Client reviews
“Anna is amazing. Her background in kinesiology shines through as she helps me to understand why experiencing pain and how to avoid it. She is very caring and thorough. Anna gives me stretches to relieve tension and exercises to strengthen. I cannot recommend her enough. I often feel less stressed, less restriction and I for sure feel taller when I walk out of AH Massage Therapy! Also, great location and vibe. Go see Anna!”
“Everything about AH Massage is fantastic!
Anna is so knowledgeable about anatomy that her massage technique is in part athletic therapy. In addition she provides ideas for self massage or targeted exercises to do post treatment or between treatments.
The space is peaceful and welcoming. As is Anna herself.
There is parking by the building which makes the location trouble free.
I look so forward to being able to to return to AH Massage in the new year.”
