Ruth just "knows" where those sore spots are and amazingly makes them better. She is professional, courteous and caring. Best massage therapist in the world, in my opinion! XOXO

Ruth was so welcoming and calming. Her place is very clean and inviting. She did a great job working on a problematic muscle injury. I slept better that night after my massage than I had in weeks! The pain is much less intense than before. Thanks so much Ruth!
