I cannot recommend Tifphanie enough! I originally reached out during a migraine episode and she was…read moreincredibly accommodating with her scheduling to get me in for relief. That session alone made a massive difference in my recovery. Beyond her flexibility, her expertise in craniosacral therapy and lymphatic drainage is evident. I've noticed significant improvement in my hip alignment - I can see and feel the difference in my drop foot. Just because it's more gentle than a a traditional deep-tissue massage doesn't mean it isn't effective. You will definitely leave feeling like you've had a full massage. Allow yourself to lean into the relaxation for both the physical and emotional relief it brings. If you're looking for a therapist who is highly skilled and genuinely attentive to your specific needs, I would call Tifphanie as soon as you can!

A wellness practitioner I trust implicitly referred me to Tifphanie when I was experiencing neck…read morepain. I had already consulted with a massage therapist but she was unable to help. The pain was disabling and I was desperate. After one session with Tifphanie, I was better. After a car accident weeks later, I had whiplash and was unable to sleep. Once again, Tifphanie was able to bring about significant improvements after one session. Tifphanie is incredibly adept at various modalities of bodywork. I am in awe of her humility and the serene intuitiveness that guides her. I have experienced profound healing from the cranio-sacral and energy work and strongly recommend her to anyone with acute issues, as well as chronic health challenges or PTSD. It has been a gift to know and work with Tifphanie.

She's caring, professional, loving, and very, very knowledgable about her business of healing bodies. Since working with Tera exclusively over the last 5+ years, I've also gotten to know James. I've had a few acupuncture treatments and some herbal therapy and it's great to have a one-stop shop for my health needs with two experienced healers. James and Tera are ethical, smart, caring, and very good at what they do. I love them, both personally and professionally, and highly recommend them!

She is particularly well-versed, and formally schooled, in the practice of Āyurveda. During a few sessions with Salomé, I stopped thinking of her as just a wonderful therapist and came to know her as a caring, trustworthy, and knowledgeable friend.

I have had great results from her care and compassion. Kerry specializes in women's health but she is so knowledgeable about overall health and wellbeing too. I highly recommend Kerry for her gentle, amazing work. She will listen to all your concerns and answer your questions with kindness. She has really made a difference in my life with acupuncture.

A divine healing experience!…read more I have been seeing Dee for weekly massages for several months now because she is simply the best massage therapist in my experience. Her new office space on Broadway near downtown AVL offers poetic space imbued with physical beauty, divine meaning, and a sense of inner peace. While her techniques are the best ever for me in terms of focused relief of aches and pains, Dee is more deeply a doctor of the soul! For me, it's like therapy that goes beyond words and conveys her personal presence in a way that heals my body and elevates my soul. Traditional massage focuses on relief for achy muscles, but Dee offers her intuitive self in a way that mediates divine healing, energy, and tranquility beyond what I have ever experienced from traditional massage modalities. We have brief intake and post-session discussions to make sure we're on the same page, and Dee always tweaks what she does based on our conversations. Ample parking, affordable prices, and her new centralized location are all practical perks too!

Dan and Mariana Watson bring their considerable combined training and experience to the table to…read moredeliver a unique and luxurious therapeutic experience. I was gifted a session with them by a friend who was intrigued by the idea of a four-handed massage. At first I was a bit distracted trying to track whose hands were doing what, but I gave that up soon enough and surrendered to the duet. These two are well attuned, so that even when working asynchronously--e.g. one doing trigger points on my neck/shoulders, the other, Swedish on my legs--their energies blend. The quality of their individual and combined touch is informed by caring, intuitive knowing, and skill. Which meant I could relax. As an energy-sensitive former bodywork practitioner, quality of touch is my sine qua non. Bonus #1: Dan and Mariana work from their beautiful home in a wooded cul-de-sac. Their beautifully appointed healing room is the most spacious I've ever seen, and their table has all the comforts--including double-thick upholstery on the face cradle so that one's cheek or brow isn't pressing painfully into the wooden base. I had a hard time peeling myself off that 20- square-foot piece of heaven at the end. Bonus #2: They take the time beforehand to interview their clients about health issues, touch preferences, expectations, and goals for the session. Afterwards, they took additional time with me to talk about their evolution over the years as students of the healing arts. Finally, some days later they followed up with a warm email of appreciation, making additional health-related suggestions and attaching several pages of illustrated trigger point work I could practice at home. Wow. Talk about going the extra mile. So yes, I highly recommend The Massage Duo. In fact, I'm gifting a session back to the friend who gifted me.

She was accurate with her finding the tight spots and massaging them out. Many massage people just do the standard and slide over the tissue, but Mariana really worked to get the tissue to relax. My neck and body felt so much better afterwards, and I slept really well that night. It was both therapeutic and relaxing. I highly recommend her without hesitation. Truly gifted and I am thankful I found her. She also took the time to followed up with a great email that addressed some things I could do on my own and things that would benefit me. Very caring and generous.
