Client Testimonials

Here's what our clients are saying

The massage was helpful to my muscles and spirit for calming and strengthening.

Very relaxing environment except for the occasional traffic noise.
I knew Mr Sun would find the source of an ongoing pain. His treatment was relaxing and I went away with suggestions to treat the pain until our next session.

Relaxing atmosphere
peaceful ambiance, respectful and kind treatment

It's such a warm, welcoming place. Who would have known that a "light touch" could do so much!!!
I learned about importance of myofacial release in my body. I felt like my body's well-being was important.

Very nice ambiance.
100 percent wonderful and helpful. Thank you, Claire! I felt very comfortable and was grateful for your energy, wisdom, and time.

It was very calming, relaxing and helpful for helping reduce the tension and knots in my muscles. I liked Jessica's approach. She gave me a good session to introduce me to Big Hearts Healing. Thanks.

Extremities Massage

Head, neck, hands & feet Why does high quality massage of the extremities feel so wholly helpful? Some say it's because these areas are maps of the whole body, thus as they are addressed so are corresponding regions. Also, the hands are said to be extensions of the heart, and as we treat them so too we are reaching a place of compassion, calm and inner strength. In this therapy we focus exclusively on directly treating the extremities benefiting your whole bodymind.

Cupping is a highly effective treatment in the Traditional Chinese Medicine toolbox. While massage performed by applying pressure, cupping is it’s inverse using negative pressure to lift, open and expand the body’s soft tissues for circulation of fluids and energy through channels and points. A potent therapy for many pain conditions, tension, colds and coughing and stress. Treatment is done on a massage table and can be a stand-alone treatment or an add-on to a Tui Na Session.

Over the course of my life I have sought and dedicated myself to explore ancient and deep pathways of enquiry, disciplines and practices which open us to come into contact with the mysterious source and ground of our being. In my work in and practice of the subtly powerful and profound healing art, biodynamic craniosacral therapy, I offer to hold, witness and support others in their healing process of coming into contact with--an embodied remembering of-- this deep ground and source of healing. It is beautiful and powerful work, I feel graced to support and witness.
In this work, I draw on my pursuit and experience of different pathways of healing, and on the ancient and living wisdom of many teachers, teachings and disciplines, including my two-year training with Franklyn Sills and Cherionna Menzam-Sills at the Karuna Institute in England, as well as years of teaching, study and practice in various strands of yoga and meditation, purification and subtle energy healing. These include branches of kundalini and hatha yoga, shamanic yoga, Source point Energy™ healing, and various forms of meditation, amongst them, the practice of vipassana.
In all my work I learn from and am inspired by the sacred presence of nature and all our creature kin, the gift of love and friendship, my life-long love of poetry, language, music, dance and the human search for meaning, justice and truth. In addition to my certifications as a registered biodynamic craniosacral therapist, a yoga teacher (CYT500+hrs), and Source Point Energy™ practitioner, I hold advanced degrees in philosophy and English literature from Yale University.

My daughter immediately felt comfortable with Jessica. Her session provided exactly the results we were looking for -- it was calming, focusing and grounding. Upon completion of the session, my daughter immediately asked when she could come back for another appointment!

Big Hearts Healing and its therapists are absolutely amazing! Every time I go there, I leave feeling lighter! Going there is like being enveloped in a huge long hug. It’s warm, inviting, beautiful and inspiring. Plus, the therapies I have received (cupping, Thai massage, nervous system work, etc.) have been extremely beneficial. I couldn’t recommend Big Hearts Healing more!

My Acuflow experience with Bruce was beyond profound. Upon meticulously reading my pulses and tongue, he cued into a problem area that required immediate attention. I was deeply relaxed and moved by my experience. The bonus treatment was when Alissa came in to offer energy work. Wow! Thank you Bruce. Thank you Alissa.

I think it is a shame that your spot is so hidden. I have three friends and relatives who are interested in Bruce's particular touch and expertise in the body thru training in yoga, acupressure, and acupuncture. He is really an unusually kind soul and I trust his opinion on pain and pain management. So I wish you had more space. But I will always recommend him.

Claire is the owner and very easy to contact. She cares greatly about each person. She checks up on me after my appointments the next day in order to see how I am doing. She listens to me in order to find out how she can help me.

Hi Claire, I wrote the following to you last night but it went poof. What did you do to me that I spent the entire day in serenity? Calm is not who I am yet the feeling was bliss. It carried into the evening. I was who I would like to be. The bad news is, I was only moderately productive. The good news was, I didn’t care.
