Every time I find a…read morenew massage place that takes walk-ins, I always hope it'll be a good one, and this was honestly one of the best experiences I've had. I paid $60 for a one-hour full body massage, and unlike some other foot spas where they just go over your clothes, this was the full experience. The spa itself was very clean, the music was calming, and the woman who worked on me seemed very skilled and experienced. The massage was the perfect mix of relaxing and deep tissue. She even used hot stones and warm wet towels throughout, which made it feel like I got more than my money's worth. As I was leaving, she handed me a banana and a cold water, which was such a thoughtful touch. I really don't think I need to check out any other spots in the area now because this place was exactly what I was hoping for. I'll definitely be back. Thank you!

I had my first-ever massage yesterday at Connecting Touch, and am thrilled with the outcome! I have had pain and stiffness in my neck and shoulders for years, and Tylenol, ice, and physical therapy had provided only minimal relief. But I could feel the knots and spasms in my muscles dissolve away during the course of my 30 minute massage. I feel better than I have in years. I will definitely be a regular customer going forward.

She couldn't really assist me when it came to providing me directions on how to get there but only provided me with directions to go down the hill to be back at Chelsea's plaza. I was forced to reschedule my appointment as soon as I got there but decided that I would be better off getting a refund. My review isn't based on the service since I was unable to get one but it is based on the professionalism and atmosphere this place gives me. The place looked clean but the ambiance made me feel a bit uncomfortable. It was very dark and it looked like only one ceiling light was on. I understand that once you're in the room you want everything dimmed but when you first walk in you pass through a little dark hallway and have the staff staring down on you is creepy. (Basically watching your every move). When I walked in there I didn't feel any sense of professionalism from the employees. They were dressed in hoodies and sweatpants and had long stiletto nails. I honestly don't know how anyone can get a nice massage without these workers digging their nails into you... Honestly after seeing what I saw today I might just stick with bigger chain massage centers. I was not happy with how I was greeted or the attitudes of these ladies.

I got in and let me start by saying this if you want a nice fluffy relaxing massage... do not book with Dave! If you want a massage that will release the tension and stress that your whole body is holding... book with Dave. I have been having pain and tension and Dave released all of that. Dave has been doing massage for 21 years and he does it well. Dave is fantastic and I can't wait to get back in. I just did a 60 min and it was a good amount I could definitely use a bit longer but that's on me! I highly recommend Restorative and Dave!

I've had many massages all over the world, from Mexico to Mediterranean cruises and Ed was the very BEST masseuse I have ever experienced. He stretched me and massaged me.
