I have just returned from my massage therapy appointment. I have been going to Essential Massage on and off for five years. Of late, I have been going to see Lisa for an hour long deep tissue massage on a monthly basis to alleviate back pain. My husband also goes for hour long deep tissue massage on an every other month basis. I also have to note that I occasionally call at the last minute, most recently last week, for massage, and was able to get a next day appointment with ease.

Parking is very convenient, steps from the door. From the minute you walk in for your appointment until the time you leave, the experience is extremely soothing and stress free. The receptionist is very kind both in person and on the phone when I make my appointments. Lisa as well as the rest of the massage therapy staff are very concerned for my welfare, asking what brings me in for the appointment and are adept at making me very comfortable. There is soothing music and low lighting as well as a warm table with blankets. Each therapist always inquires about my comfort level at different times during the therapy, i.e. level of pressure, and will adjust to suit my needs. When I go to the front desk after the appointment, the therapist is always there with a cup of water and inquiries as to how I feel at that moment as well as helpful hints on how I can maximize my wellness, such as drinking lots of water.

I can say that I always feel better after an appointment at Essential Massage. I am more comfortable, I have more energy, and I am able to engage in the rest of my daily activities in a more positive, mindful way. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Essential Massage Therapy to anyone, and have done so in the past, and I intend to keep going there as part of my wellness agenda.
