These services have included reflexology , massage and many different facials. Christine was my most recent facial experience. I walked out feeling like my skin was rejuvenated, totally nurtured and I also left with an education on caring for my aging skin. Specifically, Christine placed a mask on me, other professionals might leave me alone to relax in the room, but she kept adding to the service- massaging my hands, arms and neck. She never missed an opportunity to give me further nurturing and relaxation. I truly appreciated that! This place is so convenient for any northshore resident and am pleased to highly recommend any service.

I have been a loyal client of TL Massage for MANY years. I originally found Tricia through my…read morechiropractor before she was at her Peabody location. I have been to 5 other massage therapists and Tricia is the best! She is an expert in her craft. Communication is key, so I always let her know if I have any changes in my health or if I have had an injury because she customizes the massage around me. I go 1-2 times per month. She is very polite and professional and the place is calm, quiet and super clean. My favorite is the hot stone massage (Always drink water afterwards to allow the toxins to flow out of your body!) because the heat allows my muscles to relax in order to accept the full benefits of the massage. Massage has helped with a variety of health issues that I have had, including tendinitis, arthritis, sciatica, pulled muscles, plantar fasciitis, etc. I usually buy a series of 3 and book ahead because her schedule fills up quickly. Sometimes, I splurge and get a body scrub on another day to shed my super dry skin. All of her other clients that I have talked to have said that she is the best as well (this is how I have found my landscaper, my dog walker and the lady who does my facials). If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Elaine, the owner, called and offered a free massage done by her in order to make up for the previous situation. My massage from Elaine was incredible! That is how a massage should be. Before I went in I wasn't even able to bend down or do much moving at all without hurting my lower back. Immediately after the massage I tested and attempted to stretch my hamstrings - I could! I can feel my muscles are still a little tight in the lower back but I know I can at least work on them now with stretching and yoga. I thought Elaine's quick response and suggestion to rectify the situation from before was completely wonderful and her massage made it all the better. Thank you, Elaine!

Being a massage therapist myself, I know a good massage therapist when I encounter one. Danielle is among the half a dozen (give or take a few) that I've met in my life that I feel deserves a five star rating. Her prices are incredibly reasonable and her treatment room is serene and comforting. Most importantly, the many massage techniques she has learned through the years honestly help to relieve pain. Add an incredibly down to earth personality to the mix and viola...you've hooked up with one fine massage therapist.

Oh Yeah! I have been…read morea client of Sara for a few years now. I try to treat myself to a few massages a year. My most recent massage was this past Sunday and was, as always, a totally relaxing and rejuvenating experience. Later that night, my head felt extremely clear, my skin felt clean and moisturized and I slept so sound that night. Sara is VERY generous with her massages. Her approach always has my achey muscles' best interest in mind. She finds my problem spots, educates me on what is happening and why these spots could be a problem. I have never felt rushed, and appreciate the time and care she puts into her work. The space at Ganesha is beyond perfect. The large window that looks out to the Atlantic Ocean is an idilic backdrop to an amazing experience. I highly recommend Sara to all my friends. She even complimented my feet as having a lot of muscle, who knew!?

If I could give this business negative 5 stars I would…read more When I planned a trip with my friend to go to Rockport last summer I booked my Massage and Tarot Card Reading before I even booked the hotel. Because those are two things I enjoy doing on vacation. I was thrilled to find a business like Ganesha that had Yoga and Massage and Readings all in one place. I booked appointments for myself and my friend directly with the Massage Therapist and Tarot Reader over a month in advance and was really looking forward to this part of the trip. On the day of our arrival in Rockport less than a few hours before our appointment time Mary Ellen the Tarot Reader called to tell me that she had to work unexpectedly at her other job. She said I could come to the private residence that she did what I assumed to be some type of care taking or home health aid work. I was not comfortable going to the home of someone I don't know(and I also found it strange that when I originally booked with her and requested that she come to our hotel she told me she only did readings at Ganesha and didn't travel - yet she wanted me to travel to her) so I told her that was not an option. We rescheduled for later in the weekend instead which wasn't going to work well for me but I really wanted to fit in a reading. After dinner we ended up passing a store front place for readings and when I found out they had availability at the time I had originally booked with MaryEllen - I called MaryEllen to cancel and went to this business instead and was VERY PLEASED with them. I wish I got their name - but they have a small store front right across from the Greenery Restaurant. As if my Tarot Reading experience wasn't bad enough - the next day I anxiously arrived for my massage. My friend went first. I was paying because it was a belated birthday present. We were just going to have 1/2 hour massages (originally booked an hour each but had called in the morning to ask if we could do 1/2 each instead due to time constraints and budget and Sara was very flexible in making an exception for us) but when my friend went in for her massage the 30 minutes went by very quickly, then 45, then it was an hour. Sara had forgotten that it was supposed to be a 30 minute massage rather than 60 minutes. So I was a little annoyed that we'd be shorter on time than planned and I'd be spending more than I hoped - but figured it was fine and I'd just remind her when I went in to stick to the 30 minutes for me. When my friend was done - Sara opened the door and let me in when my friend was in the changing room. She was tidying up the room and I expected that she'd be changing the sheets while we chatted and waited for my friend to go outside and wait. But she didn't change the sheets - instead she started to adjust them and straighten them out and said to me "do you mind if I use the same sheets for you?" I thought she was joking. I myself am a massage therapist. This is a HUGE NO NO. Not only does it tell me that she doesn't care enough about her clients to use a nice clean set of fresh sheets for each customer - but she hasn't the first clue about SAFE PRACTICE!!!! Oil is a vector and can transmit disease. You learn that the first day of massage school. When I told her this she told me that she was concerned about the environment and that she always asks people who come together to share sheets. I explained to her how wrong this was and she told me that she asks people first if they have any diseases. Not sure if she also consults MaryEllen the psychic when it comes to such matters since often people with Swine Flu or other health conditions can walk around for days before they show signs of illness. She told me that she would use a fresh set of sheets since I insist - but I told her that I couldn't even get a massage from her because she even asked me that question. If she cut corners there - where else did she not use safe practice considerations. Plus I know that I'd still be heated about it during the 30 minutes that I'd be trying to relax. I thanked her anyway restated one more time that if the board of health knew what she was doing they'd shut her down - and I left. My friend's experience was great. She enjoyed her massage throughly and you might too - just make sure you see her put a fresh set of sheets on for you if you go with a friend.
