My favorite massage spot in RWC. Small and unassuming place but the nice woman who runs it can deliver incredibly strong and effective deep tissue massage. She rolls out every knot in my back with apt professionalism.
The massage therapist was very sweet and patient while I tried to find her facility (and ended up arriving 15 minutes late). However, the techinique of deep muscle massage was too brusk, rapid, and painful. It felt like a "one size fits all" approach. I'm glad it works for others, but I have chronic muscle contraction and pain which requires finesse, evaluation of the problem areas and slow pressure/release. It was very hard to get her to slow down or use less pressure in very sore spots. There was no evaluation or discussion of concerns beforehand. Due to the pain caused during the massage, I found myself more stressed when I left than before I arrived, with several muscles close to spasm. I am no foreigner to pain during a massage and understand trigger points/knots, but this heavy-handed approach to muscles already tense only worsened things. I really hoped I could find a local, reasonably priced therapist, but sadly have to pass on this place.
I didn't catch her name but the attendant was super friendly and professional. The place is super clean and smells nice. I called about an appointment and she told me "come now!" so it worked out great for me! The massage was perfect, I don't normally like deep massages but this was the perfect amount of pressure and she was super nice! Only drawback is because its on Woodside Road it can get a little noisy - but honestly I was so relaxed during the massage it barely phased me. Definitely will go back!
