I had chiropractic treatments that offered temporary relief (for this condition) and also some initial "deep tissue" PT that began to show some results.. I was referred to Stephen by some fellow pickleball friends and so began my journey/experience with Rolfing.. To start with, Rolfing is painful at times !! Period !! After the 1st session I began to experience relief of my symptoms which included severe nerve pain in my lower back traveling down to my calf muscles and causing numbness in my toes.. The Rolfing treatment process is a 10 session (weekly) treatment protocol that releases the built up tension/stiffness in one's facia layer of tissue through out the body .. Did I mention that at times it hurt like hell !!! Stephen did a very thorough job in each of the 10 hour long sessions and I felt things shifting after each treatment.. I'm fully back to playing pickleball, working out at the gym, living my life pain free and feeling better than ever.. and I made a new friend in the process Thank You Stephen !!!

I've spent the last four days considering this review and am ready to lay it out…read more There is no question that Sarah has great service, to speak to that; I called Sarah on a Wednesday to see if I could get in on Thursday morning. She double checked her calendar and said she could get me in. After much conversation, Sarah let me know about the Yelp deals and we agreed to an hour and a half, which for first time clients was only $65. Pretty impressive! The office was in a good location and she was sure to make the experience relaxing and comfortable. So one may ask, why four stars... Sarah did a great job listening and also had great technique on the trigger points. The one thing I have issues with is the knots in my shoulder blades. I'm not sure if we didn't have enough time for her to work them all out or if she did not find them with the other stress and strain in my back. At the end of the day, the knots are my biggest reason to get massages regularly. I will schedule another appointment at her office and encourage others to do the same. I'm confident she is my local solution to massage therapy. O

Kelly Ann is a truly gifted massuese and healer. She is a treasure to be here in Penn Valley.read more

It sounded like a relaxing massage mixed with energy work... Something I knew nothing about. I was greeted with a warm hug when I arrived to her very tranquil studio in her home. I was asked to shower before my session. Her bathroom was very clean and had a wonderful lavender soap. Her therapy room is filled with a air of complete calm, decorated with light colors and lots of crystals. She plays a very soothing mix of jungle sounds paired with rain and crashing waves. As I lay there I knew I was in Heaven. She prepared me for our session with some deep breathing and put her hands on the bottom of my feet. Immediately I could feel her energy course through my body. She guided the energy and my attention to where she was sending it with her voice. Possibly one of the most amazing experiences. She quickly discovered old injuries in some of my joints as if guided to them. She focused more energy accompanied with massage to an ankle then a tight hamstring. She completely went over my body relaxing every muscle and worry away. The amount of energy that Kellyann shares and puts into her session is unbelievable. The session had so many lasting effects. My skin felt great for days. She hand makes this really nice oil for the massage. I felt loose, happy and more energetic. I slept like a baby for about a week. Never have I met a therapist, wait... scratch that. Never have I met a HEALER like Kellyann! I can not recommend Kellyann enough she is an absolute treasure. She will change your life.

The only thing that keeps me from awarding five stars is the need to go up and down stairs to the treatment rooms.
