For almost a year I was having swelling and pain in my body. It was to the point that every movement was met with discomfort. After three sessions at Bodhi Tree I have had great improvement. The infrared treatment really made a difference in the level of stiffness in my hands and legs. I didn't realize how much discomfort I was in until I found myself sleeping during the massage. The treatment and professionalism was outstanding. I would give this 10 stars.

Theresa made my first experience with lymphatic massage absolutely wonderful. She listened and explained everything clearly. The space was quiet and clean and super relaxing. She was very gentle and I felt like I could have fallen asleep. I’m definitely going back!

I have been seeing Theresa weekly for 5 months now. I had seen 2 lymphatic drainage massage therapists before her who just weren’t right for me. Theresa is professional, conscientious, and caring. Her prices are very reasonable and her massages are sooooo relaxing. When I first started seeing her my lymph system was sluggish and stuck and I experienced swelling and pain. It’s flowing again and I’m so thrilled to have found her!

Ive been dealing with lymphedema for the past 15 years and had no success keeping the swelling down. I went to Bhodi Tree to get leg compressions and the results were amazing! My leg looks like a normal leg again! It feels really good to be able to wear shorts with confidence and not have people staring. Thank you Theresa and I look forward to seeing how good my leg can get!
