The most common type of massage is Swedish massage therapy. It involves soft, long, kneading strokes, as well as light, rhythmic, tapping strokes, on topmost layers of muscles. This is also combined with movement of the joints. By relieving muscle tension, Swedish therapy can be both relaxing and energizing.
Therapeutic massage is best for the targeting of painful, stiff "trouble spots" in your body. It uses slow, deliberate strokes that focus pressure on layers of muscles, tendons, or other tissues deep under your skin. Though less rhythmic than other types of massage, deep tissue massage can be quite therapeutic -- relieving chronic patterns of tension and helping with muscle injuries, such as back sprain.

Her location is NOT IN ACORN ALLEY-its in a walkup right on East Main St a bit further down right after the toy shop!
I had one of the best massages here, and I've been massaged in the best spas in the US. Sue has the hands of an angel, perfect pressure and a soothing atmosphere. I'm coming back ASAP-

Gave 3 stars bc sue was really nice & as helpful as she could be but I dont want ppl to spend money they dont have esp. Right now with everyone being out of work .like the other reviews this def. Isn't a knot busting massage it's just a slight relaxation. I told her more pressure but I'm just not sure shes able to provide that which is completely ok but people should know before coming bc massage therapy isn't cheap unfortunately. This is more so for older people who just need an hour of relaxation.. it's not gonna be a knot busting relief massage.. maybe it was an off day but I figured I'd look

My fiancé and I went in for 30 minute massages, and she worked on both of us for the full 30 minutes! Sue was so kind. I have never felt more relaxed than I did during my massage. She started each of our massages by asking what areas we wanted her to focus on, and she spent the entire half hour working on the areas we mentioned. She took the time to make sure we were each comfortable during our massages. Very hygienic place, calming music, and affordable prices. We will definitely be coming back! 😊

Sue is a considerate person but her massage itself didn't really do anything to help my muscle tension. I'm an athlete who's prone to knots and pulled muscles and have been looking for a new massage therapist so I took a gamble here but turns out this is more of a "general relaxation" massage for older people rather than the kind of knot busting, deep pressure massage that leaves the long-lasting changes in muscles I was looking for.
edit: Despite what the owner claims below the massage was NOT free.
