I had a pampering deep tissue massage experience that combines the therapeutic pressure of deep tissue work with relaxing, spa-like comfort. The massage usually began in a calm setting with soft music, warm lighting, aromatherapy scents, heated towels, a warm massage table. Darby used firm, slow strokes and focused pressure to work into deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. This helps release chronic tension, tight knots, stiffness, and stress buildup--especially in areas like the neck, shoulders, back, hips, and legs. After the session, I felt completely melted into relaxation. Awesome feeling! Book a session w her right now and u will not regret it. And ...... u r very welcome!!!!

The only thing that keeps me from awarding five stars is the need to go up and down stairs to the treatment rooms. As someone with osteoporosis stairs can be a challenge and took some of the relaxation out of my experience. Nonetheless, I would definitely recommend Vela.

Meghan gave me awesome prenatal massages, gave my husband and I awesome private Birthing from Within class sessions to prepare us, and is just a great resource for both of us in all things related to my well-being and the birth of our child.

I had a long labor of 50hrs she provided the support needed to make it through. This was my first birth and I didn't know what to expect. I'm very greatful she was there. She provided support and encouragement the whole time. Then after the birth she immediately helped me with getting my daughter to breast feed within 15min of being born which I feel has helped tremendously as breast feeding hasn't been a problem for us. Additionally she provided special herbs to help me after the delivery and she made me placenta pills to take for after the birth. Taking these has helped me balance out my hormones.

Driving home after my appointment last night I remarked that she is not only skilled but also talented; what she does is much more than the simple the application of learned skills.

Even after many sessions, each one feels unique; there is always a moment of surprise at a new touch. I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that she is the best massage therapist in town.
