Today I received the best Swedish massage I have ever experienced from Jenifer John's at Mendocino Massage. Her technique, flow, energy and pressure were all absolutely perfect, I cannot give higher praise than this. The massage studio was clean and orderly, a very relaxing environment. I highly recommend and although I'm not in the area very much, I'm going to make it back here just to experience another massage by Jen.

Oh my goodness is the only way to begin this review…read more I was in Mendocino for a long weekend and decided I really needed a massage. Of course I did this very last minute (the day of) and I called around. Sue was able to get me in that evening for a 2 hour "Raindrop Therapy" massage. Her space is a charming little cottage off of the main strip in Mendocino. Both she and her space are absolutely delightful! Before we began we discussed my needs, likes, dislikes, what's going on in my life, etc. This helps her get a feel for me and what my body may need. Once the massage began, we talked a bit about oils and what some of them were doing for my body. She was very generous with the essential oils (which I love) and her time to really work on my body. The combination of her knowledge, firm touch understanding of a bodies needs, oils, warm towels and stones... so wonderful. The massage ended with a salt scrub on my feet, and the ringing of Tibetan singing bowls being chimed under the bed. When I came out of the room I was greeted with a delightful cup of herbal tea. I actually smelled a bit like a wonderful floral/herbal tea when I left. I let the oils stay on my skin all night so that they could work their "magic". I live down in Marin but am already thinking about planning another overnight visit to Mendocino just so I can get another one of these amazing massages.

I got a hot stones massage from Sue- it was really lovely, but more importantly- Sue herself is so…read morelovely! Cannot recommend enough. Next time I am able to go up to Mendocino will definitely seek Sue out again!

Then had audacity to blame me. Even after offering to take some $ off for the driving time that was completely Nadja's fault. Basically unprofessional, unreliable, and a bad experience on the whole. Also requested them to quit texting me which wasn't respected so ended up blocking. And then, if that wasn't enough boundary crossing they left a voicemail so had to block phone calls as well. I can't speak to the quality or skills of the massage - especially if you can walk into their office rather than schedule a home visit. But at minimum this person was unable to find an address that is clearly on every driving direction app and had trouble respecting boundaries when asked to do so.

I love Ayurvedic massage and the session I had today as a new patient was just what I needed. I…read morehave had hundreds of massages from dozens of practitioners and I would rate Nicole in the top 5% of all I have experienced. The office is easy to access and parking was available (although during weekends and tourist season it might be a good idea to allow 15 min to park before your appointment). Inside the waiting room was pleasant, the bathroom was clean and the treatment room smelled good (mild - not too strong) and had nice music. I arrived on time and Nicole was ready. She greeted me and invited me into a very cozy treatment room. After a short conversation (3 or 4 questions) about medical history, what brought me in and style preferences, she invited me to get on the table. Nicole started gently, probing and assessing to see what her training and my requests together suggested would be most helpful. From the first touch it was obvious that Nicole is a compassionate, sensitive, confident, experienced and well-trained massage therapist. The whole massage was relaxing and clearly theraputic. After the massage we discussed herbal supplements that might support my healing and I purchased a jar of Chawanprash. My personal reason for going in was to help recover from a serious UTI/kidney infection and get some support for side-effects from antibiotics (e.g. muscle aches, edema, constipation). Nicole knew exactly how to work with my body to ease into releasing the discomfort. She did a fabulous job of listening to my breath and following my body's clues about when to go deeper, linger longer or move on. As I walked out I noticed several things: 1. I could feel my deep muscle aches were gone. 2. I could see that there was a reduction of edema. 3. I knew already that I would be going back soon. BOTTOM LINE: If you want a truly therapeutic massage in Mendocino, you will be doing yourself a favor to go see Nicole.

The hot tub is incredible, but it is co-ed nude, which I don't mind, but be aware before you go (the owners do tell you that in advance). The massage was the crown jewel. Jacqueline (I'm unsure of how to spell her name) was INCREDIBLE. I love how she started off the massage letting me smell all of the essential oils she was going to use, and then her hands are MAGIC. She was the first therapist who told me that my left trap was tighter than my right and to sleep more on my right side, and paid so much attention to all the places I needed extra care instead of just doing the regular fare.
