"My experience with Barbara was like no other. I have autoimmune issues for 10 years that I never got much relief from. Then I got diagnosed with Cancer. I had one appointment with Barbara and I could immediately see I was in the right hands. She not only gave me some relief to my symptoms but her magic hands and knowledge now give me hope that I can heal. I will forever be grateful! Looking forward to future appointments to see even more improvement.
Thank you Barbara for doing what you do! You're amazing!"

"I've worked with Barbara a few times and have now made regular massages with her a part of my ongoing healing plan. One of the things I liked immediately is that asks thoughtful questions, listens carefully, and tailors the therapy to me as an individual. Additionally, she has a very healing touch. I've come to understand that a big part of the healing process is being able to achieve a state of deep, complete relaxation. That is why I will continue to go back. I leave there feeling totally relaxed and stress free every time. "

"Your Gifted Hands and spirituality embraced Maggie mentally and physically. She felt renewed by your touch and even though it didn't last long it was still the gift of giving. It's wonderful that you can give the gift of well being and make that person feel healed as you did Maggie. You made Maggie feel as if she weren't broken."

"When my mother was going through chemotherapy for Ovarian Cancer her body was tired and frail. I decided to get her a massage and Barbara came highly recommended. Barbara came over and gave my mother a massage that changed her world. Barbara was gentle, caring and uplifting. Barbara's gentle massage loosened up my mother's fatigued muscles, relieved stress, comforted my mom and made her feel wonderful. I highly recommend a massage for any cancer patient to relive the fatigue and make them feel comforted, especially with Barbara!"
