“Nanci is
brilliant. Everyone that I have recommended to her has returned to me with
similar statements: "She knows her stuff", "I felt incredible
relief'", 'I just love her, and thank you for recommending me to
Nanci". From my perspective, she is technically profound, intuitively a
genius, and her heart is wide open.” April 6, 2011

“Nanci is a wealth
of knowledge with a strong intuition making both a thorough and effective
massage. Instead of forcing the body to heal, her gentler approach works with
the body. Very impressive work! She really makes massage her own art form!”

Nanci brought my
arm back from the dead. I unequivocally recommend Nanci to friends who have
little aches or significant pain.
Due to herniated
discs in my neck, I’d lost the feeling in my right thumb, other fingers were
numb and I’d lost strength in my right arm. My right shoulder was in
excruciating pain and sleeping was a struggle. After visiting the doctor and
physical therapist, I was told that if the discs weren’t aligned soon and
didn’t quit pinching my nerves, the numbing and weakness might become permanent.
Following the physical therapist’s exercises didn’t relieve the pain nor help
with the numbness and I refused to take steroid shots to relieve the tension
around the discs.
Then during a 90
minute session with Nanci, the feeling came rushing back. Before beginning
the massage therapy, Nanci asked probing questions about my pain and
numbness, looked over my posture then began her massage. She took time to
understand my history and my physical posture. It seemed odd that when she
started, she didn’t go straight to the points of pain, but within 30 minutes
I could feel a significant difference. By the time she was actually massaging
the shoulder, arm and hand the pain had diminished significantly. What was
most comforting for me was that I knew the discs quit pinching my nerves and
it was not because of the doctor and not because of the physical therapist;
the pinched nerves were cured by Nanci.
As an avid
cyclist, soccer player and mountain climber, Nanci got my body aligned so
well that I am back doing what I love. Praise and accolades for Nanci’s
knowledge and ability; she put me back in the saddle, back on the soccer
field, back on the mountain and back into a fun and productive lifestyle.
