What Our Clients are Saying

I had been getting massages here once a month prior to COVID, and stopped for nearly a year as we all adjusted to the new normal. Late last month, after my neck kinked out for the 100th time, I took a chance and booked a COVID safe massage here. I am in the high risk group as I am immune compromised, and I felt 100000% safe getting body work done here -- so much so that I now go in once a week for acupuncture and a massage. The staff is INSANELY kind, professional, and caring. Everyone has a mask on at all times and, not only do they keep their windows open, they also have a hospital grade air purifier on throughout your entire appointment. They take your temperature at the door and inform you they will be washing their hands before they make any physical contact. I have gotten massage work done with both Sara and Denise and both have been FANTASTIC -- after a year of neglect, my tense WFH shoulders/neck are finally loose and nearly pain free. I had never done acupuncture work before, and Catherine has 100% made me a convert. I have TMJ and was complaining of daily tension headaches. After just our 2nd session, these headaches are gone and my bottle of Ibuprofen has been retired. I cannot recommend Catherine and her magic needles enough.

Had the best experience at The Body Bar, and I’m really particular as I worked at spas. Wonderful massage therapists here.

What Our Clients are Saying

Amazing life changing work. I received acupuncture treatment from Catherine as a freshman in college. She improve my internal energy and recommended lifestyle changes allowing me to focus on school and lead a healthy life. I owe my good grades to the amazing work by Catherine.

What Our Clients are Saying

Not sure why I waited 57 years for a therapeutic massage, but that was amazing! I have been seeing Catherine and Stephen for acupuncture for many years now, which has literally changed my life. All great! I have battled severe eczema and asthma since early childhood. The healthy transformation has brought tears of joy to my family. Catherine had been recommending the massage therapy and I have been slow to sign up. I should not have waited. The warmth, care, compassion and healing energy that was first cultivated by Stephen and Catherine's acupuncture has blossomed throughout The Body Bar's amazing staff of healers. Again, yesterday with Lulu's amazing therapeutic massage, I am truly blessed to know you all. Thank you!

What Our Clients are Saying

I’ve been going to The Body Bar since 2018, when I was pregnant with my son and needed someone versed in prenatal technique; I was so happy with the treatment that I continued going after he was born. Within the last two years I was diagnosed with an unusual form of chronic migraine and fibromyalgia that’s tricky to treat because the wrong technique can cause worse flares, but everyone at the Body Bar has been able to bring me relief—as well as compassion. I’m compelled to write a review today because the therapist I was seeing for awhile moved on, and the new therapist I saw, Lorraine, is an angel in the flesh. I actually got off the table with ZERO pain—something I haven’t felt in years. I could barely keep myself from weeping with joy—and I say that without hyperbole. And now, a few hours later, my body still hasn’t locked back up, and frankly I’m in awe. I didn’t know this level of relief was possible, that a life without even a low hum of pain could exist. I have had nothing but positive experiences at the Body Bar and would highly, highly recommend anyone with chronic pain to try this place out. It’s clean, it’s professional, and the therapists they recruit offer a variety of techniques and therapies, so chances are, you’ll find someone who can bring you the relief you need. I took a hiatus early in the pandemic, but I feel safe here and that the therapists are also provided with a safe environment in which to work their magic, which I believe deserves a shout-out of its own. I am grateful for this place and hope that this review will encourage others with similar problems to give it a go.
