Different Strokes Massage Therapy

Dec 2023

I don't get massages often - about one every two years, when I've gotten pain of one kind or another. I did it again - worked too hard and hurt my leg - I was limping and couldn't put much weight on one side. I had seen Yelp reviews for Different Strokes massage earlier and bookmarked it. I made an appointment for an hour's massage. As others have written the space is very clean and calming. I honestly lost track of time during the massage. Vivian would press on certain places, 'pressure points' I guess. There was a big difference in limping in and walking out - pain was much reduced. Afterward I took a midday hour's nap that was more restful than most whole night's sleep. I'll definitely be back.

This was by far the best massage I've ever had. The therapist was professional, kind, and very skilled. If you are looking for a high quality massage, this is the place to call!

This is the best deep tissue massage I've ever had, and I've been getting ~monthly massages for a couple decades from local providers. I noted a couple of places where I had issues, but Vivian found old injuries that didn't hurt any more but still had tension and addressed those as well as finding places I didn't know I had problems. Vivian is a master of trigger point massage. Others who use this technique give you the "good pain" when they're digging deep, but then you have more pain afterwards because the triggered the wrong places. Vivian gave the good pain without the bad. Amazing. I'll definitely be back, and I'm torn about writing this review because I don't want her to get too booked up!
