I wanted just a 60 minute back massage because I was really tense from flying here to visit a friend. We started our day off getting breakfast after he picked me up from the airport. We went to the farmers daughter, honestly I don't know where to start. The corned beef hatch? Delicious yummyyyy altho I prefer my coffee with cream and sugar the coffee smelled so fresh I got it plain. Wasn't too hot so I was able to slug that puppy down. As we were driving back to his apartment I saw this establishment and said "boy I could use a massage" ok I was comfortable walking in. Good sign 1. The options fantastic. The massage? I still feel like I'm drunk. A+ highly suggest.

I visited Massage Sanctuary for the first time recently. I was overdue for some body work, and…read moresuffering an over whelming schedule, computer problems and recovering from an accident - I was very much in need of some body work. Unfortunately, the person I had scheduled my appointment with was sick, so on the day of the appointment she called to inform me that one of her co-workers, Rosemarie, had agreed to see me. I had a little bit of a hard time sorting out where to park, because it was dark when I arrived - NOTE: there's parking all around the building. The building is an amazing historic site in Acton - can't miss it! I was a little concerned when I arrived - the bathroom and massage studio were chilly, but Rosemarie had a heater on that had already warmed up the room and the massage table was warmed with an infrared blanket, so I was nice and toasty. Rosemarie gave me a fabulous massage - combining what I would best describe as Swedish technique and Reiki ( I believe she's a Reiki master). The end result left me feeling more relaxed and far less stressed! Reading the reviews, it seems that Massage Sanctuary has an extraordinary group of talented therapists who genuinely put their clients needs first - and thank you so much to Rosemarie for making room in your busy schedule for my outstanding massage! xoxo

This is a very different experience with others but still effective. Sarah led the Drum Circle and it was AMAZING! She is an engaging and knowledgeable instructor with an obvious passion for sharing the basics and nuances of drumming. I was a little apprehensive at first as everyone else had done this before but her easygoing and encouraging manner helped me slip into the session like a pro. This is a great activity if you are looking to learn something new and tap into that primal realm of existence in your soul. I'd also tried a Soundbath with Holly a couple of weeks ago. It was my first one and I learned I much prefer the resonance of the singing bowls to the other instruments but overall this was a pleasantly relaxing experience for me.

I reluctantly reached out to Concord Center Acupuncture in January to see how successful they had…read morebeen with depression and anxiety clients in the past. I was in a horrible deep dark depression for the past 5 months solid and was desperate. The gentleman that answered was the most wonderful man named Bhaird. To my surprise and delight, Bhaird stated that "Depression and anxiety are some of my favorite things to treat!". No professional had spoke with me enthusiastically about getting better up to that point. Rather, I was told by a psychologist a days earlier that I had "a really really LONG way to go before I would get better"!! Not Bhaird. He couldn't guarantee how quickly the treatments would work, but he knew if I listened to his suggestions, gave a few a try, and scheduled the appropriate number of sessions that I would in fact find relief. I had been having thoughts of ending my life. So I figured, "What did I have to lose?" I gave it a shot. I'm so thankful I did. Prior to having these treatments, I had completely lost control of myself. I was so nervous and depressed about EVERYTHING I didn't even want to leave my bed! I would fight through the week (and it was a real struggle), but spend all evenings and weekends in my bed, crying, desperate for life again. This went on for FIVE months straight. Three of those months I cried every single day multiple times a day. I'm not sure what caused it, but I truly feared that I would NEVER again feel like myself. Too much time had passed being in that strange state. Sometime in late November I stopped working out entirely (something I have done my entire life), started eating very poorly if at all, stopped seeing or even talking to most of my friends, and just had lost the essence of my entire being! After about five weeks of roughly 2 sessions per week, I had my very first "normal" day! I decided I would keep track of how many days I felt good in a row. Since that very day, I have yet to have one more "dark" or anxious day. In fact, today I am currently at day 77!!!! Not only do I feel "normal", I feel amazing!!! Furthermore, I'm not sure if this is a direct result of acupuncture itself or just a better attitude and lease on life after going to acupuncture, but I also started taking off at work and feeling extremely passionate about what I do. (Mind you that I wanted to quit my job when I first came to the center because "I was miserable there and I couldn't do it anymore") Between the acupuncture itself and the many tools and resources that Bhaird equipped me with to combat my negative self talk and irrational fears, I feel as though my mind body and soul have been restored once again to whole. It took time. I didn't notice much of anything immediately after a session which was always strange to me, but subtly the next day would be different. And slowly but surely by utilizing the tools I had been given on a daily basis, I jumped the hurdle. I got my fitness and health back in order, I started seeing my friends again, met new and wonder people and am currently having the time of my life! I highly recommend this service to anyone with any sort of ailment and especially those going though debilitating depression and or anxiety. Thank you Concord Center for offering your amazing service and helping me get my life back! You are the absolute BEST!
