A truly magical, inspirational and spiritual experience awaits anyone who treats themselves to a healing and invigorating visit to Body by Darby. I was not a fan of massage before my visit as I had tried it before but broken and sore with zero flexibility and chronic back and chest pain from an injury and a lifetime of lower back issues I decided to try it once more. I am converted my friends, healed by the truly talented hands of a gifted, caring and delightful healer. The magic started with Darby's sweet caring demeanor as she listened with earnest as I told her of my lifestyle, my pain, and the activities I had been deprived of due to pain. She carefully described the session and the methods she would be employing and she gently encouraged me to let my body heal by letting go mentally and spiritually of the stress I was holding inside. After I got settled she entered the room and gently began to explore trouble areas as she narrated the session in a soothing voice. Then the mastery of her craft began to unfold as I felt years of misused muscle tissue respond and the pain began to release. The more she worked the deeper I began to feel the release until such a point as I felt my mind and spirit soar. I was used to flinching and wincing through a session and feeling only mildly better afterward. This time was different as I felt younger, lighter and most importantly happier with every passing moment. At one point through her guided moves, deep breathing and her reassurance I was released into a truly spiritual experience like none I had ever had. The amazing part of this is over the next few days the resurgence of youthfulness continued. The next morning I woke for the first time in 17 years without back pain. I hadn't played golf in two months and the next day I was on the golf course and broke 220 yards for the first time. I was working in the garden again. I was sleeping better. I was walking further and faster much to the delight of my dog. I danced with my wife. I am a 50 year old man who feels more like 30. Body by Darby will be a way of life for me now. Darby has given me freedom, she has given me life, she has given me youth and I will be grateful to her for this gift every day for this gift. Do not hesitate. Don't waste another moment of life if pain or tension is holding you back. Call Body by Darby now and remove the bondage of pain through the skillful master of healing that she is. Thanks Darby! read more

Darby does more than just body work or massage; she has a gift of intuition and empathy that along with a highly refined talent for massage and healing touch, understands how to move and release somatic energy within the body... stored stress, trauma and tension. She is excellent at what she does, communicates well to understand what you need and what you're seeking, and creates a very safe and comfortable environment within her office space. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking body work and massage in general, and in particular anyone who is looking for somatic release and to shift stored emotions to find a more balanced state. The value to my mind and body far exceeds the price paid. read more

Darby has been my massage therapist for awhile and not only is it a full body relaxation it's a spiritual experience! I keep coming back for her environment and how she treats my body! She is the best out there! read more

Darby came very highly recommended, and she has exceeded expectations. I was born with a hereditary curvature of the spine. Every time I have seen Darby for a signature massage, I have come out walking straighter and feeling much better. I have felt even better the next day. It's been an added bonus that Darby is a yoga instructor. I have benefited from Darby's yoga knowledge in that she has recommended helpful poses and stretches from tight spots that she found in my body. I have also experienced cranial sacral treatment from her. My internal organs felt positively rejuvenated afterwards. Darby is a truly gifted healer. read more

I left a review about a year ago, and had to come back and update it since Darby is so amazing at what she does. I've since sent my mother and girlfriend, who was initially very hesitant to go because she's so particular about massage therapy. She went, loved it, realized she'd gone to high school with Darby, they've since become friends, and said Darby's cranial sacral therapy was the best of any type of therapy she's ever experienced. My mother has sent coworkers because she enjoyed Darby's craft so much, as well. Now I just need to coordinate my massages every time I'm in town since I moved to TX. Darby even recognized a skin allergy I was experiencing, and recommended a doctor who addresses the underlying issues that cause allergies. The results of that have been phenomenal, so I'll take any recommendation Darby offers me. She's truly been beyond a blessing in my life. Go - set your appointment and see for yourself! read more

Darby has a true gift. After reading a few reviews, I decided to book a session. Her space is lovely and feels very good energetically. She was very intuitive during the session, and had a gift of healing that's manifested in her work. You could feel the heat of Reiki flowing. And as a person (and I think this is crucial), she has only good intentions. The best healers are good souls. And Darby is just that! A refreshing session in the walk of life. read more

Darby is very professional and knowledgeable. The Cranial Sacral Therapy and massage were excellent. I really appreciated that she took time before the session to really understand my issues - stress, injury, etc. The facility is clean and very quiet. Darby has inspired me to look for a specialist in cranial sacral therapy - it really does move the energy in the body and help healing from within. read more

Excellent massage! Darby is a great practitioner that pays attention to your needs and concentrates on them with focus and powerful intention. I have been a client of hers for months and never plan on switching to anyone else. read more

When you think of massage therapy you think of feeling good and relaxing. Darby goes above and beyond this. She works the body and finds areas of inhibition and soreness I did not even know I had. She adds movement and mobility into the release. Darby works the muscles, joints and even the energy of your body. When you leave you feel fluid, relaxed and so good. Theres so many methods for massage therapy, being a healthcare practitioner myself not only am I picky but I have experienced every technique out there. This will be your answer. Darby is skilled and I highly recommend her to everyone. read more

I am still in the afterglow of my session with Darby! I can't say enough wonderful things about this intuitive human and her ability to move energy, massage out the pain and leave one next level serene. I went to her not even realizing what I was carrying around physically and emotionally, and she helped me with both. Let me just tell you, that if you enjoy massages - I have never had one even remotely comparable to this. I left there feeling lighter, joyful, calm and with a completely free and open heart. I redirected my list of "To Do's" for that day, and went and took a dunk in the ocean, walked in the sand with my kids, took a nap, and proceeded to feel extremely present and filled with gratitude for my life. It was a magical experience and I can't wait to do it again! Body by Darby is something very special. read more

Darby is a lovely massage therapist! I have had massages regularly for years...I think massage is a part of holistic health. I have had some amazing therapists in the past and some not so great ones. Darby is excellent. She is calming, she has super strong hands, and she made sure to work out all of my kinks and knots. My shoulders were literally crooked when I went in with one being about 2-3 inches higher than the other. She worked that out completely. She has a great soothing voice, a great style, and adjusts pressure as needed. She is awesome. I can't wait to go back and would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends and family. read more

Darby is very dedicated to her craft, going into the energy clearing aspect of what she offers was something I had a lot of predisposed ideas of,she totally smashed that and was able to open up a channel of calmness I've never experienced, I've also had some massage work as well that was very freeing on a physical level. I would strongly recommend her to anyone. read more

I have been around the world, but this is the best massage I have ever received. Darby is professional, caring, and amazing at her craft. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to relax their body, mind, and soul. This is not your typical massage as you will leave feeling refreshed physically and spiritually. She incorporates her skills in a soothing environment and I will definitely be back again in the near future. Scheduling is easy and her customer service is second to none. Well worth the money as I left feeling better than I had in a long time. Her location is right by a beautiful view of the ocean and there is plenty of parking. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment asap. Thank you!!! read more

I have seem my fair share of various doctors and holistic health practitioners over the years, many have been very good and Darby is not an exception. However, what Darby embodies is exceptional! Her presence is calm and confident and her office space is inviting and warm. I saw Darby for her blend of cranial sacral/energy healing . I walked in with physical pain, feeling overstimulated, exhausted, and the tension in my jaw and face felt like it was making a home in my body. At the end of the hour session I felt at least 75% better across the board and better in some areas. My pain was relieved significantly and my mood and internal vibration felt expanded yet grounded. I will be back to see Darby and strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a healing experience. read more

Exceptional massage, very calm opening environment, effective communication in just the right amount. Pre and post consult on injury/problem areas. Great connection with Darby, able to pull me out of my head and into my body. Consistently felt when I was drifting and re-centered me. Song bowls to start cleared and generated immediate focus. Would have stayed all day, very glad I spent 2 hours with her. Left feeling very loose and relaxed, free from worry and stress. Also feel focused on priorities, distractions have far less merit. read more

My friends also love her for prenatal massage. read more
