Sue at Bax & Bodz as I have found her to be extremely professional & competent. Sue offers excellent pampering or remedial massages and my clients have always given me positive feedback from her treatments and always go back for more. I refer clients to Bax & Bodz to aid with weight loss, detoxification or just pure relaxation and Sue always delivers skilled, exquisite treatments.
    Kyeema Richards. Naturopath. Nu-Leaf.

    I thought it might be useful to drop you a short email to thank you for your recent efforts in locating & massaging many of my sore spots. As you know, even though I was in a fair bit of discomfort when I initially saw you, a day after the second massage I was able tp play golf with full flexibility and power. That in itself was a minor miracle given how stiff (and sore) I was before you started working on me.

    I am a 51 year old male, with a solid muscle mass & strong upper body strength. After injuring my lower back in a work accident, I sought relief & treatment through Chiropractic and Physiotherapy. Whilst beneficial, these just didn’t seem to fully address the discomfort. Coupled with this, I injured my right shoulder and neck in martial arts sparing. Having received beneficial relief for injuring through deep tissue massage in the past, I sought out someone capable of providing the sort of intensive massage treatment I would need. The difficulty was locating someone with both the sports injury knowledge & hand strength to work in deep through the muscle layers. After several less than satisfactory treatments, I found Sue Brocklehurst at Bax & Bodz. Sue has been able to get to the seat of the problems and manipulate my muscles to relieve tension and pain. There is no doubt that her skill in deep tissue massage assisted in rapid reduction in discomfort. Through the maintenance of a regular massage regime, coupled with exercise and stretching, I have been able to maintain my fitness & continue to train without the presence of lower back, shoulder of neck pain. I would recommend Sue’s skills and empathetic approach to anyone seeking a genuine therapeutic deep tissue massage

    I have been receiving treatment from Sue Brocklehurst for over a year, having ear candling and relaxation/remedial massage. I have looked upon all my treatments with Sue as my therapy as Sue has the ability to make you relax. Her gentle, calming and professional manner is very therapeutic.

    I suffer from sinus problems and eczema in my ears for which the ear candling treatments have been highly effective and have removed the need for antibiotics and other drug treatments. I have been a nurse for over 30 years and as a result have periodic problems with my back. Sue’s massage has assisted in alleviating the pain and relaxing me.

    I have also bought several of Sue’s soaps and fragrant infusers as gifts which have been gratefully received. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Sue for any treatment that she may provide.
    Jenny Williams. Personal Assistant & mother

    I would like you to know how fantastic I felt after my luxurious exfoliation, massage and moisturising treatment last week. I felt so revitalised, glowing and energetic and ready to face day to day pressures easily. The exfoliation left me feeling clean and fresh and the massage certainly diminished the knots in my neck and back and I felt I could move more easily. I look forward to my next appointment in the next future.
    Deb. Special Events business co-owner

    I have been coming to Sue for over a year and half now. I absolutely love the variety of options and services that can accommodate how I’m getting along at the present time. I find Sue to be so warm and very comfortable to be around. I can talk to her about anything and we have gotten to know one another very well. She has the perfect temperament for her many services as she is very soft spoken and calming. When you walk through that door, you know you are in for the most relaxing, enjoyable experience that you will ever have in your life. I couldn’t imagine going to anyone else for any of the services that she provides.

    When I’m stressed, I love getting the remedial massage to smooth out the tension spots on my back, shoulders and neck. She uses warm towels on the tension spots and it relaxes your whole body so you can enjoy the rest of your massage. I have on many occasions fallen asleep and snored my head off.

    Approx every 3 months I like to add an ear candling onto my remedial massage to clear out any blockages that occur. Sue starts off with doing a face and head massage to loosen up the wax and to get you relaxed for the job ahead. You hear crackling and popping in your ear but you are so relaxed that you don’t even notice it. Once she has finished with the ear candling, Sue shows you what has come out of your ears so you can tell first hand why it is that you can’t hear. I love it! You don’t realize how muffled people are and how loud you talk until you have this done. You will be amazed!

    I usually get the spray tan in the summer so that I don’t have to sit in the sun and bake to death. You have a variety of colors to choose from depending on how dark you want to go. I usually combine this with a massage and body scrub beforehand so the spray tan looks very natural. The best part is that there are no harsh chemicals in the product so you know what is going on your skin. I then buy the tanning lotion to prolong the effect of the spray tan which just gives you that long lasting golden glow. When I get this combination, I always feel like a million bucks and my husband can’t keep his hands off me. This is a must have for total luxury when you have somewhere to go or just want to give yourself a pick me up. Total bliss!

    I buy many organic products for myself and my husband. We enjoy knowing we are not clogging our pores with unnecessary chemicals that can potentially cause more harm than good. Firstly, I use the Mukti cleansing lotion in the shower or every second day I give my face a great scrub with Mukti gentle facial exfoliant to clean out the pores, then Mukti Hydrating Floral Blend to cool and uplift my skin (it’s also great because you don’t use very much moisturizer so it lasts twice the amount than if you didn’t use it), then Mukti Aloe Vera Moisturizer and in the evening Mukti Re-Hydrating facial oil in the never ending wrinkles to smooth them out and hydrate them. I have got my lovely husband onto these products as he is a panel beater and his face gets so dirty that he needs to give it a very good clean and moisturize as he deals with chemicals and dust everyday. He uses the Mukti cleansing lotion and Mukti gentle facial exfoliate in the shower and moisturizes with the Mukti Aloe Vera moisturizer. When he needs to have a shave he uses Mukti Shaving Gel. He finds that it doesn’t dry out his face and he never gets razor rash as it glides over his face and head (he is bald) with ease. His face turns out nice and soft with no nicks or cuts. We both love the smells of each of the products as they have different essential oils which are very calming and refreshing. You just know that your skin loves you!

    The best treatment I saved to last. The green mud mask for your body is to die for. I sometimes have a body scrub then I get the green body mask that leeches the toxins out of your body. Sue wraps your whole body up in warm towels like a mummy then leaves you to relax and enjoy the warmth. This is amazing. Never in your life will you feel more relaxed, cleaned out of toxins and just naturally beautiful. You then have a shower with the many organic products and when you come back I get a massage to top everything off. Do you know what total relaxation feels like? If you don’t then you need to have this!

    Nowadays, everyone is so stressed and on the go that taking the time out to stop and refresh yourself is a must. Starting off with a massage or buying one of the many products that Sue has can start making you feel better about yourself. It is important to you, friends and family. You will be a happier person for treating yourself and everyone around you will notice the difference. Slow down and enjoy being you! You won’t regret it!
