Healing Hands of an Angel!!!…read more The name book assigns the meaning of the name "Michelle" as "Godly Woman". Speaking as a Michelle, I can say that not all of us can live up to this tall order, but Michelle Gallant can and does. Her hands performed miracles on my body this morning. Let me tell you more... After a week of working at a camp for kids who have a brother or sister who has died or who has a major medical illness (cancer, HIV, Sickle Cell, etc.), I was beat down tired. The kids and camp in CT were amazing. But imagine how much love and attention kids like this need. They are often left with baby sitters and for good reason, their parents are exhausted. So, we nurture them with food, fun, boating, fishing, swimming, horse back riding, camping out in the woods, games, arts, wood-shop, late night sneak outs to do candle lit chats, etc. My back is aching, feet throbbing, neck and shoulders are killing me, all the while I have been hot and sweatie chasing after and running with wolves (aka, 27 of the most energetic 11,12, and 13 year old boys and girls I have ever met). I come back to Salem, MA to spend the night at a fellow camp counselor's home before my trip back to Los Angeles, and I can barely walk. When I mention this to my hosts, they wisely suggest a massage by local healer, massage therapist, yogi, and Reiki II provider... Michelle GALLANT to the rescue! She quickly squeezed me in for an hour massage. Her fees were reasonable ($80/hr or $50 for 30), she welcomed me to her home office, had warm, safe, caring, and healing energy, and immediately stepped into the role of angel for me. She also provided me with insight about where my pain was strongest and what that meant for my psychological and emotional work. As a counselor myself, I can also tell you that she was totally accurate. But, what can I say? I am a hopeful romantic and it takes a toll on me. After I was done, I convinced my fellow male traveler to bump his appointment up from 30 min to 1 hour. We both thought she was amazing! I told my fellow camp volunteers that I would volunteer at camp again just to come back and see Michelle as a treat for a job well done. If you live in New England, make an appointment to see her. She is worth the money and travel time and is a very gifted healer!

I had an awesome first experience about 3 months ago and I still love going to her. I usually go just for stress release and relaxation. However, last month I twirked a muscle in my back and I needed some special attention. Elaine did a wonderful job and I went to see her two weeks later to work on it a bit more. It has never felt so great. I will continue to see Elaine on a monthly basis or whenever I need a little extra TLC for ME! Elaine does everything from deep tissue, to assist with specific problems or just a ME time! Be sure to check her out.

It is unquestionable that Martine deserves a full set of stars. As noted by others, Martine's…read moremuscle therapy saved me. Also as noted by others, Martine is highly professional and a pleasure to work with. I came to Martine with extreme lower back pain from sports related scar tissue. I had gone to the doctor, receiving muscle relaxers. I cannot take medications like that and remain functional so I needed another immediate solution as well as a long-term resolution. After that I tried chiropractic work, receiving excellent help. However I realized the muscle work around the spine and sacrum was how I received true relief. From there I began trying deep tissue sports massages where I found immediate relief from the pain when it cropped up. Then I found Martine. Martine's treatments not only resolved the problem but also like others note, Martine gave me tools to help care for myself, extending the work and enabling me not to return reinjured. With the lower back now under control, with no further debilitating pain, I have since gone to Martine for treatment packages to repair specific muscles - once an upper arm and another a calf and most recently work on my forearm. Sometimes I arrive with the muscle almost unusable and within sessions I have full and pain-free flexibility and mobility. Honestly, the muscles of focus are healthier than their supposed healthy counterpart on the opposing arm or leg. Moreover, and again, the repaired areas do not return to their original injured state. My favorite story to tell of working with Martine over these last years is that the year I turned 40 my doctor's office measured me a quarter inch taller than I have ever been measured!
