I was feeling exhausted after a long, tiring week of work, so I decided to treat myself to a…read moremassage. I looked on Yelp for highly-rated spots nearby work and found this one. The prices seemed reasonable for the Los Altos area, so I booked my appointment for the 45-minute Deep Tissue massage. When I got there, they took me to my room right away even though I was a little early for my appointment. The room was nice and dark, very relaxing vibes. Rachel was my masseuse and she did an amazing job. She asked me where I wanted to focus and I mentioned that I needed some work on my neck, shoulders, and upper back. My favorite part of the massage was when she cracked my entire back with full force - it felt like everything loosened up in my back afterwards. Overall, would highly recommend if you need a decompressing and relaxing massage. Felt instantly better afterwards!

I wanted a therapeutic, rather than a relaxation, massage. I described the headache, shoulder &…read moreneck pain that has been bothering me then Kave provided exactly that! Massage therapy! After Kave's treatment, my entire body felt great and, specifically, my shoulders and neck felt warm, loose, and flexible again. Kave gave me advice for at-home continuing care, which I will follow, but I will also be happy to go to her again for more massage therapy. Note the new location for Amylgama Massage: 317 State Street in Los Altos. The entry for the massage studio is not in the warren of offices the surrounds Fiesta Vallarta but on the parking plaza between Main and State Streets. I looked all around those offices before I found the right place on the plaza :)

I had an odd problem of an aching upper left leg/hip along with an uneven foot strike (like my left leg was slightly shorter), and a persistently sore hamstring. Kave told me that even though the symptoms were on the left, the problem was in my right leg. That sounded odd to me, but after she focused her massage efforts on several seemingly random locations (but it was clear she wasn't guessing and knew exactly how to find them), over several sessions my symptoms lessened. She said that it would take seven sessions, after which improvement would continue for a couple of weeks, and that I should be symptom-free for at least seven months. She was spot on; a couple of weeks after my last session I was all better, and I didn't start getting a sore hamstring for 9 months; time to see her again. It might be worth mentioning that before seeing Kave I had been to a physical therapist at Kaiser who gave me various exercises; they didn't help.

When I paid for my 90-minute massage ($150) and handed the therapist a $20 cash tip, she visibly sighed and aggressively demanded that I tip her more. She even pressured me to put an additional tip on my credit card, completely ignoring their own "cash tips only" sign. Tipping should reflect the quality of the service, and a $20 tip on a subpar massage is more than fair. Shaming and cornering customers at the front desk for more money is incredibly unprofessional. I felt manipulated and stressed right after a relaxation treatment. Will not be returning.

Looking for the best massage of your life? I'm sure everyone is great at Verde Touch and I was…read morebrought to this place by a friend who highly recommended David (the owner). BUT this review is mainly about the AMAZING Kat! I started seeing her for a prenatal massage, then postnatal and now normally deep tissue. She's done trigger point with me which is when she holds a point and I breath into it as well as pin and stretch technique. Today we did deep release technique- psoas release. She has been influenced by Rolphing and has studied miofascial releasing technique. She specializes in Integrated Therapeutic, Motherhood / prenatal, Thai, Acupressure, East / West, Trigger point and Deep Tissue. I have been to A LOT of spas and seen many massage therapist all over the country / world and she's tied for first place in my book. Highly recommended her, just don't take my time slot ;) :) PS she also works in the Los Gatos location and if you visit her there you can use the pool / hot tub / sauna :)

TL;DR - Super talented massage therapist who will fix both problems you know you have, as well as…read moreproblems that you didn't know you have. However she's also super chatty and likes to vent about politics, her life, etc during the session, which can make for a super draining and exhausting massage. This was enough to outweigh the good for me personally, and made me leave to search for a better fit for me personally. I saw Stacey a while ago (I'm way behind on my Yelp reviews) for therapeutic massage. PROS: Stacey is clearly a super talented massage therapist who is passionate about her work and her business. I was impressed by her intuition for the human body, her use of massage techniques and tools that I had never seen before but that had a huge therapeutic payoff, and her creativity in approaching massage problem-solving. I noticed a big and tangible difference in my body post-session. CONS: Stacey is definitely a talker and is super chatty, whether or not you feel like talking during your session. I'm more used to massage therapists who have quiet sessions, ask the clients whether or not they want to talk or would like a quiet session, or are better at picking up at signals as to whether or not a client wants to be talking, and letting the client lead whether or not there is conversation during the session. She definitely spent some time venting to me about politics, her life, her partner, etc -- all the venting can make for a super draining and exhausting massage. I found this unprofessional and inappropriate to vent to a client during their session - which is supposed to be entirely about the client and the client's needs, not a therapist's need to talk and to vent to a captive audience (the immobile client). I found the session vibe to be negative at times (not what you want for an expensive massage!) and unpleasant and draining and exhausting. This was enough to outweigh the good for me personally, because I had a hard time going back to work afterwards because I was so drained and exhausted. So it made me leave to search for a better fit for me personally. Stacey's definitely a super talented massage therapist though, with such tangible improvements to clients' bodies -- so if she became more aware of the fact that clients don't want to be vented at during their massage session and that clients may not want to talk during their massage session, she could definitely become a 5-star massage therapist.

Believe me when I say that I have tried inversion tables, acupuncture, cupping, home devices, PT and several epidural injections. I've even seen an orthopedic surgeon but my injuries have caused problems in every facet of my life. I have always had Vicodin and Flexeril within reach for when I would regularly experience muscle spasms and throw my back out from one wrong move or twist. Since I started seeing Carolina regularly, I have no longer needed a prescription for Flexeril and have been able to manage and control my discomfort and be active again. She is an absolute miracle worker. I have had work done by a dozen other therapists but none have been able to read my body the way Carolina has. She is an incredible healer, combining energy work that takes into account my mind, body and spirit. When I felt nothing else would work, I found her!

If you are on the fence about coming here, do it! Tiya instinctively knows what she is doing and how to help you with a host of issues, not just your back.

But If you're looking for someone to help relieve all the aches and pains youve been dealing with and that have been affecting your quality of life, Tiya is your woman!!
