Massage Studio of Philadelphia

Laura and Briana are excellent! Both are very skilled, smart, intuitive, professional, caring, calming, and helpful. After each of the three 60-minute deep tissue sessions I have had at the studio (1 with Briana, 2 with Laura), I was given plenty of time to return myself "to earth", drink a cup of water, and ask questions. Laura has also shown me a few simple and useful light neck and back stretches to help ease tension.
(I have found that it's best to request appointments at least several days in advance, and have a few options of date/time in mind. Don't expect same day appointments. There is only 1 table, and 1 therapist working at a time. I'd recommend either therapist.)

Truthfully, the greatest hour of my life. I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and no drug, therapy, diet or doctor relaxes my condition like Laura. She's extremely knowledgable and well researched. Added bonus, she's the fucking shit!

Laura's massages are truly restorative. During our time together, Laura brought me into a state of deep relaxation with her thoughtful music, careful conversation, and delightful attitude. Her personality is joyful - and it spread through her hands and into my muscles! I requested that my massage be focused on my calves and traps. She not only took perfect care of my requests, but worked the associated muscles that were pulling on those tight spots! She taught me very much about how the things bothering me are connected and how I can help myself, too. A true healer, you'll be delighted and book a second session right away!

Laura provides great massages. Each time I have received a treatment it was nothing short of relaxing and stress relieving. My back gets tight pretty easily and every time she gets the knots out. Highly recommend Massage Studio

I've been receiving treatment from Laura every other week for a couple of months now. I think this is the first time I've ever felt like getting a massage has actually been therapeutic. She does a fantastic job of zeroing in on the areas where I have problems (lower back injury) and making them feel like new again. Highly recommend.

I've been receiving therapeutic massage from Laura for over a year now and it has made a huge difference in my life. I found Laura through her professional organization, as recommended to me by the person I'd been receiving regular body work from previously, but who moved out of town. My previous massage therapist recommended Laura because she believed Laura's work would be very similar to hers. And yes, Laura's work is just what I was looking for -- a truly therapeutic massage (not a "fluff" massage). Laura works as deeply as I need her to work, and I knew from the moment she started to work on my body the first time that I was in good hands (literally). She knows the body very well, and draws upon her wide knowledge to work in whatever way suits the specific state of my body on that day. She remembers from massage to massage the particularity of my individual body, always checks in first to see how my body is feeling on that day, and addresses those areas/issues. Not only is her work stellar and CONSISTENT, Laura is also personable, friendly, always professional, reliable and trustworthy. I am so grateful to have found her. I don't know where my body would be without Laura.
