My Heros!

by David R Hawkins

My Heros! I am a middle aged triathlete who (like many in the sport), has experienced continual problems with calf muscle strains, cramps, and pain. Additionally, achilles tendonitis. I am about to compete in the Texas Ironman Rece at The Woodlands. My training for this event was pretty much on hold as far as running due to Calf and achilles issues. I tried Sports Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, Rest, KT Tape...pretty much everything I could think of and was not getting better. Then I found Ady and KAVANA. She and her staff immediately diagnosed my underlying issues and went to work on me. After not running for almost two months, Ady and her staff had me doing my first run (All be it a short one), within 10 days of my first visit. WIthin three weeks, I ran a half marathon, and have been hard at Ironman training ever since.

Thank You Ady and KAVANA! You have helped prepare me to achieve a life long goal. IRONMAN!

Thank You

Ady is the one for "Trigger Point" and Myofascial Release

by MaryS601

I have been going to Ady for a super tight neck and clenched jaw every 2 weeks for about 6 months. Every time I go I feel like someone has finally figured out where decades worth of stress have settled in my body.

I didn't need a "typical" massage just for fun, I needed some serious help. Ady has the patience and knowledge to find the right places and to gradually reduce years of damage. I feel like my neck is getting longer and my neck and jaw have gotten a little younger.

Ady has taught me how to "breath through" her work with releasing the tightness in many trigger points so I feel like we are a team when I can feel the "knot" release as she works.

I would recommend Ady to anyone who wants to participate in the process of finding where your stress is and working with her to release it.

Wonderfully consistent experience

by lovemassage12

Well I have been 4 times already and I have been very pleased each time. I have received many massages, but rarely have I gone somewhere where I have been consistently satisfied with my experience. I like my massages deep and I carry most of my tension in my head, neck and jaws, as well as my hands. I have seen Malena, Neena and Dana. Each lady had her own style, but they all hit the right spots and I walked out feeling better and sleeping better each time. They were great! Malena got deep into neck (wonderful) and showed me some great stretches. Dana had me focusing on my deep breathing and her pressure was perfect. And Neena worked deep into my back and really got into it! I will continue coming back, and would recommend anyone of these ladies. I thought that the space was cute and comfortable and I liked that it was in an older house from the 1920's and not one of those overly done spas.

Not Great not bad

by thy29

I have to agree that the place really loses a lot of points because it doesn't give you the warm fuzzy feeling of a spa... it's not overly welcoming (sometimes there's NO ONE there to welcome you). Not sure if the other location is better. I'm sure I'll be back to Lexington location at least once or twice more... but only if Patrick is there...
