We stayed at the B&B (which I also highly recommend) and Louise had a spot open for a massage. What a wonderful thing for me. She is obviously very passionate about helping people. I have TMJ. She taught me how to stretch my jaw & remove the lactic acid that gives me trouble. Louise's whole massage was outstanding! The decor of the massage room is also very nice. The gorgeous original large stained glass windows that were there from when the building was a church add to the unique, yet peaceful atmosphere.

After trying many different things for pain relief, I finally found one that works.

It's called a massage at Back to Health Spa at Oakland.

Long lasting relief and worth the reasonable price.

Great staff and caring!

Go!

I have been seeing Louise over the past year. If you have a kink, ache, or pain she will fix it. I feel healed when I leave. She is also good at helping you relax which is quite a feat for me. I will continue to see her for all of my needs.

Louise is an expert at finding sore and tight spots. I run several miles a week and have a very physically demanding job. When I see her, I know she will get me feeling brand new. Thanks, Louise.

I am a runner, who battled achilles tendonitis for almost three weeks. My podiatrist recommended massage, but recommended no one. During my search, I stumbled upon Louise. Upon speaking to her, I learned of her background and her experience in working with runners. I was sold. The hour long session lasted well over an hour and she made sure that I knew how to perform all of the stretches that she showed me. Subsequent attempts to run were with a great deal of pain and usually left me hobbling home. These were no extended runs, but rather attempts to two to three miles at a slow pace. The day following my massage, I cautiously went out for a five mile run - no pain, no hobbling. The next day, five more miles and, again, no pain. On the third day, I "tested" it by running seven miles, but included some faster pace running. To my surprise, I've had no pain. I am still hesitant and have been stretching the area. I feel that the massage was the reason for my quick recovery. Again, prior to massage, my running consisted of taking pain medication, hobbling through a few miles, and then having to take several days off. This cycle repeated itself. As Louise put it, if one group of muscles are not happy, then none will be happy. Her deep tissue massage loosened up my problems areas and made my calves and achilles happy again. Thanks and I will be back!
