Cathi is very capable and experienced. She listens to your needs and executes with precision. I would highly recommend her.

Going for my 1st time, it was the best massage I had ever had. Definitely helped my Neck tightness. Going back again soon.

Cathie took time …….asked and listen to what my needs were, I feel she completely addressed my areas of concern. She is skilled in many different types of massage, I highly recommend her, and have scheduled my next massage 🙌🏻' Thank you Cathie

I had an unexpected back problem but got the whole body deep tissue. felt much better - and the next day I headed out for a 1000 mile drive. sitting in a car that long is difficult for me, but it went much better than expected

I have several muscular issues that are resolved with deep tissue massage. Cathi has a good understanding of body connections.

Excellent! Relaxing, yet worked out the places where I was carrying tension.
by Anonymous on Jun 08
We talked for a few minutes about what issues I have and about what I wanted to get out of the massage. She was able to individualize my treatment.
by Tam on Jun 08
We love Cathi and you know you’ve had a deep tissue massage when she is done. She is always on time and makes you feel comfortable.
