I've tried various yoga classes over the years but have never found one that that is so relaxing yet so invigorating at the same time. Tiffany's classes are the perfect complement to your workout routine, a great way to stretch out and improve flexibility. She has such a positive, fun, and uplifting personality and great tunes as well!

Had to change massage providers recently so I tried Knot Detective and I was very impressed with Rynice. She listens to concerns and applies the right massage technique and pressure the first time! Will be a repeat customer!

My husband and I have had the pleasure of having massages from Michelle for 5 years. I have always been reluctant to share her name in a review because she books out so quickly. :) Michelle recently moved to Knot Detective and we will continue getting massages from her though it will be a little bit of a drive for us. She is hands down, the BEST massage therapist and a wonderful person! Michelle is very conscientious and truly wants you to feel better after her massage.

We had just moved to Austin and were in need of a good place to help work out the kinks/knots of the move. we found knot detective through some research for trigger point therapy and made an appt. I could not have been more happy with the treatment. Katie was the owner and she has a lot of experience on getting the kinks out. She is phenomenal. we really enjoyed our massages and plan on getting more.

you should also.

Happy New Year all

Both Barbara and Katie are incredible....very intuitive- perfect pressure and technique every time ( deep tissue, trigger point). Love everything about this place- good vibe, lighting, heated beds, relaxing music and the massages-- best I've found In Austin

It's all about Dalanda. I typically have a tough time relaxing enough to handle trigger point therapy so I usually just get Swedish at other places. Truth is after the past few massages at The Knot Detective I've had I'm now able to get so relaxed that after the last one I needed some time to come back to Earth after the last massage. Dalanda has released tension in my psoas (a spot that many therapists won't even go near), neck, shoulders, forearms, and hamstrings so far and I'll keep going back.

Dalanda understands muscles and fascia really well. I've worked for

My name is Song Campbell and I have had at least 10 treatments from Tamar over the past few months and she is amazing. I had sciatica a couple weeks ago and she completely took care of it in 2 treatments. It has not come back and i feel great. Another time I had tripped and fell on my knee about 8 mo before I met Tamar. My knee hurt really bad and I had been limping around for all those months. I had my first session with her and when I walked out of Tamars office and I had no more pain in my knee. I will continue to go to Tamar and value her so much.

Had another great acupuncture session with Tamar last Friday. I told her some current issues i was having with my recent breakouts being a top concern for me. She adjusted what we had been doing and before the session was even over my acne had started to lighten. Five days later and my chin is clearer than it has been in months. Amazing!!!! I look forward to my visits with Tamar and highly recommend her for anyone who is interested in acupuncture!

Katie works miracles with her hands. I was dealing with a shoulder injury for a little over a year. I tried chiropractors, physical therapists, cupping, dry needling, graston, and EMS therapy. None of which helped. I finally decided to see an orthopedic surgeon since I was in constant pain all day everyday. I got a couple of cortisone shots and those only provided temporary relief. At this point I was over the pain and was ready for surgery. I got an MRI and it showed I had a partially torn infraspinatus. They wanted to shave down a bone and move my bicep tendon down. I posted on FB that I was

I have tried a LOT of massage therapists over the years and Katie is one of the best! I just left from a massage and I feel like I am drunk. She has great anatomical knowledge and is skilled at working areas like the piriformis muscle where a lot of therapists struggle because it is a hard to get at muscle. Thank you so much, I will absolutely go back and refer friends.

Love this place! I've had massages from Katie and Rynice multiple times and both were heavenly. Convenient parking, and the space is super clean and has great energy. Love the music selection... not something you always think about when you get a massage! Super friendly and professional :)

Go see Barbara! She is truly a miracle worker. I have chronic headaches, and under her care the tension and headaches melt away! Her skill at massage is paralleled by her kindness and attentiveness to your needs and preferences, both before and during the massage. Her passion for her work is evident--I'm so glad I found her!

The most incredibly effective massage available! I'm training for my first marathon and I was having a lot of hip pain, not only did Chris find the source of the issue and fix it rapidly, she also gave me recommendations for exercises and stretches to prevent further injuries. She was so kind and welcoming and the whole environment was fantastic. Also love that they are open on weekends!

This clinic is getting even more awesome! They just added a new massage therapist named Chris Kimbrough. My husband tried her recently and said she's awesome! We're both very active, do a lot of cross training and running, and I found out she's a serious runner (as in, she shattered the Beer Mile World Record in 2014 and qualified for the Olympic Marathon Trials in 2007---Google it). Crazy! I can't wait to try her out, because she evidently has secret massage skills for running issues.

On the other side of the spectrum, I brought my mom here because she had hip pain. She was

Saturday morning I had enough of a crippling back pain I had been plagued with for two weeks. I was unable to bend over, tie my shoes, pet my dog, or lift anything. I didn't have luck the last time I went for a massage at another place for similar pain, so hunted around via Yelp. Knot Detective is right down the road from my new place and Katie had excellent reviews. I booked with cautious optimism...actually really skepticism. The last girl left me bruised and feeling worse than when I walked in so I thought I was in for the same regret.

However, Katie is pure unicorn magic. I love that

I went to Katie at the Knot Detective since she was located just down the street from where I live. I registered online and filled out a questionnaire about my massage therapy experiences and needs. Once I went in, this helped save time from filling out forms and Katie already knew what I was looking for.

I had a kink in my shoulder blade area, and Katie worked that right now. I had a 1 hour session, but it felt longer than that! Which is awesome, because I had mainly gone to get massages at day spas... and after you fill out forms, talk to the massage therapist about what's going on

I had a massage with Katie at the advice of one of her long term clients. It was really great and I consider myself a massage connoisseur. Katie even accommodated me setting my appointment super early so I could meet with a new client. I really appreciate her taking care of my body and my business! I didn't realize I was so tense but I am so glad I went to see her before all the holiday family time.

I have been getting massages from Katie for years. She is hands down the BEST in Austin. I send all of my friends and family to her to get fixed. As a competitive aerial dancer my body is constantly broken and always in pain. She keeps me moving & flexible and I absolutely couldn't live without her magic hands.

***UPDATE***
I recently had an acupuncture appointment with Brennan Quinn and I couldn't have been more amazed! He has a very unique technique of utilizing electric pulses through the acupuncture needle. It's INTENSE but it's GOOOOOOD! I had scheduled a massage with
