I initially got a 5 package massage as a reward to myself after a rough few months.  The first time I saw Karen, she nearly put me to sleep and really worked on a lot of tight places without leaving me in pain afterward.  Following the massage, she gave me several tips for helping with problem areas I had and said I was tight in a lot of places and would benefit from more regular massages.  After that, I came in for at least a 30 minute massage once a week, sometimes twice, and I noticed a difference in my range of motion and even my health.  I am prone to catch any illness going around, and after seeing Karen, I would always get better faster.  I had been coming to Create Wellness for physical therapy due to a broken leg and ankle, and the massage therapy really complimented the work done in physical therapy.  My healing really took off at this point and I always looked forward to massage time.  Karen has a great way of digging in without leaving you feeling terrible after...in fact, the night after my massages, I always slept like a baby.  She is sensitive to your needs and really understands the human body and how all parts work together.  Beyond this, she is so warm and I always felt she really cared about me as a person.  I have been to see a lot of massage therapists in my life, but Karen is the first I ever wanted to come to on a regular basis.  With her knowledge, skill, and compassion, she really is the best!!
