Client Testimonials

Here's what our clients are saying

good massage therapy with deep muscle work.

Anja is amazing!!!
Anja is amazing. I treated myself to a two hour massage after a week of working 14 hour days. I feel rejuvenated and much less achey. Thank you!

An absolute pleasure. Care, compassion and she really listened. One of the best massages I’ve ever gotten.
Anja is very compassionate and really wants to help me. She answered my questions thoroughly and honestly. I look forward to working with her again.

Anja is a very good massage therapist, able to adapt to a client's needs. Great demeanor. Pleasant, and super professional. Scheduling appointments has been easy, and over months of appointments, Anja has never needed to request a reschedule. Highly recommend.
Very good massage, listens to your needs

This was my first massage with Anja. She was very warm and welcoming, as was her massage room. She was attentive to my needs and goals for the massage, very professional. My massage was immediately before my chiropractic treatment and I really think it loosened my tight muscles and enabled more movement during my chiropractic treatment.
Anja, is a consummate professional. She listens closely and uses an array of massage and body-work protocols to help her clients.

Make My Day Deluxe Treatment

Let me make your day with a thorough 3- or 4-hour treatment. These sessions are for anyone who gets up after a 2-hour bodywork treatment and feels like they just needed a little more time on the table. The Make My Day Deluxe Treatment starts on the table and may migrate to the mat at the discretion of both therapist and client. A ten-minute break is built into the treatment at the halfway point to allow for room changeover and bathroom/water breaks for both client and therapist.

Years ago, I went to a retreat in the Pacific Northwest where I helped a group of healers administer reiki energy work to as many people as we could lay hands on in two days. That weekend helped me define what would become one of the main focal points of my life. For all the joy I get in helping to facilitate healing, I still remain at my core a big nerd about many things, including food, nature, music, and the human body.
At this point, I have well over ten years' experience in modalities such as myofascial release, deep tissue, positional release, neuromuscular re-education and Thai massage, and I strive to bring everything I've learned with me to the table (or, in some cases, the mat). I tend to hold pressure and positions to allow the body to relax, and have a tendency to rock the body, traction limbs, and incorporate movement into my practice as well.

Anja gives a thorough, Thai based body treatment as refreshing as it is therapeutic with good attention to clients issues.

by Joy on Aug 10

Every massage is different and perfectly tailored to whatever is going on in my body that day. Anja is always learning and has an expansive view on the body from a holistic perspective. This isn’t just another massage. I always feel so relaxed and all the knots are melted like butter when I leave. 😊
