It's been a while since I had a massage, but since we're back in full workout season, I may have worked a little too hard at the gym. My left shoulder, specifically my rotator cuff (yes, it's bothered me before so I know what it is) needed some work. I went to Santa Rosa Medical Massage, booked with Avocado, which is her name. Like good therapists I have seen in the past, she 'listens' to your body, they just know where your pain is. Of course I confirmed it. She did an excellent job, but I messed up that area really good so I'll have to go back. Massage doesn't always fix everything in one sitting. I can't take pain meds anymore, and most doctors won't prescribe them, trust me, this is the next best thing, if not THE best thing.

Over the weekend, I came to see Avocado for a neck/shoulder massage. For the last few weeks, I have been having really bad neck and shoulder pains that pulls up my jaw and into the back of the head. I also have been having dizziness especially when I'm on the computer at work which is not fun! Due to the Christmas weekend, there were not many places that offer acupuncture that was open. I found Santa Rosa Medical Massage on google and thought I'll give them a try.
1. I love that you can book online - TONS of same day appointments.
2. I love that there is a private parking lot so you don't have to park on the street.
3. Clean facilities. Private rooms.
4. Avocado took the time to LISTEN to me and get to know me and my pain before we began. She was taking notes the whole time.
Those were all big pluses for me. The massage was relaxing and I felt more at ease and grounded after. She gave some great pointers for my work station as well as work out tips at home. I felt she genuinely cared for my health and well being. Although sadly, my neck issue and dizziness did not get cured from this massage (I'm more messed up than I thought), I still recommend them for your injury needs.Annie L.

I found this place via Yelp. My shoulders and neck were so tight that I couldn't even move my head to the side.
I booked with this place because:
1. They had a same day appointment
2. I was able to book online
3. They had a special for new clients - 60 minute trigger point for only $59
I got Jamie as a massage therapist and she was absolutely wonderful. I also added cupping ($10 extra) to my session. By the end of the appointment I was able to move my neck. I was still stiff and sore but better. As the day went on I noticed that I was getting better slowly. Two days later... I am still getting better.
This was my first time doing a trigger massage and I am hooked. It was better than any massage I have gotten and they really focused on the areas that were giving me pain. This is a massage where you can see the effects of it happen day after day.
I will definitely be back. It's a lot more affordable than traditional places so you can actually afford to do a massage more than a couple times a year.Leslie T.

Don't even read any of the negative reviews!!! The people who left them must be absolutely miserable people or are unable to follow simple instructions.
I had my first trigger point massage from Stacy yesterday. I immediately made another appointment and then went home crying, not because of pain but out of pure joy. Stacy, in 75 minutes, gave me more attention, expertise, therapeutic intervention and relief than I've received in 2 1/2 years. I've suffered with significant pain from piriormis syndrome. I have seen endless doctors, orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, sports medicine specialists and radiologists all who couldn't help.
Stacy intuitively knew what was wrong with me. She spent time "getting to know" my body and then went to work. She is amazingly strong, persistent, receptive and therapeutic.
At this point, I'd say Stacy is a miracle worker. I walked up my stairs last evening for the first time in years without pain. I slept through the night without pain. I got out of bed this morning without pain and have skipped my way through the day 90% pain free.
I appreciate Stacy's strict Covid policy. I appreciate her bare feet; I appreciate that she was dressed in clothes conducive to hard work; I appreciate her professionalism, knowledge and determination. I appreciate that she is a tall woman with very strong hands and arms.
Stacy treated me with utmost dignity and respect; most importantly, she helped me! I couldn't be happier. I believe I'm on my way back to normal. It makes me cry!! Thank you Stacy!Susan D.
