Over the years, I have seen about 40 massage therapists. I had such chronic issues that it was important to me that a therapist was available the exact day I needed it, so I always booked a massage with whoever in town was available. I had one massage with Rachel and knew there was no other massage therapist who could understand my body so well. I told my husband “I will never see anyone else again, she is a massage therapist I am actually willing to wait for.” I’ve seen her regularly now and she has really changed my life in how much her massages help. She is also so kind and down to earth, her presence makes you feel at home. Some days I want to talk, and she is so lovely to talk to and hear from. An excellent conversationalist. Other days I don’t want to talk and she lets me sit in the comfortability of the silence. I will be very sad if she ever stops doing massage therapy!

Excellent deep tissue massage session. Rachel also demonstrated some stretches and suggested I do on my own to improve flexibility.

This was my first medical massage experience and I really enjoyed it! Rachel is amazing!! She has a great bedside manner and is very pleasant. I liked that she explained her techniques as she went about. I was even able to move my neck better after our session. I went in with an open mind, and am looking forward to next time!

This was not the massage I thought I would get. I did not understand the difference between a medical massage and deep tissue massage. It was probably the massage I needed and I will plan to go back for additional treatment.

I have told multiple friends that she is like no other massage therapist I have ever had before! She really knows how the muscles interconnect and has taught me so much that quite often, the place you point to that hurts isn’t really the source of the problem. In her performing her job, she had taught me and my husband places to massage that might be the source of the issue, rather than just the spots that’s hurts. She really knows why she is doing and is so ready to educate you if you would like to know what she is doing as well!

Rachel was the first person to believe and understand my back pain. I went to a chiropractor and a physical therapist who did not help. Rachel took the time to listen and knew what to do to start correcting the problem. Would recommend!

Rachel is absolutely incredible. I have seen so many massage therapists for many years, because I liked booking same day appts for the days I felt truly awful, and almost never booked the same people. Rachel is the very first that I have stuck with because she has done things for me no other has done. The first appt, I told he what hurt, and she found a totally different place/muscle that no one has ever massaged and once that one released, the other muscle pain did too. Every appt is like this so far, where she finds a muscle that Is right and causing issues, that I didn’t have any clue was contributing to the problem. She is the most knowledgeable therapist I have ever seen.
Also, she’s so good at figuring out what pressure you need in different places. I’ve struggled with therapists not being gentle enough in certain places, and leaving me feeling worse than when I came in. She is tough on places she needs to be, and gentler in others. I’ve grown to trust her so much.

Rachel seems to always know what I need to get well. She is sensitive and works very knowledgeably but always willing to learn new things. A good attribute for a teacher!
