Previous massages were to address a specific problem. Today I had a massage for me, not just for my neck. Relaxing!

She took the time to explain some things I can do at home to help myself

I appreciate that Erika inquires each time if there are any areas of concern, she then specifically addresses and they melt away.

Always listening to my needs and then acting on them. She always works very hard to make me feel better, and does so.

I have been going to Erika for over 2 years now. She has taken the time to learn my body and how my muscle react to massage. Every time I leave I am so relaxed. I have multiple medical issues, and Erika has developed at technique that my muscles really responds well too.
