How our community is feeling
Real words from people who came in with stubborn pain and left moving freely.
Monica came to my house since I couldn’t get to the clinic. She helped with my shoulder pain and I avoided a steroid injection — cupping, massage, and the right stretches gave me my mobility back.

Monica relieved my recurring sciatica after just one massage. Nothing else had worked, but her treatment did. Now I always look forward to seeing her at pickleball events.

Years of computer work left my hands in constant pain. Monica not only eased the discomfort but also taught me how to care for my body to prevent it from coming back.

Posted on Google pat byrne Thank you. Felt some muscle release for upper & lower back & R&L shoulder area. Each visit helps a little more. It was 1 month since last visit & feeling some relief the next day. PatPosted on Google Crystal Dos Santos Monica was amazing she came to my house for the session since I wasn't able to visit the clinic. She helped me with my shoulder impingement pain. Thankfully since I was able to avoid getting a steroid injection after doing a session with Monica. She showed me which stretches and exercises I should do to help reduce my pain. She did an excellent job with the cupping and massage therapy to help my mobility. 5 stars for her professionalism, kindness, and she is such a wealth of knowledge. Thanks again!Posted on Google jazmine simpson Monica is a pro at what she does. My body always feels relieved after each visit. All tension is released & i’m no longer in pain. If you haven’t already done so, book now!Posted on Google Aisha Williams I cannot say enough about Monica and the impact she has had on my life. Working with her has truly been a life-changing experience for me—physically, emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually. She came highly recommended by someone I trust who knew I had spent years searching for answers. By that point, I had seen countless doctors and specialists, tried many different treatments, and had just about every test imaginable. After three years of living with chronic pain and having my hopes raised and dashed more times than I can count, I honestly didn’t have much hope left. From the very beginning, Monica really listened—and she continues to listen. That alone meant so much after feeling like I had been through the medical system so many times. She is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about her work. At the same time, she is realistic and practical in a way that I truly appreciate. She meets you where you are and works with you to find solutions that actually fit into your life and schedule. The experience has been incredible. I am still working with Monica, but I am no longer living in chronic pain—something I wasn’t sure would ever be possible again. That feels nothing short of miraculous to me. I wanted to write this review now because I am so deeply grateful for the care, dedication, and expertise she brings to her work. Monica has made an extraordinary difference in my life, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.Posted on Google Lisa Liang My experience w Monica has been nothing but spectacular. I experienced reoccurring sciatica ever since i started playing pickleball. I’ve tried normatecs and hydromassage machines to help alleviate the pain, but have not been successful. But after one massage from her, it never came back. Now i always look forward to seeing Monica at pickleball events. Her massages work. Her hands are magic. I highly recommend giving it a try to see for yourself.Posted on Google Josephine Leiva Love her! She has helped with my on going issue in my hands due to years of working on a computer. Educating and guiding me on how to take better care of my body . Highly recommend!Posted on Google Ilana Koka Monica is amazing!! I loved my initial session with her, she was so thorough in her exam and it was the first time I was educated on how certain functions work and should work in my body. The cupping and scraping felt absolutely amazing. It was so relaxing, and Monica was so gentle and supportive. I appreciate that her work is about so much more than feeling good. it’s getting your body to work with you. I cannot recommend a session with Monica enough! As humans in bodies, I think it’s imperative that we know how to best work with our bodies and give our bodies what we need to have total body wellness! Thank you so much Monica. I cannot wait to come back in and see you soon!Posted on Google Violeta Obrera Monica is knowledgeable AND has a magic touch. As a hairstylist and someone who deals with chronic anxiety, she made me feel lighter with just one session. Not only did the session itself far exceed my expectations - she also gave me tools to continue to protect my body and instructions on to be mindful of how I hold tension. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to be under her care/expertise and I look forward to continue this journey with Monica.Posted on Google Jeni Corso Monica is incredible at her craft.
