"I have been seeking Vanessa's breath of experience in massage, yoga, nutrition, and life support for years and have had only positive results. She has an amazing way of combining her rich skills, and understandings of humanity; addressing the whole self, providing you with the teachings needed, leaving you with not only the tools to use on your own but also an increased self awareness." ---Julie L (Art Therapist/Graphic Artist)
"I really enjoy yoga classes with Vanessa. She teaches a great class with good description, direction, and correction. she is light hearted and keeps us smiling. (With her massage techniques)...she is able to read my body and know exactly what it needs and is able to provide it. It is always very calming and relaxing and I easily drift into a meditative state. I feel fabulous afterwards!---Sandra L
"I schedule a monthly massage with Vanessa to alleviate stress and tension in my neck and shoulders due to hours of daily computer time. Sessions with her are always therapeutic. She also gives me suggestions on different things (stretches) to try between sessions. Vanessa truly cares about the person physically and mentally."---Sherry (Customer Service/Sales Support)
"Vanessa has an excellent understanding of the human body, drawing from both ancient and modern studies which she is able to translate effectively into her massage techniques-I have complete confidence in her abilities. She is equally as awesome at full body massage as she is at pinpointing particular problem areas. As a bonus, she is friendly, generous, eager to share things she enjoys, and just a little bit quirky....in a good way (: "----Jamie F (medical technologist)
“I enjoy her classes, I didn’t know what to expect, but I could connect with the way you approach addiction and how to deal with it. I did not want to go to battle with my addiction but let it go from my life..thank you! “ Richard
"I have been suffering from TMJ for a couple of years. I didn't believe it when it was first told to me by an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. I was having ear pain and also having trouble hearing. I had recently had a bad cold with an ear infection and I thought it was not responding to meds. I thought the doctor was wrong. I didn't have any jaw pain. It didn't hurt to chew. A year later, another ENT diagnosed me with Eustachian Tube Disorder and placed a tube in my ear. All was well for a few months, then the ear pain and lack of hearing returned. I returned to the first ENT who reminded me of the TMJ diagnosis from the previous visit.
Luckily I was scheduled to see Vanessa later that week. When I told her of the diagnosis, she spent most of my visit working on my jaw. I had also been struggling with neck, shoulder, upper arm and back pain. Within a day of my session with Vanessa, all of my pain was gone! My neck, shoulder, back and upper arms were pain free!
I have been seeing Vanessa for several years. It's my monthly treat to myself. I always feel better after seeing her. I have a number of muscle and ortho issues. She is thoughtful, knowledgeable, patient and professional. I look forward to every session and appreciate Vanessa's diligence and caring attitude."- Janet O
