REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

My back feels so amazing! Julia has magical hands. She also gave me a stretch to do for my back that has helped tremendously.

Julia explained everything ahead of time as well as during the massage, putting me at ease. This was especially helpful after having been in a fair amount of pain earlier. I felt better after the massage but even more so hours later.

Julia is great, friendly, compassionate, and great at wringing out my lymph system.

Fantastic! I'm the elephant in the room with trunk- eddima, my swelling is on my chest and back. After one appointment I have definition between my shoulder blades and my chin is separate from neck! Thank you Thank you thank you

Julia listens to my concerns and skillfully addresses my discomfort. She is always spot on finding the source of my pain. A lovely lady who cares about her patient with respect compassion and professionalism.

Julia has a very caring but confident approach. She helped reassure me that, she would be both gentle and effective with the therapy and procedure. The results were amazing--Julia dramatically reduced the swelling and she increased my range of motion, while carefully recognizing and respecting my inability to tolerate pain.

Julia was fantastic and I could really feel the difference during the massage itself. She’s really knowledgeable about lymphatic health overall. Can’t wait for the next appointment.
