Testimonials

Emily is Phenomenal. I've had Reiki and massage done before but Emily has a special gift. She is professional, has a beautiful space with safe and relaxing vibes, and her work goes beyond just massage - it is true body healing and emotional work. I feel light years lighter and better than before. I highly recommend Emily to anyone who is tired of massage mediocrity and is ready to uplevel their health and well-being.

I have had several massages from Emily. When she opened her office in Spartanburg I was totally willing to drive the hour to see her in her new space. She chose the perfect location to do her healing work, her office is beautiful and tranquil. After leaving her massage office, my body felt completely relaxed. I always sleep great after receiving her massages. I highly recommend Emily. Spartanburg, you are very blessed to have a gifted massage therapist move into your neighborhood.

Emily is professional, friendly, and very good at what she does. She makes you feel at ease and her room has a great ambience. She's a wonderful massage therapist. I will be back!

A relaxing and restorative hour. I can't wait for my next massage!

The hot stone massage was amazing! The combination of massage with the heat of the stones was very relaxing. Emily is very professional. I will look again when I come back to Spartanburg to visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I need to cancel my appointment?

Cancellations without 24-hour notice may result in a charge for your session, as that time has been set aside specifically for you. Please call or go online in advance of 24 hours before your session to cancel or reschedule.

Do I need to be completely undressed for massage?

It is completely up to you, and you should undress to your desired level of comfort. Most clients will undress to their undergarments. Women usually remove their bra, so no straps are in the way of back and shoulder massage.

You will be appropriately draped/covered throughout the massage. Only the area being worked on will be exposed at any given time.

How will I feel after Massage?

You may feel really relaxed, sleepy or even lightheaded. It’s a good idea to move slowly and allow some extra time for your body to continue to relax and fully integrate the benefits of the massage.

Fever
