"I have constant tightness in my neck and upper back to the point where doctors have suggested surgery to cut problematic tendons. 80 minutes with Steven gave me the most relief I’ve had in a year (and I’ve had a lot of massages, cupping and body work in that time)”
Rachel .M.
“The space and ambience is absolutely beautiful, relaxing, clean & modern chic cool and the staff who greeted me and checked me out was super friendly and accommodating. She’s really great at customer service. The massage therapist was very nice, cranial massage when face up was amazing.”
Ellen .H.
“Everything about my experience was exceptional. From the moment I walked in the front desk team was warm and inviting. My therapist Jonathan was unbelievable. Possibly one of the best massages I've ever had (and I'm picky). Thank you!”
