I have struggled for many years with neck and shoulder pain and can tell you that it is almost impossible to find someone who is able to relieve my pain with the pressure i need. This was by far one of the best massages i have ever received. Don't get me wrong, it was incredibly painful but that what you need sometimes you make sure you are really getting into all of the knots and trapped nerves. Her technique was very different but i thoroughly enjoyed the feeling 2 days later when i could feel my whole posture has changed and the pain had gone.
