Kathy comes to our office in San Mateo every week to do massages for the employees. We talked to a…read morelot of masseuses before meeting her, and I have to say she's the most talented, organized, and professional of all the people we spoke with and tried out. Her prices are reasonable, too. She does chair, table, and mat massage and uses some Chinese medicine and Thai massage techniques. I look forward to her visit every week and I'm so glad we found her!

Wow. Best. Masseuse. Ever…read more Kathy has spoiled me for life. I will fly back from the East Coast just to visit with her. She teaches thai technique,trains in qi gong and is currently getting her license in acupuncture - her practice is a lifestyle not just a profession. She knows exactly where you need the most work (usually my shoulders) and shows you what you can do at home to relieve muscle pain. Kathy proved a miracle worker when I was training for last year's marathon and a great way to relieve all that wedding stress.

Julie is an extraordinary Massage Therapist whose strong, confident touch is rooted in masterful…read moretechnique and anatomical knowledge; and is guided by intuition. As an instructor in a Sports Medicine course offered through my massage school, she shared a wealth of information which rivaled what I had previously learned through my wicked dominant Division 1 university. She had a unique-knack for teaching to myriad learning styles. While I can speak only to Julie's gift of touch as it has related to my body over the past five years, I'm confident that any knotty muscles lucky enough to get some table time with her, will simply melt into giant puddles of nirvana-ness. As an extra-added bonus, she's landed in Berkeley. No more schlepping to SF for my massages. Woot! East Bay representin'!

I have had the pleasure of Malinda's massage therapy for about a year and I can't recommend her…read morehighly enough. As others have said she knows just what to do when you have an injury or a problem area. In addition to general stress management she has helped my husband a lot with his knee pain and tennis related issues.

Vadim doesn't deserve 5 stars...he deserves 10 STARS! One for every finger of those magical hands…read more DO NOT cheap out on "deals" from other downtown businesses or be deceived by their upscale "zen" facades. They are NOTHING compared to Vadim. My first appointment (March 9th) with him was the BEST therapeutic experience I've ever had - and it definitely won't be the last. MY ONLY REGRET is not booking him sooner & wasting my money elsewhere in the past. Vadim has all the COVID protocols in place, including UV disinfectants, air purifiers & limited clients per day. His massage room was immaculately clean and it was very obvious that he cared about both my safety & comfort, as well as his own. I highly recommend a 120 minute session, which will seem far too short when he's finished. I basically received 5+ amazing relaxation treatments in such a brief period of time (deep massage, cupping, hot stone), that I practically left doing backflips while feeling some real inner peace (which is crazy, coming from a chronically aching, high-strung pessimist like myself). So now that you've read this - WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? Call or text Vadim & schedule an appointment ASAP. Please support his wonderful local business! And don't thank me...THANK VADIM!

Offering quiet relief from the busy world outside, Vadim seems to read tension and energy with his…read morehands. In a small little room filled with spirit, gentle music and calm i experienced healing and comfort like no other massage experience. He is precise in finding target spots, firm, slow, deep, not too much oil, not too much pain :) His prices are not painful either! I went on the recommendation of a friend. Now i'm a regular.

Della is very good. She is very professional. I have a lot of upper back tension and knots. She…read moreis good at making my back feel much better. She will do 30 minute massages or longer. Easy to get in for an appt, usually a few days to a week ahead of time. She is very knowledgable about human anatomy and if you are experiencing pain or discomfort, she has the knowledge base to help with your pain. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Very reasonably priced, actually affordable to get massages on regular bases. And, Della is a nice, sweet person too. No complaints here.

How is it possible that I've never reviewed Della? I've been seeing her on a regular basis for…read moreyears now. She really is the best massage therapist I've ever had. I have chronic neck & shoulder issues from 20+ years of sedentary computer work, but Della fixes me up so I can keep bringing home the bacon. An excellent masseuse and a really wonderful person to boot; you can't go wrong with Della as your massage therapist.

John is an amazing massage therapist who is knowledgeable and skilled in his work…read more I've seen John for a few sessions and i always leave feeling relaxed and refreshed. What i like most about my visit is how John basically creates a whole flow custom for my body, depending on what it needs that day. He has excellent control with pressure and uses technique that are effective for long term relief. John is communicative and responsive. I appreciate how he is up front about everything (what to expect, procedure, etc). He is professional and respectful with my privacy. I feel safe in his care and can be in full relaxation mode with comfort. I honestly feel so lucky i have met John and look forward to all my massage appointments.

John is an exceptional body worker - a true healer. I found him on Yelp, and have been working…read morewith him for over a year. I can't say enough good things about him. He is definitely not a "rote" practitioner (as are far too many massage therapists). John pays close attention and asks questions to understand what a client needs for healing, wholeness and overall well-being. I have a couple of chronic problem areas from old injuries; he has helped me with these so much! John is incredibly knowledgable and skillful, and more than that, he is an absolutely lovely and trustworthy person. I highly recommend him.

Jana started my first session by asking about my current health concerns, the medication I am using…read moreand my goals for the session: my main concerns were stiffness and pain in my neck and shoulders. And then our work began: I say "our" because Jana is not only a very experienced and talented massage therapist, but she encourages you to use your breath to visualize the flow of energy coming into and leaving your body. In short, Jana successfully integrates energy healing into her massage therapy, thereby greatly benefiting her work. Energy healing, or energy work, extends beyond the physical manipulation of muscles and tissues. When the flow of energy is obstructed or imbalanced, it results in ailments and health problems. Thus, one of Jana's goals is to restore her patients' physical and energetic aspects of well-being. How did her work affect me? After a session I feel lighter, taller and more energetic and with less neck and shoulder stiffness or pain. I also enjoy the head massage which I experience as highly relaxing yet also revitalizing at the same time. I am looking forward to experiencing her healing hands and presence on a regular basis.

Visionary. Healer. Extraordinary. Amazing. Wow are you an angel?…read more If you need deep body work, check out Jana Lynn. I'm never anything but grateful and impressed.
