A few weeks ago I finished my second Ironman Triathlon, shattering my pervious time by almost 2 hours. I could not have achieved this without Melissa’s help. Throughout my year-long training regimen, Melissa helped keep my body in good condition and injury- free. Her care and attention to education allowed me to become more in touch with my muscles, tendons, etc so they could perform the tasks I was demanding of them. Although sports massage can be painful at times, the fact that I was swimming, biking, and running without pain demonstrated to me the importance of massage in keeping the body healthy.
I’ve been an endurance athlete for several years, and having dealt with injury in the past, I believe massage was a key component to my success this year. As a professional in the running and triathlon industry, I am constantly asked about pain and injury, and I always tell my customers about the need and benefits of massage. I can’t thank Melissa enough for her support, guidance, and healing touch over the past year. ~ Anne S.
I’ve always carried tension in my upper shoulders and neck. Then I developed muscle pain in the rotator muscles. About a year and a half ago I started getting massage therapy from Melissa and quickly I started to feel better. As a result of getting regular massages from Melissa the tension in my shoulders and neck is managed, the pain in my rotator is gone and my whole body feels rejuvenated! ~Julie D.
I have been lucky enough to have massages all over the world and there is not a better therapist anywhere than Melissa. She is excellent, and has found “issues” I didn’t even know I had. I have chronic hamstring and hip tightness and every time I spend an hour with Melissa, I feel 100% better when I walk out the door. I would recommend her equally to anyone who simply wants an hour of “me” time, or needs an hour of more intense, deep tissue massage. ~ Chris P.
I had my first massage with Melissa today and she spent an hour working only on my right shoulder with a chronic condition. I left the session with full range of motion and no pain! That has never happened before! She’s very intuitive, has a deep understanding of anatomy and the inner workings of the body. I would highly recommend her for any chronic pain or trauma/muscular injury & recovery conditions. ~ Chip D
Melissa is extremely knowledegable and the best at what she does. I was welcomed, had a great pre-treatment conversation, I was made to feel at ease, had an amazing session, I was educated, and I will most definitely be back! I can’t recommend enough! ~ Heather L
Melissa has helped me stay healthy during my marathon training. Her experience as a runner allows her to focus her massage in a therapeutic way that other massage therapists cannot. ~ Elisa G.
