My husband recommend this place. Booking was easy and I was able to get a reservation quickly. I had neck and shoulder pain. My therapist was Olive and she was absolutely the best. I came out as a new person and felt like hundreds of pounds of weight is off of my shoulders. Over the years, I been to many massage spas ranging from mid to very high level 7 star resorts and this one is probably the best experience I had. Olive is very skilled, friendly, and best at what she does. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a solid experience.

Olive was amazing! I got the combo massage since I love massages but have had some recent neck and shoulder pain. I also just started working out again so I was super tight from head to toe. She's very sweet and professional and packs some serious strength in her hands! Highly recommend and can't wait to come back!!

I just finished a 90-minute massage at Olive’s Wellness. Olive is an extremely talented and experienced therapist. She has clearly studied and worked hard so she can treat people well and help them feel better. In more than 20 years of traveling the globe and receiving many different modalities of massage, I have never experienced anyone who projects the kind of healing energy she does. She has extremely strong hands and uses them with a technique and rhythm that deepen the relaxation and leave you feeling better afterward. I highly recommend Olive.
