Having seen many body-workers for all types of conditions for the last 30 years, I am very picky. I could tell right away that Tom was outstanding. He was highly focused and approached my treatment with a slow, methodical technique, working some very contracted muscles in my neck. Despite the pain I was in, I immediately felt at ease as soon as he began his work. After just one session, my pain was reduced by about 60%, and by the second session, it was completely gone. He is the best body-worker I have found in the Santa Cruz area. I can't recommend him enough!

This time around for my second pregnancy the sciatica hit early in my first trimester and I knew I couldn't suffer through this again, especially having a toddler to keep up with.

It's night and day from my first pregnancy. I was really nervous to get chiropractic work done while pregnant but Goldi was so kind and understanding. She made me feel incredibly safe and supported.

I appreciate the depth of knowledge that she has, and that she used the activator method/a gentle approach while pinpointing the adjustments. The office is also a very welcoming and clean environment. I'll definitely be scheduling additional appointments as needed.

LILY!!! Can one love someone after one visit? Well I would argue yes…read more I sought out Lily because I had been experiencing sharp pain in my upper back, under one of my shoulder blades. It had gotten worse over the weeks, and the muscle spasm spread to where I had difficulty moving my head and turning my body. I tried stretching and massaging it myself. I tried tools and massage devices. I asked friends for help. I tried ice and heat. I tried medicine and rest. Nothing worked. The pain got worse and my movement got increasingly restricted. (Hear the violin playing yet?! Lol) I am on a tight budget so I was trying to hold out, but finally I chose to prioritize health and wellness, so I researched several physical therapists and massage therapists, and Lily stood out to me. And holy guacamole, Lily did such an excellent job in our 1 hour session... I think she is a magician! I've been to massage therapists where I felt worse after... or felt nothing at all (as if they just rubbed lotion on me). No exaggeration, I was able to move my neck after my massage!!! The following day, all of my pain and muscle spasms were gone. Finito! It was incredible. This meant I could get back to my life because now I could move. Lily did that. Lily understands Body Work really well, she is professional and attentive to your needs, and she is a chill person. I really enjoyed working with her!

Therapeutic massage may involve some discomfort but Ive learned to trust that she is a healer and the results have been amazing. She is kind and patient and will listen to your feedback to find what works for you. Lily is a true professional, highly trained, with decades of experience, backed by a gifted intuition which allows her to find roots of pain and inflammation.

I called to see if they had an appointment today. I wanted to see Eida, who was actually the owner. However, she only walked until 2 PM. But I was able to see Sandra, who was very humble, super nice, and welcoming. Sandra is wonderful. I only had an hour for the full body massage, had requested on specific areas. Like the neck and the feet. She worked on those focus area for an hour and was great. I told her a little bit of my TMJ, she's very informative and told me how I can do home remedies massages for myself, as well as certain areas that we found were tender as she did some pressure points, and told me how to straighten my muscles. After the session was done, my feet felt great after standing for eight hours yesterday at work. My neck also feels very relaxed, I came in with tension and tightness, and she helped me loosen it up. Overall experience, highly recommend anyone that you see here, is all professionals with excellent technique. Only thing I wish before coming, was to let me know that it's only Venmo, PayPal, Zelle payments and that they didn't take credit cards. There were lots of parking in the space is very spacious. It's very clean, it's very peaceful vibe when you walk in.

I consider myself a massage therapist expert, and Erin is the best one I have ever had. Period…read more I am a long-distance runner who runs an insane amount of miles a year. I average 5-6 marathon races a year plus a couple of ultras. Of course, that takes a toll and I need my "fix" every now and then. I had seen dozens of therapists before I came across Erin in Los Gatos 3 years ago and I became hooked to her massage. She takes the time to listen and understand what's wrong, and then she works her magic. She's the only therapist that has been able to work on some of my issues around the psoas muscle or hip flexors. During the sessions, not only she works on problematic areas, but also helps train stretches and movements that can help if continued at home. The only downside of her becoming so popular when she was in the Los Gatos studio was that it soon became very hard to get an appointment with her given how busy she was. I am happy to see that she has now started her own practice and I don't mind driving 30 minutes to get my favorite massage. I am sure she will become highly popular as soon as more people in Santa Cruz find out about her. It will make my scheduling a bit more tricky, but I am more than happy to pay that price. She deserves the success.

Buyer beware! If you are paying ahead of time in full for services at Divine Massage and Skin, read…read morethis first! I give only 1 star on this review, because I cannot give ZERO. In September 2025, I contacted Antoinette, the owner of Divine Massage and Skin, to book 3 massage appointments for mid-October. The plan was to have her come to the Seascape resort, where she was doing the massages in suite. Her policy was to pay in full upon booking any services, which I did via credit card ($635). Unfortunately, our trip was cancelled. So I contacted Anoinette via text to notify her & request a refund well within the cancelation window. She promptly replied & said the refund would show up within 7-14 days. After waiting that timeframe & seeing no refund, I contacted Antoinette again to inquire on the status of it. She said her accountant had dropped the ball & she would do it right away. Within 5 minutes (not 7-14 days), I had a pending credit on my card statement. After a few days, that pending credit dropped off & did not finalize. So I contacted her again, and she said it was out of her hands. She could not re-issue the credit & there was nothing she could do. She told me to dispute the charge with my credit card company & she would approve it right away. So I did, and after a few more weeks passed, my credit card company reached back out to us saying the business was refusing the dispute. The business told them that she had provided services & that she owed me nothing. Not true. Then, the business owner said she had already sent me a partial credit & that we were square. All lies. Once I provided the entire text conversation between myself & Antoinette to the credit card company, they swiftly ruled in our favor. It took over 2 months to get my money back.
