We started the massage lesson with 4 other couples and it was so much fun! We took turns learning how to properly massage one another through her guidance an expertise. She made sure to show modified movements and different ways to apply pressure to make sure everyone was getting the best out of their session. The mood was light and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Such a great idea for an out of the norm date night! Looking forward to my upcoming massage with Megan! Update: I had the pleasure of enjoying a massage with Megan over the weekend. It was, without a doubt, the best massage I have ever received!!! Megan is very communicative and makes sure that you are enjoying your massage to the fullest. The pressure and the flow of the massage was amazing. I was concerned for myself for the drive home because I was a little too relaxed post massage!

Amy is an incredible healer and space holder. I've been working with her on a (mostly) weekly…read morebasis, and she's really shifted some major blocks for me and brought me in touch with strong emotions I wasn't aware of in my body. Her "somatic experiencing" works seems simple: light touch and deep nurturing connection, but it goes extremely deep. In the first few sessions, I mostly rested in connection and safety. Thereafter, though, arose some really intense healing and emotional/traumatic release -- once my body felt safe with her, I guess. I was amazed in her capacity to work with and hold the range of experiences moving through my being. I really feel a strong maternal presence holding me, meeting deep attachment needs I didn't know that I had. Critically, I feel very safe with Amy, and really trust her to handle what arises. I have done talk therapy for years. And consider myself quite in touch with my body (yoga teacher certified, etc.). Yet Amy's healing presence is doing deep work in a uniquely potent, efficient, and in-the-moment manner. Thank you!

I've been seeing Amy for just over two years.

She is so kind, generous, caring and supportive.  Her approach is not formulaic; instead, she has such a broad and deep knowledge of different approaches,  techniques and supporting materials that she can use in the moment to respond with great care and thoughtfulness to however I show up that day.  Working with her has genuinely changed the way I move through my life, and I'm deeply grateful for the steadiness and compassion she brings to every session.

Terrible experience for my wife. She booked a massage through ClassPass, and the business contacted…read moreher beforehand asking if she could come earlier. She agreed and changed her schedule to accommodate them. When she arrived, she was told the therapist would be male. She politely explained that she was not comfortable receiving a massage from an unfamiliar male therapist and asked whether there was any alternative. The manager was extremely dismissive and rude and made essentially no effort to find a reasonable solution. What bothered us most was not simply the ClassPass policy--it was the way my wife was treated when she expressed a very personal and reasonable boundary. Instead of showing understanding, the manager repeatedly blamed ClassPass and made her feel like she was the problem. For a business offering such a personal service, professionalism, empathy, and respect for a client's comfort should be basic expectations. Based on how this was handled, I cannot recommend this place.

This was my first visit to Amaka's and I had a 10am appointment this morning with Quavis. I arrived…read moreat 9:50am to be greeted by no one at the front desk. I could hear a man in the back talking on the phone and I first thought that was my stylist, so I said "hello...hello" but no response. He continues to talk on the phone. So, I looked around the lobby for a minute and then took a seat. I called Quavis at 9:55 to let him know I was at the salon. He said he was on his way and was running late. So, I sat there for a few more minutes and a young lady arrived (another stylist) and she asked if I was being helped and I told her that I was waiting on Quavis and I called him and he stated that he was running late. She nodded her head up and down and reiterated that she wanted to make sure I had been helped. I thanked her and after a few more minutes (10:13am to be exact), I called Quavis back and asked how much longer would he be because I didn't know if I needed to reschedule. He said that was up to me but he was coming up the stairs. When he got to the salon, he grumbled "good morning I'll be with you shortly" (or in a minute...or something like that). At that point, I was not feeling this appointment! So, after pondering for a moment, I walked towards the back where he went and called his name (because I was going to cancel the appointment). He didn't answer, so I went back out front and removed my name from the sign in sheet. When he came back out to the lobby, I told him I'd need to cancel or reschedule because we were already behind schedule. He looked me up and down and said "well if that's what you want to do...". I asked him if he was ok this morning. He said yes. I said that I didn't get an apology or anything and told him I'd removed my name from the sign in sheet. I told him to have a good day and left. I was very disappointed because I was expecting so much more from this salon. I'm sure the owner would be unhappy to know that this is how one of her stylists treats new customers.

Maybe their work is outstanding, we wouldn't know, but the customer service and communication is substandard, as such we'll find another salon.
