"Elizabeth has a gift for what she does. Her expertise in abdominal and pelvic massage, her ability to provide, a certain comfort level, and the sense of safety she creates, amounts to extraordinary care. As someone with deep sexual trauma issues, for me to be able to trust someone enough to do this type of work speaks to her skill level and her presence. Highly recommended. "

" The best massage I've ever had. Elizabeth has healing hands and a deep understanding of anatomy. If you want not just to relax, but to be restored, you will not be disappointed. ”

" Elizabeth is a wonderful therapist. I've worked with her for few years, and her attentiveness, interest, care, and knowledge are all outstanding. I'm generally slow to trust anyone, particularly about intimate details about my health—even qualified professionals. But Elizabeth made the process as easy as possible, and I'm deeply grateful for all of her support and information. She's helped shift my menstrual cycles from intense, debilitating pain (body aches, migraines, etc) to ease and comfort (almost no pain, no migraines). My quality of life has improved tremendously. Highly, highly recommended! "

“I have noticed such a huge difference in my physical, mental, and emotional health since I began receiving care from Elizabeth back in October 2020. As someone who deals with pain due to endometriosis and adhesions, her Maya abdominal techniques have been life changing, and she's given me all of the knowledge and tools to continue that work with self-care at home in between sessions. Not only have I experienced decreased overall pain, but I've also felt more balanced and centered, and she has helped to relieve tension in other key areas (like my low back, neck, and jaw) that I've always struggled with and have long sought help to address. I love that not every session is the same—she always assesses my body's unique needs and tries different techniques to continue my progress toward increased health and wellness. I'm incredibly grateful to have her as a resource and practitioner!”

"Elizabeth is an incredibly intuitive, sensitive woman and amazing masseuse . She took the time to discuss with me two problem areas and once she gained that knowledge she applied successful techniques that I had never felt before. For my wrist carpel tunnel, she worked on my forearms breaking down hard cartilage that immediately reaped benefits. And with my lower back pain, after her intense body work, I forgot where the pain used to come from. Elizabeth creates a safe space and a stress free environment that allowed me to entirely relax and truly enjoy my massage. I couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and if I lived closer to her, then I’d get regular massages and look forward to it. Australia is lucky to have Elizabeth and it won’t be long for the locals to recognize her beautiful spirit and expertise."

" Where to begin? Elizabeth is such an incredible healer. I am so thankful for her and her work. She's is intuitive, mindful, gentle and will make sure you feel comfortable and safe. I visited her in hopes to help with my horrible menstrual pain and constipation. (I used to be bed ridden during my periods!) After working with Elizabeth and using the tools she's taught me for at home care, my periods are so much lighter and less painful. Elizabeth, I cannot thank you enough!!!! "

" From my first Arvigo abdominal massage I noticed an immediate feeling of balance physically within my lower abdominal region. Before the massage I felt off balanced, the weight (from the fibroid) was sitting to right side and I just felt off. I also felt bloated and would have to relieve my bladder often. I didn’t know how much discomfort I was in until post massage!!! Not only do I feel more centered, the feeling of bloat has gone from a 9 in discomfort to a 2 (and rarely do I feel that now). I like that Elizabeth provided me with daily massages in able to do on my own as well as reading material that further explains different practices I can incorporate. She’s gentle while being effective, and very attentive. Grateful to have found her. "

" Elizabeth is an incredibly skilled masseuse. At first glance, she was able to detect postural imbalances, and after one session, she completely relieved the built-up stress and tension in my back, hips, and shoulders. I was very impressed at how my posture improved after just one session, and I have never felt lighter in my life! She also made some very practical, preventative recommendations which has changed my life. I recommend Elizabeth 100%! " Dr. Marie Nissanka: Senior Advisor
" I highly recommend Elizabeth! She is a wonderfully intuitive healer. In just one visit, my irregular cycle began to shift for the better and it has only improved since then! It was like a miracle. I experienced terrible cramping along with other symptoms for 20 years and all of them dramatically decreased or even stopped within two sessions. My cycle has completely changed and now it’s on track! Elizabeth is very supportive and nurturing during and after each session. She has a gentle spirit with so much wisdom to offer. I love that I left each visit with a little more understanding of what is going on in my body and even an easy exercise I can do at home. She is constantly educating herself which I believe is so important when it comes to the human body and spirit. Being on the table is very vulnerable and intimate, but I trust her completely and I know that the benefits are going to be amazing! "

"Elizabeth is one of the best and most knowledgable massage therapist I have ever met. I went to a bunch of specialist and Dr.'s and she was the only one that could cure me. She is kind and will take great care of you. I promise you won't regret it. She is way more than just a masseuse. I swear she knows more than most doctors. She has traveled the world and studied many medicines and treatment. I will keep going forever. You are in good hands if you go to Belly and Body Care. Thank you Elizabeth for all that you have done for me."

" I fell on my tailbone and was hurting pretty bad. Elizabeth had the skills to professionally help me in this private area and I felt very comfortable as she worked on me. She softened the scar tissue that had formed and eventually I had no more pain. Thankful. " ~ O.S., USA
"OMGoodness, I’ve never had such a great massage, ever and I have over 20 years’ experience. Elizabeth is truly intuitive and really got into my point/areas. When I asked for “a bit up/down/in” she went straight to it somehow and then worked it – it felt sooooo good. Plus she has tools and methods that are fantastic and I’ve not experienced before. She heard me and that is not only unusual but to me it’s priceless. Thanks so much Elizabeth!!" ~ Cass G, Wellington, NZ
"The session I received from Elizabeth was incredibly helpful. I had been suffering from a sharp pain in my neck, which she fixed within a minute of locating a subtle misalignment - one of those magical 'click' moments - I have not had any pain there since. She also managed to free me of tension I had somehow stubbornly been holding onto for years (despite yoga and various other attempts to resolve the issue myself) in my lower back and buttocks. She is clearly very experienced in her field of bodywork and I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone in need of a great massage or more specialized bodywork therapy. I felt very safe and nurtured in her hands. In addition to this, Elizabeth seems very knowledgeable on holistic health in general - she kindly took extra time to answer my questions on topics such as dietary choices or menstrual health. I appreciated her kindness, great work, patience and apparent passion for helping people find their way to health and optimal well-being. Thanks again Elizabeth! Please keep me posted on any future trips up to Auckland - I would love to book another session with you..." ~Sonia Wilson, Auckland, NZ
"The Arvigo sessions I received from Elizabeth have truly changed my life. I had experienced extremely painful periods throughout the years including intense PMS (fatigue, mood swings, headaches, etc.). After receiving mayan abdominal massage and implementing a self care regime, my cycles have improved drastically. Elizabeth is attentive, strong, knowledgable, intuitive, informative, and nurturing. I am forever grateful for her bestowing this wonderful gift into my life!! I highly recommend her for all of your bodywork needs." ~ Emerald Lane, Atlanta, GA- USA
"I had a great experience in just one session with Elizabeth. Initially I felt more open and less tight in some areas. The next morning, I felt like the positive side effects of the treatment were still in action working in subtle ways particularly around my digestion. Elizabeth not only provided a good Arvigo treatment, but was also able to answer and address other questions and concerns I had related to menstruation and digestive complaints." ~ Kim Sieb, Takaka, New Zealand.
"Elizabeth is amazing - I always feel lighter and brighter after seeing her - she has helped relieve chronic pain in my neck, lower back and knees and I am so appreciative for this as I had previously thought nothing much would improve the situation. She is one of the best masseuses I have come across in 20 years. Highly recommended." ~ Zayn Goldy, Wellington, NZ
"Elizabeth is a very knowledgable practitioner. She always meets my needs. Especially her abdominal massage made a huge difference how I feel. I highly recommend her." ~ Coco Kristen, Wellington, NZ
" I had the ABSOLUTE pleasure of having an arvigo massage with Elizabeth. As a massage therapist I am exceptionally picky about who I go to for treatment. With Elizabeth I am in the BEST hands. I am safe, nurtured and given 100% attention. Elizabeth explains everything so carefully. I had the best 2 hours. I felt free, grounded, relaxed and ready to take on the world. The best part is I didn't need to take any painkillers my last cycle for the first time in 30 years
during my menses. Looking forward to the next treatment! THANK YOU! Elizabeth. " - Sam Walker, Waikato, NZ
"Love what you do. So professional. So kind. So safe. You are one AWESOME lady and I thank you for the changes you make." ~ Sam Walker, Waikato, NZ
" Elizabeth really seems to have a knack for honing in on problem spots in the body. Highly recommend her bodywork! " ~ Abby Joslin, Atlanta, GA, USA.
"Female friends in the US, when Elizabeth is next in the states, you will want to experience this Arvigo Mayan abdominal massage. I found it to be an incredible experience! She also shows you about self care. I have a longstanding hip issue. Having a two-night, back to back set of sessions with first my shiatsu person and then Elizabeth for Arvigo, I was able to walk nearly normal for a day. That was phenomenal. Of course to effect longterm change, I am in ongoing care. Elizabeth has good, intuitive knowledge in her hands as well as the training to give very good care." ~ Beth Akinto, Athens, GA, USA.
"Five months ago, shortly after receiving an Arvigo Therapy Massage, I found out I was pregnant after trying for 18 months. It’s all very exciting and we just found out we were having a girl! When I had my scan, the sonographer who was also checking my ovaries, was surprised I had even conceived because there were so many cysts on each ovary from my PCOS, so I feel really lucky. The doctors could actually see a tiny path where an egg had somehow travelled out or had been pushed out of the left ovary! Amazing what technology can show you. Not sure if it's a coincidence or your magic work but I just wanted to say thank you Elizabeth!" - JR, Coromandel, NZ
"Great service! experienced, healing hands!" ~ Ofelia Sierra, Atlanta, GA, USA
"I recently had a massage with Elizabeth and found it to be not only relaxing and theraputic, but also very healing physically and energetically. Elizabeth knows exactly where to access the tight spots and blockages, and facilitates a huge release. I expected to be quite sore the next day, but was not – possibly partly due to the recommended warm bath that I had that evening. I felt as if my energies were flowing freely again, as if my life blood had been restored – this was a huge and permanent change. I felt very relaxed with Elizabeth, and totally respect both her abilities and her intuition, all completing a great therapist whom I would not hesitate to recommend." ~ Jenny Rowden, Hamilton, NZ
