"90 minute massage was an excellent value. Carressa was great at working the knots out in a relaxing way. "

"I LOVE Carressa, she is wonderful. She really gives my body the treatment that I need."
"Professional and personalized massage, consistently."
"Caressa was wonderful! Also, lovely calm atmosphere."
"Able to get an appointment on the weekend and the therapist understood what my body needed for the sports I play."
"Amazing massage, very clean & calming atmosphere"
Carressa helped me with some head neck and shoulder tension caused by the residuals of a nasty headache. From the moment she started working on my lumbar area of my back I felt the tension easing up in my shoulder area. I loved the work Carressa did in my rhomboids, trapezius and especially my deltoids. I felt like a new person after getting off of her table."
"Carressa (the therapist) was very skilled and did an outstanding job."
"Carressa knows exactly what I need each time. I’m in Heaven each time she massages my 75-year-old body. I come in with muscle pain and feel relief for days. I highly recommend joining."
"Professional talented massage therapist"
"The best massage therapist I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with in 25 years of receiving massage! Carressa, is skilled in many different modalities, knows so much about the human body and how it works, and lastly has the energy of a healer, which is equally as important as the first two points of skill that she possesses!"

I learned a variety of techniques such as deep tissue, prenatal and sports massage, which I apply in my massage sessions depending on the requirements and preferences of the client.

Testimonials

"Kelly is a true professional and always does a great job. He really listens to your concerns and has the technical expertise to accommodate your needs."
"Kelly is fabulous. He has such an incredible way of finding exactly where the problems are and communicates in such a way that it feels really collaborative. It's like having someone to partner with me to address my back issues. I'm so grateful to have this available to me and would highly recommend Elements to everyone!"
"Massage was just dynamic in all aspects ... gentle hands, sensitivity & a calming quiet voice"
"Kelly is hands down the best massage therapist at Elements, & arguably in Marin. "
"Deep tissue Massage from Kelly and although painful as I expected it's been a few days and I'm feeling much better, looking forward to the next session."
"A very good therapist. Kelly was wonderful and really helped my acute back pain."
"I loved everything about it! The staff at the front desk was very warm & welcoming. Kelly, my massage therapist, asked enough questions to enable him to tailor my massage to the areas that needed it, but wasn't overly chatty. The facility is spotless and the ambience serene & calming. I recommend Elements Massage regularly!"
"Kelly was a great therapist who discussed my needs before beginning my massage and talked with me through certain elements of it. It was a very relaxing and healing experience."
"Kelly, my Massage Therapist, is AMAZING. He has a way of being so gentle, but always finds spots I'm not even aware of until he works on me. He is probably the best deep tissue massage therapist I've ever had. He is so intuitive, knowledgeable, & has great suggestions for things I can do at home. If I won the lottery - I would have unlimited Kelly massages!"
"Kelly is an incredibly knowledgeable therapist who takes the time to make sure he is meeting your needs rather than just going through the motions of a routine."
"My massage with Kelly was great! He hit all the tense spots with deep enough pressure to relieve them."
"All of the massages I have received from Kelly have been wonderful. He is very attentive to my requests and offers just the right amount of pressure. I like to talk during my massages and he has also been a wonderful listener. I leave the massage feeling very soothed physically (and emotionally). :)"
"The staff was warm and accommodating. Kelly, my therapist, listened to my needs and addressed them perfectly."
"They tailored my massage to what I like not what they like. They were super flexible in getting me an appointment. Kelly, the masseur, was fantastic! Best foot massage I've ever had."

As a healer Kelly has experienced what it is like to overcome illness.  Massage helped in his personal healing experience.  Because he felt such results he wanted to give back and to share with people who are in need of pain and stress relief.

Testimonials

"She's the new Stephanie! I loved the stretches."
"True relaxation and reinvigorating experience."
"Great atmosphere and Al-Grace was great."
"Al-Grace’s massage was just what I need — perfect balance of firm and deep pressure, incredible stretches incorporated throughout the massage — even got my stubborn shoulder to ease and trust during the stretches. Glad I upgraded to the AromaRitual and Himalayan Salt Stone massage — the eucalyptus and heat were just what I needed. Definitely going to book with Al-Grace again and again."
"I feel like my preferences were paid considerable attention and Al-Grace checked in at various points to make sure that everything was comfortable and relaxing for me. I feel like the monthly membership has a lot of flexibility and benefits for the cost."
"The massage therapist that provided my session is a tremendous talent, executing the best massage I have ever had."
"Massage therapist Al Grace is excellent. and front desk staff is consistently warm and helpful. :)"
"I was going in with tremendous pain. She took out the knots with precision."
