Vonda is way more than your average massage therapist. She's got magic healing hands and I always leave feeling blissed out. You can tell she geniunely loves what she does. The massage table and linens are of very good quality. She's got an awesome personality and tons of eccentric art. Oh and her bunnies are adorable. The online booking system is easy and straightforward. Always looking forward to my massages with her.

There are so many positive things I can share about Vonda and why she has been my masseuse for the last 12 years. I originally found Vonda through a google search when I was having some back issues. I was not doing well and she agreed to see me. From the very first time I met her she has such a cool vibe to her that even before we started I felt welcomed and at ease.

Her massage room has always comfortable and at a proper temperature. Her massage table is very nice with a firm but comfortable top that supports nicely. She always covers it in nice quality linens that don't have a "commercial" feel to them by being stiff or coarse. They are always soft and relaxed feeling. The oil she uses is her own blend with a subtle soft scent that is soothing and relaxing.

Her choices of lighting and background music is always an ideal environment for relaxing. She also has excellent lavatory facilities across from her massage studio to use at your leisure. In regards to the Massage itself I must say that I have used the services of many people over the years and a lot of them were either amateurs or just trying to get to the next client. Vonda doesn't book back-to-back-to-back.

She provides an experience that is unrushed and I always feel like I'm her only client. In all the years I have accessed her services I also never felt like she was going through a routine. She is excellent at letting you really express your areas of problems or concern and then addressing them effectively. She is receptive to working with you at your comfort level and is always accommodating to your needs.

I could continue to wax on about what a great experience it always is for another few paragraphs but here's the bottom line. I have utilized her services for over a dozen years without question or contemplation. When I have been out of town and procured the services of others I always judge them by the experience I have with Vonda. If you choose to treat yourself properly and avail yourself to her services I can assure you that your time spent with her will be more valuable than the mere cost. Pierre Petuya

Have been seeing Vonda for a while now and I absolutely love her. I'm picky when it comes to my massage therapist and she's the best I've found in Sacramento (and I've been everywhere). 10/10

My experience with Vonda has been nothing short of excellent. She is very knowledgeable and understands how to target troubled areas in your body without making you feel uncomfortable. All sessions are tailored towards your specific goals. I have tried many professional massage places and by far Vonda is the best. I highly recommend!

My experiences with Vonda have all been exceptional. She is friendly and open and listens when I describe what's happening in my body. She provides great relief for my neck and shoulder tension that stem from working long hours at a computer and also helps relieve the other aches and pains that I pick up along the way.

Vonda is an excellent massage therapist. For the past year, she has brought me relief from my neck and low back issues. Her homie is welcoming and comfortable and she always greets me with a smile. The heated massage table pad is delightful in the winter. Vonda follows all the Covid protocols which I really appreciate. She is the BEST.

Today was my first appointment here and I must say her hands are magic! I deal with daily chronic jaw (clenching ), neck and shoulder pain with associated migraines and balance issues. She made sure to check if I was comfortable with the pressure she was applying which is super important to me. After my appointment today, my week long headache is gone and I was actually able to go out snd get things done without a struggle!

I love the location, her home is super comforting with a lot of cute decor. At the end she even gave me a glass of water, something I always forget after a good massage. Thanks Vonda! I'll be returning soon!

Vonda is the best massage therapist I have seen! I am a plus size girl and she made me feel completely comfortable in my own skin. Her studio is set up in her home which adds another level of comfort as well. She asked which areas I'd like to focus on and is receptive to feedback. I recommend her and will definitely be back!

Vonda is the best massage therapist I've ever seen! I've been seeing her for a few months now and she has helped me immensely get back into the gym. She provides a very relaxing ambient that makes you feel right at home. She definitely listens to your needs and attends to them in a courteous and professional manner. If you're in search of a neuromuscular/trigger point/ restorative massage I highly recommend her!

Came to her with extreme tightness in my neck and back due to many years of injuries. After 3 sessions, the majority of my pain was gone and my quality of life has improved dramatically. I would highly recommend her

I highly recommend Vonda! My first time. I woke up one morning not being able to walk on my left foot. It was painful & I couldn't put my heal down on the floor. I was walking on my toes! She was very sympathetic & caring and I felt she knew just what to do. Vonda was able to get me in right away. She applied pressure to just the right spots on my feet using which reduced the pain & ending with a wonderful foot massage.

I never felt so relaxed! I'm happy to say I am able to put my heal down normally.still a little sore but I'm very pleased with the results. I will definitely be back for a full body massage. Thank you Vonda!

Hands down one of the best massages I've had. Never had to request an adjustment of pressure, she knew exactly how much was needed. Noticeable improvement of circulation in my hands and feet within the first couple days. I cannot recommend any higher in Sacramento at this point. Go see Vonda!

I started seeing Vonda in Feb 2020 with my first pregnancy. Here we are in June 2021 and i'm still seeing her (but for my second pregnancy! ) Vonda communicates promptly and makes every accommodation needed. i am so thankful to find her because not only does she help relieve all my aches and pain, she is a great listener and i always leave feeling like a new person. Please do yourself a favor and book a massage with Vonda!

I have seen Vonda twice now and was very pleased with her service. I did quite a bit of searching online before booking my initial appointment. She had great reviews and did not disappoint. I am a big woman and was not sure I would get a good deep tissue massage or be welcomed. No reviews or advertisements discussed if they specialized in seeing larger size clients.

To my relief Vonda was perfect. Her space was calming and she was welcoming. She was body positive and applied a good amount of pressure really addressing my lower back and sciatica issues. I can't recommend her enough.

I love how a good massage feels, but when you find someone great, You don't have to leave disappointed! Vonda makes you feel so comfortable and right at home. She is so professional, kind, and caring. I love how she listens to what my needs are. If I ask for more pressure she doesn't hesitate to give exactly what I want! Vonda is well informed of the muscles and in tuned with what the body needs. If I could give more than five stars, I would! Try her out she's amazing!
