I'm so glad I found her and plan to see her regularly." ~Gail Pettersen

If you're looking to feel better inside and out, go see Melissa!!" ~Mike Richardson

I lead an active lifestyle. She's helping me to continue being active by working on a recent acute injury plus some older chronic issues. Her work includes several techniques I haven't experienced with other massage therapists. I'm very happy with the results & strongly recommend her as a massage therapist". ~Steven Sobel, DC

"As an Accountant, tax season is always drudgery - deadlines, stress and super-long hours. But last year I had a massage per week from Melissa for six weeks in a row! I can't describe what a difference it made. My body and mind both felt great, and I had something to look forward to every week. I've had massages before - but never on a regular basis like that - and never with someone as good as Melissa. I'm doing it again this year, this year"! ~Max G.
"WOW! I would like to thank you, Melissa, for the amazing massage and for you coming into my home to do so. You turned my chaotic situation into a very soothing, relaxing, and stress-free environment and helped me truly feel wonderful. As a result of the amazing massage you did I was also able to increase my running time the next morning! I can truly see the benefits of massage and hope others will utilize your services as well. With your mobile services it makes it very comfortable and also removes the stress of having to get somewhere on time! Instead you take the burden of getting someone on time! THANK YOU"! ~Kym A.
"Dear Melissa, I am writing to let you know how much the staff in our office appreciated the work that you have done over the past few visits. When I found out you had a portable chair to offer massage, I thought this would be a great addition to our Wellness Program. I contacted our staff to see if there was any interest. Immediately several people indicated they would love to have you come in. The first session was a hit. We had 5 employees take advantage of your services and they asked for more! A second session was scheduled in which 7 employees participated. All the feedback was positive, they feel refreshed and energized. You are truly professional and discreet. You communicate with each client and tailor each massage to fit their individual needs. for a business that is looking for an addition to their Wellness and Benefits Program-I would highly recommend your chair massage services". ~Tammy L.
"I began seeing Melissa in March of 2012, and she is a wonderful massage therapists! I have hyperkyphosis, which is three underdeveloped vertebrae in my spine, located in the middle of my back, which can cause a lot of pain and discomfort. I discovered this diagnosis in my early twenties, and consulted orthopedic surgeons, chiropractors, pain therapists, physical therapy & of course massage. I am a very active person with mountain biking in the summer, spring, and fall, while snowboarding during the winter months as much as possible. I find staying "active" helps my situation, keeps everything moving, while continuing to build my muscle strength. So with all the physical abuse I put my body through with my extreme sport addiction, massage certainly helps. I have had quite a few massage therapists through out my life, and Melissa is by far the best I have ever had. She really focuses on my particular needs to keep my muscles loose & relaxed for all my physical activities. I had two sessions with her before she left for Costa Rica to take a medical massage course. When she returned she wanted to try some the new techniques she had learned. Of course I was willing to let her try any of the new techniques she had to offer, and WOW they really worked. As I continue to see Melissa she always expresses concerns on how I am doing and really customizes her massage techniques for my body. She really does focus on the "wellness" of her clients. I try and see her at least once a month, I really wish I could go once a week. Melissa is really focused on her profession and is passionate about her work. If you are looking for a great massage therapists, that has a mobile business & her own space for massage, give Melissa a chance, you will not be disappointed". ~Brian S.
"Melissa and I were classmates in massage school, and have remained close friends ever since. While in school, we founded The Massage Therapy club together and organized fund-raising events so our class could attend a statewide massage convention. From the beginning, it was clear that Melissa's success in life stemmed from her professionalism, determination, and spirit. Her strong hands, deep compassion and healing touch are what make her a special and intuitive massage therapist". ~Mandy O.

"I have been working with Melissa Marks as my massage therapist for 5 months. What I love about Melissa’s services is she travels to my office, making it easier to fit my massage appointments into my hectic work schedule. Having the massage done in my office is not only convenient but also very comfortable being in “my space” and I can relax more deeply into the massage. Melissa provides all the “extras” of a SPA massage when she travels to my location and until I open my eyes, it’s easy to forget that I am at work! I know I can count on her in my busy schedule to be there on time, with all her supplies, and provide the highest quality of therapeutic massage that my body needs. Additionally, she follows up with me and checks to make sure I am maximizing the massage work by remembering to follow through with the exercises she has personalized for me! Talk about exceptional service! I recommend without reservation, Melissa’s massage services to anyone looking for the highest quality of massage from a licensed massage professional who will help them feel better in the convenience of their home or office". ~Marianne Mullen
"I am grateful for the expertise and extra effort Melissa has applied to my abused body. Her knowledge of anatomy has given me the confidence in her abilities to get to the root of my problems. Thank you". ~Mike
"I would like to express my heartfelt enthusiasm for the expert care I received when getting a massage from Melissa Marks! After seriously injuring my right shoulder and virtually unable to move and in great pain, Melissa gingerly began to massage the affected area. Melissa asked me questions regularly so as to not strain the area further and yet she was able to carefully get my muscles to gradually relax through the massage. It was amazing to me that I was on the path to healing soley because of the massage I received from Melissa! I now get a massage on a regular basis from Melissa and feel it is as important as my regular chiropractic adjustment. Melissa is very professional in her manner yet caring and sensitive in making sure that the massage time is completely enjoyable from the warmed table and top blanket to the beautiful music she plays to the lavender oil she knows I love! She truly gives 100% of herself to make sure the experience is of true value to her client! I love getting massages from Melissa and will continue to do so for a long, long time into the future! Thank you so much Melissa"!!! ~Barb D.
