Great work that hits the spot. Has really helped with keeping me mobile & skiing.

Nika is so skillful, talented, and kind! She somehow magically releases my very tight muscles every time.

Fantastic deep tissue massage! Nika is a true massage therapist ensuring you are getting the therapy needed to get your muscles in sync, not your standard hard pressing shiatsu massage i have received from other "therapists." Would highly recommend Nika for those that need massage therapy to help alleviate the pain or discomfort caused by muscle tension! Thank you Nika!

Takes time to listen to what has been going on with my fitness, nagging injuries, and goals for recovery, and incorporates this into her massages

She discussed the plan of action beforehand which was great since we had such a short time together. She was overall super pleasant. I still wear a mask when I’m around other folks and she put one on just in case it made me more comfortable and that was super thoughtful as I didn’t even mention it. After the massage, she told me my problem areas (other than what I came in for), some reasons why it might happen, and advised me of some stretches that might potentially help. Also, despite me naming my problem area (my neck), it was just great that she still worked on other parts of my back, shoulders, and arms as she pointed out, “they’re all connected.” Was great that she was thoughtful in that vs. just working on what I specified.
