We went to this location years ago (2018-2019) and liked it so much we kept going back even though…read moreit was a bit far from us. Unfortunately, the pandemic came along and we skipped massages for quite a long time. We recently moved nearby and decided to give it a try again and they did not disappoint! We booked a couples massage for 90 minutes with Frank and Mary. Neither of us can remember having massages that good. They spent the time focused on the areas we requested, with the pressure we requested, and we both left feeling so much better! Appointment was easy to book on the website. They sent reminders for the appointment and confirmed booking preferences before the appointment (gender of masseuse, single or shared room). As a side note- there are now signs in every room not to touch the masseuse and to basically be appropriate in their business. Not sure what people are thinking these last few years (though I can obviously guess by the signs), but no one goes to work to be assaulted so keep your hands TO yourself but OFF yourself. These folks are amazing! Give them some respect so they can do their work!

Also, place seemed pretty clean and sanitary. For context, I like a really deep tissue massage. The average person might find what I enjoy to be uncomfortable. Like a jackhammer in my back would be good lol. I had John as my massage therapist, and he was absolutely amazing! Didn't take any shortcuts and really got into the muscle tissue. Elbows and all of that! Felt awesome. I was so relaxed. I will definitely be coming back to him. I didn't completely undress, although I'm sure you could. I really only do that at high end spas. I was in shorts and a cami and It was comfortable. He asked about the pressure. I told him hard and he obliged. Kept consistent pressure the whole massage. Heads up: they do request a $20 tip ahead of the massage. While I recognize this is untraditional, I totally get It, given how COVID must have affected business. I hope people start cutting small businesses some slack! Anyway, if you are looking for an insanely deep tissue massage without the frills, definitely come here!

Her name is Ligia (pronounced Leah) and she proceeded to provide maximum relaxation via a deep tissue/Swedish combo massage. Listen, I actually went to sleep and had to be awakened! I was not ready to go! The best way to describe her hands, was like a body facial application! Her hands were buttery soft but woah the pressure was spot on!! It felt like I was floating hence I went to sleep! Towards the end, face up was time spent on my scalp, face and Decollete...who knew I needed that soooo bad! It was heavenly!! Turns out she's a trained esthetician which made sense that she was so smooth with the facial massage. I am so relaxed and legit had to sit for 15 minutes to gather energy to drive home. After taking care of elderly parents for 2 weeks (ripping and running), this 90 minute massage was needed and deserved! I'm thrilled for E&S and Iris! She has an all star team and clients will be satisfied with any of her team members! Book Leah immediately!!!

Penny is A M A Z I N G!…read more I have her come out to my house weekly as part of my own little wellness program, which is to say, I'm old and I needed to find an excuse to get a massage every week. I'm trying to take care of my body now that is out of warranty and breaking down. She is one part masseuse and one part detective. It's uncanny how even if I don't tell her which part of my back is sore, she can find that one small muscle that is making all of the other muscles tense up around it. I've had massages at the mall where the therapists basically take you through their "one size fits all" routine no matter what area you want them to focus on - they use blunt force and do everything quick and aggressive. Penny is purposed and methodical in her assessment (her fingers are her instruments doing the assessment). She probes gently as she walks her fingers up and down your back to find that "angry" muscle and give it some healing. If it doesn't want to comply, she delivers power, primarily through her elbows, but doesn't pull the elbow out just for the sake of doing it - it's always with a purpose and that purpose to help your back find peace. There have been times when I've walked in with such tight pain in my neck or shoulder and I can't get a full range of motion in my neck or my arm. But after she's worked on my tight neck for example, it's liked someone greased the gears inside of my neck because my neck can swivel 90 degrees in either direction without any effort, whereas before it was full of tension. Speaking of grease, she does not use an abundance of lotion so you don't feel like a greased up pig at the end. Her prices are very reasonable, especially since she comes out to you!
