Hubs and I booked a couples massage to ring in the New Year with intention--and it was everything we hoped for. For context: we've been on a decades-long quest to find a massage my husband actually thinks is good. (As an avid cyclist and weight-lifter, he always asks for deep pressure and has... consistently walked out disappointed.) This was basically my last-ditch effort--or he was officially "giving up" on massages forever. Pressure on... ...MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! This was the first massage where he said to me post-session, "That's it. That's the one. That was the best massage I've ever had." HUSBANDS EXPERIENCE WITH SEAN: From the very start, the pressure was exactly what he's been searching for--strong, controlled, intentional, and effective. Every knot and tight spot he said was worked through with actual strength and technique he's never experienced before. Sean released long-held tension he didn't even know he had! He walked out feeling lighter, looser, and more aligned than he has in years. We literally went out to celebrate after - I was so happy we found "the one"! MY EXPERIENCE WITH SHEA: Absolutely amazing. She's incredibly skilled and knowledgeable, which instantly put me at ease--trusting someone to work on your body in a healing way can feel vulnerable and even a little intimidating, but her technical expertise made it easy to fully relax and trust the process. The session felt completely organic, with space to communicate throughout about my goals. We decided to incorporate some lymphatic drainage, and I have to say--I woke up this morning feeling refreshed, energized, and honestly, my face looks snatched! My body feels lighter, more balanced, and completely restored--no soreness, just pure renewal. These two are pure magic! Hands down, one of the best massage experiences we've ever had. We'll absolutely be back.

Very knowledgable staff who genuinely care about making you feel better. Sean was very attentive and took the time beforehand to access my pain areas. He even gives follow up instructions and recommendations to prevent future knots. Felt comfortable and secure as a female with same day relief. Highly recommend! Will be back.

I recently received a massage at The Healing Touch. Sean was very thorough in his consultation and was great about asking questions, checking my pain level, and getting consent before starting different techniques. He did help reduce some of my pain. However, several parts of the session made me uncomfortable. The Thai massage technique of standing on me was sometimes very painful and continuous without breaks between targeting painful area. My primary area of concern was only partially addressed; I actually left with a large knot in my shoulder that contributed to ongoing neck pain. During the session, Sean frequently spoke or chanted phrases in another language. While I fully respect cultural and spiritual practices, this was unexpected in a clinical massage setting and wasn’t something he discussed with me beforehand. At the end of the session, he asked if I believed in the power of prayer, which added to my discomfort as a nonreligious person. My biggest concern was a neck manipulation that felt like a chiropractic adjustment. Sean wrapped a towel around my neck and moved it rapidly, causing my upper spine to crack. This technique wasn’t explained at all beforehand, it was painful, and it’s not something I would consent to during a massage. As someone who receives regular massages, I don’t expect chiropractic-style adjustments or spiritual elements without clear explanation and explicit consent.

Shea was amazing and very informative! Definitely helped with a lot of muscle soreness that I experience from weekly physical activities.. I love that her and Sean also left me with recommendations and follow up steps to take to make sure I continue progressing in the right direction. Definitely would recommend.

Sean is very respectful and knowledgeable about massage therapy. He helped me understand more about how to take care of my body and educated the importance of stretching and drinking lots of water. I have knots all over my body and always have a hard time sleeping due to headaches and tightness. Sean also went above and beyond even though he had a very long day of other clients so I truly appreciate it. I can tell he cares for his clients. He's really passionate about spreading awareness of health over the money. I would recommend him and look forward to our next session to untie these knots!
