After explaining my pain points he focused mainly on my problem areas and gave me a tremendous amount of relief. I still got a great full body massage experience as well. My body, head to toe, feels so much better and I owe it all to Andy's magic hands. Normally I don't commit to scheduling another massage until I feel like I really need it, but my experience was so great that I can't wait to come back for a follow up! See you next month BWM! If you're looking for a knowledgeable masseuse that can talk you through your pain points and help fix them immediately, Andy is your guy!! Thanks again, Andy! You were a life saver today.

The 60-minute session was fantastic, and you have the option to request a male or female masseur. Make sure to clearly communicate your preferred pressure level right at the start so your therapist can tailor the experience perfectly to your needs. While I was totally fine with the pressure I received, communicating your preference will ensure you get the exact experience you want. I definitely left feeling completely relaxed and ready for bed. To help you know exactly what you are paying for ahead of time, here is a look at their menu in the photos! I would definitely recommend Tao Massage and I will certainly be going back!

I was in Alabama with 7 friends for our annual golf trip and hurt my lower back during round #1. It…read morewas debilitating, painful to even take a deep breath or laugh, no chance at playing golf. I googled chiropractic care in the area and found Archetype had good reviews. Booked an appointment for the next day figuring I had nothing to lose by getting treatment, I was just hoping to be able to ride in a cart and cheer on my buddies and didn't really expect to play anymore golf on the trip. I found Archetype to be a very professional health care establishment. Dr. John (Palmer) and his staff spent approximately 90+ minutes using various techniques on my back. I was still sore that evening, but seemed to be a little more comfortable. The next morning I woke up feeling really good. I was able to play 36 holes that day, carefully of course, but without pain. The following day I comfortably played another round. Dr. John's work was nothing short of miraculous, I'm so fortunate to have found Archetype, saved my golf trip for sure!

I had heard so good things about this place so I called on a whim yesterday when I was feeling…read morestressed & got a 1 hour massage w "C C" . ( price is very fair 80$ an hour- there is a 4% surcharge to use cards, so bring cash to save & don't forget to tip I asked for a NMT ( Neuromuscular Therapy massage ) which is stronger than most - and CC didn't disappoint! I was surprised at how strong she was . CC used her arms as well as hands for a deep soothing , almost stretching at times massage . She even pulled my fingers and I felt them pop ! That was so relaxing! This neck thing she did by pulling upward was also amazing ! As someone else has mentioned - English isn't the first language here so there are menus on the wall when you walk in - you point at the amount of time you want , the different types of massage ( Swedish , hot stone etc ) be sure you are clear . There is a clock that has a timer in your room - and you do get the ENTIRE hour! (Most places give you 45 min .) if you want lavender or coconut oil it's an extra 10$ ( I am not big on scents so didn't add this ) It was honestly the best massage I've had in Birmingham! CC is amazing ! And there is a system to how she worked ( I tried to point out my shoulders hold most tension & not sure she understood completely- but she covered EVERYTHING! She used a warm oil at one time and even took care to make sure my hair was covered w a towel ) They have a massage here I've never seen offered elsewhere in Bham -where they walk on your back ! ( I noticed the bars over the table where they hold on as they do this I think a lot of men must like this. ) . I didn't want that because I'm a 63-year-old woman. I would definitely use CC again. ) I cant recommend this place highly enough- BUT you need to be very clear about what you want -because as I said, English is not their first language . Someone left a bad review and mentioned that it looked dirty. (?) and not fancy enough compared to a Bham spa -I can tell you they don't spend their money on fancy furniture , but it is in a nice part of town. ( Vestavia ) i prefer to spend my $ on the actual massage as I have had some very bad massages at some very " fancy " spas and hotels . The entire placd was clean & simple . They had a hygienic face cover in place for me to place my face on.- the room is dark and calming w zen music I saw someone said they didn't think these people were LMT but of course they are licensed I didn't have to look at the degree to tell CC had been trained as a LMT . I have had friends that visited here & recommended to me & Im so grateful. There's not much talking during the massage but I could tell she was reacting to my sounds or if I moved ( etc ) if I said " that feels nice ", it was a strongest massage I have ever had from a woman , but she didn't hurt me I asked for your "Neuromuscular Therapy Massage" ( NMT )which is much stronger than a Swedish . I have never had a better massage ! I will be coming back here regularly. They're a wonderful place and no , they're not "fancy "if you want to pay $100 extra to go to a spa - you do you ! I have been getting massages in Birmingham for the last 20 years and I can tell you this is by far the best massage I've ever gotten . I look forward to trying the hot stone, Swedish & a foot massage soon! It's very easy to find and parking is simple - I called and asked for a massage at 2 pm - I wasn't asked to to fill out a bunch of forms and I was taken straight back.

The hospital didn't have one clue what was wrong and why a 19yr old athletic child was in full cardiac arrest. He stayed in ICVU for 3 weeks still no diagnosis. They sent him home with meds, heart monitor and tons of doctor appointments. I watched my child lose 45lbs in a month! I was horrified of thinking I could lose my child so I HAD to find an alternative. I was introduced to Stefanie at the Ryan Clinic. She created my son a strategic plan to get him better. Fast forward to Sept 2023 he was released from under the cardiologist care after hours of testing. His heart muscles had regained there strength, he picked all his weight back up and is back in the gym training... I watch my son in ONE WEEK after following Stefanie plan start to improve..
