Larisa is an absolute pro! She is trained in multiple massage techniques and has a tool in her toolkit for every ache or pain middle-age throws at me. She is also a truly delightful person and an excellent conversationalist, if you like to chit chat. If not, she comfortably embraces the silence of relaxation too! read more

Larisa was easy to book with. Her room is spacious and comfortable. I asked for firm pressure and definitely got it. Her technique is different than what I am used to but all I know is that my body definitely felt better and looser the next day. I highly recommend West Wellness! read more

No hyperbole, I believe Larissa West is the absolute best massage therapist in Austin. She has a deep understanding of the human body, how it moves, where it holds tension, and how one area of the body is tied to another and may impact it. She's strong so she can get deep into your muscles and tendons. I always have to ask other massage therapists to go stronger but not Larissa. I always feel a thousand times better after a massage with her, my tension is relieved and I'm more in tune with my body. On a personal level, she's also just a grounding calming person. There are good vibes surrounding her and her practice. She's communicative, smart, and open. Lastly, prices are a thing. Hers are very reasonable. Just book the 90 minutes because you won't regret it. read more

Larisa is fantastic! She is great at identifying what you need most and making real progress improving chronic pain and tightness. Beyond great deep massage work, she is especially skilled at incorporating structural bodywork, thai message, and stretching as a component of the overall treatment. read more

I have had such a great experience going to Larisa. She has been my go-to LMT for years now. It's great to work with someone who cares about their clients and goes the extra mile read more

Came on back... Saw the owner. Her hands are quite magical....and she's not afraid of deep neck work (so many are) and I slept all through the night--not waking up to neck pain...this was WONDERFUL. I appreciate that she reached out and offered to make up for my poor experience the other day with that fella (I still cant remember his name) and will come back to her specifically for the neck (which troubles me often) Thank you again!!! read more

Larisa is the best! She really KNOW HER STUFF. She is super in tune to the body. She took one look at me when I walked in and recognized my hips were rotated and a slew of other things. She has been a huge help to me with pain I was having. I can't recommend her enough. She is also just the nicest human and really cares about her clients. read more

I've been seeing Larissa for 90 minute massages twice a month for a few months now and there is no comparison for how amazing she is. She has a calm, peaceful demeanor, but don't let that fool you into thinking she can't get into your body and work out deeply held tension patterns. She utilizes a variety of stretching, deep, and Thai massage that are opening up my body in ways that nobody else has been able to. Make no mistake, this is not easy work. This is for unlocking long held tension and takes commitment and trust. If you want to heal your body on a foundational/functional level, treat yoself to some time with Larissa. She's the best! read more

Every massage I have had here has been excellent. I have been working with Larisa to help gain flexibility and mobility, as well as ease tension. I have noticed a marked difference in my lower back mobility. In addition to stretch and massage, she has given me helpful postural pointers and exercises to add to my home routine. Highly recommend!! read more

Larisa is an amazing massage therapist! My husband and I used to see her on the regular before we moved away. We miss those healing hands! She is the kind of therapist that knows when to give strong or light pressure, and always finds the spots that need work. We loved how we felt after our regular massages with Larisa. Go see her as soon as you can! read more

I can say, without a doubt, Larisa is the best massage therapist I've ever had. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and her massages and stretch therapy sessions have helped me tremendously! She has also helped with my TMJ. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone who is looking to either relax or work on an ailment. read more

Larisa was kind of enough to perform an off-site session to help improve my flexibility. My workout sessions have improved dramatically. Larisa is not only a consummate professional, but she also is a wonderful women. I highly recommend Rise Massage read more

West Wellness is one of my favorite places in Austin for a deep tissue massage! Larisa has helped me tremendously and delivers an exceptional deep tissue massage. I leave feeling better than ever and highly recommend going to West Wellness for your next massage! read more

From the moment you step in there is this immediate evaporation of stress and tension. I literally sighed as I walked in and was welcomed by the amazing souls here. Such good energy and felt healed and restored at the end of my treatments. So grateful! Definitely making this place my go-to for my next self care day. read more

West Wellness - Such a peaceful waiting area - Massage Therapy Near Me - Austin, Texas

Wendi is a very intuitive and I left feeling better than I have in awhile. I also appreciated her explaining her technique and giving me advice for staying healthy between sessions. The space was very relaxing and parking was easy. read more

I just received an excellent session from Maryam! She gave a very good deep tissue, structural realignment and focused triggered point release kind of treatment. She was detailed and paid close attention to detail. If been a bodyworker/massage therapist for 15 years and have had many massages and Maryam is in the top for sure! Julia was also very kind on the phone answering questions as well. Space in clean and inviting. Thanks again! I'll see you next time I'm in Austin read more

I am not just saying this...I think I had the best massage of my life at West Wellness. Many of my experiences so far have been more spa based so while relaxing, it didn't really address my physical problems. My massage at West Wellness was thoughtful and personalized and you could tell they were extremely educated in their field. I don't live in Austin or else I would be going back every day! I cannot recommend it enough!! read more

I am SO GLAD to have found this place! I just had a thai yoga massage with Maryam and it was so delightful! The pressure was deep in all the right places, she helped with my tightest places and did some beautiful gentle stretching that felt AMAZING!! I get a lot of massage and could really tell that she knew what she was doing! Also, the studio is beautiful! So clean and decorated beautifully. The temperature was cool (which most people like but I get really cold) so they brought me the perfect blanket to keep me cozy while she worked. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town and am telling my Austin friends to go here when they need pain relief or just some quality self care! read more

I have gone to Rising Spiral Massage several times this year, and each time I have felt such gratitude for the peace and care that Julia and the team have built into the Rising Spiral Environment. This time I worked with Maryam, which was simply a joy. She offered gentle massage that allowed for quiet exploration of tension, and also a sense of agency for me. I felt like I was very deeply understood. I felt such peace and comfort that I later brought a friend who was working through a physical trauma. This was handled sensitively and kindly and with deep compassion and insight. Much gratitude for the immeasurable wisdom, skill and compassion you all offer this community. read more

Great bodywork by Wendi. She used a few different methods that were new to me. Very effective.

My shoulder has been hurting for two months before I decided to do something about it. It felt maybe it's only a pulled muscle and slept on it wrong, however it did not go away. ....until I found Natasha. She worked on my shoulder and it felt better right after. Her after care advise is spot on, too. Apparently, I'm out of shape. I'm now pain-free, thanks to Natasha!! read more

I got a 90 minute massage from Wendi because I have been feeling stressed and it was exactly what I needed to relax! I have lower back pain and have been seeing a chiropractor, but I should have just come here first because I felt so much relief quicker than what the adjustments were giving me. I also really loved that she took late appointments. I had the best night sleep due to getting a massage a few hours before bedtime. I will be back. read more

West Wellness - Massage Therapy Near Me - Austin, Texas

It's great working with Larisa! No one else has been able to help me as much with my tight neck and shoulders.

Larisa really focused on my problem areas and was able to pinpoint tightness where I didn't even realize I had it. She was professional and has a unique skill set. I left feeling so much better and can't wait to go back. read more

I had an appointment with Wendy, and it was amazing. I chose the 50 minute massage/stretch therapy and it was exactly what my body needed. Wendy is so knowledgeable, she explained to me why I was hurting and gently but effectively worked on areas of concern. She listened to me and made me comfortable to just trust, let go and begin to heal. Thank you so much Wendy!! read more

Wendi and Natsha are both great. Wendi has a great initiative, spunky, healing energy. She read me and knew how to help and we chatted for a while which was also nice. I work in the wellness profession and needed some love today and found it with Wendi. I recommend her and Natasha. read more

I've been fortunate to experience many massages in Austin over the years but Rise is my favorite spot by a large margin. Natasha and Larisa are both fantastic. Well worth the money, especially in these crazy times. They have an effective and convenient COVID prevention process as well, I felt quite comfortable with the accommodations. read more

Just had an amazing massage and acupuncture treatment! Highly recommend you come and check it out this week they're having specials and donating to a great cause! read more

I have bodywork done frequently. I've learned that the best massage feels like the masseuse is having a conversation with your body. Maryam's gentleness is deceptive--she gets the knots out, the spasms smoothed, the rest of you feeling oh so healed. She's terrific. read more

I am still floating from my awesome experience with Maryam I don't enjoy hard massages and have found most past experiences painful and unenjoyable. However, I now feel enlightened and optimistic that I have found someone who can deliver a soft yet powerful massage I would 10/10 recommend and plan to go again asap! read more

Today was a weird day and my back was hurting so bad. I was trying to find a good place to get a massage. I knew it was a long shot because most places were booked up. I've been friends with Julia for years. I gave her a call and was able to get in with Maryam today! She was amazing! I've had a lot of massages. This was a specific tailored massage to my needs. She looked at my body alignment and gave me exactly what I needed. My favorite part was when I was on my side and she was working on the side of my torso into my hip. I've never had that before and it felt amazing. If you want to try someone different please try Maryam! read more

Just went in for a massage with Maryam and it was fantastic! My back feels fantastic. I highly recommend it

I had a 90 minute deep tissue massage with Larissa and it was wonderful. Larissa is so knowledgeable and such a sweet spirit. I felt so nice afterward, she found spots I didn't know were tight. This studio is lovely and I recommend Larissa, she is amazing! read more

I feel like I hit the jackpot finding Natasha. Ive been very ill over the last 5-6 months and have not been able to move or exercise the way I need to in order to feel like myself. My body has lost so much mobility and twisted me up in chronic pain. Natasha took her time to recognize the biggest sources causing imbalance. I feel like my puzzle pieces are sorted and more like a human than a frozen zombie. I'm so excited to continue this journey with Natasha to reclaim my healthy body. Absolutely couldn't recommend her more! read more

Still waiting for a call back. My husband got me a GC and they will not call me back. We have left many messages. Jk, they got back to me. Issue resolved! read more

Recently moved and always tough to find all your new spots! Was so happy when I found Rising spiral as my new massage spot! This place is great- clean , staff is very nice and I always leave better than I came. I work with Natasha and she is fabulous! She really understands how everything is connected in your body and can work out any pain area you have. You can tell her passion and I love that she teaches you about what's happening, works you out but then also goes the extra mile to teach you stretches and email you exercises you can do at home that are very helpful! I prefer deep tissue massages & am always happy with the results. Highly recommend! read more

Natasha is a true healer! Helps me evaluate my body alignment and gives me great massages. Studio is always welcome and happy.

Beautiful spa! Natasha was wonderful. Friendly and she did a great job. I will be going back very soon!

Natasha is amazing! She works out my knots or problem areas and I feel so much better after.

Maryam Ghazi is an amazing massage therapist. She listens to exactly what I want and need from a massage. Can't recommend her enough.
