She helped my body heal from a series of surgeries I had in 2020/2021. She has a gentle, open demeanor and an empathetic touch which makes it easy to trust her throughout the massage. She makes sure to have open communication about what feels good and what doesn't; her space is peaceful and calming; and she's just a lovely person to be around. I always leave feeling at ease and better than when I came in. I cannot recommend her enough!

If you have had a lot of massage and you know what you like she will meet or beat that expectation, or, if you have never had any bodywork she is the first person I recommend going to. She's a normal person who does out-of-the-ordinary bodywork and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I've been coming to get various treatments here at Aryatara for chronic blockages and pain that I…read morehave been having both phmusically and mentally. I feel the modalities that Marissa offers are all encompassing and help me release blockages on both a spiritual level with reiki and a physical level with Ayurvedic modalities. I have to say my favorite treatment is the Shirodharra treatment it's purely indulgent, warmed oil flowing over your head while getting the best head massage. I suffer from chronic migraines and this heals them. Worth every penny!!

Rachael is so much more than I expected. Her intuitive healing is extraordinary and it's really hard to put into words how my life is changing so quickly. It's like having three therapists all rolled into one. I can feel my energy levels totally change after my visits, I just feel so much happier. After my last session today before I left to come home I looked in the mirror and felt as if I looked younger, when I looked again I could clearly see that may face was relaxed and happy. I really do feel that my body balance is finally moving into harmony and I just have nicer thoughts too, I can't explain that. As a cancer survivor myself I listen carefully to Rachael's advice and I find myself just doing what she tells me without a second thought, probably because I just know she's right. Along with her experience and training it's obvious to me that she is gifted in many way's. The only way you will find out is to go there yourself, you will be stunned!

I am a bodyworker, of over 15 years now and am very selective about who I see for massage and…read morebodywork. Dana is who I love to go to. She was a favorite teacher of mine and a beloved teacher of so many ! You can feel the passion she has for healing work and she is continually learning more. Her heart is golden and her integrity and kindness, are of the highest kind. Anyone who meets her would know this. Her knowledge of the body, experienced hands, expertise in many healing modalities , passion, and heart bring me back whenever I can! The negative review was clearly written, however this does not describe Dana or how she operates in any clear way-there is always more to the story. I asked Dana about the negative review...the woman who wrote the review, had bought a gift certificate from Dana, for a massage for her brother. He missed his appointment. Dana had to call him, when he was a no show. A no show is obligated to pay for the appointment time in any established business. Dana generously offered to reschedule him without a rescheduling fee.. but it didn't work for him and he didn't try to make it work. The sister didn't know the whole story until Dana shared the texts with her. So..the negative review is not at all accurate. Unfortunately, when the sister learned the truth, she offered to remove her negative yelp review, only if Dana refunded the money. The negative review is a complete misrepresentation of Dana Rose. Dana is one of the good ones- one of the best ones - don't do yourself the disservice of missing out on Dana!

I've been going to Anita for over four years. First I went through the entire Rolfing series of 10…read moresessions, which was amazing. Now I see Anita mostly for craniosacral with some muscle manipulation thrown in when needed. When I recently crashed on my bike, I called Anita and she put me back together -- and also convinced me to take it easy for a while because I had been minimizing the seriousness of the crash. Anita is incredibly gifted. All she has to do is stand behind me and put her hands on my shoulders for me to feel where I'm out of alignment. She is an eternal student in the best sense of the word, with a background in counseling, rolfing, craniosacral, osteopathy, and probably loads of other training I don't even know about because Anita is also incredibly humble. She is like a bodhisattva with a soft southern accent. We are very fortunate to have her in the Bay Area.
