Looking forward to my next massage!

I was pregnant when I first went to see Ronit for a prenatal massage. I was having terrible…read moreradiating pain in my arms and after our massage I felt just about 100% better! Ronit was so sweet, made me feel comfortable especially with my first ever prenatal massage. I highly recommend her! My husband and I later also hired her to be our doula for the delivery of my son. Ronit is very responsive whenever we had questions. She was very informative during our meetings leading up to my due date. One big thing for us was making sure our doula did not push their own agenda or replace my husband during the labor/delivery process. Ronit was respectful of our wishes, empowered my husband with hands on techniques and ways to better support me, and provided comfort and additional knowledge about labor which gave us peace of mind since we were first timers at the labor process, and that was priceless. We are so so grateful to have had Ronit with us despite eventually having to deliver via csection. After we brought our baby home, Ronit stopped by to check in with us and made herself available to any questions we have with caring for a newborn. Whenever I see Ronit it feels like reuniting with a friend! We have moved to the city but Emeryville isn't too far if I am in need of a good massage! She's the best!

Emily is an incredibly skilled and experienced bodyworker - I've been seeing different people using…read moredifferent modalities for decades, and I feel pretty confident saying this. She has unlocked ease of motion and sore areas that no one else has ever addressed, and is able to do that without using painful digging or pressure. She has found areas that could use some attention that I don't recognize, so even after asking me what I'd like to work on, she's able to look more 360 degrees at what my body needs.

I came to Kirsten for frozen shoulder after feeling completely stalled and even made worse by…read moretraditional PT. From the moment I walked in, I felt something different. Kirsten doesn't just "work on a shoulder." She works with your whole nervous system, your fascia, and the deeper layers that actually affect movement and pain. She also takes time to understand what's been going on in your life (not in a prying way, but in a human, compassionate way). And the physical results are real. My arm felt less painful and more mobile after just one session. It has been such a relief for me to find such a caring and compassionate practitioner and finally feel like I'm on the road to recovery.

You can make an appointment through online or with her personally. Since I have a health card, I just paid online and scheduled an appointment with her after. The price vary from $80-$100, depends what kind of massage you request. What I needed was deep tissue massage for my back and each session lasted for an hour. The atmosphere is quite lovely and calm, which help you to relax a lot. I like Flo cause she's very attentive. She actually pay attention to what you say and understand your needs. Every movement she does, she will educated you to help you understand better what it does for you. After several sessions with her, I can see a big difference with my back. Of course the pain didn't go away instantly but because of all the sessions, I can feel my back is getting better and stronger. So overall, I'd recommend her if you need someone who knows what they're doing and passionate at what they do. Thank you for all the amazing work Flo.

Amazing stretching and massage! I'm a big skier and have been getting massages regularly for many…read moreyears. Flo is easily one of the Top 3 masseuses that I've ever visited. In addition to traditional deep tissue, she also does Fascial Stretch Therapy, which was developed for the US Olympic team and involves a combination of deep stretching and massage. I leave each session much looser and flexible. Flo helps open up your posture and releases so much tension. Now that I've seen Flo for multiple sessions, the progress builds upon each previous session - the chronic pain and tightness that I've lived with for years has improved dramatically. It's also worth saying that she's so pleasant and thoughtful to work with, and she takes the time every session to ask about how you're feeling and what you want to focus on. If you have chronic muscle pain, Flo is a "must see."

She then trained me to work with my problem at home and suggested over-the counter remedies that I am eager to try. Sara surpassed my expectations, and I gained new feet therapy skills I can integrate into my daily routine. I am so appreciative!
