We were just passing through Steamboat Springs, and I was suffering from painful neck strain and severe headaches that threatened to ruin our entire XX trip. Erica graciously squeezed me in to her schedule for an hour massage, and I was so very glad that I went! The massage was a turning point in my recovery, and I have been feeling better each day. Erica spent at least 20 minutes listening to my personal history and specific orthopedic issues so she could assess how best help me. I received a full hour professional massage focused on alleviating the pain and tension in my neck, shoulders, and head. It rated up at the top compared to any massages I have ever experienced before. Erica is a knowledgeable, highly skilled, and compassionate professional and I highly recommend her. Unfortunately, I do not live in the area, but if I did I would be returning for regular massage therapy with Erica. read more

These massage therapists are highly trained. Coming from NYC where quality is found in abundance for spas and massages, these girls not only compare, but surpass big city standards. The cannabis add on was just what my boyfriend and I needed after a day of snowboarding. Heather hit points on my meridian perfectly based on the description I gave her stating where I was sore most. Even with the massage including targeted muscle groups, she was very fluent on balancing my whole body and all muscle groups. The therapists are reiki trained which took the massage to a healing level for mind and body alike. Straight after the massage, we were both significantly more sore due to the lactic acid moved around. The morning after, we went for a long day full day of snowboarding in peace. Thank you so much! read more

This was my first time at the new location across the street. It's a charming, funky building and the best part is that with more space, Heartfire can do couples massage! I basically just wait until I visit Steamboat to get a massage because I KNOW it will be amazing. I managed to get two appointments (one for me, one for my girlfriend) with Erica on a very busy week and we both floated out of the building. I don't have any complicated issues with my body, but I do have problem spots and Erica traces them to the source. I thought I had shoulder pain, but it all unraveled when she hit my mid back. I'm definitely thinking I need to get my dad in here, too. After a winter of shoveling snow, he might let me get him a cannabis massage for his birthday =D. read more

I must start off in saying that Erica Olsen gave me the best massage of my life. As someone with chronic pain my whole life, I have had my fair share of massages and I have never had anyone go as in depth during our initial consult as she did. We talked about all of my ailments and what I was looking for in the massage and she exceeded all expectations. I have had serious hip pain for the last 10 years and even today, 4 days later, I have relief because of this massage. Erica cares about her clients and their needs and genuinely wants to help them get better and find relief. I will continue to recommend her to everyone I meet that is looking for an amazing massage. read more

I had a massage by Chelsea, could very well be the best one I've ever had. She met with me first to identify all of the trouble areas and review medical history. The massage was so relaxing! Of course she found tight areas I didn't even know I had. The hour went by quickly. It's not a fancy place, and is small, but very clean and professional. If you want a sugar scrub or a seaweed wrap, you'll have to go somewhere else. If you want a great, professional massage, this is the place. Much more reasonably priced than some of the other places too. read more

My son had a massage during our vacation to Steamboat. He is a super fit 17 year old that plays high school football, so his back is always troublesome. The mountain rollacoaster, alpine slide and kayaking the Yampa made it worse. He was in pain.... Sophia was amazing!!! She did some cupping on his really bad spots along with his massage. He felt much better, and he learned a ton about protecting his back. He said she was super knowledgeable and made him feel comfortable. If you truly need therapeutic help, this is the place!!!! read more

I was getting numb fingers and pain in my left shoulder. I don't stretch enough after drumming and the tension had built up to where I could not drum or run with much consistency. I tried a local chiropractor and the issues seemed to get worse for me. My wife suggested I try massage as therapy instead, and, although it has only been a couple of days since Chelsea worked out the impingements, I can feel the looseness and ease I used to enjoy as a younger person. I will return and I highly recommend Heartfire Massage to anyone. Russ D read more

Erica does a very complete assement before the treatment and gets right to work on those trouble areas. This was a new approach for me and I am optimistic that it can help my chronic back pain. I am already feeling some relief three days later. I have another massage booked in about 10 days so will keep going if I feel the effects. I have no doubt that she would give a great conventional masssage if that is what one requests as she is very open to whatever the client requests. read more

Erica is Awesome. I have been seeing her for awhile now. I started the 90 minute sessions a few times ago, and it is well worth it. Erica is very knowledgeable in her trade. She explains her processes well and really makes a difference for me. I sit at a desk too much and she's been instrumental at targeting my trouble spots. I recently sent a bride to see her. My friend said it was the nicest bridal gift she received. I recommend her HIGHLY and suggest "go often". read more

If you want to indulge yourself, search no further than Heartfire Massage with certified massage therapist, Erica Olson! She is the ultimate masseuse from getting rid of your TMJ to easing the pains of sciatica. I have been going to her for several years and it is always a treat that I look forward to. Never considering it a frivolous expenditure, a massage is as important as taking care of your teeth. Erica is the best and I'm happy to sing her praises! read more

Very happy with the work I have been getting with Erica. She has been very good at communicating and responds well to my feedback of my needs. As a full time athlete in Nordic Combined she understands what I need and expect out of my body and she works to help me get more out of my body. She even spent some extra time helping me with stretching. I am a big fan. Her rates are also very reasonable, especially if you commit to more consistent work. I am happy! read more

Erica gives a wonderful massage! Once I got a massage from her, I stopped going to the other therapists I had gone to in the past AND I bumped my massage time up to 1.5 hrs from 1 hr. She can use a variety of techniques depending on what my issues might be which work wonders. She has a great sense of humor too and a boat load of charisma so if I feel like chatting, I have a great conversation with her but if I don't, relaxing quietly is welcomed as well. read more

Best massage treatment ever. Sarah started out with a sit down discussion and asked about what I find to be problematic. During the massage, she would ask about specific areas that I didn't mention but she felt something was off. She was very open with providing information about what she was working on and provided me with some follow up stretches. It's a shame I don't live here (for many reasons), because I would keep regular appointments with Sarah. read more

My BF and I planned a trip to steamboat months ago, but ended up not being able to book our massages till the last minute. From the second i read through her website, I knew this is where we wanted to go. Erica is professional and so laid back. She made our last minute efforts painless and easy, and man was it worth it. Everything was so relaxing and just amazing. If you're looking for a massage while in steamboat, this is DEFINITELY the way to go. read more

I can't say enough about Heartfire Massage. Over the years, I have had more massages than I can count, but none that even come close to the massages at Heartfire. Both Chelsea and Erica are extremely professional and deeply concerned with giving the best massage possible. Whatever discomfort I walk in with... I always leave with relief and a feeling of true relaxation. If it were possible to give more than 5 stars, I would! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

This is the second professional massage I have ever had and I have to say it was great. Erica really took the time at the beginning of the session to get to know me and the issues that I was having with my body. Erica spent a great deal of time on my shoulder that has been bothering me for a month and the next day I noticed that a good amount of the pain was gone. Erica was very professional in every aspect and I will defiantly be going back. read more

Erica is a serious pro who gets to know her clients and their needs very quickly. She understands anatomy and approaches massage from a therapeutic view, quickly identifying and addressing body work needs. She was also lots of fun. I've had a lot of "nice" massages in Steamboat (and elsewhere), but as an aging athlete, I need to focus on keeping my body strong, aligned and functioning properly. I am thrilled to have found Erica. read more

Erica is very , very good at what she does. I have had back issues for years now, and have had lots of massage. I have to say, she is one of the best I have ever had. I loved that she took extra time at the beginning to really talk about the issues, then asked what I felt was the best approach for me. I also love her booking system and will definitely be a regular of hers. I cannot believe how much better I feel!! read more

Erica is a fantastic massage therapist. She blends an extensive knowledge of anatomy with exercise mechanics to zero in on my issues (I'm a runner and skier). She also employs cupping techniques (pulling up on a muscle with a suction cup) which I find to be hugely beneficial. Erica also listens to me so patiently and thoroughly, she really gets what is going on with my physical issues. I highly recommend Erica. read more
