She wanted a massage so we checked out Joe. My wife has gotten massages from Tokyo to Thailand to NYC to Rome and this was one of the if not the best massage she has ever had. Not only did Joe relieve her muscle pain but he also realized that a past surgery was impeding her mobility in her neck and she found instant release. Joe's manner was not only informative but also comforting. We wish we lived closer to Woodstock as Joe would become a constant in our lives. Even if you go to Woodstock just for the weekend see Joe the guru. It's worth it. Thank you Joe.

I have suffered with tmj, migraines, shoulder tension and back pain that was caused by nerve damage when my gall bladder was removed. I have tried all different treatments but none were as successful as my treatments with joe. After just a few sessions all of my pain felt much better. He was able to relieve my back pain by working on my head and neck. My tmj felt much better and I slept much better after each session. I am so happy I found Joe. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has any body issues! He is like no one else I have ever worked with!!

It's hard to recommend Touch Chi too highly. Rick and Troy provide top-flight body work, the kind…read moreyou'd expect to find in a big city. They're booked well in advance, but be persistent: they do have cancellations and might be able to slide you in if you can be flexible. I see Rick, as does my wife, though I've heard Troy is excellent, too. (It was the luck of the draw for me, but I can say that Rick is a truly gifted bodyworker--and I speak as someone who's had a wide range of massage, cranial-sacral, Hellerwork, and other types of bodywork.) This is therapeutic bodywork, the kind that helps to deal with chronic physical issues. Rick has really helped me with the chronic tension in my shoulders, as he has helped my wife deal with a nagging back problem; it's really improved since she's been under his care. A caveat: if you're looking for nice, light massage, look elsewhere. What should you expect? Informed, careful, attention to what you need physically. Are your shoulders bothering you? They'll be worked on, but so will other muscles on your back, chest, and arms that are connected to your shoulders and may, in fact, be the real problem. I've had Rick work on releasing tension in my leg, to realize that my problem knee was much less bothersome. In short, the best you'll find anywhere. We're lucky to have Touch Chi in the Upper Valley.

Beyond finding the gym, passable restaurants, and the bookstore, I also try to find good local massage businesses which isn't always easy. TouchChi came up on a Google search of the area and came highly recommended from the local service proprietors. I had hoped to be able to slide in an appointment at the last minute but found that TouchChi's service and reputation is pretty phenomenal which means they are booked out quite some time in advance. I was finally able to get some time in and had a great 60-minute session with one of the two owners. The space is in a renovated freight building and is clean, minimal, and linear. Troy greeted me as I came in, got me oriented to the space and we were able to get the massage started right away. I found him personable, extremely knowledgeable, and efficient. He made conversation when prompted but was not overwhelming or dominating when silence seemed to be more appropriate. He explained the kind of work he was doing and what he was finding as he progressed through the massage. I was interested in deep tissue work and he accommodated that along with some great forced stretches which worked together very well. I was completely satisfied with my massage session and all the pieces that went into it, including the discounted rate for first-time clients. I'm looking forward to scheduling my next appointment during the rest of my stay in the area. Highly recommended.

We are thankful there are other reputable and less greedy salon establishments in the Upper Valley.

I was visiting Vermont from the south. I needed manicure and pedicure badly. My husband called…read morearound and found this place in Woodstock where we were planning on visiting there. He Booked a mani and pedi. Price $90 . That's twice what I pay back home. I figured for $90 I expected an incredible experience. I dealt with Lisa. She Never soak my nails in water. Would not trim my cuticles as I requested. Lisa said she does not recommend it. I pick a light pale color and after two coats, I wanted a third coat of polish. She said, I did not need a third coat. If a customer requested a third coat for what I was paying I should have gotten 6 coats with no questions!!! At this point. I was furious !! I tried not to show it. When it was time for a pedicure I refused it. She tried to convince me. After my husband got a Mani and pedicure, He was not happy with it either. Remember she says she does not recommend cutting cuticles, but I saw her trim feet cuticles. Well, I was raised to be nice and respectful and I was. I will never go there again. I highly don't recommend this nail salon.

I called the number and set up an appointment. When I asked Gigi for directions she became very short and said I should know the address because there should be a business card in the envelope. Her phone had a terrible connection so I wrote down what little I could understand of the broken up directions. I ended up driving by the building and had to turn around because it was poorly marked. After walking around the building and speaking to an employee in the "kitchen" I was directed upstairs where I found a locked door at 2:32. My appointment was at 2:30 so I assumed she might still be in with a previous client and I waited. After 20 minutes I called her to find she left to go to the bank because I was late. She was quite rude and snippy about it. I don't believe she ever had any intention of fulfilling the gift certificate with the attitude I got from her. I will be sure to stick with Sojourns where the staff are respectful and professional.

10/10 would recommend if you are in the area and need a break from skiing/snowboarding... or are…read morejust wanting pampered! This place was easy to book, was super accommodating, provided great service and were super friendly! The outside looks like a little red barn and inside was clean and had a relaxing/homey feeling! After a day of snowboarding (for the first time) my calves and feet were needing some attention so I ditched the slopes for the spa on day two of our trip. Although a full body massage sounded nice, I went for the Trail Mix Leg & Foot Treatment (50 Minutes at $65). This leg and foot was just what the doctor ordered! It begin with me turning on the massage chair ;) and a roasted chestnut soak and callous removal. For the next 35-40 mins my treatment included a whipped honey scrub, a skin softening chocolate mask, hot towels, a leg & feet massage with vanilla bourbon oil, lotion, & hot stones and finally ended with a Honey Heel Glaze treatment to lock in moisture -- and my feet and legs are still silky soft! At first Tarin was very gentle and I was worried the massage would be mediocre, but she blew it out of the water with the perfect deep massage on my calves and feet... She could feel how tight they were and really dug in. It was just what I needed! I do want to notate and give a shout out to Tarin for the awesome customer service when I was in a bind after making an appointment. My boyfriend went to the slopes and I was on my own... When I went to start the car it wouldn't start and as you know in this area, there is a lack of transportation if it's not to a ski resort. I called to explain the situation and she instantly said she would block off a little time after my scheduled appointment time to give me a little wiggle room to get there, and if for some reason, it didn't work out that she would not charge me a cancellation fee. This was so kind and accommodating, and I very much appreciated that understanding and willingness to be flexible despite my situation. It ease my mind they gave me time to figure out a way to get there and still enjoy my time without being stressed. Not all places will be this kind and accommodating, so I come in a small town spa for doing so! Like I said 10 out of 10 experience, I already told my boyfriend I'd be happy to come back to the area and if we do, I will definitely be making an appointment to come back here! Maybe I can talk my boyfriend into a couples treatment!
