Fortunately, Jocelyn knew what she was doing. My husband definitely said it was rough because she worked so diligently to work out every knot and tense muscle. He said he felt like he was hit by a truck after, but once the initial soreness wore off, he said he felt amazing; it was exactly what his body needed. From what I could tell, this isn't the relax and unwind kind of massage. This is work and can be painful at first, but after the massage, Jocelyn leaves you in better shape. Thank you, Jocelyn!

I've personally been going to her for well over 10 years. Each time I attempt to have a massage at a nice spa (local and beyond), I end up incredibly disappointed and vow never to do that again! Melanie is skilled in many forms of massage - and is trained in Hellerwork, is a Reiki Master, graduate of the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, and I'm sure I'm leaving something out. She's not only great at massage - but is awesome too at energy work. She helps you work the mind, body, spirit connection...something we all need!

Which is deep tissue, realigning and healing. I one time asked her before she started her massage on me, "Heal me Miss Melanie" She was quiet, then I felt a warmth go down my left side of my body. She started her massage, and I totally relaxed. At the end of the massage, I mentioned that I felt a warmth go down my left side. She replied, "you told me to heal you" She told me that my left side is where you hold on to things, especially if you find it hard to accept help from people. Which I do.....

I had been searching for a good massage therapist for a few years now, ever since a friend of mine…read morewhom I had been going to retired. I had tried several places around town and would pretty much always end up with the same results; I'd feel better for a few hours or maybe a day if I was lucky. The problems seemed consistent no matter where I went. The therapists would always have either too soft of pressure or painfully inconsistent pressure as they struggled through their set list of pre rehearsed strokes. I felt like I had finally given up when a friend of mine called me to ask for a ride home from a massage appointment he was finishing up at. I asked him about the therapist and he had a lot of good things to say about Holly. Skeptic as always, but still very open minded and willing to give it a chance I called and made my first appointment. From the moment I entered the clean, well-kept office I had positive feelings about it. Holly greeted me with her warm smile and an energetic, yet relaxing positive attitude. Right away you could tell she had an enthusiastic passion for her profession and was here because she enjoyed it and not just because it was her job. Much to my surprise after entering the massage room instead of the usual 60 second check list about prior massages/medical history she actually talked in great detail about what I wanted to get out of the session and what kinds of things were causing me trouble and pain and needed to be worked on. Her responses were incredibly intelligent, while not talking over my head or making up facts to sound more impressive, and was able to anticipate a lot of the problems I've been having based solely on my responses to her questions. The massage went great. Her pressure was firm, while not being painful and even better she was always amazingly consistent with it. Every muscle seemed to receive the same amount of pressure. Instead of just rehearsing a series of practiced moves on my back for an hour I felt as if she had tailored the massage specifically to my needs and attacked problems head on instead of simply massaging around until the session timer beeped so she could punch out her time card and go home. It was easy to see after the first session that Holly was a rare find in any profession, but as a massage therapist she truly goes above and beyond to help people who need it. Amazingly, the usual "couple hours of feeling better" had turned into several days. I don't have any serious medical conditions to the point that I severely need the massage, but I do have horrible posture and I've played guitar in a band for years now and over that time the task of wearing a 10 pound Les Paul over my shoulder every day has caused me a lot of shoulder and back pain. I have now been receiving massage from Holly consistently for a little over a month or so and in that time my posture has improved tremendously. I'm able to stand up straighter and my shoulders don't hunch forward nearly as much. I never ever leave a session feeling like she left something behind to work on next time to keep me coming back in. My mother, who had somewhat recently broken her arm and has been having serious tissue damage in her arm and shoulder from the accident, has also been seeing Holly on a regular basis now. She also has nothing but great things to say about her experiences as well and has found major improvement in her arm's mobility since working with Holly. Another issue I've had with other places I've gone to in the past is that many of them almost seem like they're trying to book me for my next seven appointments the moment I walk through the front door for the first. I have never felt like Holly is trying to pull a salesperson-like pitch on me just to get me to come back next time. She is serious about being there to help and not just out to make an extra buck off someone or sell you something extra that you don't need. Whether you're a first timer or experienced massage goer, just needing to relax or in serious need of good therapeutic massage; I seriously cannot recommend Holly enough. Her knowledge, skill and experience as well as her calm, caring and therapeutic demeanor will leave you hooked after your first session.

This was by far the worst massage I have ever had, and I've had a number of massages in my day…read more This was absolutely NOT the deep tissue massage I signed up for. I have plenty of knots, but the therapist did not seem to be aware of them, let alone how to work on them. My back is in significant pain after my massage, whereas beforehand it was just a bit tight. Not to mention, the massage table was covered with musty damp towels, and the level of professionalism was lacking. My overall impression was that the business owner was unprepared for my visit and had an employee who isn't actually trained in massage perform the massage. I tipped the person who performed the massage 20% because I honestly just felt bad that she clearly had tried but didn't actually know how to do a massage.

I don't know how good she is but no one is good enough to disrespect other people' schedule. I find this extremely rude.

I was able to get an appointment with her within the week, and she usually responds quite promptly to texts. Julia's place and her attitude are both no-frills. She asked me in which area I was feeling pain, and took over all the rest. You can tell from the way she treats your body that she knows exactly what she is doing - somehow, she manages to work at the spots that you didn't even know were sore! I love going to Julia because it feels as if I go in with a body that is all twisted and crooked and she slowly straightens every piece of it out. She is absolutely amazing and has a true gift. Julia is also funny, friendly and straightforward, and I feel cared for and better after each visit with her.

When I scheduled my first appointment with Tiffany she was very professional over the phone and in person. She offers a variety of massages from Swedish to hot stone to shiatsu for a very decent price. My first appointment I booked a 60 minute Swedish massage for only $55.00+ tip. She played really relaxing music and asked several times how the pressure was to make sure that I was completely comfortable! It was such an excellent experience that I've had 2 more massages since. Recently I got the 60 minute Hot Stone, which feels absolutely wonderful. My appointment was in the morning and was the perfect way to start my day, I felt so rejuvenated to rest of the day and stress free. I am a fan of warmth so this massage was perfect for me. I believe that I paid $75.00 for the Hot Stone + tip. All in all I would give Tiffany 5/5 because she is reasonably priced but still provides a professional and relaxing massage. Another bonus is that if you only have time for a 30 minute massage she is available for those on request. IF YOU LIKE MASSAGES SHE IS WORTH IT YOU SHOULD BOOK TODAY!!!
