I went to see HemMassagen, and Reda specifically, on the advice of a friend. I had just landed in Stockholm after weeks of traveling and needed some help with shoulder pain. While Hem Massage works mostly out of private homes and offices (bringing the business to your front door -- lucky you!), there are some days when you can book your appointment at a gym in Ostermalm. The day I landed happened to be that day and, while I was rushed to get there and get back to my hotel for a meeting, I am so glad I made the effort. Reda took the time to sit with me first and talk about what was bothering me, and this meant that he knew precisely what to attack and how once we began. I am someone who doesn't anticipate relaxing much during a deep tissue massage (I mean, who can?!), but Reda maneuvered in such a way that I felt the benefits of his work even halfway through. I was so happy with the results, his professionalism, his input and advice, and his attention to specific problem areas, that I booked HemMassagen again for the day before I left. He brought his table to the hotel this time and, in the comfort of the morning and being in my own space, plus knowing his technique by then, we were able to get straight to work on some key target areas for unblocking that shoulder pain further with some hip and leg work. Surprised? You shouldn't be... It's all connected somehow, right? In any case, two sessions, five stars each. He also worked on a colleague of mine who said, "it was the best massage I've ever gotten...and that's going back 20 years!" So, I think I'll book him for a corporate event next time we're in town. Thanks Reda. Keep up the good work! read more
