I had the privilege of working with an exceptional massage therapist who truly made a remarkable difference in managing my vertigo. From the moment I walked in, I felt completely at ease. Julie took the time to listen attentively to my concerns and explained how she would tailor the session to address my specific symptoms. Her calm, professional demeanor immediately instilled a sense of trust and confidence in her abilities. The techniques she used were both gentle and effective, precisely targeting the areas contributing to my vertigo. The pressure was perfect, and I appreciated how she checked in regularly to ensure I was comfortable. By the end of the session, I noticed a significant reduction in my symptoms, and I left feeling lighter, more balanced, and much improved. What stood out most was not just the physical relief, but the sense of trust and care Julie created throughout the session. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my well-being, and I left feeling not only better but more informed and hopeful about managing my vertigo moving forward. I highly recommend Julie to anyone seeking relief and a truly professional, comforting experience. read more

Truly transformative experience. Julie listens, and this makes all the difference. She has seen me, my husband, my eight year old daughter, and my 20 year old nephew (who was experiencing significant back pain, which she alleviated). In all cases, she took time to listen, to understand, and to explain to us how to approach what we are experiencing. She gave me more than a massage, but also a way of thinking about and working with the pain I was experiencing (migraines) that has brought about real change. She helped my nephew with his back pain and also techniques to help with relaxation and sleep. She helped my daughter with stress reduction. And her healing hands are the best. Everyone who has been to her, (including me) attests to Julie's healing and comforting presence. The massage I received was deep and thorough, as needed, and two days later I found myself walking on air. Wonderful, wonderful. read more

I have been to Jo countless times now. She has such depth of knowledge of different massage techniques, but she also is fluent with many other healing modalities as well - and shares that information with you. She talks with you extensively before she starts the massage both because she wants to find out more how to help you with your physical issues but also because she genuinely cares about you as a person. You relax as soon as you enter her space. Afterwards she keeps in touch to make sure you are doing well. You will truly enjoy the experience and be back for more. read more

Among the many massage therapists I've been to, Julie is the BEST. Her space is lovely, calm, and inviting. She really takes her time with you, listening to what's going on so she'll know just what to work on. She is SO knowledgeable. Her work extends beyond just the hands-on massage to include advice on how to help yourself after you leave her studio. Plus she's a really warm, kind presence, but with a sense of humor... she's not all serious solemnity. So for me the experience is a blend of luxury, healing, and fun. read more
