It was my first experience! First time I ever tried aqua stretch ! After the treatment, I felt a great change in range of motion and an overall feeling of relief. I am looking forward to my next session, and I encourage you to give margoa your body and your mind for an uplifting experience. read more

What a great experience I had with Margoa! Got the combo session as a birthday gift and it really felt like something different. I am suffering from all the injuries and the recent surgery that made my upper body stiff and lost range of motion. After only one session of autumn was able to make a big improvement in range of motion for my joints and made my injuries and surgery scar tissue feel much better. I would definitely recommend if you have any issues like that Let Rotem do his magic read more

Rotem is great. His talent is truly special. I've had two sessions, both were combined session of aqua stretch/adjustment work (which is amazing in the water) and the other half of the session is watsu... which includes going to a place of deep relaxation and meditation in the water... energy healing, and sound bath. Every session is a little different and customized to what your body and spirit needs at that time. Highly recommend! read more

These treatments really help increase the mobility in my neck, even more than traditional chiropractic and the results are long-lasting. I thoroughly enjoy each session and feel great afterward. read more

My rheumatologist suggested I do water therapy to help alleviate nerve pain stemming from spinal compression. (I have rheumatoid arthritis and lupus and spend a lot of time in bed.) I had positive experiences with watsu in the past, and when I did online research, I found that Rotem at Margoa Aquatic Bodywork uses several different modalities including watsu and aqua stretch. Seeing a practitioner with extensive training in different types of bodywork seemed most likely to bring results, so I called and made an appointment with Rotem. On the phone and in our first appointment, Rotem asked detailed questions about my condition and current symptoms and explained about the work he does. When we got in the pool, it was immediately clear that he is an experienced professional who knows exactly what he is doing. During the first half of the session, I was introduced to aqua stretch - every element of the bodywork was specifically tailored to be therapeutic to my body's needs and to work within my range of motion. Throughout the aqua stretch, Rotem was in constant communication with me to get feedback and to check for any physical pain or discomfort I might have. Aqua stretch addresses every area of the body from your toes all the way up to your neck to identify potential issues or problem areas. It was the most thorough approach to physical therapy I've experienced. The second half of the session was about total relaxation and a state of deep meditation for me. Rotem explained what we'd be doing in advance, so I was able simply to close my eyes and luxuriate in the experience! It was an incredible combination of water massage, energy work, and sound therapy. I was amazed by the freedom of movement and incredible stretching I experienced due to Rotem's specialized technique in the buoyancy of the warm water. The day after my second session with Rotem, I realized that the nerve pain caused by spinal compression was gone! His water bodywork had achieved what restorative yoga poses and chiropractic treatment hadn't been able to do. I am spacing out my visits now to maintain the positive effects of the healing work. Margoa is not just about relaxation and feeling good - it is true healing work! Thank you, Rotem. read more

I'm so glad that I found Rotem (in Los Angeles) I had been looking for a watsu or water type therapy and he is wonderful. He is able to relax the body and work out the tension. First visit - I realized how much emotional tension I was holding in my muscles. When he released it - I both laughed and cried. And I felt very "zen" afterwards. I definitely recommend a session with him. read more

Rotem made this experience wonderful! He explained the whole process before we got in the water, always made sure I was comfortable, and continuously checked on me throughout the session. After an injury when I was younger, I lost a lot of range of motion. Rotem was able to stretch and release tension in my body and I was able to move comfortably and had a huge relief of my chronic pain. I definitely recommend a stretching session and will be booking another one soon! read more

** Love the new addition of the Aqua Stretch ** :) Not only this is the best relaxation in Las Vegas, it's also the only 95 degree PRIVATE pool to get these kind of treatments... The price is very reasonable for the 75-90 minutes sessions. I became a regular client and I go for my session every other week :) ******************************************************************************************************************* After long exhausting weeks (physically & mentally) I've decided to take a one hour break and relate to my inner me. Trying to find the best therapy for me- I've done a research. I was looking for a therapy that could combine muscle stretching & massage along with dealing my own emotions.. finding my Zen. After reading about Watsu and searching therapy on Yelp- I've found Margoa relaxation and it was right here, in Las Vegas, NV ! The therapy was AMAZING.. I am still speechless !!!! The warm water relaxed my muscles... that was deep relaxation which encouraged the release of my daily stress. It was truly graceful experience! I felt SAFE & relaxed as if I remembered from 'long ago'.. Back then, in the womb. I truly recommend this unique & beautiful experience! Thank you Margoa relaxation LV! Bless ya! Can't wait to our next session! read more

See all

Rotem is so kind and professional. I've gone to physical therapy before but never something like this that incorporated hot water and a relaxing immersive environment. It was like a combination of message and PT. I liked the music that played throughout the session. It was also interesting getting a sense of my body and whatever part of it needed attention by moving against the water resistance. Super cool! To be honest, when I first saw this on FB I was a little worried by the idea of going to a strangers house and getting in their pool! But, as I said, Rotem is so kind an professional and is really focused on helping you address whatever tension or pain you're feeling. Great experience! read more

I had my second session yesterday with Rotem in his wonderful pool. OMG!!!! It was so incredible. He combined many different aquatic therapy techniques with me. Each was so skillful, done with such attention and care. I've been having some problems with my hips, knees, back and neck. And every single issue was made to feel 1000 times better. I feel like a new woman. I've had many different types of therapies, massage amd watsu and Rotem is the tops! You must try a session with him! More than 2 years later, I now see Rotem every week. Some are short sessions, aqua stretch only and every 2nd or 3rd week I schedule with him for the full Margoa session. He keeps getting better and better! Without his treatments I would've needed a hip replacement by now. Highest Recommendation!!! read more

I am pregnant and recently discovered Watsu and Aqua Stretching in the hands of Rotem. I can not be more grateful. He is a beautiful human being and professional, helping so much to release many physical and emotional blocks from the first session. Also, sharing this with my baby, feels like it is increasing our connection to another level. Wonderful experience. 100% recommended! read more

I have had several opportunities to receive treatment from Rotem, and the time I have spent with him has given me more mobility than I have had in years. I leave there at peace in mind and body. He is knowledgeable practitioner and, what's more, he is a gifted healer. read more

Wow! That about sums it up. There really aren't words to describe how amazing this water therapy is. It truly is the best "massage" I've ever had. But it's so much more than a massage. It's a complete body realignment. You know how after you leave a message you feel really good and relaxed but a short while after you feel like you need several more sessions to really release all the tension in your body? Well after this one session I felt like all the spots had released and my body was back in alignment. The weightlessness of the water allows your body to easily release. Rotem was incredible. So, gentle and easy to work with. Made me feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. He's been doing it long enough that he really understands where your body and mind are at and how far he can go to give you the maximum benefit. Honestly, just try it, what do you have to lose and you have everything to gain. read more

I had an Hydrotherapy session for the first time some time ago and it was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. So relaxing, different and much better than any other therapy or relaxation experience I had in the past. My body was totally relaxed and pampered, my mind flew to a different world... I would definitely recommend it to everybody :) I also got one of the MARGOA's Hammock, they are totally awesome ! read more

Days Later-still thinking about this experience. Found myself away from home on my birthday in Las Vegas for the first time this year. While looking up non-gambling things to do, I found Margoa Aqua Therapy. The reviews dance around what this is but fail to really explain it. Now I know why~ it is really like nothing else I've found, and I've been to spas all over the world. Upon arrival we went over what the modalities included again and talked about expectations, health issues and how the session would progress. It was a good get-to-know you time that helped me relax. The pool was warm and comfortable and the surroundings homey and inviting, like being at a friend's house. Starting at my feet he worked out all my joints and muscles looking and feeling for the telltale releases. This "aqua stretch" part lasted roughly half an hour-? We took a break and let gravity re-introduce itself. I felt loose and energized. Then we started the second part of the session. I don't know what to call it. It isn't Watsu but something he has developed based on 15 years of experience. The pool was completely shaded at the time. At this point I feel we had established some mutual trust and I was able to submit, be quiet (hard for me) and let him lead the therapy. *In retrospect I think I had such a great result because of this. Seriously, just trust him; he is a professional and incredibly adept and intuitive at what he does. My ears were submerged and for the next- I have no idea how long- I was floating on my back with my eyes closed. Sight was eclipsed, sound was muffled. I could occasionally hear a distant plane, the pool motor or a heartbeat; I'm not sure whose. Physically, during this portion- he wound me serpentine like through the pool putting me in various inscrutable poses I wouldn't have been able to accomplish on land. Stretching and gliding, a delightful frisson of bubbles and a targeted percussion of waves rose up against my back occasionally. It was fun to concentrate on the bubbles and track their progress from my back along my sides and eventually up to the surface. My arm got a bit cold toward the end but it was an interesting juxtaposition. Rotem remained wordless, guiding me expertly and intuitively through this womb like state. Kneading and pulling me, he is stronger than his slight frame suggests. As we wrapped up the session he touched my forehead and then my heart. Unexpectedly my carefully composed, affable demeanor dissolved in the ripples of the warm pristine pool. Some unseen key unlocked a door I keep tightly shut. Interesting what happens when you're completely relaxed, the walls just come down. I was unprepared. I hadn't been this unguarded and in years. When we finished Rotem "grounded me" by putting me back in touch with the ground and edge of the pool. This was very helpful while I got my head back on straight and mustered the courage to open my eyes. He clued in quickly that something had changed and spent as much time as he could with me before the next client arrived. I would have liked to stay longer to get to know this wonderful human being with the magical touch but he is a popular fellow! A very powerful therapy on so many levels, I cannot recommend enough! I plan to find him each year on my birthday from now on~ read more

If you're pregnant, in pain, or both, go see Rotem! His aquastretch sessions helped me tremendously and honestly I believe aquastretch was one of the best things I did for myself and baby during pregnancy. Not only to help with my aching pregnant body, but also to facilitate a good position for baby during labor. It kept me pain free, whereas in my previous pregnancy I could hardly walk. Rotem is very kind and friendly, and you can tell he's truly passionate about what he does. He takes his time, and works on every detail. My body never felt better! I would 100% recommend him and his services. It's worth it! read more

Everyone should experience what Margoa Relaxation has to offer. This form of aquatic bodywork is amazing! As the receiver, you float supported while the therapist takes you through gentle stretches and movement. Your mind lets go of all the stress and you effortlessly move in space. It's like having yoga done to you during a massage in a warm pool. Even very subtle movement can give you a profound perception in the water. As an aquatic therapist, I go out of my way to seek out others like Rotem, to see where and how they practice and to feel their unique approach to the work we do. Margoa Relaxation was the highlight of my Nevada vacation. I'm just sorry he lives so far away from me, but every visit from now on will include a stop at his pool! read more

I've had several sessions with Rotem and would go all the time if I could. The aquastretch really helps my shoulder and hip tightness and the relaxation session is heavenly. read more

While planning my mini birthday vacation I searched for a Watsu practitioner in Las Vegas and found Margoa Relaxation. I had a Watsu treatment at Margoa Relaxation with Rotem. He is a patient, intuitive and nurturing therapist who individualized my session according to my needs, abilities, and limitations. The treatments are done at a private location in an outside, warm-water pool. I absolutely loved my experience and plan to return. read more

I had such an amazing experience with Rotem and his hydrotherapy. It is unlike anything I've ever experienced before. Being unfamiliar with this type of therapy, I was a bit apprehensive/nervous at first. Rotem was very understanding and told me everything I should expect from before. He eases you into the water until you're comfortable. The therapy itself is extremely calming and relaxing, as well as a great stretch and mobility work for your body. As a client, you have his complete attention and focus the entire time, and that personal attention is what makes his hydrotherapy unlike any other. I'll definitely be coming back! :) I highly suggest everyone to try his therapy and experience the amazing sensations for themselves! As a previous review also mentioned, his handmade hammocks are awesome! Way superior to any other hammock you would buy in a store, I've had countless naps on it, and I honestly get the best quality of sleep on them. And they're fully customizable which is totally cool :) read more

This treatment was exceptional - and as a person who has experimented with many different forms of body work, that's saying something! I really appreciated Rotem's kind approach and I trusted him to support my body. Without trusting that you are supported, you can't let go and simply enjoy being moved with ease and grace. I would highly recommend trying this experience! read more

Fantastic experience! I'd never even really heard of water therapy before, let alone taken part. I was extremely impressed and appreciative for the opportunity.. Imagine drifting into a world away from all of your cares or concerns, and finding a place where you're able to feel and absorb some of the most relaxing and healing energies you've ever encountered.. A very meditative, rejuvenating session, and I'm not exactly the type of person that usually gets into that kind of stuff.. But I took the advice of a good friend to try it out, and am beyond happy that I did! If anxiety or stress is something that you'd like to take a unique and really effective approach to dealing with and getting a better handle on, I'd put Margoa at the top of your list! Thanks again!! read more

Amazing therapy session with an amazing and very professional therapist ! Thank you so much Rotem ! I loved every minute !!

Rotem is a great guy and you will love this. It will adjust your body were needed and help your mind relax. It is super fun too!

That is some amazing bodywork!!!! I loved the combination of aquatic stretch and watsu, a perfect mix. Deep movement and muscle tension release and then followed by the beautiful relaxation that watsu provides. Rotem is exceptional at what he does. He is highly skilled, kind and caring and makes sure you are comfortable. A real gift to yourself and a wonderful healing modality. read more
