As a massage therapist, I am picky. But, I look forward to every session with Stacy. She helps me relax in ways I can't normally when receiving massage from others. I usually just pick apart what they're doing, spending my time analyzing instead of enjoying my session. But, when I go in for my appointment her professional demeanor and skill set allow me to just "be" and enjoy my own healing time so I can keep giving my clients the best of my ability. It's rare for me to find a therapist who is as in tune with my body and can work through my sensitivities with compassion, proper amounts of strength and aptitude. You'd think every cmt can, but it's rare gift, and she's got it! The ambiance of her studio was carefully crafted, and the table & cradle for your face is soft and cushy. She always asks about my temperature preferences and makes me feel included in my experience. If you're looking for a versatile and skilled massage therapist, please give her a try. read more

Stacey was highly professional, while being warm and engaging. She was able to identify the trouble spot and help to alleviate the tension to help increase movement to my shoulder and reduce the pain. I recommend! Pros: Skilled and professional, excellent service, nice environment, parking is relatively easy. Cons: None. read more

Stacey is incredibly skilled. Probably the best bodywork I've ever had. She specializes in injuries, though - let that not mislead you - her space is every bit as relaxing and nurturing as you can wish for. Stacey is confident, knowledgeable and communicative. One word - gifted. I've booked appointments out as far as I could. Highly recommend. read more

I have been having issues with my upper back, neck, and shoulders due to a prior spinal cord injury. Stacey has been able to provide me relief from those issues and be able to move about in a less guarded manner. Thank you. read more

Wow!!! Stacey Marie is the BEST! I felt great and I plan on going back to her! I haven't felt this good in a long long time. Thanks Stacey!

I've done 2-3 one hour sessions with Stacey and walked out feeling great everytime. She pays attention and really listens to what areas are bothering me. In a typical week I play softball a few times, soccer at least once and spend the rest of the days weight/ crossfit training. Needless to say, my back/shoulders/neck really take a beating. When I'm in need of some expertise to loosen them up, Stacey is always there to heal me and have me back on the field at 100%. Stacey has always fulfilled all my needs as a client. Thanks Stacey! read more

Stacey is a true miracle worker. She has gifted hands and a brilliant mind when it comes to understanding the human anatomy and addressing problem areas that are miss-ballance or strained. The combination of the two = BIG TIME healing!! I've had some on-going repetitive strain issues that no one but Stacey has even been able to address. She gave me some deep massages and with days I had some permanent changes for the better. Not to mention, she is very cool and laid back. She's spoiled me and now I really don't want to visit any other practitioners. But I'm grateful I found her! As a wise man once told me, when you work with professionals... you get results! It's true! read more

Stacey is amazing!!!! I sit at a desk all day and experience chronic pain in my neck and shoulders. I have tried a number of massage therapists in the bay area over the years and was never completely satisfied until I finally found Stacey! Without exaggeration this is the high quality massage that I have been looking for since my trip to Thailand (where massage is king) 6 years ago. Stacey is professional, responsive to feedback, and lives up to her approach posted on her website using a variety of assisted stretches, Swedish and deep tissue, hot stones, aroma therapy, etc to approach problem areas with a comprehensive approach. I left feeling I had received good value for the rate charged. Cannot recommend Stacey highly enough and immediately booked two follow up appointments after my service. read more

Being a massage therapist myself, I need the work I offer. But often finding the right therapist is very difficult. It's very fortunate I can rely on Stacey to give me the relief I need. She can bring me to the edge of what I can take in terms of depth/pressure and confidently rides that edge to give me the relief I need and often addresses issues I am not always aware I have in the process. Her studio is a beautiful, cozy, warm atmosphere to receive bodywork in and her use of heaters and warm towels adds a touch of Zen to the powerful work she offers. She is easily the best deep tissue therapist I have ever experienced and is truly passionate about her profession, and has a holistic approach to the body, even giving me some great tips on nutrition. read more

I live in SF and finding Stacie for a massage was a major treat. I love going to the ocean and then visiting her after for a service. A great trip away from the city:) read more

I went to Stacy for the first time and felt so comfortable with her right away. I am just 2 months out from ACDF Surgery. (had disc removed and hardware put in) She listened to my story and went to work. Its like she is magic. It was hard to believe that someone meeting me for the first time could know my needs so well. She put me in a much deeper state of relaxation than I have ever felt before. I felt like I was floating above my body. My sister in law and I booked return appointments as soon as we were out the door. By far the best massage ever. Super healing read more

Stacey is amazing! I had been hobbling around in a foot brace for 3 months and it seriously messed up my alignment just about everywhere else. I was in pain and booked the first appt I could get with Stacey. I am happily typing away and feeling 100% better than I did earlier this morning before my massage. Stacey understood and sought out where my tension was, and her massage was very effective and soothing. She's small, but she's mighty! I have already made another appointment to see her... read more

Stacey Marie is the Goddess of massage therapy!!! Massages are one of those things that I manage to afford (not without great financial effort) quite often...it's my luxury. I can honestly say that she is one of the best, if not THE BEST therapist I have ever found. I booked a deep tissue, Stacey asked me which body parts were sore and what level of pressure I am comfortable with. She is a very caring person and you can tell that being a therapist is her vocation:). I loved how she first used a great deep tissue technique to FIX my back, then she worked on the rest of the body, leaving my neck last. Now, the neck work was absolutely out of this world, that's why I called her a GODDESS....and felt compelled to write her a review (without being asked). The way she moves your head, first just with her hands and at last using a sheet under your neck/head is incredible...I had this massage a week ago and my neck is still perfect, whatever she did worked magically for me! I urge you to try her healing and relaxing touch. Definitely a good investment for your well being. Great work Stacey, I'll be back soon! read more

Where do i start !! this is my second visit to Stacey, both times i have walked in barely able to move and walked out feeling like i could do a cartwheel. I have been suffering for over a month w severe nerve pain due to a pinched nerve in my neck from a car accident. I have seen 4 doctors, an acupuncturist and a chiropractor with out any relief. By the time i got to Stacey yesterday, i was in bad shape, i hadnt slept pain free in weeks. 90 minutes later i walked out of her space and felt like a different prson. I didnt want to jinx it by getting to excited , hoping the pain wouldnt come back.. but when i woke up this morning after a full 8 hours of pain free sleep and have almost no pain today, i am beyong thankful. She is a true expert in pain management, i have never met anyone who has such a deep understanding of how the human body is rigged.. she is booked up for a reason.. and its not beause she takes 2 hour lunches this girl works her butt off !! the real deal.. If you are at your wits end in pain , call her... even if you cant explain where it hurts, she will figure it out. a true healer !! Make an appoinment and count down the days until you feel better...i cant wait to go see her again.. miracle worker.. read more

First I rarely leave reviews but I feel strongly about my experience. After a year of chronic tendinitis in both forearms and elbows I turned to massage and was lucky I found Stacey. She listened to me and through asking questions she was able to target the areas which were causing me discomfort and apply the right amount of pressure. She is knowledgeable and has extensive training and a unique approach that really helped my healing. (The hot stones helped to relax my forearm and tendons so make sure you ask for them.) It was clear she really enjoys helping people and I truly believe she is the best at what she does. After many sessions focused directly on my elbows and including my arms neck and shoulder my pain went away!! I had thought I would be stuck with the pain. Highly Recommended!!!!! read more

Excellent service. Facility is very welcoming--nice and cozy. Stacey Marie is very professional and respectful of individual concerns/needs. Appointments are easy to book. I agree with the previous reviews--Stacey is adept at figuring out what really needs work (my neck and shoulder). After my first appointment I experienced serious pain relief (that was long-lasting). Then I realized that I (1) not only felt better, but (2) Stacey had accomplished in an hour what a physical therapist was unable to do in three months' worth of weekly visits and what a chiropractor could not accomplish after nine months of bi-weekly treatment. My second appointment only reinforced my confidence in Stacey's ability. I am finally in a place where I believe I soon will not "need" a massage; but I fully intend to continue to apointments with Stacey to retain the wonderful progress I have made. My only hesitation in submitting this review is that I fear an increase in Stacey's business will make appointments hard to book! :-) read more
