I have chronic issues and she has consistently helped me make real progress where others could not. She listens carefully, identifies the problem areas, and uses a range of techniques tailored to what my body actually needs. Every session feels thoughtful and effective, not routine. Beyond the results, she is warm, personable, and brings genuinely good energy into the room. Her space is calm and deeply relaxing, which makes each visit something I truly look forward to. I have cut back on seeing other types of practitioners because her work addresses the same issues more effectively than treatments I tried elsewhere. If you are looking for skilled, intuitive bodywork, this is the place to go.

It is with great pleasure that I get to write this review of Eli. I have had many massages in my…read morelifetime and Eli is one of, if not, THE BEST massages I've ever experienced. I first went to Eli because I was wanting a lymphatic drainage massage. During the session she was able to find many of my tense spots without me even telling her. She is very intuitive and has SO much knowledge about the body and knows right where to focus her attention to relieve pain. She caters the massage to suit each person's desires/concerns. She really goes the extra mile to make sure you leave feeling relaxed and restored. Not only did Eli check in with me during the massage to make sure I was comfortable; she contacted me after to see how I was feeling as well. If I could see Eli every week I would!!

I've been going to this Burke Williams location for years, and if you know, you know--it's a bit…read morelike massage roulette. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes it's "meh," and then every once in a while you find the one and cling to them for dear life until they inevitably disappear into the void. (RIP to my former favorites Riddhi and Sessie. Sessi, if you're out there, I miss you and my shoulders miss you even more.) BUT. Today?? Today I hit the absolute jackpot. Andy. Let me just say: if massages were an Olympic sport, Andy would have multiple gold medals, a sponsorship deal, and a documentary narrated by Morgan Freeman. I walked in feeling like a human knot. Not "a little tight," not "slightly sore"--no, I was basically a walking pretzel who had made several poor life choices. I walked out feeling like I had been gently reset to factory settings. Like...who authorized this level of transformation?? First of all, he LISTENS. I mentioned a couple of problem areas, and instead of doing the standard "nod and ignore," he actually focused on them like a highly trained muscle detective solving a crime. Every time I thought, "wow, that spot really needs work," he was already there, handling it like it personally offended him. Second--his technique?? Unfair. Illegal, even. The perfect balance of pressure, precision, and whatever sorcery he's clearly trained in. At one point I genuinely forgot what stress felt like. I may have briefly considered canceling all responsibilities and just living on that massage table forever. And the result? I floated out. Not walked--floated. I'm pretty sure I'm 30% lighter and 100% less cranky. Now here's the part where I struggle morally: I almost didn't write this review because I selfishly want to gatekeep Andy forever and keep his schedule wide open for me. But honestly...that feels illegal. The man is too good. The people deserve to know. Andy, if you ever leave, I will absolutely spiral and have to start this whole emotional journey over again. Please don't do that to me. 10/10. Life-changing. Book him immediately before he gets too famous and impossible to schedule... but like, respectfully, not before I get my next appointment.

I signed up for the premium monthly membership at Simply Massage Burke Williams because a friend of…read moremine is a massage therapist there, and I was genuinely excited about the value--$135/month for an 80-minute massage with a "complimentary upgrade" like deep tissue or sports massage sounded like a great deal. Unfortunately, my recent experience was really disappointing. Since my friend wasn't available, I booked with a different therapist and asked for the deep tissue upgrade. Before we started, I clearly explained that I'm a distance runner and was looking for something between a sports massage and deep tissue: focused work, but not the kind of super intense pressure that leaves you sore for days. The massage therapist was so nice and I really thought we were aligned. But pretty quickly, something felt off. It took me a while to realize what it was, but there was no music playing at the start of the session. The therapist didn't turn it on until 20-30 minutes in, which made the whole beginning feel awkward and not very relaxing. There were also some basic details that were missed. I had forgotten to put my hair up, and instead of helping manage it (like placing a towel over it, which most therapists do) my hair kept getting caught and falling onto my neck. Rather than addressing it, the therapist just avoided working on my neck altogether which is an area that really needed attention. As for the massage itself, the technique just didn't meet expectations. At times it felt like the therapist was attempting pressure point work, but without enough pressure to actually be effective. I did mention that I could handle more pressure, but there wasn't much adjustment. Overall, it didn't feel like a deep tissue or sports massage, more like a very light, unfocused session that didn't address what I had communicated beforehand. I left feeling frustrated and honestly pretty upset that I had used my monthly massage on an experience that didn't meet my needs. I typically tip 20-30%, but this time I only tipped 15% because of how disappointed I was. I ended up sitting in my car afterward and crying because I was so frustrated--both that the massage didn't help when I really needed it, and that I hadn't been more assertive in the moment. To their credit, when I reached out afterward, a manager named Jamal was kind and responsive. However, he said he wasn't local to the Marina del Rey location and would pass my concerns along. That was a week ago, and I haven't heard anything since. The lack of follow-up only adds to the frustration. Since I'm locked into a 6-month membership, I'll have to give it another try, but moving forward I'll likely only book with my friend and won't continue after my contract ends. Overall, this experience didn't match the level of quality or professionalism I expected from a place with Burke Williams' reputation.

However, when I found the Metatouch team, Holden and Ryan, I knew I found the team I was looking for. And Maya is so helpful too! As an active woman, I am getting thrown on the ground (martial arts), swimming miles and miles in open water, retired marathoner, and washing dishes - the body gets torn up, twisted, and often feels broken. Then I walk into Metatouch, and it's golden. They take the time to understand your movements, listen to your pains or challenges - and watch you move to offer up their own analysis/advice. They then put their magic touch on you, and WOW, you're back to the human you gaslighted yourself into thinking you weren't . I am financially stubborn and think I can youtube all my problems/solutions - not with my body. It needs to function, have mobility and feel good... the Metatouch team is the best!
