One MUST visit Gaia Massage!…read more From the detailed questionnaire to an informative introduction of a first-time guest, it is clear how intentional Samantha is. All massage modalities are not safe for every body. Samantha communicates what your session will look like while also gathering the preference of a client. The room is clean and cozy. Easy to access for those with mobility challenges (wheelchair ramp leading up to the building). As for the massage, I left feeling balanced and the freedom from daily chronic pain. It can feel anxiety inducing to see a new therapist that provides physical touch. From immediate touch, I felt Samantha provided empathy, compassion, and a safe space to heal. It is now day four after the massage, and I feel fantastic. There have been zero flare-ups after the massage (a common occurrence after a massage when one battles inflammatory challenges). With a mother as a massage therapist of 34 years, I am picky. Samantha checked all my boxes AND SOME! I normally do not book immediately, and felt safe to rebook for November. Like anything, Massage is an investment. I'd rather focus on preventive care now than be completely disabled and burdened by my health years from now. By prioritizing finances, most humans can afford massage. I recommend Samanatha as an exceptional guide in your journey of healing!

I found Louisville Body Rubs on yelp as I was desperately looking for a massage therapist studio…read morethat was open on Sunday. I work on my feet all day and on Saturdays so makes it really hard to find a place that's open around my schedule. As I was approaching the studio the lift driver that was driving me recognize the location and said that I was in for a treat! I had no idea, Louisville Body Rubs is a local Secret gem! James is the sweetest most lovely person and he has the most calming and relaxing atmosphere. I was so lucky to find him!! After my massages with James I'm refreshed invigorated and not in pain like massages sometimes can be. You can tell he truly loves his job and that reflects in the awesome service and love and care he puts into his business. I've had many massages at many locations and so I feel like I can speak as an expert. Try Louisville Body Rubs, you will not be disappointed!

There are few things more wonderful than a great massage, and Jen Harrison delivers on that front!…read more I can always tell when I need a massage -- the tension in my neck gets to where it won't let up, and I know that it's time to leave it to a pro. Having recently heard about Jen Harrison, I decided to check her out when I some free time recently. Located on Dundee Rd, she is in the building on the corner of Bardstown, Dundee and Douglass, directly across from the Twig and Leaf. The sign is deceptive, "Metro" is the biggest name on the marquee. I walked past it once before giving her a call. She answered on the first ring and pleasantly directed me to where I needed to go. Once inside, the space is clean, welcoming, and comfortable. I quickly jumped onto the heated table and let her work her magic. We had discussed which places I was feeling needed the most work, so she made sure to spend extra time on those areas during the session. Pressure was just right, and I could feel a good deal of my stress melting away as she kneaded every knot that she encountered. I got a 90 minute massage, and I highly recommend that you do the same. That extra relaxation is worth the additional dough. If you're thinking of getting a massage soon, don't hesitate to check out Jen's practice! You may quickly find a new favorite way to unwind when you do.

The room was dim with music play low which gave a peaceful feel and set the mood for the massage. Jen was great about explaining the treatment. When she began the massage, I could feel my body responding. At times, it felt so good and rejuvenating, I could feel myself falling asleep. When she was massaging my back and neck (my problem areas) I could feel the pain, but even that felt good. After the massage, I felt the difference in my body. I will definitely be returning.

She was incredibly kind and helpful, especially knowing it was my first time. I was the only person at the spa so I didn't experience anything more than the sound of music and running water. I wasn't sure what to expect. Here's what I learned that may be helpful to you for the head spa experience: - The Thai bed offered the comfortable, wider bed. It was heated and I was covered with blankets. - You will wear a towel on your top. Straps would be in the way. Come wearing a tube top, something that can be pulled down, or slip off your bra. - If you don't have warm socks, they offer fuzzy socks. - Lockers are provided for security. The key is attached to a bracelet and you can slip it on your wrist. - A scalp analysis is completed before and after. - The treatment started with a massage and it continues on and off throughout. - The pressure isn't painful but it can be intense, including on your scalp. My arm muscles were very tight so I was mindful to breathe through the soreness. - The head massagers are amazing. I've already looked up where to buy my own! -Your hair will be washed multiple times. Aveda products are used. Overall, a wonderful experience. It is definitely a splurge for me; however, this will be a treatment I'll come back for to keep my scalp and hair healthier, plus have an opportunity to relax.

Wonderful experience with Mo! My lower back feels fossilized sometimes because it's soooo tight,…read morebut Mo was so thorough and put in a lot of work to help alleviate the pain and stiffness, which has plagued me for about 20 years. I am fit and I am a longtime yoga practitioner. I understand my role in managing these issues, but no amount of exercise can offset 8 hours sitting at a computer a day. A good massage is sometimes the only thing that can help when my body really starts locking up. Ive tried a number of massage therapists who are trained through westernized programs, and I even had a standing appointment with a wonderful reiki master who was a massage instructor for many years. Unfortunately, none of these therapists (who were legitimately excellent) were able to provide much relief for issues like persistent psoas tightness and snapping hip syndrome, etc. Mo is the first massage therapist who really made a difference in my pain and my low back and hip function, after just one session. I don't know if I truly do need deep tissue work or if it just *feels* as if I need deep tissue massage to me because of my usual experiences, but I always ask for deep work and rarely feel as though it's even close to being deep enough. A lot of massage therapists just don't seem to have more than textbook classroom-based understandings of the body, and they tend to try to use sessions to lecture me about the most basic things or assert their expertise, even while they're failing to recognize where my muscles are tight and how to actually address the tightness. That's why I decided to try an eastern-based practitioner this time. This was a fairly vigorous and intense session and I got the exact pressure I wanted/needed, without having to even say anything. It felt as though I finally got some release along my spine. She also did exceptional work on my shoulders and mid-back as well and gave a brief scalp massage. It made my whole week! Lalai is my new standing massage therapy provider and I highly recommend them, and Mo :)
