REVIEWS for my Bodywork or Wellness services

by Akemi on Mar 14
My experience with my therapist Kathy was beyond phenomenal! I received a lymphatic massage, that was not only professional but she provided me with invaluable information and life lessons that I will employ moving forward. I was able to sleep like a baby the night after my massage and felt like a new person the morning afterwards! Do not hesitate to visit the ABG Wellness Center. Dr. Haynie
