Her interaction through the entire process was great- from getting to know me and what my concerns were, to answering questions. Enjoy specialized barefoot bodywork by a master Ashiatsu therapist with 13 years of experience massaging with feet. My feet apply deep gliding strokes and compression with seamless transitions. Several strokes are head-to-toe giving your body a sense of being reconnected to itself.

I'm Shellee, owner and sole practitioner here at The Massage Pad. I love bringing peace and relaxation to the world. I'm a WA State Licensed Massage Therapist since 2003, with more than 17,000 hours of massage experience and training. It's my 16th year in private practice on Lake Bellevue. I have a Master Level certification in Ashiatsu Deepfeet Bar Therapy barefoot massage, and an intra-oral massage endorsement.
Shellee remembers all of my preferences. She provides stellar massage and is excellent at tailoring the experience each time for whatever specific issues I want to address. The video above gives a glimpse of Ashiatsu Deepfeet Bar Therapy. It is a Swedish style deep tissue massage given with the feet.
Discovering the benefits of essential oils has been like discovering a gold mine! It started with my search to find a natural way to alleviate back pain. With Shellee's guidance, I now have a selection of Doterra oils for specific purposes. Peppermint and eucalyptus are my go to for pain and inflammation.
Massage offers a competitve edge for sports players, singers, or your everyday employee seeking more energy and focus. Gain awareness of your body, and a feeling of balance and wholeness, which allows you to be nicer to your body by realizing and then lessening it's limits. Hydrotherapy, the use of heat or cold, adds to the benefits of massage.
Ample, free parking awaits. Road construction on 120th is complete in front of The Massage Pad! Please note that there is still construction on 120th to the North of Bel-Red Road, and on NE 12th toward downtown Bellevue. The suite is#112, first door on the right when you enter the building from the side closest to The Crab Pot.

Shellee did a great job at making my first time getting a massage comfortable and enjoyable. She was professional and the environment was relaxing. I left feeling great and I would recommend it to anyone.

By far the best massages that I’ve ever had. It is clear that Shellee has trained extensively and is a true professional. She is also incredibly warm and caring. Looking forward to my next visit!

WOW! Relaxing atmosphere is great but holy smokes that massage therapist! So skilled! She performs absolutely amazing massage, offers free aromatherapy, and does cupping as well! If you want super deep tissue, she can even walk on your back with skill. I seriously have never had a better massage...

Superb massage. My husband is a chiropractor and I get massages many other places but I always come back to Shellee because she is so talented and gives the best relaxing massage ever. She gets my highest recommendation!

I already appreciated Shellee's work and since my last review I needed auto accident massage, and also massage to help knee surgery recovery. I'm feeling so much better thanks to her deep tissue massages, especially to break down scar tissue post-surgery.

The far infrared sauna massage is awesome! I absolutely love how she can massage my body while it is warm. It feels like I get twice the massage time because she can bypass the muscle warm-up part of the massage since the far infrared sauna gets me toasty in no time! If you've never tried this therapy you really owe it to yourself

Seriously, the best masseuse EVER! First, she takes the time to find out why you are needing a massage and how she can best help you. Shellee is very professional and respectful of the client. Her office is warm and very relaxing. We have recently moved away from King County and I miss seeing Shellee. I haven't found anyone as good as her.

I have been seeing Shellee for over 3 years now, and I don't plan on stopping any time soon. If you've seen my previous review, I've stated that Shellee has MAGIC HANDS....well, you have to know this as well...she has MAGIC FEET too!

The Ashiatsu is my new favorite. Nice, even, deep pressure and, as usual, tailored to your needs "a la Shellee." Perfect every time. I'm so relaxed with Shellee that sometimes I fall asleep before she even walks in to the room.

There is NO REASON to not make an appointment with Shellee. Right now. Trust me, you won't regret it.

I will preface this by saying that I have had a membership at Massage Envy for several years, so between that and getting many massages when on vacation, I have had a lot of massages over the years.

I came to Shellee because my dad couldn't stop raving about his new massage therapist. I really thought I knew what a decent massage was, so I had to see for myself. I stand corrected. I've had two massages here so far, and they were the best two of my life, by far. I strongly suggest a 90 minute session. My last one included hot stones and aromatherapy and it was amazing.

Shelle is great. The massage really helped my back pain and after a long week this was the perfect way to relax and get my body feeling better and relaxed.

Shellee gives an awsome ahshiatsu massage, she adds in many extra soothing touches, might be hot or cooled stones, aromatherapy, always feels like a caring present experience.

She is focused on you the entire time in a way that many therapists are not able to do. She does not talk your ear off so you can relax and drift away.

As for deep pressure, the ahshiatsu massage she gives can give you as deep of a massage as you would ever want. She does this while making it a very flowing, relaxing experience.

Highly reccommend.

I have been a fairly regular customer at the Shellee's Massage Pad for several years. Shellee has a unique ability to hear my feedback, even when I feel that I am not communicating it succinctly. As a result, each massage is even better than the previous one.

Shellee is well grounded and has a serving soul, the room is nice, clean and warm. Her massages are thorough in the sense that yes, every decent and proper cm will be covered in oil. If you are looking for a spa massage and want to be fully coated in oil that you stick to the sheets I would recommend going. However, the touch is light and finger tips are still too prominent that it can get uncomfortable (even for such a light touch) there are also quite a few technical problems (especially working in the neck area) and I was quite concerned that some of my cervical vertebras might end up pushed
