My therapist was Ewa, I hope I have spelled it correctly. She asked good questions and even better really listened to what my needs were. She was also highly intuitive and knew exactly what to do, and used just the right amount of pressure for my problem areas during my 1 hour customized massage. The very warm towels for each foot at the end was such a nice touch. The table is wonderfully comfortable and was heated at just the right temperature for me. The linens were all clean and so very soft. Ewa is excellent. The reception area and massage room were very clean, relaxing esthetics for decor

I have been Coming here for several years and I can't I can't say enough good things about the place. It is extremely clean and very comfortable rooms. It's obvious the owner takes great pride pride in her establishment. EWA IS My therapist And She is extremely knowledgeable about the body and knows how to hit my trigger points that are aggravating me without me even saying so. I have been getting massages for decades however I finally learned that to get a deep tissue massage you don't have to hurt when it's over. If the therapist knows what they're doing it shouldn't hurt Actually the opposite

This is only the second massage I received, so I was a bit unsure of the process. Scheduling was pretty easy online (though limited availability from my perspective). Ewa did a great job. Spoke to me about what was going on with my neck specifically and overall body tension and/or pain. I felt some immediate relief. Gave myself another day of rest and was able to go back to my running a couple days later with great results.
