1) The physical therapist gave her a massage as she likes.
2) The physical therapist gave her a massage as she likes it.

3) The physical therapist gave her a massage the way she likes.
4) The physical therapist gave her a massage the way she likes it.

Which of the above are grammatical?
Which are idiomatic?

Gratefully,
Navi
