I was first introduced to Theresa before she opened her business here in Greenville. She was working with my chiropractor to introduce therapeutic massage to his clients. That was the first time I had ever experienced a real therapeutic massage. After an introductory session, I went back when I had a serious muscle tension problem in my neck. Theresa was able to work it out and it never came back. Thank you Theresa! Since then I have been going on a regular basis to keep my muscles monitored and treated, as needed. After a shoulder injury, she gave me therapeutic massage to enhance my physical therapy sessions and to increase the speed and completeness of recovery. A while later, I injured my other shoulder and between her therapy and my exercises learned from the first PT, we were able to bring my other shoulder back to wellness. Thank you again! As we age, work physically in our world of the great outdoors and use our computer age technology, we encounter many muscle challenges, to which Theresa has always found a solution. But it is not only about solutions to acute problems, it is also about transformation in living and thinking. During my massages we converse on many topics which include philosophical, intellectual, emotional, physiological, and even spiritual ones that all add together to help me be in touch with myself and learn how to listen to my body and take care of my body, even to the point of self-massage when needed between appointments. Now when my body hurts, I know how to massage it and stretch it and exercise it to get results. She is still the expert, but I have learned some simple things to do to help between appointments. I really don't know how people exist without massage. I don't want to suffer without it as long as Light Hand Muscle Therapy and Healing Center is available. i hope you will try it to see for yourself. You won't be disappointed. She won't hurt you like some therapists do. She will only help you heal. read more

I have been to many massage therapist over the last 20 years. I have scoliosis along with a lower lumbar fusion. I have never gotten much relief until now. Words cannot express how thankful I am to have found them. My issues, that I have dealt with for almost 30+ years now, are finally seeing results. I have been to orthopedics, neurologist, chiropractors and the such. Theresa has been incredible at helping me locate and work on what I now know has been my main issue all along. The contributor is now being worked out and I feel way better than I have in years. Consistency is the key and having an incredible massage therapist. I have both and can not say enough about how in a very short time I am seeing results and am feeling like the person that I once knew that life wasn't controlled by her pain. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following your passion and giving people like me hope. The others only offered comfort, you are giving me my life back!!!!!! read more

I joined Yelp solely to give a review for Light Hand. They are worth posting a review!! I received the best massage of my life here. My husband receives biweekly massages from Theresa and raved for months about her unique approach to massage. He previously requested deep tissue massage to help with back pain at another massage facility. But with Light Hand, he realized technique is more important than having someone beat up your back. He treated me to a massage four months post pregnancy. I left my hour long appt feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. I actually felt energized (unlike other massage experiences where I would leave feeling physically good but mentally discombobulated). They specialize in a unique massage that aids the body without hurting. I loved my experience and have another massage next week with Connie. I'm sure to have a great post about her in the near future. Can't wait! read more

I am a 44 year old male and have been dealing with seizure like symptoms for about 15 years. I have been to all the local hospitals and to neurologist, also been to the Mayo Clinic in Minneapolis for help from anyone who would listen to me. I could not get any help. I met Theresa in the fall of 2017 and started treatments with her after I suffered a major seizure at Lowe's. Being treated by her once a week for an hour I haven't had any episodes and feel better than I have in years. She has a true gift of healing and I will continue to be treated by her as long as she is in business. read more

Katie is an absolute miracle worker! I have chronic migraine and get pain in my neck, shoulders, and back as a result. She is gentle but her work is much more effective than any other massage therapy I've had before. She uses a mixture of whatever my body needs on a given day - lymphatic drainage, cupping, stones, etc. Having a therapist who specializes in treating chronic pain and other health issues is priceless. The office is comfortable, easy to acces, and has enough parking. Highly recommend! read more
