Client Testimonials

Here's what our clients are saying

I’ve been to Patient Relaxation twice. Once at the former location in Lansing with Kate and today with Ericia at the Okemos location. Both times were amazing. Both massage therapists are phenomenal. I love the addition of hot towels and essential oils and the room is very relaxing. Patient Relaxation truly is my favorite place for massages.

If you are looking for a calming, relaxing massage. This is your place. I come in a ball of stress and leave re-newed every time. Essential oils, hot towels, heated rice bags= a little slice of heaven!
Angie gave a terrific massage! Her strokes were even and strong, but not too strong, and not choppy. The pressure was perfect and she had me totally relaxed when we were done. If I could get the same price, I'd return often!

When I trained at the Mayo Clinic, I saw first hand what skilled massage therapy can do in the face of serious illness or injury. I specialize in working with people with cancer, fibromyalgia, and other serious or complex conditions ...
and just about everybody else.
Science provides the basis for my treatments, but intuition is my secret superpower.
Most of my clients ask me, "How did you know???"
I listen.
I listen to your words, to your muscles, and to your body's reaction to pressure, touch, and temperature. I'm quiet during your massage because I'm listening. All you have to do is relax.

Before coming to Patient Relaxation I have never been relaxed enough by a massage to even consider dozing off as I am a "Type A" person and my mind is always running on overdrive. Katherine's massages almost relaxed me to the point where I felt myself drifting off to sleep during my last massage! If you need relaxation, this is the place for you!

Wonderful massage!

I have been a client of Katherine's for a while now. She is really great at making the environment relaxing so much so that I usually fall asleep. My overall health is better because I have added monthly massage to my care.

by Jan on Jun 19

She has a soft manner that makes you feel immediately comfortable even as a first time client.

by Kathe on Jun 18

She respected that I wanted to have a quiet experience---and followed my lead. I did ask that she work specifically on my feet as well as my neck/upper back and shoulders. The feet were really the only part that could have been more treated. Maybe she didn't understand that I wanted those 2 area the most, even if that meant that other things were neglected. But it certainly didn't diminish the overall massage. I did ask that the waves-sound be lowered. It was, but it seemed that it got louder as time went on. Maybe not, maybe I just became accustomed to it so it seemed that way.

I enjoy combining shiatsu and compression into my relaxation massages. These techniques stem from my interest in neuroscience and how these specific techniques affect and calm the nervous system to help provide relief from stress and muscle tension.

Mainly it was strictly about the hitvtiwels and dents. Did not address the issues she asked that I had going on. Way to much oil to even be affective in any muscle work. Very much just surface work.

Erica is very intuitive and knew exactly which areas needed the most attention. I felt at ease and quickly relaxed.

Wonderful!

by Ronda on Mar 24

Erica used a technique to loosen the fascia around my shoulders and arms. I have never had that done before and not only did it feel great, but I could feel the difference the next day.

by Greg on Jan 25

She asked questions about problem areas before and during the session and paid extra attention to those areas. She asked about pressure and tenderness in problem areas. I felt great afterwards. We also discussed stretching during the work day periodically to help prevent stiffness. I believe she is committed to doing good work. I look forward to my next visit.

The massage itself was fine---she did a good job. It's the office policy that will keep me from coming back. To start: I got there not understanding I wouldn't be able to walk in---but there's the BIG sign. OK, now what..... oh, on an entire separate page, mid-way down in standard text---call this number. Why is that direction and number on the same page and the same font as the BIG sign? Masks? Still? I'm fully vaccinated so why? Your business provides personal interactive services---masks prevent that from being as advantageous as it could be. With your business, I'd think ALL your staff would be vaccinated. If not, it is one of 2 reasons: 1) fear of the vaccine---OK, I respect that, but I'm not paying the non-monetary price of your fear; 2) lack of belief that coronavirus & the vaccine are real things---so why is this an issue at all? I came w/ a Groupon to learn about your business. I did and it's not for me. I won't be coming back. And it's NOT because of the massage---again, that was fine. About the same as I've ever gotten anywhere else. Good luck in future.

Business response:

I'm so glad you enjoyed your massage despite frustration with the building & state policies. We are bound by masking regulations that apply to every health care office. The building requires that clients wait outside, & they get a text about that before the appt. We didn't know that you don't text, but the signs on the door are clear. Thank you for your good wishes, and we hope you find the perfect massage therapist for you very soon.

The place is very cozy and warm feeling being in a home vs an office setting. Which can feel cold and sterile sometimes. I think a little updating would go along way in helping to make the place feel more relaxing. some simple (relatively inexpensive) updates such as getting rid of the busy floral wallpaper and replacing either with a new wallpaper or calming color would help with the esthetic experience. It also shows the customer you are invested in your space and care about an overall sensory experience.

I would definitely recommend her!

Protocols for being in the space were reasonable and enforced, and everything was clean (important all the time, but especially during this time). The building inside and out felt more like a clinic rather than spa-like, but the room lighting, music, aroma (I got to choose which essential oil scents were used!), and of course actual massage transported me and I couldn't care less what the carpet looked like lol.

Business response:

Thank you so much! What a review! We work really hard to do exactly what you described: our office building houses mostly psychiatrists, therapists, counselors, and social workers (and us!), and our office suites are oases of calm. Even the counselors stop in between clients sometimes just to enjoy the aromas and environment for a few minutes. We look forward to seeing you again!

Had a very needed and relaxing massage with Katherine! Very happy with all precautions for Covid. Loved having the window open for the refreshing air, but the outside noise (traffic, sirens) was a little distracting a couple times but I still almost fell asleep 😊. I will definitely be back

Business response:

Thank you! We like to say "leave the thinking to us." When our clients know we're really on top of safety, you can just enjoy the massage. Yes, we occasionally hear a bit of humanity waft in through the open windows, but you can *almost* pretend they're part of the new-age music in the background. LOL. Seriously, though, it's a small price to pay for peace of mind. Glad you enjoyed your experience.
