Monnique is such a gift. She’s incredibly intuitive, patient and I feel genuinely seen and supported when I’ve received reiki from her. I’m thrilled her studio is in the neighborhood and looking forward to more healing work!

Ben took great care to understand what I was looking for in my experience, and he delivered above and beyond. I would highly recommend him for an amazing Reiki & massage session.
by Katie on Feb 06
Ben is a great conversationalist - Able to work and talk at the same time! Usually when I get a massage I like complete quiet, but since Ben is a friend its a good time to catch up! I am impressed with his ability to multi task, and create an overall pleasant experience!! Will be back in a month

Been seeing Ben for over a year and recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent deep tissue massage. Is continually learning new things to improve his skills and brings multiple techniques into our sessions to enhance the benefits of regular massage therapy.

Excellent deep tissue massage. Has a knack for finding all of the knots in my body, and is always careful not to pop over them too uncomfortably.
by Elaine on Dec 06
Ben also gives great advice and offers new products to use during massages and uses new techniques to address specific needs. I’ve been going to Ben for over a year now and I highly recommend his work!

Super personalized services and techniques that really address the issues related to pain and tension relief.

This was my first experience with Reiki. Was not sure what to expect - but it was pretty amazing. It's been 24 hours and I feel a sense of calm that has not been present for quite some time. Every now and then I can feel warm tingly sensations around my chest and head. I would highly recommend this - keep an open mind and just let it be.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Monique to my friends and family & rebook again myself. The visit was part reiki & aromatherapy, part therapy session & part witchy cool girl hangs . She made sure to understand my reasons for being there & explained each step of her treatment plan along the way. I imagine Monique would be as personal or professional in her demeanor as her clients wished . She was very warm & made me feel I was in good hands . A lovely experience overall. She’s gained my confidence and endorsement.

Monnique has a true gift I have lived with chronic pain and various other health issues for over a decade. In that time, I can count on one hand the number of days I didn’t have pain. During our session I was aware of everything that was going on, the ambience of the space was magical, the body work that was done released years of tension, eased the pain of my nerve damage, and allowed me to sleep deeply for the first time in YEARS. I’m so happy to be able to work through my unseen health issues with someone who is knowledgeable about the human body, the mind body connection, how your body internalizes emotions, and healing. THANK YOU MONNIQUE FOR THE LOVE YOU PUT INTO YOUR WORK AND CLIENTS!
