She takes the time to go over your needs and really listens to what your body is telling you. Every session with Lyssa leaves me feeling relaxed, refreshed, and so much better than when I walked in.

Review #840 2025-012…read more I was rear ended in 11/2024 before Thanksgiving & went to P/T when my therapist suggested acupuncture &/or massage therapy to advance my recovery: right shoulder, neck, & back. I tried massage once more than a decade ago, but I have personal space issues besides being very ticklish. I searched awhile trying to find the "right" type of massage therapy, & came upon Gettys Muscle Therapy. I wasn't able speak with Lyssa because she's an independent contractor at Amie House, but she did reply by text with enough info that I felt comfortable to schedule an appointment 1-month out. She's busy either because of her limited schedule: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (M, T, Th), 8:00 AM - 3:30 PM (W, F) or she's THAT good. Established in 2010, Lyssa is a board-certified CA massage therapist providing therapy for rehabilitative care (not like the spa-associated massages?) at Amie House, a reimagined holistic center of independent wellness professionals. The 1st appointment is 90-mins.: 30 for pre/post assessment based on your intake/application form + 60 for massage. A detailed intake form ensures a full massage session, other it'll be shorten to clarify your needs/goals; thereafter, sessions are 30, 60, 90 mins. with Pay Later option of 4 installments (not sure if there's surcharges for this payment plan). Lyssa is thorough with asking questions that will assist her in your treatment, & discusses post-treatment observations & changes between appointments to guide her approach for a more impactful session. She's methodical in working on & around the tender areas, stretching & maneuvering for better range/flexibility. Her technique is different from another masseuse who uses more & constant pressure. At Gettys Muscle Therapy, treatment shouldn't be "no pain, no gain" instead it's detailed pressure with some discomfort of a "good sore." Followed by consistent homework on post assessment tips to maintain the progress made. Due to the cold weather, any minute progress made with PT & massage therapy is 1-step forward, 10-steps back; now weather is slightly warmer, & have increased the PT intensity & additional HW (from 1 set daily to 3 sets) & infrequent massage therapy, I've regained a lot of mobility & working on the back & building strength. On my 2nd session, Lyssa suggested I come in earlier to supplement with Dry Float Therapy, aka Zero Gravity Therapy. It's meant to be a relaxing experience that simulates weightlessness without getting wet. It involves lying on a special floatation bed that uses a dry membrane & is designed to minimize outside senses & feelings to help relieve stress & physical pain. However, this wasn't for me... triggering claustrophobia, anxiety, & nausea that remained with me for the whole day into the next day. I was barely in the bed (less than a min.?)... lying flat, which I'm incapable of doing (need to be raised a few degrees upward), & it felt tight like you're in a coffin but more snug. After getting my bearings, my massage wasn't therapeutic with my focus on breathing through the normally tolerable discomfort & trying not to get sick on the bed. This complementary add-on is $35 at a 30% discount for 30-mins. & $80 regular price for 60-mins. I'm not consistent with her post assessment tips (HW), but these complementary massage sessions along with PT has helped in my recovery. If you're looking for clinical massage therapy, look no further than Gettys Muscle Therapy. Keep in mind that it's challenging to secure short-term appointments because she is THAT good.

She can tell that I tuck a leg under me while I'm sitting at my desk, or that I sleep with my arms curled up under my chin - just by where all of my knots are. A session is unlike a standard massage. Lindsay works on spots you didn't even know were problematic, until they release and you realize that in fact, you ARE supposed to be able to turn your head from side to side! I always leave a session with Lindsay feeling like a newborn baby, which is absolutely my goal.

I liked the dim lighting inside, relaxing spa music, neutral and modern aesthetic, lights and the citrus aromatherapy. I was also given ginger tea and a Snickers and ginger candy upon completion of my massage. First timers get $10 off. I found street parking right outside the complex. The massage strength was just right. My massage therapist, Mam, checked in on me to make sure I was comfortable throughout the experience. I liked that there was a small facial massage and that your face got covered by a cloth when you were on your back. You also got a nice soft pillow when you turned to your back. I'd highly recommend this massage experience! The bad: It was cold inside. The massage table wasn't heated and the bed is firm (could be good or bad depending on what you like). The sheets on them were thinner and weren't cushiony or plush/warm. I still have a knot in my upper back that it seems like a lot of people cannot get rid of for me. I had 3 other massages in the past year where they were also unable to get rid of my upper back knot. The interesting: Their bathroom is located right. outside the entrance and requires a key. It's shared with other tenants. Their grand opening is later this month.

Review #1006 2026-076…read more I found Massage By Jaqu & Cait shortly after my car accident. My physical therapist suggested acupuncture &/or massage along with PT to help with the recovery process. I'm not a fan of needles & uncomfortable with massage (personal boundaries & extremely ticklish), though the latter is more tolerable. I did various key word searches & jotted a few on a list... while Massage By Jaqu & Cait was not listed as a top 3 on any of the searches (probably because there's only a handful of reviews), they were responsive to my inquiry about their services. I mentioned that my physical therapist suggested massage to help with my recovery, but I'm sensitive to touch & extremely ticklish. Jaqu says she can work with me & adjust accordingly to my temperament. I booked with her since she answered my call & had first availability. I liked that she always sends a confirmation text the day before my appointment. To book an appointment, go to their website: jaquandcait.com to search for availability. Following the selected date, there's a detailed booking form that requires your contact info, massage type, massage pressure, & injuries disclosure with an optional message section; it also allows you to pay immediately or pay in person. I always pay at the time of booking, so I'm not sure what happens to your payment if you have to reschedule or cancel. On my initial visit, I was warmly greeted & surprised to see a large, friendly dog beside her! He's a guide dog because she's visually impaired. After the quick intro, she showed me the bathroom & led me downstairs to her therapy room. It's spacious & clean, decorated in soft neutral, earthy colors with an open bookcase opposite of the bed to store your belongings & clothes. The room temperature is always just right, I never feel chilly while undressed on the table, or too warm if it's hot outside. From the get-go, Jaqu applied perfect firm pressure & broad strokes that I never laughed. Though we usually start randomly chatting, I find myself feeling drowsy/sleepy from her seamless flow that melts away my pain & physical tension. She seems to know exactly what's wrong & how to break that tightness & pain, particularly where I injured my back & shoulders. Jaqu is so good that I get "massage drunk" because I'm so relaxed afterwards my blood pressure is lowered & I'm dehydrated from fluids moving; I'm also deeply relaxed that I need a post-massage nap. I always hydrate just before my session & carry a water bottle to immediately drink after. I'm really reactive to her massage because my face is also flushed for a couple of hours thereafter, though my kids think I have (blush) make-up on; apparently, my skin is "glowing" according to my youngest. My husband says I look more youthful. ;-) Services Offered (as of 03/2025): Deep Tissue, Swedish, Thai, Lomi Lomi, Stretch Therapy, Neuromuscular, Cranial Sacral, Lymphatic, Sports, Cupping, Prenatal/Post Partum, Seniors.

How does massage help in my recovery? It relaxes muscles (easing the tension around my injury), boosts blood flow (I typically feel lightheaded, like I'm floating after the session), breaks down scar tissue (maintaining flexibility for PT). While I feel some soreness, it's a good pain; I'm generally more flexible for a few days & can work a little harder in my PT sessions. Massage By Jaqu & Cait has great hours, open 7 days/week. I've only worked with Jaqu, & booked mostly after work & on weekends. Jaqu is an amazing masseuse... professional, friendly, intuitive hands, & superb physical stamina!! She's a mom of 3, & works from her basement unless she's on call for a home visit. What makes her so great is... her technical skills in knowing your anatomy & applying adaptive pressure without it being jarring on your body; actively listening either by voice (when I say I'm in too much pain) or by touch (when I flinch because my body can't handle the pressure), & adjusts accordingly; superb physical stamina from start to finish (the ending fades in a slow down finish, switching to slightly lighter pressure to calm & relax my body). If you're looking for a professional & intuitive expert masseuse, I highly recommend Jaqu at Massage By Jaqu & Cait!! She'll help you disconnect from the outside world, physically relax, & detox your body!

I've been getting bodywork from Jaqu, and what I appreciate most is her decompression series and…read morethe focused work she does on my upper thoracic spine. I have a habit of rounding my shoulders forward, and I tend to develop some kyphosis through my upper back. Between driving long hours and working in a warehouse, my posture really takes a hit. Her work doesn't just feel good in the moment -- it actually helps correct the tension patterns I build up from daily life. The decompression work opens my chest, restores mobility in my upper back, and gives my shoulders the reset they need. It's become crucial for me to stay functional and keep up with the physical demands of my job. Bodywork isn't a luxury for me anymore -- it's maintenance. And with Jaqu, I know I'm getting targeted, intelligent care that keeps me moving.

Jill made sure that experience did not happen. First she learned that we had a mutual acquaintance. I don't know Jill at all. But man, did she try to pry more and more info out of me to gossip about my friend. I even told her I didn't want to do that. But she wanted to keep prying. Then! She started telling me things about my friend I didn't want to know. As she was massaging me she said she found a lump on my back and insinuated that it could be cancer and that it's common. Then proceeded to tell me all about how horrible cancer is. Bye bye relaxing time. I got so stressed by the whole thing I started freaking out about cancer. Had to schedule an appointment with my doctor who couldn't see me in two weeks. Two weeks filled with stress. Finally see my doctor "there's no bump and I have no idea what she's talking about". My doctor also said masseuses or "massage therapists" are NOT doctors though they LOVE to give unsolicited medical advice. The whole experience really sucked and I want my gifters money back.

We found LA Bodywork a few years ago, and they've been amazing for both my wife and me. My wife had been dealing with back pain for a long time, and before coming here we had gone to more than a dozen other places. No one could really explain what was causing it or actually get into the issue in a way that gave her real relief. LA Bodywork was the first place that felt different. Lisa Marie, the owner, took the time to understand what was going on, explain it clearly, and actually help relieve the pain. They've helped me a ton too. The deep tissue work has been great for relieving tension from training, but what really stands out is that they go beyond just the treatment itself. They've helped me identify muscle imbalances and given me guidance on how to correct them. I really appreciate that their approach is not just "pay, feel better for a day, and come back again." They actually teach you things you can do at home to maintain the results, prevent issues from coming back, and take better care of your body in between sessions. That kind of honesty and care is hard to find. You can tell they genuinely want to help people get better, not just keep them coming back. Whether you're an athlete or just dealing with pain and tightness, I highly recommend LA Bodywork.
