After suffering from a debilitating lower back injury for more than 10 years, and a neck and shoulder complaint that
has bothered me on and off for even longer, I discovered a blessing called Surapa.
I was referred to Surapa by a friend in 2007 after having another lower back episode. I almost didn’t book the appointment because
over the years I had tried many different therapists and had gained little or no improvement or pain relief. To be honest, I had no
expectation that Surapa would be any different from all the others, but out of desperation I went along and tried a massage from Surapa,
and boy am I glad that I did!
It was the best massage I had ever had and the first of many since. For the first time in years my back started to feel better and I was
able to walk around and exercise without it feeling like an ironing board. My neck and shoulders also love Surapa’s magic hands and I can’t
even remember when I have felt this good.
I have referred Surapa to many of my Friends and Family, and not one of them has had anything other than praise for her. She is professional,
kind, caring and humble, and I believe she works from the right energetic space, a truly good human being who actually wants to help people.

I had been suffering from a tennis elbow for about 7 months and was attending a physiotherapist twice a week
with little or no improvement. Almost all movement of my right arm was extremely painful. I was also suffering pain at night which
was interfering with my sleep.
I was recommended to Surapa and she “worked her magic” from my fingertips right up into the shoulder and neck areas. At the end
of the first session with Surapa the relief from the pain was amazing and after several more visits it has almost gone entirely.
There is no doubt that Surapa’s massage really assisted the healing of my elbow, and I would have no hesitation in recommending
her services to anybody unlucky enough to suffer from tennis elbow.

I’d like to make note of the wonderful work done by Surapa from Thai Massage Therapies. I have been enjoying
massage for more than twenty years now, and have been to many so called experts. May I say here, I have never known any better
than Surapa. Her dedication and application is the best.
She actually listens to what you need. I have always found most masseurs do what they want, usually spending too much time on my
back when I don’t have any problems there. I work out at the gym, spend long days at work standing on a concrete floor and suffer
from tired fatigued legs in particular. After a visit to Surapa followed by a good night rest, I feel alive again.
She really is without a doubt THE BEST masseuse I have ever met, and I highly recommend her work and her pleasant friendly style
to anyone in need of some stress relief.

I can attest to the benefits of Surapa’s massage for neck, back and migraine pain. I had suffered from a sore
back which resulted in me getting bad migraine headaches for several years. The deep tissue and relaxation massage Surapa specialises
in has relieved my pain and stoped my migraines.
Surapa has an unbelievable ability to read the body and locate the source of the problem, providing instant relief. She has helped
to promote healing within my body for deep tissue problems that no-one else has been able to address.
An amazing massage therapist, I frequently refer my friends to her. Now that my migraines are under control, I continue to visit
Surapa regularly for a massage to improve my sense of well being and aid in body and mind relaxation.

After meeting SURAPA I thought will she have the power.
I sure found out after about an hour.
When she did my back I thought I was mangled.
When she did my neck I thought I was strangled.
She also did my legs and my feet.
I could hardly walk back down the street.
I was screaming for mercy squirming and wriggling.
But she still tortured me and started giggling.
(Hope my poem gives you a laugh.)
After going everywhere for massages but never getting the treatment that I needed, I finally tracked down Surapa. As a massage therapist myself,
I know exactly what I want and Surapa has the necessary skills required to provide a quality massage.
Surapa is talented, thorough, kind and caring.
I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of treatment.

When Surapa asked me if I would write a testimonial for her, I was a little unsure as to what to write, having never written one before.
After giving it a bit of thought, I decided instead of writing a formal review, I would simply answer this one question: “Why do I go there?” and the answer is:
I go there because of
1. The informal and welcoming environment.
2. The great price and use of quality products.
3. Surapa's down to earth personality.
4. I never feel my session being time-boxed or rushed through.
5. The massages are better than what is available elsewhere in Melbourne.
6. Surapa will complete the therapy, even if it takes longer at no extra charge. (People who have had this experience at other places will understand what I mean.)
And yes, I highly recommend her.

As a remedial therapist I try to exercise the usual cautions to prevent injury to myself, but I find that
occasionally I am in need of some treatment also. Performing self treatment is often limited and none resolving.
I had the very good fortune to meet Surapa at a course we both attended. I was immediately impressed by her practical knowledge
and caring nature.
When I am having problems that I am unable to address myself, Surapa is the person that I rely on to get me back in shape. Surapa
is a truly impressive therapist and her skills an innate blessing.

I have been nursing for 16 years and over time have developed a chronic back condition. I have had several debilitating
episodes which have severely impacted on my ability to work and function normally.
Surapa has that wonderful ability to ease the pain, relax the body and restore mobility, enabling me to continue my active routine.

Before I discovered Surapa at Thai Massage Therapies, I had been suffering with severe shoulder pain for several
months. I had tried a number of different masseurs and types of massage with no improvement or pain relief.
Remarkably after my first visit with Surapa I had significant pain relief and after 2 days almost no pain at all. Now whenever my
shoulder starts to bother me I know I can find help with Surapa.
I can highly recommend both Surapa and Thai Massage Therapies.

In January, 2006, I awoke one morning with a severe pain at the base of my neck. Thinking it was just a chill, I
let it go untreated for about a week but it became progressively worse. I attended an osteopath 4 times with little gain, so I tried
another osteopath, still no gain. My GP said very little, except to take Panadol. I was unable to drive my car because sometimes I
could not turn my head to the left at all. I also tried a Chinese naturopath but it continued to get worse.
I had also hurt my lower back in the past- an ongoing problem. I told my GP about a severe pain that I had in my left leg and the
best he could come up with was to take anti-inflammatory medication. After about 9 months had elapsed, and seeing Surapa's advertisement
in the local paper, I made an appointment. She worked on me for about 2 hours, explaining all the time what she was doing and why.
My neck was cured on the first visit, left leg cured in 1/2 hour at the next appointment and my lower back pain has improved dramatically.
Subsequently, I have recommended Surapa too many of my close friends and they also have had great success. It is obvious to me that
Surapa is beyond doubt the only person from whom I have had treatment of this type that knows exactly what she is doing. As well as her
unique ability, she is kind compassionate and caring.
