She may not still employ any of her students anymore, but when she did, they were also very good. They were in a different location before, closer to Boston. Had I not relocated to Los Angeles, I would still be a regular here. There was one time in particular that I remember. I was in serious pain from an extra hard Friday morning gym session. By Sunday morning every move I made caused me pain. So, I called and booked a 90 minute session for early afternoon, as I needed to be on my way to an evening gig (I'm a professional drummer) by 4 PM. By the end of the session most of my pain was gone and I was able to enjoy my four hour gig. I highly recommend this place!

She made like she knew everything outside her scope of practice and she was also brusque.

Can't wait to go back!

One word: HORRIBLE! Seven good reasons to stay away…read more 1. Not easy to find office door. (No signs) 2. Creepy, tacky basement. 3.

No pressure and stopped working to talk. 6. Used paper towels to whip oils off. 7. Didn't have change for a $20 tip. Save your time and money!

It is very easy to give a 5 Star Reviews to Restorative Massages and Wellness, LLC. thanks to two…read moreoutstanding massage therapists, Steve and Sharmese. Steve is fantastic! Best massage I have ever had and I highly recommend to everyone! Steve is clearly #1, and Sharmese is a close second. Both Steve and Sharmese are very experienced and spend the time with you to understand any issues before you get a massage. They are truly amazing! The space is crystal clean, welcoming, and comfortable and every precaution taken. I have never had any issue about safety. Both Steve and Sharmese's approach is warm, kind, and compassionate and they take the time and each has extensive expertise to understand and meet each client's needs and goals. The massage is always outstanding ... their skill is incredible! It was immensely therapeutic for me as it helped me greatly reduce my stress and relax deeply, as well as decrease my neck and back pain and increase my flexibility. I would strongly recommend both Steve and Sharmese at Restorative Massage and Wellness. Steve is a thoughtful, dedicated therapist that provides personalized treatment to his clients. He draws from a wealth of knowledge and experience along with completing the full doctorate program in physical therapy so Steve is beyond masseuse trained. I would highly recommend Steve to friends and family. I am regularly booked with Steve and find out well in advance if he is on vacation so I can book Sharmese as a backup. The desk staff is also excellent in working to get you in, if there are no openings, and you are waiting for a cancellation. True professional staff all around! I met Isaac my first time here who is the owner and a licensed trained masseuse too. Isaac treats the staff professionally because he truly understands what it takes to be #1 in this field! Parking on Washington Street is free, and if you cannot find a space, the side street has plenty of spaces as a backup.

The second time was a good massage but the masseuse seemed rush and because I check the time I noticed I didn't even get my full 75 minutes. It wasn't as relaxing.

It will always be a little painful but with Vanna she took her time so it wasn't as shocking. I'll come as gain but hopefully I get my full time and a more relaxing experience.
