REVIEWS for my massage services

Toni is a calming presence and skillful practitioner, and her Durham space is an absolute oasis. It was such a pleasure to have the doors open to the breeze/rain/river sounds and smells during our session. In addition to providing immense relaxation, Toni helped me recognize unconscious tension I've been holding in certain areas, and I've been able to increase my awareness of that in order to consciously relax. My session with her was also my first experience with tuning forks, and they provided such a blissful end to the massage/bodywork. I felt physically lighter and more connected to myself leaving her space. I'm going back for another session with her tomorrow and have been looking forward to it for weeks!

I had a great experience with my first therapeutic bodywork session with Toni. Toni listened carefully to my needs, checked in frequently, and helped me relax and calm my nervous system after a stressful couple of weeks.

Toni has a background in body mechanics that makes her informed and sensitive to her clients needs. Her hands are skilled, strong and gentle simultaneously. She has a loving touch with a strength if wanted. She intuitively knew where to go to help my neck and educated me on how to better care for my bodies flexibility. I loved her work and wouldn't hesitate to go to her again.

Toni Craige’s “movement and body work” sessions are incredible. The experience combines all the befits of massage, mediation, and movement therapy. I felt great for days after even just my first session, and the work has helped me get in touch with my body in ways I’d never experienced before. Her style is both warm and totally professional, and she’s an expert at what she does. Whether you’re working on physical pain, psychological trauma, or anxiety, or if you just feel like you’ve been out of touch with yourself, then I can’t recommend her work highly enough. Seriously worth it!

What you will notice first about Toni is her joyful and open heart, which sets the stage for deep healing. During a session, her intuitive healing hands transmitted deep information, as if my body was being re-educated. It was learning how to move freely with greater ease and grace. I could feel her intelligence as a master dancer moving through her hands into and through my torso, which has been ossified by too many years sitting still at a desk job. Toni works in a layered and integrated way, in other words not just with the belly of the muscle, but through the fascia, and into the tendons and ligaments, as she repositions and re-educates multiple joints across the functional segments of the body that act as a unit. Having practiced the martial arts for 25 years followed by 24 years of Tai chi and Qigong, I can say with some confidence, that Toni is a Master, and like the most advanced martial arts Masters, she transmits information through touch. I enthusiastically give Toni my highest recommendation.

The ambience, music, health precautions, temperature and comfort were, in every way, exceptionally pleasant and relaxing. I am especially impressed with Toni’s expertise and experience, not only her knowledge of the body, musculature and all, but her intuitive ability to connect the physical with the neurological, emotional and spiritual aspects of the whole person. I felt deeply nourished, trusting her fully to uncover, relieve and soothe old caches of trauma from injury, emerging looser, lighter, calmer and more integrated, top to toe.

Toni is amazing. This was my first session, and I am completely committed to coming back!

Toni is wonderfully interdisciplinary, drawing on a variety of modalities and applying both her scientific knowledge and her intuitive soul to healing holistically.
