Client Testimonials

Here's what our clients are saying

I have been getting regular massages for 40 years. John is one of the best.

Its a cozy setting where amazing massage work gets done!
Unsurpassed in knowledge and technique. You only have yourself to care for and Helping Hands is the perfect addition to your care.

Great space and explanation preview.
I very much appreciate John's knowledge and expertise. He is also very respectful and friendly!

Great location just a few minutes outside of town. I had an excellent experience from start to finish! They send you paperwork ahead of time that is easy to fill out online, and provide instructions on their location and where to park. John was sure to wear a mask during service. You are guaranteed to have a safe, healing, and restoring experience with A Helping Hand Massage!
The massage was amazing and totally created to deal with problem areas which is my desire. I am grateful for the expertise and commitment to healing.

Fantastic! I will definitely be back.
Just remodeled looks great!

I feel great!
