I ended up cutting back my hour to 30 minutes. I couldn't wait to get out of there. Then came tje oil. Ugh. The roughest hands I've ever had during a massage. Im so sad. I waa looking forward to it for so long!

I made a great decision to go see Eric Almanza for my fibromyalgia-type pains. Unfortunately my…read moredoctors weren't paying attention to the issues I was describing, but going to The Art of Massage ended up changing my life because the therapist could actually feel the areas that were tight, needed to be worked on, or were tender (before me even saying so). The massage therapist at The Art of Massage has expert hands and knowledge, and also communicated back to me so that I could in turn also communicate the issues to my doctors. This gave me the confidence to describe the pain areas to my doctors and narrow down my diagnosis! Even though my treatment plan is long-term and I still have a ways to go, my recent flare-up has subsided; I no longer feel the suffocating discomfort I was feeling, particularly in the neck and shoulder areas, which is a huge improvement. I recommend The Art of Massage because not only will the massage therapist listen to your needs and problems, but they will also make you feel optimistic and hopeful, and gave you other health-conscious recommendations for a holistic approach to treatment. This has definitely opened new doors for me because I can focus on the next stages of my health, and I'm certain it can have the same benefits for you/other persons, so don't hesitate to give it a try. -Diana
