Patient Testimonials

  • “Michael listens to what I say about how I’m feeling and what areas I need addressed and he is highly skilled at targeting the areas of tension. He is by far one of the best massage therapists I’ve seen in 30 years and has made a tremendous difference in my post-op recovery.”

    Robin S.

  • “Michael is always very professional and polite. He does an amazing job of listening to my concerns and addressing them. I have fibromyalgia and monthly massages are amazing at helping to alleviate the pain.”

    Michelle J.

  • “I walked in with one back, and walked out with a completely new back! Michael heard what my issues were, got after them, and gave me helpful tips as I left. I’m so grateful and will definitely come back.”

    Christine K.

    Margaret W.

  • "Michael listened carefully to my description of pain and then very skillfully went to work massaging all affected areas. I appreciated his professionalism as a therapist."

    Michael K.

  • "Michael's massage was great! He used the correct amount of firm pressure and was able to loosen up and relax my shoulders, neck and back. He asked where the problem areas were and what I would like him to focus most on and I really appreciated the care and kindness he exhibited before, during and after the massage."

    Julie B.

  • "Michael was thorough and skilled. He asked clarifying questions to ensure I got what I wanted out of the session. He has perfect pressure and perfect pressure adjustments, anytime my breaths were bigger his pressure released slightly while keeping enough pressure to allow my muscles to release. He was calm, confident and nurturing while maintaining pressure and hitting every point I requested. I will definitely be back next visit I'm in town."
