My friend brought me a gift certificate for a 60 min massage. I've called and left a message no one…read morereturned my call. I sent an inquiry on Sept. 18th in order to schedule an appointment. They did not respond via email until Sept 28th. I was told they had limited times and days. So after conversing back and forth via email she provided a date and in which I responded would work. On the same day I confirmed with her and she never responded back. I sent an email confirming the appointment was still taking place on the morning of my appointment. In an abundance of caution I went up there the day of my appointment just in case and no one was there. I'm assuming because they have already been paid for the service that they feel they don't need to be professional which is really unfortunate. So beware if you buy a gift certificate for someone for this business.

I went to dinner this past weekend and was in so much pain I groaned getting into my seat. My…read morefriend told me that I should get a massage but I told her that I didn't have much money. She told me about this great inexpensive massage guy that did wonders for her feet. I felt so bad that I just wanted to go home, take some pain medications, and crawl into bed. That's when she told me I didn't have anymore excuses because Nova Massage Therapy will only come to my house. I gave in and after dinner gave them a call. The owner, Sam Kline, picked up, gave me the rates, told me they only take cash / or paypal, and within one hour was at my home. I was a little nervous having a total stranger come to my house. I live in the country, I have a lot of animals, in a really small place, and not a whole lot of room. I made sure to tell him that I have many skin allergies and he would have to bring unscented products with him. First good sign upon his arrival was that my dogs liked him, LOL! We sat down in the living room, talked for a while, and he gave me some forms to fill out. A short medical history, more information about my allergies, specifics about my painful areas, and I was impressed at how thorough it was. Usually when I get a massage at the nail place down the road they don't ask a lot of questions and barely understand what I'm saying. Sam asked to be shown what room to set up in so he could get everything ready while I filled out the forms. After he sat down with me to review the forms and asked me what kind of massage I was looking for. That's when I found out he was also a Reiki Master and would do energy work on me. We walked into my bedroom and he had set up a massage table in the middle of the room. I was impressed with the electrical candles which means no triggering my allergies for me. The candles were a wonderful touch along with the meditation music playing on his CD player. We did have to remove three cats from the set up massage table but Sam was humored by it. He left the room, asked me to undress to my level of comfort, and asked me to lay on the table, under the sheet, and facing up. During the beginning of the massage Sam quickly realized that just lifting my arms caused me so much pain it caused me to cry. He stopped the massage, put his hands under my neck, and then I felt something I've never felt before. It was like waves of energy were pulsing out of his hands, into my head, and down my spine. It was like being lightly shocked by electricity, but not in a bad way, and continuously for 10 minutes. When he finished he lifted my arm and my pain was reduced by half. I am a true believer in the power of Reiki now! He massaged my shoulders while I was laying face up which I haven't had done before. It just seemed like the muscles were being hit better then massages I got face down. At one point he hit a tender spot on my back and by massaging it all the pain drained out of my left hand. He eventually asked me to flip over and the sheet was big enough to avoid exposing myself. I have bad feet and hands also due to injury which were wonderfully massaged. He didn't miss a single spot and spent extra time on the sore places indicated on my intake form. Sam was professional, friendly, good to my animals, respectful of my home, and arrived on time. The massage was 90 minutes, cost me $100, and made me realize that there are big differences in the quality of Massage people. I've been getting massage at a corner beauty salon when I should have been getting it from a professional massage therapist / Reiki Master all along. Normally it takes about two days for the pain to return but afterwards no pain returned and I've even gone back to working out!

I've been coming here for years and have watched them expand their services and remodel to include private rooms instead of just curtain dividers. They offer Thai, sports, and my go-to deep tissue massages. During this visit, I opted for a 60-minute massage and a 60-minute facial. The massage included hot stones and soothing scented oils, making it extra relaxing. Phoebe always takes great care of me, appointments are easy to schedule, and the staff is flexible, accommodating your available time. If you're looking for a traditional oriental massage with professional, attentive staff in a comfortable, private setting, I highly recommend this place.

I went to chiropractors that were called maternity friendly but none had tables to accommodate for the belly. Dr. Jerry and Dr. Scott are very personable and remember small details about me despite their large amount of patients. I'm surprised there aren't more reviews for them since they have a lot of regular patients who seem as happy as me. As far as adjustments go, I can't speak to it on my back injury because I didn't see them during flare ups during pregnancy but Dr. Jerry was able to address my wrist pain postpartum. But then again, maybe I didn't have flare ups because I was seeing them regularly. During the last trimester of my pregnancy they kept baby happy and healthy in the belly and made sure she was in the proper position for delivery. They also adjusted my daughter when she was a week old because she wasn't turning her head to the right and she's doing great! They've been extremely patient with me as a new mom oversleeping and needing to reschedule my appointments and I am very grateful for that! If you're looking for long term/regular adjustments, they offer packages which provides a discount rather than paying per adjustment so I definitely took advantage of that. For people looking for modalities (i.e. stim, hot packs, ice, etc.) I don't believe they use them here or at least I haven't seen them during my visits.

First of all, Kathie has such a wealth of knowledge about anatomy and physiology, natural remedies, current products on the market, and truth in advertising. She caters to each individual and spends the time making sure you walk away looking great, feeling great, and are more knowledgeable about how to best take care of your skin. On my most recent visit, I got the works. Kathie is the only person in the state of Virginia who uses sugaring for hair removal, and it's awesome. It is kind of like waxing without the heat or irritation on your skin. In the process you also get a little exfoliation too (bonus!). It was so cool, I wanted her to do my whole body (maybe on the next visit). Kathie measured the hydration level in my face, exfoliated away all the gross dead skin, moisturized me up, and even got rid of all of my blemishes. She has this cool argon tool that literally took some huge zits and made them go away in less than a day. For each step, Kathie talked to me about my skin and simple ways that I can improve it at home. She also had great suggestions on products (that she doesn't get a cut from) on the market that will help in the long term. We also had a whole fascinating conversation about sunscreen that blew my mind. Did I mention that she gives a massage to top it all off? I walked away looking better than ever and not needing a DROP of makeup for the whole day. My fiance didn't know that I had the appointment and when I came home he asked what I did that today because I was glowing. If you are need of a little pampering, Kathie is your girl. If you've got a big day/event coming up, Kathie is your girl. If you've got some minor things to work on, Kathie is your girl. I will NEVER waste my money on a facial from anyone else again. She's literally THE BEST!

She gives you a lot of budget-friendly tips for taking care of your skin and doesn't push her products.
