REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Gaye on Aug 20
I use Giselle's cupping and therapeutic massage. It greatly relieves shoulder pain.
by Luther on Aug 18
I highly recommend Gisele for lymphatic massaging, she has over 15 years of experience (if not more) and she creates a nice relaxing environment when helping you through the healing process.

Giselle was very personable and knowledgeable. My body reacted positively to the lymphatic drainage massage and the swelling was greatly reduced.

I've been getting a weekly massage from Giselle for months. My knotted muscles are always much better after my massage. I plan on continuing my weekly massage .

Healing hands and a compassionate heart along with years of experience equals a wonderful massage. My husband and I absolutely love Giselle. We leave her office physically and refreshed.
