I came to Olney Massage after a bad experience at a chiropractor left me in more pain but afraid to go back to another chiro to try to fix it. I'd gone to massage therapists before over the years, but none of them were still practicing in the area--so I did a Google search for massage in Olney and found Cynthia Given. And I'm eternally grateful for that.
Cynthia, who near-immediately told me to call her Cindy, is one of the most thorough and skilled massage therapists I've had the fortune to meet. My first appointment with her started with time set aside for her to get health information and background from me, which set me at ease--she didn't just expect me to ditch my clothes and hop up on the table. I felt like she took the time to get to know who I was and what I needed before we began our first session.
The private massage room and massage table are comfortable and inviting, and Cindy takes care to create a relaxing and aesthetically pleasing environment in which to work her magic. The massage itself was one of the best I'd ever had, and Cindy was incredibly considerate of any discomfort on my end. She was also a pleasure to talk to, if you're one of those people who like to talk instead of fall asleep during your massage. :-)
I left that first day feeling so much better and more relaxed--not healed yet, but well on my way. In only a few more sessions, I was back to my old self, and Cindy deserves full credit. I now make sure to schedule at least one session per month (the 80-minute massage is the best; trust me, I started with 60 minutes but have never looked back!) to make sure I keep my back and neck from getting to knotted up with stress. Cindy never disappoints. Do yourself a favor, and schedule a session--your entire body will thank you! read more
