He has the perfect mixture of swedish, deep tissue, and thai techniques. I came to Adam for some intense upper right body pain and knots. I've never been that locked up before. He was definitely a big part of me improving and returning to normal. I'm grateful that I found Adam. I'm not sure I'll be visiting any other massage therapist in SF. The best!

Although I really don't like to bother someone to work so late either I spoke with Adam and asked if he was available to do a house call for myself, mom and my aunt. I appreciate him doing a house call for my family one after another. That really shows you how hard working and the dedication he has for his business. The can and will do attitude! Anyway, the actual massage. What I appreciate most is a therapist who uses their hands instead of their elbows. He can definitely work out everything I had going on, on my back. Very strong and really effective. The next day I feel all the troubled areas loose and I felt more flexibility. He is definitely a healer. One massage and I'm healed!! Thank you Adam! And thank you from the aunties! Thank you for coming to my ghetto ass house and being so polite lol Oh and he's very reasonably priced! I will definitely refer and recommend him!!

I have been seeing Eligio semi-regularly over the last 3 years, and he has fixed or helped…read moreimmensely relieve my tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, & assorted aches and pains, and generally been the engineer who has kept my motor running. I have found his practice to be not only soothing and corrective, but also quite enlightening and I've learned a lot about how my body's systems interact with each other . I regularly end up getting an extra 10 or 15 minutes of work done, because he wants to be sure everything is balanced and aligned , and at no point have I ever felt like he was rushing to get me out the door. I should also say that on the artication I have needed to reschedule he's been gracious and accommodating , in addition to this , on at least two occasions he was willing to reschedule on very short notice! I would absolutely recommend .

I can no longer recommend Eligio…read more As someone substantially disabled in a car accident just before Covid and with long covid I had decided to stay with Eligio as a provider even tho things weren't always smooth because for a time i thought it would be hard to find someone new. That's my bad. In the last year however Eligio's work, manner and ability to keep agreements has substantially declined even with consistent communication including phone, texts and in person communication that included several rounds of agreement making. Before this last year the issues were: he always pulled my hair when he worked on my head and neck and made a joke about the "hair pulling part of the session." Which is not just not funny, he knows he's hurting me but never upped his skills to stop. For years. That actually should have been enough to stop working with him. He'd be casually late for quite awhile until i insisted he notify me before the start of our session time. He never learned to calibrate to my needs had to constantly be reminded to not push too hard on my feet and back and not tork/tear my knees when raising my legs. This should have been a deal breaker given how long it went on. We did out calls to my home and he had to be reminded of basically everything including putting the toilet seat down in our bathroom. (I'm disabled and bending over is hard. I literally asked him 12 times to put it down before he remembered once on his own.) people are imperfect and I try to be forgiving and communicative. He did not put the room back in order after use. He moved all kinds of things and frequently did nothing to clean up post session. Annoying but not a deal breaker. Like I said he's just not paying attention. Over the past year several things have happened that made us decide that we cannot work with him any more. Eligio injured my back. Repeatedly He has always required feedback to keep him from using too much pressure or not torking my knees. But in the last year he made things demonstrably worse many, many times. And generally took no responsibility for that impact . Now I realize that's because he's just not able to attune to sensitive needs unless constantly directed. In other words: his sessions are not relaxing because he has a tendency to accidentally and repeatedly injure me. At least a third of the sessions for the last year he hurt me and I had significantly more pain when standing after a session. If I fall asleep in a session, he reliably injures my back. Every time. When I woke up in pain and asked him to fix it, he charged for that time having never mentioned it to me or asked for consent or created clarification. Which is code for he: he hurt me and overcharged me and then was pissed when I asked him about it. His response? He's short on cash and he worked over the session time. I talked to him and put my feedback in writing to him. We made new agreements that included getting consent for additional fees in the moment and stopping sessions if I fall asleep. His major concern of stopping a session if I fall asleep was "will I get paid?" Given that we paid on time every time, that was wild And utterly self serving. The final deal breaker was weaponizing my diagnosis against me instead of taking ownership of his decisions. He is someone who has a hard time taking responsibility for his impact. I cannot recommend him. Especially if you have pain.

I've worked with more than a dozen massage therapists over the years, and none come close to Nenad. His work has an immediate impact on my stride and overall fluidity, and he's been instrumental in reducing my chronic inflammation and tendinitis. Nenad is very strong, highly skilled, and thoughtful in his approach. He doesn't just treat whatever hurts that day--he puts together a targeted treatment plan that supports my training cycle and has me feeling my best going into races. If you're an athlete looking for someone who truly understands the body and how to keep it performing at its peak, I can't recommend Nenad enough.

Nenad is an incredible massage therapist. I have very tight muscle fibers and it really takes a lot…read moreof pressure to loosen up and get the muscles to release. Nenad can do with his fingers what most massage therapists can only accomplish with their elbows with all their weight behind it. He said he can also go soft and do prenatal massage too so don't let this review turn you away if you prefer a different style. Nenad is a big believer in loosening the muscles around the area that where the pain is located so the tight muscle has a chance to relax without the surrounding muscles pulling on it. He uses trigger points to help loosen muscles too which is crazy. For example, he will dig into the TFL muscle (side of the hip) while massaging my trap muscles (top of shoulders) and it really makes a difference. He is a registered nurse as well which I think helps him understand the anatomy of the body better than just a basic massage therapist. Lastly, Nenad is so fun to talk to. He lives a very full life and is always up to something interesting. He is genuinely curious about how you are doing, what you are up to and what you do for a living. He likes to help his clients network if they are interested and if he hears something as you describe your pain symptoms that he thinks might help he has a list of professionals around the city who can help. Nenad is a true diamond in the rough and I am so happy I was referred to him.

I recently was reminded I never yelped Knowing Touch. Shame Meg, Shame! Because Randy has given me…read moreby far the best massages I've ever had. In fact he's given me a complex. Once you go Randy, you never go back. You request deep tissue everywhere you go and hold everyone up to his yardstick. Meh, it was good, but it wasn't Randy good. His massages make you burn, make you grit your teeth and want to jump up off the table or chair (he has both). They grab every knot, every muscle and squeeze. A 'look here I'm the boss and you're going to be good for me' sort of attention grabber that makes your body shudder and collapse. Since I'm a wimp I usually ask for the light touch, the 'I've never been in a car accident so go easy' style of massage. But I still have to force myself to sit in the chair and take my medicine, because once he's done, ah, then the magic really starts. You float for about fifteen or twenty minutes, sitting there completely relaxed. You zone in and out and slowly come to yourself realizing you don't hurt nearly as much as you did when you dropped by, in fact you hardly hurt at all. An interesting accomplishment in the next few days as you're used to being incredibly sore after deep tissue massages, and you barely feel where his fingers released the knot. Barely register that you have movement back in your shoulders again because there's almost no residual ache. Knowing Touch is the brand I told everyone else to. I go to Kabuki, I ask for deep tissue. I go to a YEE where there's massages I tell them they can go as hard as they need to. But when I'm well and truly broken, there's only one man I'm visiting to fix me and my back and that my dear folks, would be Randy.

Randy is one of the very few people I will actively seek out. His knowledge of anatomy is exhaustive, and he uses it to break the biggest, toughest knots into smaller and smaller ones, until they are gone. When he is done working on me, I feel like i could be poured into a bowl or run a marathon. Possibly both. I have happily and unabashedly stolen some of his techniques for my own practice, and still have much to learn from him. Cannot recommend him highly enough.
