She was extremely comfortable to be around and made sure I was modestly covered for the entire session. My lower back and hips feel much better and my neck and shoulders are way more relaxed than I can remember in a long time. I made sure to schedule upcoming appointments with Kassandra because I can see this really helping me physically, in the long run. Also, I should add that I am a large gal so I can't lay on my stomach. Kassandra was able to find ways to keep me comfortable and still get her job done. Being overweight in a situation such as this, you feel very vulnerable. Kassandra handled it like a champ and never once, did I feel judged. She's awesome!

Mandy is unlike any other massage therapist I've visited. She is amazing at finding the source of…read morethe pain in your body without needing to tell her. She is constantly studying and educating herself of the musculoskeletal system to build her skills even better. She is worth every penny spent, as I feel her knowledge is equivalent to a doctor. She is truly passionate about what she does, you can tell she loves her job and enjoys helping people. She is an incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional healer. Her office is very clean, organized, and includes everything you would expect in a relaxing environment. Aromatherapy, low lighting, salt lamp and heated salt stones, comfy massage table. Mandy is also very committed to practicing precautions during Covid-19. She has a sink in her office so she can wash her hands often, asks her guests to wash their hands, and she encourages wearing a mask. Needless to say I would highly recommend booking an appointment at Knots Away Massage! She's all around perfect!

I was in desperate need of a massage and found an opening at Serene on a Saturday. I scheduled a 90…read moreminute deep tissue massage with Hannah and let me tell you, it was the most AMAZING experience I have ever had. Hannah really listened to my needs and took her time to focus on the areas that needed a little more work. Hannah even asked me about my time because she had located the source of my problem and wanted to work it on it a little longer but wanted to respect my time. I will definitely be going back and will be telling everyone I know to get a massage with Hannah! Caleb works the front desk and he was very sweet and kind.

The rooms smelled good, the temperature was lovely and the whole place just felt warm and cozy, I was instantly at ease. I'd also like to add that even though they don't have online booking you can text and they text back during business hours, easy to make an appointment!! There is free private parking and it was easy to find. My massage therapist, Anna, was wonderful and I'll be requesting her again. She listened to what I needed, responded to my feedback during the massage, and my massage was perfect. I was impressed that you get a hot towel service before you flip and at the end of your massage, so you don't leave covered in massage oil! Plus it just felt amazing. Oh, I also appreciate when the table is heated, which it was!

I went in for a bit of relaxation in advance of my brothers' wedding, and also because I have heard that lymphatic massage can have a de-puffing effect, I was hoping to look good in my dress! The experience from start to finish was very relaxing. I booked with Lena, who met with me briefly before my appointment to understand any concerns. She was thoughtful, thorough and made it a very relaxing experience. I honestly did notice a difference in my appearance for the days following! I will be back before my next event!

Both classes have been great due to Kate's plant expertise and the magic of the Honu. Additionally, I attended an open house where Honu had products on sale, dialog with staff and patrons along with snacks. Located in Saint Paul across from Pizza Luce and next to Yellow Bird, Honu offers wellness products and services to help live a healthier lifestyle. From candles to essential oils to tarot cards to supplements to handcrafted stones - the shop has it all. Services from message therapy, reiki, workshops, and ionic foot baths, there is something for everyone. Honu sells not only their own products but also local artists from Slow Burn candles to Violet Fox Apothecary. The building layout feels like a home. It is styled with comfort, intention and love. There are 2 rooms for services along with a main entry room where workshops are held. With each visit, I have felt extremely calm and luxurious. I can't wait to book another service in the future. Thank you for being part of Saint Paul and sharing your beautiful space, Honu!!

Positive-Applied adequate pressure for a deep tissue massage…read more Negative-The first session, I understand the questions and the need for communication. But at the end of this session, I informed her that I prefer to not communicate during a massage. Thinking that I would be listened to, I then booked two appointments online. The next one I wanted to leave within the first 15 minutes of arriving. She did not listen to my request to not have ongoing communication during the session. But that wasn't the main reason I wanted to leave. The first 15 minutes of the session she asked me what worked and didn't work for the last session, I told her places on my body that I did not want touched. I felt like I was being argued with for the next 15 minutes as to why she felt the need to touch me in those areas. Then at the end of the session when I was tired, and just wanted to go home, she spent another 10 minutes trying to show me in a book why she felt the need for these areas to be addressed. I already said no. But I'm not listened to. My other massage therapist was wonderful and listened to me and never touched those areas. Unfortunately she's too far away For me to continue to see and so that's why I thought I would give Lauren a chance. During the session she kept bringing up reasons why she felt the need to go in those areas. I also felt like I was being talked down to about why she felt the need to work on those areas even though I said no. I am BIPOC and some of the things she was doing were not culturally sensitive. I understand as a white practitioner she may not understand these issues, so I spent part of that time explaining it to her. I was still not listened to and she insisted continuing to do these things. I wanted to leave the session, but I had already paid, so I stayed. I left that session, feeling frustrated, angry, and demeaned. I went online to cancel my next appointment and she sent me a text back saying that she would not refund my money. Adding insult to injury. I didn't want my money to fully go to waste, so I sent a Caucasian coworker to use my remaining session. She, too, felt that the session was more chatty than she likes. She, too, will not be returning. Rarely would I write a bad review. But this one had me so upset I just had to. There's so many massage therapists in the city. I wouldn't recommend going to this one.
