Customer Reviews
I have been working with Sarah for several months to address chronic headaches and migraines. I was initially drawn to Sarah’s approach based on her website, specifically her focus on somatic healing and pain reprocessing therapy. From the first session, Sarah created a space that felt safe, grounded, and open. Her energy is warm, intuitive, and non-judgmental. Each session has been unique and have all felt very supportive. The sessions are centered around somatic tracking and gentle techniques to retrain my nervous system and help my body feel safe. We've explored a range of tools- from breathwork and subtle movement to vocal expression, memory work, and positive imagery. Sarah is very skilled as a guide. She has a remarkable ability to follow the thread of what’s arising and gently help
I've had two sessions with Sarah so far and will undoubtedly have more! Her space is lovely and comfortable, as is her energy. She's very present and mindful throughout the session, and her techniques are very effective. Her coaching cues throughout the sessions make me feel rooted in my body and the moment. I've left each session feeling very cared for and better than when I arrived. Would definitely recommend!
***I would not recommend this service to others seeking a traditional or therapeutic massage experience. *** I recently booked a 60-minute massage session with this therapist, expecting a massage as advertised. Unfortunately, the experience did not meet expectations. The session began with a lengthy (30-ish minute) explanation of her practice and philosophy around pain, which felt more like a lecture than part of a therapeutic service. This was followed by a body evaluation (10-ish minute). Only in the final 10 minutes did she actually perform any massage work, and even then, she talked the entire time. I was surprised when the session ended abruptly—with only 10 minutes of actual "massage"—and I was still charged the full price. There was no prior disclosure that such a large portion o
I’ve been seeing Sarah in the last few weeks for Craniosacral therapy. Her approach involves bringing awareness to the issues during the session as well as continuing to be aware following the treatments. In this way, there is a long-term sustainable solution to the problems, and you have plenty of tools to address them while you are not in session. She provides additional support and guidance following the session through emails. Sarah is extremely kind and compassionate, and I always look forward to our sessions as I feel so relaxed and resilient after.
Sarah is a wonderful massage therapist. I have chronic conditions and Sarah readily adapts her treatment to meet my needs and ensure I’m not experiencing pain or worsened symptoms from treatment. Every time I move and need to look for a new massage therapist, I look not just for someone with the technical skill but for someone who has a warm, healing spirit. You’ll find this in Sarah. I recommend her without reservation! Update, 4 years later: I’ve seen Sarah regularly for bodywork the past 4 years and she continues to provide excellent care and be a trusted member of my healthcare team.
