This was my first time at the particular foot rub/massage place and it was rather interesting…read more Honestly, I would give them four stars, but there were a couple uncomfortable things for me. $40 gets you a great hour long foot rub which was incredibly relaxing, granted it was somebody else next to me. And while my feet were soaking, my knees were bent as I laid down on a bed. This is my own preference, but I have bad knees, so bending my knees for a good 20 minutes while they were soaking in the relaxing water And therapeutic bubbles for my feet on my knees. One could not tell they were with other people in the same room because you wore a mask that was beautifully scented and very relaxing. I close my eyes even though I had a mask on but I could still randomly hear other people. Lol like I said for 40 bucks you can't really beat the price, but there were some parts that were a bit uncomfortable. The massage was adequate for my feet and neck and back, but I did have a knot in my shoulder on the left side, but the lady didn't really get the knot out. So I went to my acupuncturist instead. When I saw my acupuncturist at Gen Acupuncture in Sunnyvale California, she was able to get the knot out of my back/shoulder area. I digress, for Petaluma, and 40 bucks cash. Perhaps next time I'll get a full body massage and get a private room so I can fully lay down and just bring more cash with me next time. They charged more for credit card use so I was lucky I had cash on me at the time. Yet, This can't be beat, but because I'm picky I think I'll just stick to a pedicure and my acupuncturist for help in Sunnyvale. My pedicurist is in Campbell, California at Thao's Organic Nails. You can Yelp both companies.

Me and my boyfriend were renting a house in Guerneville for the weekend and decided to get massages. We scheduled with Christina over the phone, and she came out to the house we were renting. She arrived on time and brought everything needed for the massage (table, music, etc). We each got an hour massage, and we were both very happy with Christina's work. She talked with each of us to see what type of pressure we liked and where we had issues in our bodies, and tailored her massage for each of us. She found tension in places I didn't even realize were tense and left me feeling super relaxed and pampered! We would both highly recommend Christina. read more

I feel…read morelike I have been searching my whole life for a massage therapist that gives me the feeling of where have you been all my life. I have gotten many massages but they were all just ok. Some were scared and were too easy on the pressure. Some were great but couldn't find my spots I needed gone over. With Jo Anne I fell completely In love with her massage methods. I always felt like a new person leaving. Like I got a reset button pushed. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Unlike the corporate or chain…read morespa experience, it felt like visiting a friend you've known for a long time for a session of healing. Her rates are about 30-40% less than the spas I was checking out online in Calistoga and Petaluma. She works out of her home, which is lovely and has a lot of sunny, calming colors. You'll see the mailbox numbers to know you've arrived, then park in her driveway up the hill. Jo Ann was there to greet me, ask about problem areas in her kitchen, then take me to her massage room which has some chrystals and a comfortable, luxurious heated table and blankets. The massage was really relaxing and easy to stay in the moment, and one of the most interesting I've had. I lived in Thailand and have had a lot of Thai massages, and Jo Ann did incorporate some of the stretching/tractioning movements and accupressure common in Thai massage throughout the session. She is formally trained in PUSH, and has really strong hands so can also accomodate deep tissue. The medium pressure I requested was harder-handed and used different technique than Swedish, but she assured she could accomodate that too. One of the best parts of our session was her use of hot stones on almost every body part. You can practically feel your muscles opening up and unknotting. I also enjoyed the strategically placed warm washcloths - a head wrap at the end made me feel like I was floating in a cocoon. Jo Ann can also accomodate cupping, though I didn't try it. She did a full 90 minutes, which I appreciated since sometimes 90 minutes means 10 mins to chat about problem areas and 10 mins to get dressed at the end. She had a glass of water waiting, and we sat down in her living room and chatted for 15 mins about life and purpose as a hummingbird flitted up to the window for a drink. I'm telling you, this woman is magical and she's cultivated an environment to match her personality and aura. Go see Jo Ann!

Jordanna Glueckauf, CMT, MPH, CYT

Jordanna is the best massage therapist I've encountered…read more She's extremely thoughtful, careful, and just flat out talented. I've been seeing her for over a year, and I've never once had a session that was anything less than stellar. Many massage therapists, even very skillful ones, will occasionally find themselves "just going through the motions," but Jordanna has always found the time and energy to put serious thought into our sessions. I'm always amazed at how willing she is to take some extra time to figure out what's going on with my body and mind and how she can help me. She's wonderful at managing all the little factors that can cause distractions during a session (noise level, draping issues, etc.), and making sure I'm able to drift off and let myself relax. She's also a great communicator. Jordanna is interested in learning from any and all sorts of massage traditions and modalities, but is also serious about making sure there is some scientific or concrete basis to believe that her methods can be genuinely beneficial. Basically I bring this up to point out that while she has interest in methods that some may consider "alternative," I've never once felt uncomfortable discussing my thoughts or skepticism of a given practice, and she always adapts her practices to my needs and interests. In this way she's introduced me to techniques that I may never have sought out previously, with wonderful results. I've found that massages from her have become not just a physical experience; they are also mood- and mind-altering in ways that help me to manage and improve my own health in the long-term. If you find this to sound a bit too grand or mystical, I'm confident Jordanna would be completely able to understand your skepticism, laugh with you, and tailor a session towards the more grounded and physical side of massage. I could go on forever but I think you get the point.

I am so grateful to have found Jordanna! I've gotten…read moremassages in the past and never found someone that left me wanting to come back regularly, until I met Jordanna. She is so talented, and most importantly, leaves me feeling so amazing, that I've made a commitment to see her monthly. Once things started reopening in spring of 2021, I decided to resume my search for a great massage therapist. At that time, I was just looking for someone to help me relax a bit and destress from a rough several months. I was referred to Jordanna by one of my own clients. When I met Jordanna, she was so professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel extremely comfortable. I felt like I had met her before because conversation flowed so naturally. At the beginning of my first session, she took a good amount of time to learn more about my goals as they relate to massage, my life/lifestyle, and my body. I've never had a massage therapist take the time to chat with me so thoroughly beforehand. The massage itself was absolutely amazing. It was the perfect amount of feel-good relaxation while focusing on releasing tension in "problem areas". When I was done, Jordanna took the time again to discuss my body, how I felt and what she observed. I learned so much about my body from the first session alone, and continue to be impressed by Jordanna's knowledge. What she does is better described as body work, rather than massage, as I get so much out of my sessions with her and she teaches me so much. I am now a "hooked" regular, and Jordanna still takes the time to thoroughly talk to me about my body before and after each session. This is the best gift that I've given myself; the commitment to seeing Jordanna regularly. My body (and mind) is so happy! I can't speak more highly of her. Jordanna is the best.

I've had lots of treatments from deep sports massage to cupping to stretching. To me the most important part is the quality of massage Marcie and Nicole give. I have not found this quality anywhere else. I play ice hockey, in the last years I've done ultra running among other sports, and am extremely physically active. Having support from them and pinpointing what's going on in my body when I'm having trigger points, pain, or even when I'm feeling great has been the most important part of staying an athlete. They helped me work through endometriosis pain and knee injury, and now as a 26 year old I'm feeling great to play ice hockey again! The space is extremely calming and clean. Nicole and Marcie use good smelling oils (I'm very smell sensitive so this is important to me) and address my needs individually and effectively! I always leave absolutely relaxed and happy. Their facility recently moved upstairs to a bigger location in the building. I'm extremely thrilled this has allowed them to bring in Nicole, another massage therapist. Marcie books up fast and it's amazing to trust someone else at the same location for massage. Nicole is amazing and I feel extremely supported in this facility with the combined talents to get a holistic treatment. Additionally they now have a chiropractor and another man who does treatments like cool sculpting and Botox. I know people who have seen them both and love their treatments. I look forward to trying them as well! 100% recommend trying rejuvenate therapeutic and sports massage!
