Melanie was a nice person. Unfortunately in NET / AK, the practitioner tends to say "your fear" "your insecurity" and that is a horrible system. What that did was assign a negative label to that patient. What's worse to address the patient's name with the negative word, i.e.: Robert's fear, Robert's insecurity. For a patient who suffers from self identity, very poor self - esteem and suffered from bullying and abuse since childhood, these wordings are damaging. read more

I started working with Melani about a year ago when I began experiencing inexplicable daily headaches which had eventually progressed where I was feeling extreme pain throughout my body, I was confined to a cane, and I was experiencing tremors. After about two to three sessions the tremors stopped, after a few more I was able to get back on my hands and feet a lot easier, and now I am completely walking without a cane and can carry relatively heavy items again and can LIVE. Being a college student studying music, if it wasn't for Melani I would've been devastated and would've continued to have difficulties in my education and work. I am so grateful for her kindness and her suggestions on how to keep maintaining myself even outside of sessions, and I would most definitely recommend seeing her! read more

Melani is amazing! About a month ago I decided it was finally time to do something about my stuff back and neck. I've had tightness and pain in those areas for years. It was to a point where I got use to it. I called Melani and she got me in a few days later. I came out of the session feeling like a new man. My whole body was loose and pain free. Not only that but my flexibility increased drastically because of the lack of tightness. I booked a follow up appointment with her immediately and it was just as great as the first. I am a forever client now. read more

I have had low back pain for 20 years due to an old injury. After two sessions with Melani, she broke up the scar tissue and I've been pain free ever since. I can not recommend her more highly. read more

Undercover gem. All issues resolved in a timely efficient manner. if you need it fixed go here. the result is awesome! i now attend regularly and my body thanks me. Do yourself a favor and book an appt. read more

Melanie was a very good masseuse! She was very good with identifying my injuries and worked them out pretty good. The price is higher then most but she doesn't just rub you out, she identifies what needs to be worked on and does very well getting the knots out without hurting you. I will probably go to her again. read more

I recently started to get pain in my ankle that wouldn't go away so I made an appointment with Melani. She is really amazing at what she does! She is able to find the potential underlying issues from an injury just with a short visit. Something that doctors would tell me to take pills and ice for now has the relief that was needed and a solution for if the pain comes back. I would highly recommend seeing Melani if you have any aches or pains that have been bothering you. She is a wizard of the muscles and will having you feeling as good as new in no time! read more

Meilani is a HEALING, massage therapist. I've had long term chronic injuries on my ankle that never went away no matter how many therapist I've gone to, Melani took the time to understand my injury and actually fixed them. Remember though, you need to understand an injury yourself and to not give up on it. Sometimes a painful area is just a symptom of other injuries and it takes a few sessions to go through it all. I have all the trust in Melani to do this. read more

Melani has fixed everything from my bursitis to my tennis elbow. I had a pain under my rib cage for over a year. Multiple doctors visits, tests and an ultrasound reveled nothing. I happened to mention it to Melani during a massage. She found the spot and worked on it and the pain went away after suffering for over a year with no answers! She fixes all my running injuries and keeps me on my feet. She can also melt your stress away. She is truly gifted! read more

Melani is the best! She helps with any kind of pain you are having and can help and fix old issues also that you may not have known you have. I highly recommend going to her and trying it out read more

I was having very bad pain in my shoulder and numbness in both hands and fingers. I went to see Melani and she did an amazing job. I had my first full night of sleep in months after having seen her. I now have my family planning to see her as well. I recommend anyone that's having weird pains or anything to pay her a visit. I can't wait until my next appointment. If I could rate her more than 5 stars I would! read more

Melani is fantastic! I first contacted her because I had horrible neck pain and headaches because of the muscle tension in my neck and shoulders. She got me in quickly and spent the entire hour focusing on my problem areas (some I didn't even realize were a problem until she fixed them!). She really got in there and loosened up my muscles without causing any pain while doing so. I just went back to Melani yesterday and had a full body massage that was amazing. I've really never had a better massage. I'm so glad to have found Advanced Bodywork-it's really a hidden gem! read more

She is very good and knows a lot about different message tichniques. I loved when she messaged my face. That being said, she does not do a very good prenatal message. I just kept feeling uncomfortable in every possition she put me in. She also did not focus on the area I asked. I have had multiple prenatal messages, so i was a little disappointed considering I paid more here. I would suggest going elsewhere for a prenatal message or go when your belly is still small. read more

Melani was amazing. First off I called and left a message and within his ten minutes I received a call back. I told her I could barely move my right side neck and shoulder. She got me in right away. She worked on me for over an hour. She was amazing. She referred me to a chiropractor that is Affordavle and asked me to come back for a follow up. She took as much time with me as possible to work as much as she could out. I can move my right side again and will be going back for a follow up. Thank you so much for fitting me in and working so hard on me. She is a great massage therapist and a very kind and giving person. Thanks again. I feel relief I didn't think I could get in one session. read more

Advanced Bodywork is a godsend! I have been helped so much by Melani! She has discovered problem areas i never knew I even had; pain that I hadn't even identified and thought was normal; and injuries that for the first time I'm finding some relief from. I've been given hope for healing. Advanced Bodywork is an incredible discovery and a treasure! read more

Melani is fabulous! I started coming here based on a gift certificate and I will keep coming back as long as Melani is working there! I've had massages for years but she is truly amazing! I have shoulder issues and her technique has truly put me on the path to healing. The atmosphere is calming and relaxing in the midst of the location. Never have I heard any noise or commotion downstairs. Nothing but peace! read more

I have known Melani for over 10 years. I have seen another massage therapist (only in a crunch, when she wasn't available) and he was not anywhere near close to her. She gets me in last minute when I am in pain, she has given me sports massages, relaxation massages, prenatal massages, and loads of information I use on an everyday basis. Look no further because you will never find someone like her. The morning after a massage, I wake up feeling like a new person. I have recently really been putting my health first and will hopefully be seeing her on a regular basis. She is amazing! read more

Melani is the best out there in this field. She knows what she is doing when it comes to actually getting you better and overcoming your injury. Don't waste your time or money trying to find someone else just cause they might be able to give a cheaper price. You probably will just waste your time and money not getting what you need from my own experience. I'm so thankful I came across Melani and Advanced Bodywork by reading reviews on Yelp. I owed it to write my own review to hopefully help others that are searching for someone that can actually help provide relief. read more

This is a very therapeutic type of massage. Melani will work out your knots without torturing you on the table (which I've experienced elsewhere). She's very kind and professional. Atmosphere is calm and relaxing. She definitely has a regular in me. read more

WOW!! I can't say enough. Meilani is the best. I had a lower back injury last year that has left me with nothing but pain. Just after one session with Meilani I was feeling the difference. After a couple of more I'm almost pain free. She will find all your troubled areas and work them right out. She's really professional and knows exactly what she is doing and has a great personality on top of all that. Thank you Meilani can't wait to make another appointment. read more

This was my first massage ever and my dad got it for me as a birthday gift and it was thee best experience I have ever had. My body feels back to normal and feels so much better since I carry a lot off stress throughout my body. Meilani was so nice and she really knows what she is doing! I will definitely be going back to her and getting more massages in the future. I already recommended her to some of my friends. read more

Melanie is wonderful! I had terrible neck and shoulder pain along with headaches. She got me in the same day I called. She is great at figuring out what is causing the problems and really focusing on those areas. On my second appointment she worked on the plantar fasciitis pain I've been having for over a year. She went right to the area I've been having pain in. It has been a few days now and the pain is nothing like it was before. I'm finally hopeful that I can get rid of the pain. read more

Milani is not just an experienced masseuse, she is able to "read" your muscles and relieve aches and pains at the source. It is definitely worth the cost to see her more frequently at first, while she gets your issues released, then follow up consistently to maintain that great, relaxed feeling! Milani was able to find and release a knot that I'd had for two years, through numerous massages, and it changed habits I had formed to keep from accentuating that constant pain. Clean, comfortable location and fabulous personality. Worth every penny! read more

Melani is AMAZING! I call her Yoda because she knows exactly what she's doing and how to make you feel better. My whole body needed some serious work. Before I went to her I had pain everywhere and tension headaches almost everyday. Now that I've been going to her, I haven't had one headache and I feel normal again. She works with your body, not against it. I highly recommend her, you will not be sorry! read more
