She takes the time to go over your needs and really listens to what your body is telling you. Every session with Lyssa leaves me feeling relaxed, refreshed, and so much better than when I walked in.

Review #840 2025-012…read more I was rear ended in 11/2024 before Thanksgiving & went to P/T when my therapist suggested acupuncture &/or massage therapy to advance my recovery: right shoulder, neck, & back. I tried massage once more than a decade ago, but I have personal space issues besides being very ticklish. I searched awhile trying to find the "right" type of massage therapy, & came upon Gettys Muscle Therapy. I wasn't able speak with Lyssa because she's an independent contractor at Amie House, but she did reply by text with enough info that I felt comfortable to schedule an appointment 1-month out. She's busy either because of her limited schedule: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (M, T, Th), 8:00 AM - 3:30 PM (W, F) or she's THAT good. Established in 2010, Lyssa is a board-certified CA massage therapist providing therapy for rehabilitative care (not like the spa-associated massages?) at Amie House, a reimagined holistic center of independent wellness professionals. The 1st appointment is 90-mins.: 30 for pre/post assessment based on your intake/application form + 60 for massage. A detailed intake form ensures a full massage session, other it'll be shorten to clarify your needs/goals; thereafter, sessions are 30, 60, 90 mins. with Pay Later option of 4 installments (not sure if there's surcharges for this payment plan). Lyssa is thorough with asking questions that will assist her in your treatment, & discusses post-treatment observations & changes between appointments to guide her approach for a more impactful session. She's methodical in working on & around the tender areas, stretching & maneuvering for better range/flexibility. Her technique is different from another masseuse who uses more & constant pressure. At Gettys Muscle Therapy, treatment shouldn't be "no pain, no gain" instead it's detailed pressure with some discomfort of a "good sore." Followed by consistent homework on post assessment tips to maintain the progress made. Due to the cold weather, any minute progress made with PT & massage therapy is 1-step forward, 10-steps back; now weather is slightly warmer, & have increased the PT intensity & additional HW (from 1 set daily to 3 sets) & infrequent massage therapy, I've regained a lot of mobility & working on the back & building strength. On my 2nd session, Lyssa suggested I come in earlier to supplement with Dry Float Therapy, aka Zero Gravity Therapy. It's meant to be a relaxing experience that simulates weightlessness without getting wet. It involves lying on a special floatation bed that uses a dry membrane & is designed to minimize outside senses & feelings to help relieve stress & physical pain. However, this wasn't for me... triggering claustrophobia, anxiety, & nausea that remained with me for the whole day into the next day. I was barely in the bed (less than a min.?)... lying flat, which I'm incapable of doing (need to be raised a few degrees upward), & it felt tight like you're in a coffin but more snug. After getting my bearings, my massage wasn't therapeutic with my focus on breathing through the normally tolerable discomfort & trying not to get sick on the bed. This complementary add-on is $35 at a 30% discount for 30-mins. & $80 regular price for 60-mins. I'm not consistent with her post assessment tips (HW), but these complementary massage sessions along with PT has helped in my recovery. If you're looking for clinical massage therapy, look no further than Gettys Muscle Therapy. Keep in mind that it's challenging to secure short-term appointments because she is THAT good.

For the past 2 months, I have been very uncomfortable and swollen following Diep flap surgery, a…read morebreast cancer surgery, which involves surgery in both abdomen and breast areas. I also had lymph nodes removed and my surgeon recommended lymphatic drainage massage. LeahMay was my massage therapist and she was amazing. Super gentle, and she explained exactly what she was doing and how things were flowing as we went along. She had me breathe through the areas and were "stuck" and I could feel the lymphatic drainage happening! The experience left me so happy and relieved that when it was over, I cried a little and gave LeahMay a giant hug. This woman is not only gentle and kind, but truly knows her stuff! Afterwards, I met Alex, the owner, who was also incredibly sweet and kind. These people obviously care and love what they do. You will be in good hands, (pun intended! ) if you visit them! I left Lympha Villa feeling better than I have since before surgery. For the first time in over 2 months, I was able to bend over and tie my shoe! Sounds small, but it truly felt miraculous! I can't wait to go back for more sessions!

I've never had a massage before and was looking forward to a relaxing experience. I filled out the proper forms and even said I wanted a massage to ease my stress and anxiety. Jill made sure that experience did not happen. First she learned that we had a mutual acquaintance. I don't know Jill at all. But man, did she try to pry more and more info out of me to gossip about my friend. I even told her I didn't want to do that. But she wanted to keep prying. Then! She started telling me things about my friend I didn't want to know. As she was massaging me she said she found a lump on my back and insinuated that it could be cancer and that it's common. Then proceeded to tell me all about how horrible cancer is. Bye bye relaxing time. I got so stressed by the whole thing I started freaking out about cancer. Had to schedule an appointment with my doctor who couldn't see me in two weeks. Two weeks filled with stress. Finally see my doctor "there's no bump and I have no idea what she's talking about". My doctor also said masseuses or "massage therapists" are NOT doctors though they LOVE to give unsolicited medical advice. The whole experience really sucked and I want my gifters money back. What a horrible experience when all I wanted was a massage. Hope Jill can get her act cleaned up.

I'm also someone who loves a massage that 'hurts so good,' and Johnny is great about listening and adjusting the pressure to exactly what I want and need. He really knows his stuff, pays attention to what's going on with your body, and tailors every session accordingly. I can't recommend him enough. I'll be going to Johnny for a long time!

I explained that I couldn't come later due to evening conflicts so they cancelled my appointment. Super disappointed in the lack of professionalism, especially since I booked here on the recommendation of my acupuncturist who works in the same space. Time management is important as is my time. I'm now left without a much needed massage at the last minute after having planned out my typically busy evening. The lack of respect shown for my time vs their time is something that I can't look past in a business.

I have been seeing her for reiki and deep tissue massage since September 2017. When I first met Irma, I couldn't have imagined how much she would have a positive effect on my life. Irma is a trustworthy person with a kind heart and warm spirit. She uses eastern and western therapeutic knowledge to help her clients function holistically. She gets to know you as a person to help address your physical ailments and, oftentimes, the underlying emotional and spiritual causes of those ailments. She genuinely cares about her clients. And, Irma has a healing touch. The first time Irma performed reiki on me, it was enlightening and transformative. I had never experienced reiki before. As I lay on the massage bed, I felt myself "opening" up, if that makes sense. There was an immediate, natural response from my body to Irma's hands and energy. My body moved upward, "opening" up my chakras. At the end of that first session, my mind and body felt clearer. I could breathe easier and walk straighter. It literally felt like a load was lifted. Since then, I have continued to see Irma, whom I now consider a friend. During our session, we talk extensively before proceeding with reiki healing or massage therapy. After our session, I feel invigorated and centered. My mind, body, and spirit are happy. Whether you're experiencing simple back pain or looking for holistic healing, Irma is the person to trust. She'll help you feel better, inside and out.
