Alcaraz Therapeutic Massage

One of the best massages that I have had thus far! I have been going to Alcaraz every week since being in my second trimester and now at 38 weeks I saw Veronica again. She just knew exactly where to massage and what body parts to spend time on. It was so relaxing and made me feel like a brand new person!

I don’t know what kind of magic she did on me, but I felt like I was in a daze when I left. The best massage I’ve had in a while! The perfect amount of pressure and she relieved my knots without grinding on them uncomfortably. I will definitely be returning.

Thankful for this place. I've had nothing but amazing experiences here with each massage therapist I've had. So much pain and stress relief. Highly recommend.

This is a great place to have a therapeutic massage. I have already booked my next appointment.

The women who work here are true healers. Not only are they skilled in releasing tension from your muscles, but I also felt my energy being moved and rebalanced when veronica massaged my head! I can’t wait to go back!

Oh my goodness. I am SO grateful that I took the plunge to see Maria. She is absolutely fantastic at bodywork and is so knowledgeable. She took a good amount of time to understand where I was experiencing pain & stiffness while also doing incredible job of translating that exactly into what needed work. She discussed stretching techniques for me, she worked on muscles I didn't know we're stiff, she loosened up the fascia in my back in order to get to the muscles. Oh and her pressure accuracy is phenomenal, she knew where I could handle more pressure, and she checked in with me all of the time.

I have been seeing Maria, the owner, for about 10 years and followed her when she opened Alcaraz Therapeutic Massage. Her and Annuel are highly skilled, intuitive massage therapists and get to the root cause of the pain or injury.

My first time ever getting a massage and I will never look back. Thank you Maria and Annuel for making my experience life changing. My body feels so much better after every visit!

There are not enough good things I can say about this place!!!! Maria and her team are incredible! I had a pulled muscle that was really bothering me and after one hour with Maria I I feeling amazing! She has incredible pressure, she understands biology and how the human body works together, she uses different methods such as cupping which REALLY helped!!! I left literally as happy as could be!! Also, Maria and her team are just incredible people and make you feeling like family!! What are you waiting for?! BOOK NOW! Haha

Things that I love about this place:
1. They accept insurance
2. Easy

I've been going to Maria (the owner) for about 10 years now. She really knows my body and can target areas that typically cause me problems. She also does cupping, which a lot of massage therapists don't know how to do.

Maria Foster has been my true savior in helping to alleviate my neck, shoulder and lower back pain for three years. She is a gifted and intuitive masseuse who knows exactly which stiff muscles need to be worked, with just the right amount of pressure. I highly recommend her!

Maria made my muscles feel better than I ever knew that they could feel! She is incredibly intuitive, insightful, and one of the warmest people that I have ever met. I will be entrusting her for all my massages in the future. Booking is online and super easy, and I cannot recommend her enough!

Annuel was absolutely wonderful!! I was recently in a car accident. She was very attentive and did an excellent job making my neck and back feel a million times better. I will definitely be back!

I've been seeing Maria for over 3 years now- first at Elements Greenlake and now at her own place. As another reviewer noted, I will follow her wherever she goes, she is fantastic. She uses a variety of techniques (cupping, stretching, massage, etc.) and is sort of a massage-physical therapy hybrid with outstanding results. She is also very intuitive and learns to read your body to figure out what needs work (as an example, she "released" my soaz muscles (deep abdominal) to help ease lower back pain, though I had no idea they were so tight). I'm now recovering from spinal

Maria uses her hands, elbows, and some devices to perfection to soothe and relax tight muscles. Maria adjusts the massage treatment according to your needs and i always feel lighter, more relaxed, and happier afterwards.

I have gotten lots of massages everywhere in the world and Maria is one of the two best practitioners. The other one is also from seattle area but retired.

I sent my mom to Maria and she agrees with me. Rates vary depending on how much time u need. You should call and say that you are a first time client.

Maria is knows how to work! She really gets into the sore spots. I had some hip and leg issues and she was a miracle worker -- focusing on areas I had never thought to stretch! I highly recommend her as she listens and is attentive to your own needs. It is a perfect combo of relaxation and therapy for your tired muscles.
