wonderful prenatal massage

by dwinata at Citysearch

I am 6 months pregnant and have had muscle aches and tension throughout my body. My OB-GYN recommended massage therapy, so I got online and found Village Massage through Citysearch. Their website lists several discounts that you can use, including a first-time client discount, so be sure to request it!

My appointment was with Howard... he asked lots of questions and really customized my massage to my preferences and needs. I have experienced some sciatic nerve issues, and he taught me some stretches to help alleviate the pain. His top priority was my comfort and satisfaction, and the massage was perfect... certainly the best I've ever received. I will definitely be returning!

• Pros: professional and highly skilled, customized
• Cons: absolutely none

Worth every penny...

by tmiyata at Citysearch

Christina was my massage therapist. She was terrific. She listened to what I wanted out of the hour.

I've had dozens of massages in the past. I was a bit hesitatnt to visit a "non-commercial" entity.

Boy, was I pleasantly surprised. I thought Village Massage was great.

Very professional staff, through and through...

• Pros: Attentive listeners to my particular needs

Indulge yourself Indulge your senses

by Cam13s at Citysearch

This is the Rolls Royce of massages. My husband has been working late deadlines 7 days a week. He said following his appointment with Howard and his team "it just doesn't get any better than this" he came away walking on air,- gone was the grouch he had been. Everyone deserves to have a luxurious bit of heaven once in a while and this is the Rolls Royce of massages in a beautiful roomy and clean setting. We loved this place and we know you will too. Go on go on you know you want to, you deserve it ......

• Pros: Professional knowledgeable reassuring
• Cons: There are none

Wonderful Massage

by Mistyblue217 at Citysearch

I went to Village Massage for the first time and was very, very pleased. I felt like the massage therapist, Howard, was very knowledgeable about massage and its impact on the body. I would highly recommend that anyone go here for a massage. It's also conveniently located and the prices are competitive with large salons. I highly recommend this location.

• Pros: Very relaxing
• Cons: None

Howard takes the time to ask you questions before your message and taylor the massage to your specific needs and level of comfort....I love the stretching, the hot stones, heated table and hot towels. The massage was amazing and I wouldhighly recommend Howard at Village Massage.

The Utopia of all massages...

by LTK at Citysearch

This has been my 3rd visit with Massage Therapist, Howard and I will keep on coming back. His professionalism and calm spirit helps my mind be at ease and escape from all worries and stress. I like the fact that he is willing to listen and cater to what, where and how you would like your massage to be focused on. It is definitely the Utopia of all massages....I love the stretching, the hot stones, hot towels, exfoliation and, not to forget, the amazing breast massage that sent nerves tingling to all ends of my body; all the way down to my pinky-toes; stimulating all of my happy hormones. The massage overall was breath-taking and I didn't want it to end even after 2 hours....I felt like I melted on his massage table. It took me almost another half an hour to come back to reality and get ready to leave.

• Pros: Relaxes and rejuvenates your mind, body and spirit.
• Cons: The massage time is never long enough...

one of the best massages I've ever had

by marthacc at Citysearch

I have had about 3 or 4 massages from Howard at Village Massage. I have kept coming back because of his professional, relaxed manner and because of the stretches he creates through my shoulders and hips. I practice yoga regularly (about 5 times a week) and am flexible but sometimes need some help to release pressure in my lower back and hips as well as tension in my upper back and shoulders. The stretches he performs does just that! The last time I went, he performed a full-body, integrative massage that included a breast massage. At first, I was a little hesitant, but Howard's manner and demeanor was perfectly professional and he made me feel completely comfortable. I would recommend this type of massage or any other type (and Howard!) to anyone who's looking for a relaxing, recuperative massage.

• Pros: full-body, integrative massage with stretches

Fantastic Prenatal Massage

by customer44 at Citysearch

I recently had two prenatal massages from Howard. I found him by reading the reviews on this website from people who previously received prenatal massages. I had been to several different places during this pregnancy but could not find someone who seemed to feel comfortable giving a prenatal massage. I left feeling no different than when I went in and they did nothing for my back pain. It almost seemed like they were nervous about putting any pressure on my muscles at all.

The massage at Village Massage was the complete opposite. You will leave feeling completely relaxed and your muscles feel like jello. My back pain issue was also temporarily relieved. Everything in the reviews is spot on and I will definately continue to visit Howard for the remainder of my pregnancy.

Very relaxing....

by Ckemmy at Citysearch

I can say lots of things but everyone else has said it better....I was here in 2006 as a first timer and the experience was sooooooo good. I wanted to go back many times but just never made it and recently when i really needed a massage, i could not think of anywhere else but here. I had a my second one recently and could not believe just how much better i felt afterwards. Howard i a therapist at heart.....he knows what to do, how and when. I recommend him anytime you need anykind of massage. He is respectful of your desires as you present them .....very professional and concerned about how you feel during therapy. I am a woman,and ven though both times i got a full head to toe massage,i never felt for a minute like i was overly exposed or violated. .....Both times i fell asleep on the table.....thats how relaxed i was. Very good place.....you must go.

• Pros: Location, ambiance, customer service
• Cons: None

My Favorite Massage Ever

by TMCDoc at Citysearch

Howard, the owner, fit me in right away when I called with severe neck and back pain. He listened to my problem, offered home exercise instruction and recommended therapeutic massage products to use at home. The ambiance was serene and calming. This was by far the best massage I've ever had and the only massage where I felt safe. Howard was open to requests during the massage in terms of areas to focus on and how much pressure to use. I left feeling infinitely better and have another appointment today!

• Pros: Highly trained masseuse, open to direction
• Cons: Requested feedback at end in front of masseuse
