Anna is always very welcoming, she has a presence that makes me feel calm and at ease. She takes time to inquire about what’s going on in my life and in my body, so she can address my needs throughout the session. Anna is attentive during the session and adjusts based on my feedback. She is informative and a great conversationalist, but also recognizes when I need to zone out. I notice a huge positive difference in my overall well-being when I see her monthly. When life gets in the way and I miss a month, my body reminds me how important it is to make an appointment.

I was super nervous. I think Anne knew that. It was my first full body massage. Anne listened to my concerns and then listened with her fingers. I was way outside my comfort zone and made myself continue and I was very happy I did. I am a little sore as to be expected. I will be scheduling regular appointments to augment my healing regimen. I was very impressed with her ability to read me. As a fellow empath I appreciate the gift used in such a positive healing way. Thank you Anne, you made my first experience comfortable and enjoyable.

Well there was 30 minutes of shoulder massage and five minutes of neck and no head massage. That was very disappointing as I needed the neck. It would have helped if she’d asked if anything was bothering me or if she could help with anything. I left with my original stiff neck and was super bummed she had very little interest in why I’d come for a visit. It seems important to me when you’re a healer of any sort to be in touch with your clients.
