She looks at the whole picture and has not only helped reduce my pain, but helped me evaluate how I got injured in the first place. I understand now that how I walk, how I sit, my posture, as well as areas that are weak in my back have actually all contributed to my workplace injury (as well as the repetitive motion). She really cares about overall wellness. Feeling better than ever!

Alexis is a great Massage Therapist! I followed her from her former Massage place to her own new…read morebusiness. I always trust Alexis because of her rich knowledge and accreditations. I am very active in sport and have injured myself quite a few times. And each time, Alexis always managed to figure out the issues and showed me the right way to recovery, in addition to relieving the knots, clogged, and anything else in between I caused to myself and my muscles. She also gives the best facial and head massage. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone who truly wants to heal and be better at knowing how to take care of your body. I will follow her wherever she goes because she works the magic!

She can help you out in so many ways!

To say Kyeanna is THE BEST would be an understatement. As a lifelong dancer and performer, I have…read morebecome pretty accustomed to the usual body aches and pains. However, I recently returned to performing after a year and a half off and I was an absolute WRECK. My body was in shambles and I was experiencing pain like never before. I was referred to Kyeanna by a mutual friend and desperately reached out! She immediately responded and I could already tell that I was in the best hands possible! A few days later, I had my first massage with Kyeanna at her studio inside of a gorgeous chiropractic office in Seal Beach. Her space is immaculately clean and incredibly comfortable. Her sweet and calm demeanor will instantly put you at ease. Before getting started, we chatted about what was going on and where I was experiencing pain. Kyeanna is SO knowledgeable about the body and she was incredibly gracious in taking the time to explain to me what was going on! Then she got to work and OH MY GOODNESS, her massage was truly life changing. She did a lot of focus work on my legs which is where the bulk of my pain was. She used many different techniques and tactics including stretching which almost instantly brought me an incredible amount of relief! I have since returned twice and let me tell you, with every massage, I feel even more incredible! She is truly such a wealth of knowledge and truly listens so what you need during every massage! Do not hesitate to book a massage with her! Even if you are not in extreme pain, she does everything from deep focus work to relaxation! I would give her 100 stars if that was an option!

I injured my calf about 3 weeks ago and was in a significant amount of pain from complete muscle tension. Kyeanna not only fit me into her crazy schedule, she educated me about my injury and the proper steps to take to heal it. Not to mention, the massage is WONDERFUL. The perfect amount of pressure and release for my poor calf muscle. She has provided exercises and stretches to help elevate the tightness around the muscle and is always an open book of communication if you ever have questions for her. KYEANNA IS THE ONE! You MUST go to her!

One of the things I hate about getting older is hearing the "Snap! Crackle! Pop!" in the morning…read morelong before the milk hits the Rice Krispies! The sounds my joints make these days are more appropriately found in a haunted house than emanating from my skeletal system. My better half was kind enough to buy a Groupon for a 90 Minute Hot Stone Massage and booked it at 3:30 p.m. on a Thursday. I arrived basically on time, but what none of the previous reviews mention is the business is in the back of a martial arts studio ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restoring-balance-massage-and-wellness-lake-forest-2?select=F5k39c4pWfPVU_tYIWjd7Q ) which shares the same suite number. This caused some confusion and I even questioned if I was in the right center ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restoring-balance-massage-and-wellness-lake-forest-2?select=0ozLj5lIAcQEe80lAIf55g ) before calling and being informed the business ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restoring-balance-massage-and-wellness-lake-forest-2?select=YbPxSCogI-U_2zHTwZCSjw ) is on the backside of the building. The business is conducted out of a room ( https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/restoring-balance-massage-and-wellness-lake-forest-2?select=Mwl4YbNZmI0zdtexnnjkng ) in the back of the martial art studio. Once my appointment and Groupon were confirmed, I was handed the usual paperwork to fill out and I believe there was a general waiver to sign as well. With the paperwork completed, I was given a few moments of privacy to unclothe and get under the sheets on the table. The massage starts with oil and hot stones being applied to the arms. The heat loosens the muscles which probably makes it easier to apply pressure during the massage. The massage continues on the legs and the masseuse definitely gets deep into the muscle and tissue. The last step before turning over is having the stones on my back (on top of a sheet) for a few minutes. Once I was turned over the massage ends with the shoulders, neck and skull getting a good workout. The masseuse is professional and not very chatty, so if you are looking for some upbeat and talkative masseuse, you should probably look elsewhere. For me, I care about the amount time spent on the massage and if my body feels better when the massage is over. Both of these criteria were met, so I was a pleased with my experience. I thought the music choice was a bit unusual (instrumental piano music), but I actually like the change up from the normal "wave" music. As you can see by the picture of the room, there are no bells and whistles to be found here. If you are looking for a day spa experience, you should probably make an appointment with Burke Williams, all you are getting here is a great massage. Unfortunately for me, I wasn't able to bask in the euphoria of a massage well given because one of my co-workers decided to not stay home from work and contaminated most of the office (including yours truly) with one of the nasty viruses that is rampaging through California this winter. Rohlinism: "Sharing is caring" doesn't apply to viruses! Here is a hint for everyone: if you are sick, stay the hell home! I guess the real winner in all this is the masseuse, because the virus has retied all the knots she had unraveled during our session, so I guess I will be needing a return visit in the future!

What a treat to get a massage with Mary! I've been feeling tons of stress and anxiety lately and a…read morevisit to Mary really helped me decompress and relax. It was exactly what I needed. The pressure was perfect and unlike other massage places where even though you tell them where it's hurting, they just go ahead and still do a typical "canned" massage routine, Mary really listens to your needs. She has so much experience with sports injuries and helping people heal and her knowledge of anatomy really makes a huge difference! The essential oils also are a great added bonus. I'm a huge fan myself, so it's nice to see multiple modalities being incorporated into the treatments. Her massage room and the center in general are very clean and tidy. Cute decor throughout - all promoting the feelings of "ahhhhh" and melty relaxation. Yay! Will definitely be back for more. If you're looking for the perfect massage therapist, look no further!
