After knee surgery, I developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), a nerve condition that made…read morerecovery even more difficult. Massage therapy is known to help with CRPS, but finding a therapist who actually understands it is a challenge. Most places I tried had no knowledge of the condition or how to work with it safely. Kara at Body Advantage is the exception. She is knowledgeable, attentive, and knows exactly how to work with CRPS and its sensitivities. She is the only therapist I fully trust with my condition and the only place I go regularly. If you are dealing with any pain condition and have struggled to find the right place, I cannot recommend Kara and Body Advantage enough!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I was being too selfish. Besides, I've now made my every other week appointments for the next year and have littel to fear. Under their care, I'm in less pain. I'm ready to share both Kara and Julie. I'm willing to accept that they can care for others, while still caring for me. Trust me, they know more about your body than you do, especially how it is all connnected. Today, I had a sore shoulder from tossing the frizbee constantly for my dog. Sure, I got the deep tissue treament for my shoulder... but also for that musle below my thumb! I've been to massage therapists for 40 years and I've also been to a lot of physical therapists. Julie and Kara have done more for me than all the others combined. They are both superheros to me!

I think I've fallen asleep (and probs also accidentally tooted) during every single one of my sessions. Her space is quiet and relaxing. Terri can be a little chatty if you prefer minimal to no conversation during your massages. She's also so nice. I used to ride my bike over to her spot all the time, and sometimes she'd offer to give me a ride back with my bike.

Terri is by far the BEST massage therapist I have EVER had, and this is coming from another massage…read moretherapist. Most therapists have used pressure on me which was either: a. Perfect for my upper body and shoulders, but too light for my lower back. b. Too deep for my upper back and just right for my lower back. Usually communication with past therapists caused them to switch between both modes. Terri, however, is one of the few therapists who has been able to discern the difference in pressure required in these two areas without me saying a word. I was especially impressed with her anatomical knowledge of the gluteal region, and how she easily found my trigger points and the tension causing my sciatica from being on my feet all day. Her technique was very soothing, relaxing and therapeutic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

This is a review of Erika Phillips, the owner/operator of Rize Therapy. My wife and I are regular…read moreclients of hers. We highly recommend Erika, for three reasons: (1) Erika is very knowledgeable. She has a serious background in physical therapy and sports medicine. You can go to her for a chichi massage if you want, but she offers much more. She can help you recover from injuries, reach your athletic goals, and otherwise improve yourself. After each session, she sends you a set of stretches to help address your condition (whatever it may be), which tides you over until the next massage. I went to her with a stiff neck and plantar fasciitis, and she has helped me make great strides with both. (2) Erika is very strong and has great technique. I'm 6'3" and 220 lbs., and have super tight neck and shoulder muscles from my desk job and from weightlifting. When I first met her, I thought: "There's no way." But then she wrestled those knots in my neck and traps into submission. Even more impressive, she did something to the bottom of my foot to make my plantar fasciitis virtually go away. (3) Erika is very nice. She is kind and personable and professional. Her massage room is a quiet little sanctuary, and my wife and I both look forward to being on her table.

Jennifer is an incredible healer, takes just enough time to get to know what you're looking for but not so much that it seems to take time away from your massage. She's certainly one of the friendliest massage therapists I've ever met and they tend to be a friendly bunch but she's head and shoulders above the rest. Simply put, go see her if you need top notch bodywork but please, please leave my spot open! =)

I'm not sure what it is that makes one massuese better than the other, but there is definitely a difference. The pressure and technique that Yvonne has is great, I also enjoy the qarm towel she places over my feet. Nice touch, especially in the winter. The studio is located in an office building, but that's fine with me since the room is nice and quiet. I've gone to a few places for facials and massages that were located either in a salon or next to places that were loud, and it does take away from the experience and relaxation, but I haven't had that issue here. It's always been nice a quiet here.

There are cubicles on the first floor, her studio is on the second. She came down to let me in, and then took me upstairs - her room is very relaxing and you immediately forget that you're in an office :) The massage itself was good, although more relaxing that muscle-working. I will say though, I recieved the best foot massage of my life. She was very... businesslike. Friendly, but curt. I think I was her last client of the day, so that may have something to do with it. I just got the vibe that she wanted to be done, which is understandable, but detracts from the massage experience. Overall, I had a good experience and when I need some stress relief, I will be back.

At the age of 27, I had a life changing back injury that led to surgery 2 years later. A year…read morepost-op I was still dealing with nerve damage, stenosis, & loss of range of motion. I'd really lost hope in ever feeling better physically or mentally. Massage was suggested to me & I began my search to find a practitioner. I spent another year trying out 3 masseuses a few times each. I wanted to find someone who synced with my body & knew what I needed when I couldn't voice it myself. I was in pain & needed relief. I wasn't wanting someone whose services were like a menu that I could randomly walk in on a Friday & get a massage then show up 4 months later for another. I knew I needed consistent therapeutic massage that would help make my quality of life better. Another MT referred me to their co-worker, Alicia, when they had to cancel a session. Upon meeting her we spoke about what was going on with my body & things I had tried before such as acupuncture & physical therapy. I was not expecting that since this was to be a one-off visit due to schedule change. As a larger person, I am constantly aware of people associating my size with my pain & medical issues. When in fact my injury was a major contributor to my weight gain. Alicia made me feel comfortable. I wasn't trying to minimize myself & was able to fully relax so she could work on me. During the massage she was able to work on my sacral/lumbar area as well as my hips. I had no idea what different types of massages consisted of or even what type I was looking for. She just knew what & where I needed her to work. Some areas were relaxing to the point I would doze, some very targeted to stretch & release tightness, others were rhythmic & flowing. All of it was what I needed. I left that day & immediately booked another appointment, then another & another. When Alicia left the business I went with her. When she branched out on her own, I followed. I had found that person that through their hands & wonderful personality could improve my well being & health. It's been 13 years now. I look forward to my massages with Alicia every 3-4 weeks. I am grateful that I can come into her cozy peaceful office, have great conversations, relax & find some pain relief. I honestly feel that I would not be able to function without Alicia. She is indeed magical with her hands & truly is a beautiful soul, insightful, intuitive, caring human being.
