Her kindness just poured from her. Our family has had a horrible summer with my son's murder. Heather helped to bring an easing of tension for a while. That is all we can ask for which are small moments of peace. My appointment was one of those.

She has a calm and soothing demeanor and she knows what she is doing. Not the kind of massage I am accustomed to with Dawn Howell, but it was definitely what my body needed. I felt so relaxed during my massage that I actually nodded off for a few minutes. Will definitely be back for another massage with Danna.

by Anonymous on Jul 24

The worst massage I have ever gotten. I specifically said that my left upper back got hurt and that I needed a deep tissue massage to help that and she did not even do any deep massage and only managed the area for like 10 min out of the hour. Spent 30 minutes on moving my arms super slow, which did nothing . Literally only massaged for 10 minutes out of the hour. My back still hurts and it was the biggest waste of my time and money. Would never recommend her as a massage technician. Horrible

I was really looking forward to this massage because I haven’t had one In a while. Unfortunately, I left feeling extremely underwhelmed… normally when Ieaving a massage I feel like a “new person” having some of the tight spots on my neck/back gone. Not this time. It felt like I didn’t even have a massage. Really not much massaging? Just pushing on certain spots for a minute or so? I feel like she only worked on my upper back for maybe 10 minutes, not much time on my neck/shoulders and nothing on my lower back. Something just was very different. I have had many massages and I completely understand everyone has different ways of doing things but usually they all result in at least feeling a little better after. I was very sad leaving.

This was one of the best massages I’ve gotten in a while. Just enough pressure throughout the entire service. Best idea to get a massage after sitting on a red eye flight from Las Vegas. I would definitely recommend to anyone!

Therapy rooms are small. When the therapist moved around the table, she ran not the table startling me. Rooms are no very sound proof. They ask everyone to talk softly, but it’s difficult to remember especially when checking out.

Hands down, the most professional effective service. Dawn is highly educated on her technique and the products that's she uses. She always has the products you need and delivers nothing but the best. I never walk away dissatisfied. She is worth every penny and most importantly, every minute of your time.

It was a last minute decision to get a massage for that day, all that was available was a 30 min spot, and it was the most relaxing 30 min I've had in a long time! Can't wait to reschedule for a longer massage next time.

I felt so much better when Brandy was done with my massage. The only way it could have been improved would be if you had the tables that the head comes up when you are laying on your back. But Brandy was excellent. I will definitely return.

I had a great massage. It was just right for what I was wanting, relaxation but with a pressure to stimulate blood and muscles. The only thing I did not like was the music playing; it was not relaxing to me. Although it was all instrumental it was too fast and the songs were popular songs with lyrics which was distracting to me.

Honestly, I was a little disappointed. I personally didn't care for the start on my stomach (I did have the option to start on my back) and didn't have the overall experience that I had with my regular massage from Nicole who was with Symphony. Nicole always started with the head/facial massage to relax you and did a much more thorough job. I did not get this. Not sure if you offer that but it has always been one of my favorites of the session. Brandy was very kind and explained a lot of things to me but overall honestly I probably won't come back. My husband felt the same way which saddens me since this was a birthday gift to him from me.

Business response:

while always grateful for honest and critical feedback like this, I am sorry the session wasn't what you were expecting. Communication is quite important during a massage, particularly when it's your first session with a new therapist and you're used to the specialties performed by your former therapist. As always we are more than willing to help you get back in touch with the therapists you are more familiar with. Thanks again for the feedback and have a beautiful week.

I am a person with a long history of pain as a result of years of physical trauma. My condition is complicated and involves many areas of the body. I also don't feel comfortable with personal treatments such as massage. The fact that I have been returning to Dawn for years should stand as a testament that she is a caring professional and non- judgmental. Dawn's massages are customized to my needs that day and always leave me feeling renewed. I, without reservation, highly recommend that Dawn should be included as a component of a plan for you're good health.

Dawn is intuitive! Her skill and professionalism allow her to assess my body's needs. I have chronic pain and circulation issues in my feet-- plus a boatload of stress that seems to gather in my neck and shoulders. She is able to find those pockets and work to relieve their pull and tightness--even if I do not say a word! She utilizes a variety of tools to enhance her therapeutic massage. My time with Dawn not only relaxes me physically, but is a blessing to my very spirit and soul with her positive attitude and encouraging words. She is a true treasure!
