Best massage therapist in Seattle!…read more If you want someone who knows how your body works and can explain it to you, while making your feel comfortable throughout the whole process, go to Joe. Best body work.

I received my first massage from Joe today. I felt comfortable around him right away, which helped…read moreme to relax. One thing that I definitely noticed is that there was very little chit chat during the massage. Just a little brief chit chat here and there. I appreciated that not only because Joe wasn't too chatty (he and I did chat a little bit here and there, though, which was nice), but because I have received massage from over 70 massage therapists in the Seattle area over the past 20 years, and there are very few therapists that I feel comfortable enough with during the FIRST session to not feel at all compelled to chat with the therapist quite a bit during my massage. I usually want to know who is massaging me! I get curious about the person!! Haha. I can honestly say I've never received a massage quite like the massage that I received today from Joe. I enjoyed some interesting stretches, some neck work that felt very needed, and some great mid-to-low-back bodywork. Part of my Deep Lomi Style massage was done with me positioned side-lying - my favorite position in which to receive massage. I had checked in advance with Joe via e-mail about his safety procedures, and they're sound. He was able to leave the window open (at my request) during my massage, and he had an air purifier going also. He wore a mask for the entire duration of the intake, the massage, and the check-out. The music was soft, not too loud or intrusive, and it provided a lovely background noise. The lighting was perfect for me, I prefer the lighting to be slightly darker in the massage room since it's more relaxing for me that way. Joe checked in about the level of pressure, and he was very open and responsive to my feedback - which he strongly encouraged me to give - about level of pressure, position of my body and head on the table, preference for bolstering, any areas to avoid or go lightly on, type of oil used, and anything else that made the massage experience truly special. I felt that Joe went above and beyond to make sure that I felt cared for and attended to. Usually when I review a massage therapist here on yelp, I explain that I graduated from Port Townsend School of Massage in 2016 - however, I have never practiced massage professionally, since my life ended up going in a different direction at that time. So, I know a bit more about massage therapy than someone who doesn't have this particular educational background. I enjoyed my massage with Touch Factor Massage and Bodywork, I would receive massage from Joe again, and I would highly recommend this business to anyone who wants a truly unique and special massage experience.

Pre-COVID, I used to be a regular every-two-week massage client, but I had let many months lapse and finally decided to go see Tayler at Level Up Massage. First off, working in health care, I am very observant of COVID precautions and practices and Tayler made me feel very safe. Secondly, I was so impressed with his wide range of massage techniques. He used a combination of cupping, Gua Sha, and deep tissue techniques for my 90-minute massage, and made me feel like a whole new person. I've had some massages that felt good during the session but made little impact to my overall mobility and pain levels. Tayler didn't shy away from firm pressure and hard-to-reach muscles that gave me amazing relief and improved mobility for days afterwards. He will also make sure you have some tips for self-care so that you can give yourself relief at home between sessions. Lastly, for payment, I was able to use my FSA, which was great. I highly recommend Tayler and Level Up Massage!

This is a repost of a review that I wrote last year, with a few edits for updates. The reason for…read morethe repost is that this business has recently changed its name, so I wanted to help by leaving my review under the new business name: I received 4 massages from Joe last year (2021). I felt comfortable around him right away, which helped me to relax. One thing that I definitely noticed is that there was very little chit chat during the first massage.

After the massages I felt very relaxed, my muscles felt stretched out, and I had an overall feeling of wellbeing. The Magnolia facility is very nicely laid out.

Unfortunately she moved so I've been looking for a really quality massage. I think I've found the therapist and facility.

You can tell he has a special gift and you are cheating yourself if you do not try this out, you will never want to go back to a chain salon to get an average massage.

I have a couple recalcitrant pain areas (some hip arthritis, back pain, and scar tissue from a bad elbow break) and although they are not completely gone, Jeff dug in deep, so to speak, to address the areas with deep massage and stretching. Plus he really believes in empowering clients to work on themselves, and taught me how to do specific stretches and rolling maneuvers with various balls, rollers, and strap so that I could continue the work at home. We encouraged me to make videos of many of these with my phone so that I could remember them, and they have been very helpful. I am very active with running, hiking, and biking, so it is great to know more about how my musculoskeletal system and how to keep it as healthy as possible. Jeff is also very personable and fun to chat with, and you can really feel his commitment and belief in the Soma work, which has clearly helped him a lot too, since he is very active as a rock climber, biker, runner, etc. This guy is the real deal!

I'd been carrying heavy loads and traveling and swung one giant suitcase too many onto the conveyor belt which caused extreme pain and stiffness. I woke up one morning unable to move my arm above my head and thats when I went to Deep River Bodyworks. I actually had gone to see other people before, but they didn't really help solve the root of my pain. One session, advice on stretches and I was feeling brand new. The second time I went to see him, today actually, I was experiencing pain in my right hand, right foot (sole) and lower back. I discussed what problems I had, what my past few months were like and 1.5 hours later, the pain is gone. Oh yeah, sure, at first it was intense but over time, it started to feel like stretching and less sore. I walked out without any pain in my right foot, with my hands feeling loss and more importantly, with my lower back feeling actual relief. Twice he's listened and actually worked on the trigger points that cause pain, not necessarily the area where I have pain. He's more than a massage therapist!
