I have had 5 massages here so far by 4 different therapists and they have all been incredible. If you are concerned about whether one will be better for your needs than another, I would say not to worry, just schedule an appointment and get on with your day. Each therapist brings exceptional and extraordinary skill to the massage, and even the same therapist might have a totally different approach from one massage to the next. If you have chronic tension, knots, pain etc, I HIGHLY recommend that you start seeing these folks on a regular basis. It will do wonders and you are worth it!

I saw Nadia for a neck and back massage and she was outstanding. I feel like Ive gained more motion in my neck and head which has been very helpful. I was able to sleep better and still feel the benefits of the massage.Thank you,Vito Guarnaccia

I have been going to Jessica Mai due to back issues. I did a lot of research before choosing her, including reading other reviews. She is wonderful! Each visit she adjusts the massage based on my current situation. Truly a custom massage. I highly recommend Jessica!

Nicole is very professional and knowledgeable - I got a sports massage, myofascial release and even abdominal work that BLEW MY MIND! Felt so light in the SOAS after and could perform powerlifting better. Highly recommend.

I came to Hands on Health with a long running (several months) pain issue in my right shoulder area. Eventually I went to my doctors office where I received a diagnosis, a rubber band (for exercising, which I did) and a pain medication prescription.Im not keen on pain pills, so that wouldnt work for me. I followed the rubber band exercise regimen but my condition didnt improve. So, I thought Id try massage therapy. It only took about 3 appointments and the difference was amazing. Pain gone, and back to normality. I have started lifting weights again, along with my regular routine of running and ruck marching for fitness.Overall, I cannot recommend this place enough. Straightforward, professional and all the therapists (I have had appointments with 3 different ones) have been brilliant. Five stars.

This is a wonderful place to get a high quality massage that can treat various conditions. Ive only seen Sara but I am certain the therapists are all equally excellent. Also, they are taking a lot of precautions during COVID. Ive never been there when another person is in the waiting room, for example, so you can feel safe.

This review is long overdue and I would give ten stars if I could. I have been seeing Cindy for more than a year now for my neck and shoulder issues. She is very knowledgeable, professional,empathetic and caring. She always makes time to understand how I had been after the last session and knows exactly what to do make me feel better. It’s hard to find someone like Cindy who takes a genuine interest in healing people with impressive massage therapy skills. Also the staff at the reception are pleasant to work with too. I highly recommend Cindy and Hands on Health!

This is the best massage therapy location in Cary and in the RTP area IMHO. I have tried all the big names here. All the therapists here have a medical / chiropractic massage focus. Sara is new to the practice. She is clinical, methodical and meticulous (in a good way). She finds trigger points and knots and takes them all the way up or down stream to fix them. What is really nice is that I dont have to talk at all. I tell her what I want focused on before we start and it is a done deal. No feedback required or guidance needed. I just sit back and let her do her thing. So glad she moved here from Colorado and has found an employer that fits her style.

Hands down would recommend. So many talented therapists paired with a kind staff makes coming here a breeze! I have been seeing Cindy for several months now and have seen incredible results helping my low back pain. Its so wonderful to have someone with healing hands and making progress I can feel!

Tammy G did an excellent job of digging out the knots in my back. She has very strong hands! And I needed the deep work due to sleeping on a bad mattress while on vacation. Ive been impressed with the professionalism at Hands On Health both with the office staff and the therapists.

Review №13

After an extremely stressful weekend, I woke up Monday morning feeling pretty rough. I spoke with one of the owners of Hands on Health, Laura, who managed to fit me into her schedule that day. I am so grateful she did. My shoulder has been a mess for a few months now, impeding my ability to function fully without pain through most of my daily activities.Laura not only helped soother my nervous system, she did an amazing job on my shoulder! I have been able to do more with less pain in the last few days, and Ive been sleeping better, too! In fact, I woke up this morning on my bad side, and it didnt even really hurt like I thought it would when I first sat up.Id also like to give kudos to the professionalism of the front desk staff. My experience overall was very pleasant, and I will certainly be returning when I need to!

Nicole Bermeo is the the BEST massage therapist Ive ever had - and I dont make that comment lightly. Nicole has a sixth sense when it comes to locating the muscles that need attention. I started seeing her because my neck is in a chronic state of pain. Shes been the only one to help alleviate that tension. You can tell that she enjoys her work and I enjoy being a client.

Review №15

Love Tammy Green! Shes awesome, especially if you want a deep tissue massage. She has really helped me deal with chronic neck and shoulder pain, which are often the cause of my migraines. Jean is excellent, as well. Ive been a regular for several years. Highly recommend!

Tammy Campbell is an excellent therapist. She addresses my issues. She gives feedback on what she feels in my body. She applies the right amount of pressure and motion in the various massage movements. Dont think I could be any happier with the treatments I am receiving from Ms. Campbell.

Review №17

I have been getting massages for over 15 years and and am always impressed with an intuitive therapist. I booked a 1-hour medical massage with Jean and she was able to unlock my shoulder that had limited range of motion for 2 months. She even identified a few points in my body that nag me from old injuries that I had not told her about. I was impressed with her knowledge of the human body and her ability to manipulate its condition throughout the massage.

Prior to 7/5/19, I would have given Hands on Health a five star review. In fact, I can’t say enough good things about Charla. She is an excellent massage therapist, very kind, and easy to talk to. I saw her once a month during my pregnancy, and she worked wonders for me. She took her time to work the areas that really needed it, often finding tight/sore areas before I could even point them out. She’s amazing, and I looked forward to seeing her again on 7/5/19, until something came up and I had to reschedule. I called the office the day before, 7/4/19, in the 3 o’clock hour and left a message, asking if I could fill any spots for Charla earlier in the day because something came up in the afternoon. I received a return phone call from Stephanie the next morning. She notified me that I would be charged in full for the appointment because I had not given “24-hour business day notice.” She did not consider Thursday, 7/4/19 to be a business day, so according to her, I should have called prior to 4:30 PM on 7/3/19 to cancel. Nowhere in any paperwork is this indicated. In fact, the contract that I signed asked that you kindly call before 5 PM the day before your appointment, which I did. There is no mention of 24 hours, no mention of business days, and no mention of holidays. (You can also find this information on their website.) Tammy, the owner, emailed me a few hours later and said they called their scheduled customers on 7/3/19 to let them know they were changing their cancellation policy due to the holiday and that cancelations for 7/5/19 must be made 7/3/19. How convenient! Do people check voicemails anymore? Furthermore, that was not described anywhere in my signed contract, and I am not a fan of making up policies in order to steal clients’ money. I replied to her email with this information and asked her to confirm whether she was going to steal my money, because if so, I’d cancel my plans and be there at 4:30 for my appointment. This was at 2:40. I received no response. I’m fact, I received no response until I emailed her again the evening of 7/8/19, three days later. Baby will be here any day, and I was really hoping to see Charla one last time. Tammy replied back the following morning, 7/9/19, to confirm that she was, in fact, stealing my money. This time, her excuse was that when I called the afternoon of 7/3/19, I did not specifically use the word “cancel” when I said that something came up and asked if Charla had any earlier openings I could fill. It was my attempt at being considerate instead of outright canceling with no attempt to reschedule. Tammy‘s decision to make up policies as she goes has cost me the final massage in my package, as well as the money she stole from me. Plus, I am nine months pregnant and could have done without this extra stress in my life. I will let you decide whether she is someone you would like to trust with your health and money.

Denise is a great therapist. She is professional, on time, compassionate and makes sure you are comfortable during the entire session. At checkout there is no wait, your next appointment is scheduled and water is offered to you. I must say that my cupping experience w/ Hands On Health has been rewarding and I leave feeling much better. Thank you Denise

I more than agree with all the other, older reviews. This place has really good therapists if you have some tension issues (and who doesnt) that you really want worked out. The space is definitely not upscale spa, but comfortable. Highly recommended for serious massage work!

I can highly recommend this massage therapy practice. They have very well-traIned therapists. Ive had many of them work on me over the years and always leave feeling good. I like their convenient on-line scheduler and their front desk staff are also very helpful.Update: I just hadnt been feeling great for months. Had a massage with Yolanda Friday and since then have felt the best Ive felt in months!! Ive been going here for many years, scheduling massages on-line with whomevers available when I am. I have never once been disappointed. This is a quality, highly trained and professional practice.

I rarely take time to write reviews on products or services but once in a while you have an experience that is exceptional, worth recognizing, and sharing. A friend suggested I go see Jessica Silverman at Hands on Health Massage Therapy for my continuous shoulder and neck problems. First, their online appointment system is easy and convenient. I can be traveling anywhere and make the appointment online for when I return. You can pick the length of your session and describe what you’re looking for ahead of time. Works perfect for busy professionals on the go. The offices are professional and the atmosphere is calm and relaxing. They clearly take pride and making this a great experience for you whether you’re doing a relaxation massage to pamper yourself, or a regularly scheduled medical massage. In my opinion, all of the above is great but the talent of their massage therapist is where Hands on Health is truly exceptional and stands out from the rest. They make sure to match you with the right therapist for your needs. Their therapists are top-notch with deep skills and knowledge. Finally, they are genuinely interested in making you feel better and getting positive results. Jesse is one of my favorites there. She is a great listener, very knowledgeable and the best hands I’ve had work on me period. She makes every experience a great one and has helped me obtain the best results to date on my condition. It feels like I’m hanging with a friend that I’ve know for many years versus a business transaction. I recognize everyone values different things, but in the days where every business seems to be in a rush to collect your credit card number before knowing your name there are very few places can deliver the complete package and experience the Hands On Health does, and to me, there is no better place for massage therapy experience in the triangle.

Ive been a client of Hands on Health for the past two years for both medical massage and maintenance/destress. Theyve been amazing and have helped me improve my health/sleep, and greatly reduce my stress level.Be warned that they are a bit rough around the edges (one of the part-time hostesses has fur and its not spa style white linen) but I attribute that to putting their time and money into training and retaining the best therapists in town rather than focusing on frills. They have a culture of constantly teaching and improving themselves. Although they can give you a chill out massage, the main thing here is getting tension out of your body so that you feel better the next day and week and month.Ive worked with Laura (extra cost since shes an owner but worth it for very specialized medical massage work), Tammy D, Meredith, and Marcy. They have different styles but are all world class therapists. To be very clear - these are not folks who graduated massage school last month like the large chain you see in strip malls around here.Ive been to other places in town (White Dahlia is quite good especially if youre looking for a spa-like service at a good price) and in hotels across the world. For getting results, Hands on Health stands out above all of them.

I love this place! With the help of Barbara and Charli Im back to running without pain. I went in for issues with my IT bands, lower back, neck and shoulders. I was a mess but the massage therapy coupled with the suggested stretches and exercises and made all the difference. I was miserable before I went to Hands On Health, I hadnt been able to run pain-free in over a year and my neck and shoulder pain was giving me daily headaches. Now, I feel great! Im go grateful to Hands On Health!

Cindy Molnar has been a life saver! I’ve struggled with back pain for a long time due to a car accident I was in when I was younger that left a vertebrae out of place. My pain was getting really bad so my chiropractor recommended I see a massage therapist to get the muscles to loosen up. I started seeing Cindy in the summer of 2015 and we were able to get onto a regular schedule which relieved almost all of my pain! I do kickboxing, which can aggravate my back, so I still see Cindy every three weeks (or more if needed) to get all of my knots worked out. Over the course of the last year she has helped me with back, neck, hip and knee pain. She’s amazing at what she does and I highly recommend her!

I have visited Laura at Hands on Health in Raleigh for a variety of sports injuries since meeting her in 2002. I credit Laura with putting me on the road to complete recovery four times. She has been succesful with massage treatments for my right knee (2002), left shoulder (2006), right shoulder (2008) and left ankle (2009). In each case Laura provided essential therapy and has helped me avoid the surgical suite. Additionally, she has taught me very useful stretching exercises as preparation for tennis matches and power walking. She is an educator at heart, teaching while healing. I highly recommend Laura and her team at Hands on Health in Raleigh & Cary. Key words: sports, injuries, tennis, walking, sports massage, stretching.
