I have seen several massage therapists over the years, and Molly is by far the best I have ever been to. I deal with chronic widespread pain and intense stress. Sessions with Molly have changed my connection with my body for the better. I leave sessions with her feeling relaxed, calm, and more centered. My boundaries with myself and others have improved since I began seeing her. I feel more empowered, cared for, and stronger since I began having sessions with her. And, the severity of my pain has significantly lessened since I began seeing Molly. She is so knowledgable and such an excellent communicator. I feel so safe on her table!
I met Molly through a mutual friend the better part of a year ago. After some sporadic sessions, I’ve booking monthly the last several months. Molly is attentive to my needs verbally expressed and what she feels/senses in my body as she’s working. She takes pride in and loves what she does. It’s noticeable without her stating so. I’ve been getting massages for years and with Molly, I feel like she’s really tuned vs going through the motions. I appreciate that and always look forward my next session!
I have been going to Molly regularly for over 3 years now. I was struggling with chronic illness and intense stress and knew I needed to do something about it. I felt immediate relief from my first session. I had kept my chronic illness to myself as much as possible, but with her I could acknowledge it and create a path to healing. She is also a physical trainer, and her training + massage got my physical and mental health finally under control. She is very knowledgeable and I learn something new about my body each visit. My quality of life is greatly improved after meeting Molly. Truly a holistic approach and a critical resource in my life.
LISTEN TO ME. Molly has CHANGED my life, as well as many of my family members! Before I saw Molly for massage, I had only gone to big chain massage places. NOTHING compares to the care & compassion Molly puts into her body work. Does your body hurt from work? Molly will help. Does your body hurt from grief? Molly can help. Do you just want to genuinely relax? Molly has got your back. Literally lol. If I could give her 100000000 stars, I would. Her studio is open, beautiful & welcoming. And she has a SAUNA ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ Molly is a body worker genius. An artist.
Molly took such amazing care of me when I went to see her for the first time a few months back. I’ve only gone to one other massage therapist but it was kind of like a mutual breakup. I just wanted to see other people and learn about different massage styles and how different people perform these types of services. That’s when Molly came into the picture. She walked me through a consultation and chatted with me beforehand to make sure I felt comfortable and got to work. Stretching is a very important part of any routine and even if it’s something you do in your Dailey life, having someone assist you in stretching will help you reset your body in so many wonderful and beautiful ways. Great for people like myself who work in the barbering industry. I’m standing up 9 hours a day cutting hair and it is muderous on my back. Mollys techniques loosened up my muscles, improved circulation in my calves and toes, and I got to have a nice girly chit chat with her!!! The experience was, for a lack of a better word, MAGICAL and I’d recommend her a thousand million percent!!! 10/10 stars!!!
Really great massage. Super relaxing, comfortable space, and Molly did an awesome job working out tension without it feeling rushed. I left feeling way better and would definitely book again.
I've been going to Molly as my LMT for years now. She's great at what she does not just because of her current techniques, but because she always wants to be learning! Not just new certifications but about her clients and how to be the best she can with each one. Her new studio and the sauna are such a vibe, let's get her booked out!
Went to see Molly because she was recommended to me by someone and glad I did! Her intake was really thorough and helped make the session feel easy and relaxed. Had cupping done as well and I appreciated that she explained the process to me as it went.
Go get a table massage from Molly!! You'll thank me after, and get the sauna after it. I've seen several massage therapists over the years and she's one of the best. Can't recommend her enough.
Went in to see Molly because my shoulder had been hurting recently from workouts. She was able to really work on the area and alleviate a lot of the soreness. After the massage the infrared sauna felt great and the next day I felt so much better overall. Can't wait for my next appointment!
