I have tried a lot of different massage places, and Angel Massage was one of (if not THE) best…read moremassage I've had. As an athlete, I am always asking for harder pressure and to work on problem areas, but most places do not deliver. At Angel Massage, James is very strong! I requested hard pressure and he did a fantastic job. The massage was still relaxing, and the calming music and massage oil scents were particularly inviting. The staff is super kind, and you feel very comfortable when you step through the door. I've tried some of the fancier spas in/outside of Gainesville, but none can massage as well as James at Angel!

Ashlie and Justin used to work at Hand & Stone and I was excited to start going to their new place…read morewhen they opened Nirvana. Justin is a gifted massage therapist and I always feel comfortable and relaxed with him. His communication is outstanding -- finding out what you need in advance and checking in quietly during the massage. He uses a variety of modalities to address any issues and adapts based on what you need at the time. He's done deep tissue work on le and also gentle work. I leave feeling relaxed and healed. He is intuitive and very skilled. The whole place is lovely -- very quiet, calming, cozy and also spotless. I love the decor, music and water sounds - I am relaxed the moment I'm on the table. It's very easy to zone out and feel miles away. Ashlie is also talented and provides facials and Japanese head spa treatments. She is such a joyful and sweet person, I love being around her. This is a wonderful place. Professional and caring team. I'm a regular!

Appreciate the cleanliness and the friendly atmosphere. Maybe we can give it another try someday.read more

I'm writing this review on behalf of my husband who has been to Ron twice now!…read more Previously, we previously went to Eric for our first few years at Compass Point. Eric moved away though and we needed to re-establish with someone which is when we found Ron! From the first few minutes getting acquainted and discussing the goals of massage, my husband and I knew we Ron was going to be awesome! I can't say enough wonderful things about his massage techniques, willingness to tailor massage to your individual needs, along with his continued compassionate nature to check-in for pressure and position comfort. He also has availability on the weekends and late afternoons/ evening which are HUGE perks for those who work traditional workdays. Pricing is more than reasonable for the services and quality he provides! If you are looking for a super massage therapist, please give him a try! I'm sure you will not be disappointed!

You're a life saver!! Highly recommend to anyone looking for relief in their life!!

I love, love, love Gainesville Holistic Healthcare! I had a fall back in October that resulted in…read moreseveral scars on my face. One was a dime-sized bump above my upper lip that was itchy, red, sensitive, and ugly. It was so painful that I couldn't even go over it with a washcloth and it stuck out so far that you could see it from the side. My other bad scar area was actually inside my bottom lip. This scar was tight and I didn't have any feeling at all in half of my bottom lip. I went to Gainesville Holistic Healthcare to check out microcurrent point stimulation (MPS). The staff there worked with me to find a routine that worked for me. I ended up going twice a week for 15 minutes each to manage all of my scars. By the end of the first month, the scar above my upper lip was flat, less red, and not painful at all anymore. The scar inside my bottom lip was pretty abnormal, but Traci worked with me to find the best protocol. By November, I finally started to get feeling back in my bottom lip, and the scars didn't feel nearly as tight. I seriously can't express how great this place is. The staff are all nice, welcoming, and extremely accommodating. Face injuries are so personal, and they were just as happy as I was every time I hit a new milestone in my healing. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else for my MPS treatments. By the way - their waiting room is awesome. It's full of paintings, jewelry, and candles by local artists, and most are for sale. They also have an awesome selection of natural remedies and CBD products. 10/10!!

Competent therapists, friendly and helpful front desk staff, but I won't be returning. I've been…read morehere twice, and both times had weird interactions from two different therapists. One seemed annoyed that I didn't practice yoga because "yoga is life" according to him. The other therapist lectured me about my tight muscles in my back, but didn't make any suggestions on how to try to rectify the problem. I'm receptive to feedback, but not to being lectured or spoken down to by people who I'm paying for a service.

After trying about five other therapists from around town who couldn't quite seem to go deep enough, I finally lucked up on Bowers. I told them my problem and Linda immediately suggested Mark.

I always get immediate relief after visiting. Love it!

She identifies problem areas, seems talented at physical maladies, and finds way to target needed therapy to the issues that need attention.

I have been referred to massage therapists in several countries over the years, and their efforts while comfortable and relaxing, nothing really improved. Julie stands out among her colleagues. She really knows what she is doing. Can't recommend her enough!
