I have a low back condition that I have had so many times now that I can tell with almost certainty that when it’s as bad, then I am likely stuck with it for at least 2- 3 weeks. Last night my low back pain was so bad I could barely stand, sitting wasn’t much better, for the last two nights I’ve been unable to turn in bed without pain waking me up, and getting up in the morning or to go to the loo has been agony.
When I got to Raziya’s house, she asked me to lie on her treatment couch (which was a real struggle) and proceeded to do what she called ‘pulsing’, a very pleasant rocking of various parts of my body. I did notice that her hands were extraordinarily hot though, at several points I could feel the heat through the towels! The next thing she did was get me in a comfortable position and just laid her hands over the painful area, (which was like having a hot water bottle there!) and did nothing but breathe in a very relaxing way!
I spent the rest of the evening in my usual agony and creaked to bed.
At 5.30am I woke to the strange sensation of… no pain! I laid there for a while gingerly testing various movements, but nothing hurt! Just a vague ache where the pain had been! I decided to get up, and just got straight up with no pain! To say I’m gob smacked is an understatement. I fully expected this pain to last at least the next two weeks, and never has it gone from so bad to so good in such a short time!
I don’t know what she did, but this is definitely beyond coincidence. I can only say I am amazed and grateful."

Many thanks again. I certainly feel more relaxed and the neck tension has definitely eased.”

“I was so surprised that such a gentle touch could create such deep results. Getting small things, like the ears massaged was especially relaxing. Thank you.”

Watching her ocean like style really reminded me of how important it is to relax & flow when doing massage.
How you feel when you are doing a treatment is passed through your hands, it is essential that you are comfortable and happy. Raziya said to "feel the dance in your massage". Drawing from this, it reminded me of sensations of doing Qi Gong, 5 rhythm dance and yoga. I can now bring these wonderful aspects in my life into the art of my massage techniques. Since our session my clients have noticed my massage has improved. A friend, Rosie, who is a massage therapist I exchange treatments with, is now wanting to train with Raziya since feeling this transformation in my massage.
I hope to train with Raziya's Massage and Bodywork training school in Lomi Lomi massage this year. I have also noticed after seeing Raziya I always feel more determined and energised, she is a life coach and I guess that's why :) Thank you Raziya with love" Gayle Fletcher
“Thank you for a fabulous massage course in November. I’ve spent my Christmas budget saving for a massage table, so my family will have to have my massage practice for pressies!”
Sally Priday I felt the day was arranged perfectly. Firstly, the introduction, giving us a little information on the history and benefits of massage followed by a very clear step by step demonstration on a small section of the massage routine. Then being able to experience and perform those movements on each other before moving on. The handbooks are extremely informative without being blinded with science. The instruction for each movement is very clear for us to refer to when need be. We both felt very comfortable and relaxed from the moment we arrived. I do hope many more couples will benefit from your expertise and ease of teaching.
