Lela is incredibly skilled at working out pain caused by tight muscles, knots, etc. She explains what she is doing and how certain areas are affected by muscles I wouldn't think were related. She also provides tips to avoid future pain. I highly recommend seeing her whether during training or for maintenance.

I loved Kristin's flowing and firm style; she made every muscle feel so loved and tended to from beginning to end. Somehow her hands made my whole body feel very reassured and safe. Kristin tells the story of your body through her hands; everything feels so connected and whole by the end of the massage. She gave so much relief to my muscles and also to my heart space.

So thankful for Richmond Sport Massage offering services with new procedures in alignment with best practices for operating under the health advisory once cleared to do so. It had been months since receiving treatment which I schedule regularly for maintenance due to spinal fusion and related conditions and their continued professionalism made it possible to get some relief. I felt safe and comfortable in their care, the facility was well sanitized and staff took extra precautions to ensure that I had a comfortable experience. I have recommended this business before and am glad to share that I'm able to come back in again, and I encourage others (that are ready/in need) to do so as well!

This was, hands down, the best sports massage I have ever received! I have been a long distance runner since high school and have had a lot of manual therapy done to treat injuries and improve performance but none of those treatments were as effective as the work I've received at Richmond Sports Massage. It's a really cool little clinic as well, professional but not sterile with a great Carytown vibe.

She is always able to pinpoint and treat the source of your pain/tightness/discomfort. She also offers stretches and suggestions to prevent the problems from recurring. She is very professional and always discusses treatment plan before we begin to ensure you feel comfortable during your session. Honestly I cannot say enough good things!

Lela uses her profound knowledge of muscular structures to assess and engage muscle areas in need. Her regular therapy has significantly decreased chronic pain and increased ranges of motion.
