Wow! This was an amazing experience! Massage therapist Matthew Harmon was absolutely wonderful! He created a safe and extremely calming atmosphere and was extremely knowledgeable! I have never felt so at ease and relaxed! My back feels infinitely better and my mind and heart feel calmed. My headache of over a week and near constant neck pain is gone! I could not recommend Matthew Harmon enough. Thank you for this truly awesome time! If youre going to get a massage in Northern Colorado, this is the place to go!
My massage with Lauren was maybe one of the best Ive had in I dont know how long!! Im only sad that she is leaving and i wont get the chance to have another massage with her!! Living Arts is a beautiful studio - quiet and peaceful. I loved my experience here so much.
Didn’t get what we paid for & false pricing given… I booked a 90 min couples massage which was listed as $155 on the booking site, but when we paid, that was for one massage. I booked two deep tissue massages, requested deep tissue on my intake form and verbally asked for deep tissue to my therapist before we began. My massage was medium pressure at best but most of it was LIGHT pressure. I even asked THREE separate times during the massage for more pressure. Nothing changed. That’s a total of 6 times asking for what I paid for and not getting it. My boyfriend said his massage was ok / good but we will not be back. Really bummed because we were looking forward to it.
My girlfriend and I both feel like we are mentally and physically better than ever. Jamilyn was heavy handed, but just what I needed. I had no idea this could feel good. I dont want to go to another massage place, I finally feel like myself again. We are incredibly grateful for both of them!
I found a new massage therapist; Lauren, is a very skilled therapist. I experienced the Sarga massage for the first time at her recommendation and it was amazing. Exactly what I needed forsore muscles. Facility is very clean and quiet and tucked away in a Historic building in downtown Fort Collins. Highly recommend!
Its been more than a decade since Ive had a session as helpful as the one I had with Matthew last week. Im a former therapist myself and Ive had A LOT of work done by A LOT of different practitioners over the years and its pretty special when you find that therapist. You know, the one that intuitively just knows where you need attention and goes there in EXACTLY the way you need them to? Where you walk out feeling completely transformed? When you know without question that youre in safe and gifted hands? Thats Matthew. My quest is over and I have found my MT. I couldnt be happier.
Celeste did an amazing job of figuring out what was causing my back pain and how to alleviate it. She also gave me some exercises for home to keep my back limber. The laser treatment was an extra help for my back. She is very skilled and I highly recommend her to everyone.
Jennifer is amazing! The prenatal massage was so soothing. It really helped with my back pain during pregnancy.
Kat was kind, listened well, and was so professional. I’m visiting in town so I’m so grateful she took me for a last minute appt. I felt so relaxed after my massage. Next time I’m in town I’ll definitely book with Kat again.
Just did a couple’s massage with Jamilyn and Kat and I didn’t even realize how much tension I was keeping in my body. My boyfriend and I both feel that we are mentally, emotionally, and physically so much better than we were before. Jamilyn was heavy handed, however it was exactly what I needed. I had NO idea I could feel this good. I don’t want to go to any other massage place, I finally feel like myself again. We’re incredibly grateful for the both of them!
I am a person with hyper mobility, and struggle with chronic neck and shoulder pain. I have tried everything under the sun to find relief, and have wandered all over Fort Collins to find a LMT who understands my pain and can truly help. Finally I found Lauren! She knew right away options we could try to help relieve my symptoms & pain, and she has been fundamental in keeping my pain at ease! I am so grateful I finally found Lauren, her expertise and passion is outstanding! If you are looking for someone who has a mastery in massage and pain management Lauren is your person!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Matta, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Matta truly stands out as someone who deeply cares about her craft and is dedicated to helping others.From the moment we first connected, Mattas genuine enthusiasm and passion for her work were evident. She took the time to understand my needs and provided personalized recommendations that perfectly suited my situation. Her expertise and attention to detail were impressive, ensuring that every aspect of her service was tailored to provide the best possible outcome.What sets Matta apart is her unwavering commitment to excellence. She is not just going through the motions; she is fully invested in delivering top-notch service. Matta’s approach is thorough, thoughtful, and incredibly effective, demonstrating her deep understanding and mastery of her field.Furthermore, Mattas warm and caring personality made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. She goes above and beyond to ensure her clients feel supported and valued, creating a genuine connection that is rare to find. It’s clear that Matta’s goal is to see her clients succeed and thrive, and she does everything in her power to make that happen.I wholeheartedly recommend Matta to anyone seeking professional, compassionate, and expert services. Her dedication to her craft and her clients is truly inspiring, and I am grateful for the remarkable experience she provided. Thank you, Matta, for your outstanding service and for making a positive impact!
Celeste is an absolute gem of a massage therapist! Her kindness and warmth create an inviting atmosphere, making every session a truly comforting experience. Shes been a tremendous help with my soccer injuries, and her skill in understanding the body is remarkable. Each massage feels personalized, and I always leave feeling not just physically better, but genuinely cared for. Also, its not only Celeste, its anyone at Living Arts Wellness – tried another massage there, and it was fantastic too! Grateful for the care and expertise they bring. Highly recommend!
Had a deep tissue full body massage with Kat and it was the perfect amount of pressure the entire time. Felt great. Easy to get to & easy to schedule. 5/5
I went to see Celeste to help with hip pain and also scar tissue in my hand post surgery that needed to be massaged. I have been to many chiropractors regarding my hip and the treatments never worked but one session with her and it feels amazing !The whole experience was calming and relaxing. She also recommended a red light laser to help my scar and promote healing …. It made a big difference. Celeste is a professional with extensive knowledge and many years experience and it shows in how I feel this evening . I highly recommend her practice !
The couples massage was a great date night idea We both felt so relaxed afterwards
Their trigger point therapy has done wonders for my chronic shoulder pain. I feel like a new person!
Beth Habig is a gift from the East Coast! I showed up with a ball of tension and in my session she was able to assist my body in releasing the pain and stress that I had been holding for the last week.She is incredibly intuitive, and has a deep knowledge of bodies, somatics, and how to nurture on the table!Cannot recommend her enough for massage!! Thank you, Beth!!
At an emotionally tense time, I was determined to get a massage on a last minute day off from work. I found an opening with Kat at Living Arts Wellness. She held such beautiful space for me and all my pent up emotions that I buried deep in my body. Her voice was so incredibly soothing too. You could tell before she said anything she was intentional with her volume and tone. It’s in a great old town location too with a parking lot so no needless parking anxiety :)
Lauren was friendly and knew just what I needed. I have back pains and headaches and her massage really helped!
I appreciate how the therapists at Living Arts really listen to what you need. Theyre very attentive.
For over 10 years, my Doctor has wanted me to go to Living Arts Wellness for a Colonic. I have been too embarrassed to even think about a Colonic. Now, I realize that I need not have been embarrassed. Matta treated me with respect and kindness. Matta made the procedure very easy and the room had a relaxing atmosphere. This is something that I will have done every year . I give them a 10 and 5 stars.
Celeste at Living Arts Wellness is nothing short of AMAZING! I have used massage therapy as a part of my regular self care for years. What Celeste is able to do is well beyond anything I have experienced from a deep tissue massage. I have seen Celeste for an acute shoulder injury as well as regular mayofacial release therapy to help with body and emotional wellness. The only thing better than Celeste’s skill on the massage table is her calming and loving presence. I always feel seen, heard, understood, and cared for as soon as I walk in. Celeste always seems to magically know exactly what I need!
While not the most fun or easiest topic to discuss, digestive problems are painful and life-altering. If I hadnt found Matta, the amazingly kind and wonderful colonic hydrotherapist, I honestly dont think I would have survived my autoimmune illness.If you are having problems with constipation, or even if you just want a clean start, I cant recommend her enough. The woman is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and has literally helped save my life.
Amazing!! One of the best massages Ive received plus scheduling was easy and convenient
Aquatic therapy in the pool here is an amazing experience. It has been so helpful for my chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Gina is thoughtful, empathetic, and professional, and makes the pool experience safe, inclusive, and gentle. Water is such a healing space for me and having a professional guide the session made it easy for me to let go and release tension through my spine and pelvis and really address some root causes of my chronic pain. I was pleasantly surprised by the spiritual soothing I also experienced throughout and after the session too, not something I was even seeking out so it was pretty cool to feel. Aquatic therapy a very unique type of body work that I’d recommend to anybody for pain, mental health, or just to zen out and float in the most magical pool of all time. Its so special that this exists in Northern Colorado!!
I just had my first massage with Beth Habig and Im incredibly pleased. Ive been having chronic pain and lack of mobility from an injury for over a year. After my 2 hour massage I was able to raise my right ankle and put it on my left knee UNASSISTED. Shes the best, you will not be disappointed.
First time at Living Arts Wellness for a much needed deep tissue massage. Beth was absolutely incredible- best massage I have ever received. She listened to me and how I was describing my back pain and did a great job of doing deep tissue work without it being a painful experience. She was thorough and targeted muscles I didn’t even know were connected to my “pain” areas! I appreciated Beth’s communication during the session- the pressure was perfect but I felt very comfortable if I would have needed to speak up to adjust pressure.I am already booking my next session. Highly, highly recommend!
Awesome experience here! Was just in Fort Collins for part of a day and these folks got me in with less than 30 minutes notice! I was dealing with a leg injury and they set me on a path to recovery. Very helpful for both the mind and body! Thanks again.
I have been going here for two years and have had four different massage therapist depending on my schedule. All of them have been great! Instead of only focusing on the main areas of back and neck, each therapist has paid attention to everything from my literal finger tips down to my toes. Staff is pleasant, professional and well groomed.Random, but other places I’ve been masseuse looked like they just had rolled out of bed and wanted me to have a look at my spiritual self before beginning.Let’s be real, by the time I have money and time for a massage my spiritual self is a hag.
I would absolutely recommend Beth at Living Arts Wellness. I was experiencing severe TMJ pain and could hardly open my mouth. After three visits with her Im back to full range of motion, and Im staying on the books for regular massages with her. Cant thank her enough!
Celeste and her team at Living Arts Wellness have always continued to be the very best!! Ive been going to Celeste and her team at least once a month for over 10 years now. I always walk in with some kind of problem big and small. They always explain to me whats going on with my body, fix me up and make me feel comfortable.They are simply THE BEST! Thank you Living Arts Wellness for taking care of me all these years!
As a massage therapist of 19 years, I have become a tough critic of body work. I recently went to Matthew for some help with hip pain and was so impressed that I’ve been back twice since my initial visit. He is a gifted healer and has the strength, knowledge and intuition necessary to provide an excellent massage. He checks in about pressure often and remembers details from previous visits. It’s clear that he cares and I can’t praise him highly enough. I will definitely be back.
Cat and Michelle are operating at the highest level. Amazing customer service, friendly, welcoming, and such a high level of skill and talent as massage therapists. Id give 10 stars if I could -
A wonderful place. Booking as easy and Katis an amazing massage physical therapist!
I saw Beth for a relaxing birthday massage yesterday and am so pleased! I was not only very relaxed, but feel great today. She was so warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable. Looking forward to coming back and treating myself more often, Thank you, Beth!
I had never gotten a massage with a male masseuse before but Hawten helped me feel comfortable right away! He listened to my needs and was very respectful. It was the most personalized yet well-rounded massage I have ever received! They take a very holistic, almost medical approach to massage here and I appreciate that a lot.
I am writing to offer my review of Missy Whaleys massage.I have received about 25 massages from Missy over about a year and a half. I appreciate her attention to what my body needed. She is very intuitive and addressed my needs even when I did not know what I needed. She was always creative and willing to use her senses to explore my needs. I went to her with headaches and found that she addressed that issue and so much more. I highly recommend Missy & her work to friends and family. Besides her good work, she is a kind and respectful person.Lynda RoseAthens, Ohio
Celeste and her staff are not only incredibly knowledgeable but they are true professionals who take the time to learn how they can help their clients. I have seen many massage therapists over the years, but never have I had someone as beneficial as Celeste! Just look at their other reviews- it should be clear that this is the best option in Northern Colorado for massage. Dont hesitate- book your appointment today and learn for yourself why this company is getting such high praise!
Ive had more than a few massages and other treatments at Living Arts Wellness in Fort Collins and the experience has always been first class. The atmosphere is wonderful, and my Massage Therapist Mandy Westfall is very knowledgeable and skilled. I would recommend them to anyone!
I have been a client at Living Arts Wellness for several years now, and have never been disappointed. If youre looking for special gift idea, Ive found that their gift certificates are always very much appreciated. Or, if its time to treat yourself to the many benefits of massage therapy, you can always rely upon the professionals at Living Arts Wellness for a truly great experience. I highly recommend them.
I have the privilege of being a client of Living Arts Wellness, Celeste has worked with me non stop to achieve a level of health and functioning. I had major health issues, stroke, cancer, brain surgery, Celeste brings a vast array of knowledge and compassion. Everyone I have worked with is professional and kind, I cant say enough about Living Arts Wellness. I highly recommend all modalities and each therapist. Living Arts Wellness is always convenient, cutting edge and a great value! If you need an assist in healing this is the Place for you! Or if you just need to chill, and take a beat from the day Living Arts Wellness.
Hands down, no questions asked Mandy is the best massage therapist I have ever been to. Not only is her knowledge level top notch so are her massages. I have been having a lot of issues with my neck and had several massages trying to making my neck feel better. Mandy is the only person who has made incredible progress. Her massages are not like any other massages I have had. She understands how the muscles and body works and can target and fix the problem. If you are looking for more than a massage and need help fixing your body and maintaining a better you, Mandy will not disappoint.
My husband and I had a couples massage here with Celeste and Aaron. Living Arts Wellness is located in an adorable house, and the space that the massages are done is extremely comfortable and clean. Celeste and Aaron were incredible therapists, and both my husband and I had a great experience. I would HIGHLY recommend this place if you are looking for highly skilled therapists and a comfortable environment! I could not be more pleased!
Molly gave such an amazing safe wonderful massage. I have chronic lower back pain and she did wonders on my back! I feel like Ive been reset. Cant wait to see her again.
Living Arts Wellness is my favorite spot to get a massage in Fort Collins. The facilities are quaint and well kept. The massage therapists are incredible and friendly. Every time I go, I walk out feeling amazing and relaxed. Also, I highly recommend seeing Aaron Cason if you suffer from chronic headaches and want to see a talented massage therapist. Enjoy!
My husband and I have been going to Living Arts Wellness for couples massages. Dianne and Michelle are amazing! They have both worked very closely with us to customize our massages to meet each of our unique needs. They are both very accommodating with their schedule as well. Their prices are so reasonable that we have been able to go monthly. I would highly recommend going to Living Arts Wellness!
I highly recommend Beth Habig, LMT, here at Living Arts Wellness. She has honed her craft after many years of experience and it shows. She is an absolute delight and has a smooth and steady approach that makes you feel incredibly relaxed from the get go.She was totally on point with great pressure intuition, checking in with me the entire time. She is a confident professional who really knows her stuff! Thanks again, Beth! S.G.
This place was absolutely lovely the second I stepped foot through the door. I was helped immediately by Beth, who gave me the best massage of my life, no joke. Ive had my fair share as an athlete, but I left feeling so relieved and slept like a baby, waking up feeling super energized. Beths energy was wonderful and I actually learned a lot in just the hour she worked with me. Highly recommend this place and specifically Beth if youre looking for some pain relief or relaxation.
I have been a client at Living Arts Wellness for many years. It is one of the most compassionate places that I have found in decades of searching for the perfect place to receive wellness services. I love the fact that Living Arts Wellness is located in a house near Old Town - the atmosphere is so much more welcoming than an office building! I have received massages from three of the therapists, and they have all been top notch. Colon hydrotherapy, another service offered at Living Arts Wellness, has greatly improved my quality of life.
I have been getting bodywork here for about two years. I feel that the therapist’s have listened and were intuitive. As a dancer, farmer and body worker myself I have high standards and high needs . Living Wellness brings comfort to my working body, relieve to my sore muscles and peace in my soul. The massages provide a safe space and a time for me to go deep and reflect upon what needs attention.The environment is always welcoming and relaxing at the time I enter. I have bought gift certificates for my family which they keep rescheduling.Highly recommend . 💛
My experience with Living Arts Wellness has been nothing but excellent. I suffer from chronic headaches as well as chronic shoulder and neck pain. My doctor had started talking about doing spinal surgery to relieve my pain because he didnt know what else to do for me, but I thought that would be awfully extreme. After some research I chose Living Arts Wellness as they do a lot of structural work, dealing with medical issues as opposed to a spa-type massage. The massage has absolutely been tailored to my needs. No one size fits all here.Celeste was incredibly flexible from the beginning. Ive been to a lot of massage therapists over the last 20 years and Celeste blows them all out of the water. After my very first massage, my arm, which had become permanently numb in the previous few months, suddenly had feeling again. After several months of weekly massage, the numbness is gone completely. The pain in my shoulder is decreasing as my muscles are finally relaxing and being moved back into the proper positions. I could not be happier with the results.When Celeste went out-of-town, she made sure that I got in with another massage therapist (Amy) so that I didnt have to miss a treatment. And as much as I love Celeste, Amy was just as good. From my experience, I will assume that everyone there is of a similar quality. They all are involved in continuing education, constantly striving to give their clients what they need.My only with my experience regret is that I did not seek help from Celeste months ago.
Visited Living Arts Wellness for my first colon hydrotherapy session today. I was very impressed with the atmosphere and overall experience from the first phone call to the actual cleanse. Kristi did an amazing job and her expertise, professionalism, and energy made my visit the very best it could be. I have already scheduled my second session and look forward to the benefits that come from this first session. Thank you!
Mandy Westfall is my massage therapist, and she is the most talented and effective therapist I have ever been to. She always makes a huge difference in my neck back issues, and Im thankful for her skills. Living Arts location is convenient, and the facility itself is beautiful, simple, and comfortable. I love going there and cant wait for my next appointment... maybe I should schedule it right now!
I am so blessed to have found Living Arts Wellness! Celeste has been so helpful and knowledgeable about my path to healing. I’ve only done the colon hydrotherapy so far and have felt improvement! I’ve also taken 2 of my children here as well and I wouldn’t trust just anyone to work on my kids. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to improve your health! Super friendly and caring staff!
For the past three years, I have received therapeutic massages on an average of twice a month at Living Arts Wellness. Having lived in various locations in the US and the UK, and can say with some assurance that this is by far the best resource for massage therapy that I have encountered, and is one of the reasons I feel fortunate to live in the Fort Collins community. Customers will find a wide range of styles and resources to suit their specific needs, and all therapists with whom I have worked practice with dedication, and at the very highest levels of their crafts. The consistently high standards of excellence at Living Arts Wellness result from the management approach of owner, Celeste Magnason. Celeste is not only a gifted, highly experienced, and devoted therapist, but also directs this enterprise with passion, enthusiasm, and commitment to customer service that is increasingly rare in this day and age. Over the years, I have worked primarily with Amy and Celeste, but also, on occasion, Mandy and Ashley. While their approaches are different, I’ve found them all to be wonderfully gifted therapists and compassionate people who genuinely care about their clients’ health and well being. Relationships built on trust and client familiarity can be established over time, resulting in individually tailored therapeutic approaches. Living Arts Wellness emanates a sense of peace and tranquility as soon as one walks through the door. Treatment rooms are intimate, peaceful, scrupulously maintained, and exceptionally well equipped. My appointment is the high point of my week, and, while every session is different, each occasion is inevitably an experience of self-discovery.Fort Collins residents are fortunate to have Living Arts Wellness in their community, and I have absolutely no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending this wonderful resource that is clearly as much a labor of love and compassion, as it is an outstanding, highly successful local business enterprise. Thanks Celeste et al. for making this happen.
Living Arts Wellness has been a LIFE SAVER in my healing journey. My husband and I go to Celeste for colonics and steams several times a month. Celeste is knowledgeable on a variety of healing modalities, she is SO kind and nurturing. She has been instrumental in helping my body recover from mold exposure and improving my overall quality of life. The atmosphere of the center is calm and welcoming. I am so grateful that I found Living Arts Wellness and highly recommend Celeste!
Ive been seeing a massage therapist in Kansas twice a month for 10 years. I thought she was the best - and then I moved to Fort Collins and fell into the hands of Aaron at Living Arts Wellness! He took my massage therapy to a level I didnt know existed! He not only gave me the relaxing massage I had been used to, he also applied deep tissue massage combined with essential oils. I experienced a range of motion that I hadnt had in years!
Living Arts Wellness has a variety of massage therapists, and all whom I have seen have been wonderful. I have visited Mandy and Amy the most, and each of these ladies is sincerely concerned with providing a healthful and healing massage experience from the moment you walk through the door until the moment you inhale a glass of water after youre finished. Both have also modified my massage position when needed, to accommodate a cold or an injury, for example. Thank you LAW!
4 years ago I wrote- What a nourishing, healing and beautiful center. Receive the best massage here and plan on going back regularly. Am still a very grateful client. Celeste is not only incredibly skillful, but also invests in her ongoing training for her clients and knows so much about holistic health. She also has created a wonderful healing center with other highly skilled practitioners.
Some of the best if not the best massage therapy and alternative healing in Fort Collins. Owner Celeste goes out of her way to recruit excellent providers, is always willing to work a client in and provides sound advice. I have been going to massage therapist Aaron Cason at Healing Arts for four years and I cannot say enough good about the service he provides. Im never disappointed.
One of my best experiences EVER! Mandy W. and Michelle G. are amazing. I have had massage many years and these women are truly outstanding. Thank you.
Living Arts Wellness (LAW) is hands down one of my favorite businesses and I especially LOVE Celeste. She is professional, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. My health drastically improved for the better after I started seeing her for colonics I will continue to be a lifelong customer. Concerning the business, LAW is always clean, bright and has a very calm presence. The entire staff makes me feel welcome and its easy to schedule appointments. I highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to make wellness a priority.
Living Arts Wellness is my favorite place to visit for a massage in Fort Collins. I have specifically been to Aaron twice so far and each time impressed by the treatments, conversation, and Aaron as an overall individual and therapist. I am grateful for his work and plethora of knowledge. I walk away feeling more enlightened (and physically lighter) with each visit!
I recently completed the Living Foods class, as well as got my first colonic! The class was fantastic. Lots of great food, great people, and great info, with plenty of recipes and handouts. It was exactly what i was looking for. There were many things i had been wanting to try, but was either intimidated or just never took the time to really put in the effort, and this class made it easy to understand. We tried something new ever week, from sprouting to fermenting, and i feel confident enough now to continue on by myself! Celeste is such a warm, caring person, i really enjoyed getting to know her as well. With the colonic, she explained everything very well, kept me calm, and always made sure i was comfortable. I will definitely be going back, and would highly recommend this lovely little place to anyone interested in increasing health and wellness!
I found Celeste via referral from another muscular therapist when I was injured several years ago. I was having severe nerve pain in my shoulders and arms which was debilitating and had me frequently in tears from pain. The emergency room was of no help, giving me muscle relaxers and a few days of pain meds, but they could not even diagnose what was going on. Finding Celeste was a true blessing- she has helped me work through this and return to functionality, and my nerve pain has not recurred in two years. She always works to fit me in to her schedule when I am in need of a session with her. She is truly professional and a very genuine and compassionate person. I have also seen other therapists at Living Arts Wellness- they are all kind people who are excellent at what they do. Fort Collins is lucky to have them!
Living Arts Wellness is AMAZING and their Colonic Services (with Ozone) are next-level cleansing! I always feel like Ive hit a deeper level of healing when I leave. Celeste, the Owner, is empathetic, really intuitive and very knowledgeable when it comes to alternative healing therapies. I would recommend anyone who is searching for a deeper-level of healing to seek out their services. I am eternally grateful!
My massage was amazing. Celeste fit me into the schedule last minute. She took time to listen to my needs and intuitively knew what my body needed. I live 45 minutes away and will be back for sure!
I have been going to Living Arts Wellness for several years, and I have had GREAT experiences each time. I currently see Kristi Buss. She is AMAZING! Her massage work is excellent, and her energy work is most effective! I recommend them highly!
Absolutely amazing. My husband and I had couples massages done here for our anniversary. Our massage therapists made us feel very comfortable and welcomed. I live in Denver and I would be willing to drive back to Fort Collins just to have another massage done here.
Best colon hydrotherapy I have experienced in my 25 years of getting colonics. Celeste is incredibly skilled as a healing practitioner, knowledgeable and informed about the most current and effective supplements and nutritional and healing information. All of the colon therapists are excellent and nurturing. The equipment is state of the art and the center pristinely clean and charming. Living Arts Wellness has been a life-saver for me since coming to Colorado from New York City a year and a half ago and has been an integral part of my healing process here and my immensely improved health. I cannot recommend this place enough!!!!
Very good massage. I got the pressure point massage, it did find some tend areas. Overall I believe I am not too tense but it was a good therapy nonetheless. There are many independent massage therapists that work here in addition to their own practices. Covid cautious the crew has a great mitigation plan that included temperature checks and a outdoor waiting policy. I felt very safe
Ive been going to Living Arts Wellness for colonics and massage for many years, plus a class or two. Highly recommended! Celeste is great...very caring, skilled and knowledgeable. The prospect of colon hydrotherapy can be kind of scary before youve tried it...the fear of the unknown. But Celeste is very good at putting you at ease and making things comfortable. A very clean and safe process. After my first colonic I wondered why it took me so long to get myself there!
Becca did a great job on a long problematic hip of mine. Felt very fortunate there was a spot available same day.As a fellow massage therapist, I liked her technique & kind demeanor. Id definitely go see her again. And, will likely try so.e of the other services they offer!
A massage at Living Arts Wellness is always tailored to your specific needs. Gone are the days where I feel like my massage is the same routine every patient gets. Each appointment I tend to give slightly different instructions, and they always listen. As a cyclist, I can actively feel the benefits of my targeted treatments for comfort on the bike. Living Arts Wellness is my secret to performance.
I have been going to Living Arts Wellness for almost 3 years. From the first visit and throughout all of my visits, from the moment I walk through the door, I feel a calm in the atmosphere. Its relaxing and pleasant just sitting in the waiting area. Kristi Buss, and the owner, Celeste Magnuson, have helped me more than I can describe with body work and colonics. They are two of the kindest people I know. I have always felt very cared for by both of them when either of them have worked on me. They are both knowledgeable about overall health and wellness. I have experienced amazing massage, healing touch work, and the Hari Method with Kristi. Celeste has helped me so much with myofascial release to break up adhesions in my upper back, chest, and shoulder from a frozen shoulder to help me regain the range of motion in my shoulder. Celeste has also given me healing massage. These healers are two of the sweetest people you will ever meet. If you are in need of massage, or any other treatment offered at Living Arts Wellness, you will love this place and the healers who work there. You will benefit. The staff have a diverse number of healing methods and experience which can be matched to your specific needs.
My wonderful husband got me a gift certificate to get a massage here when I got pregnant. He carefully researched the best place in Fort Collins to get a prenatal massage and this was supposed to be it. I saved the gift certificate until I was 8mo pregnant with our twins and decided to book the massage because I was in so much pain.The girl who did my massage gave me a deep tissue massage, which is not what I signed up for and you are NOT supposed to get one of those when you are pregnant because of how many toxins can be released into your body. Having never had a deep tissue massage before, I was trying to carefully figure out why it hurt so much without offending the masseuse. She told me she thought Swedish massage was fluffy and pointless and gave me a five second example of what that was (which is what I thought I would be getting), and then went back to deep tissue, explaining that she just liked doing that better. Unfortunately I didnt figure this out until the end of my massage and I was so disappointed. Im honestly not even sure what the prenatal part of the massage was supposed to be other than laying on my side.When I went to check out I handed her my $100 gift certificate (prenatal massage is $75) and she told me I was all set to go. I hesitated and she added, unless you wanted some change back. Seriously? Girl wanted a $25 tip. The way she handled the payment was so unprofessional and put me in an awkward position. I was so shocked and just wanted to leave because my whole body hurt, so I mumbled some thanks and just left. During the massage I learned that my masseuse was 19, so maybe she just needs more experience and to learn some professionalism, I dont know. But I wish Id stuck up for myself sooner in the massage and I wish I hadnt given her the $25.Im not trying to tear this place down, because clearly people love coming here and have great experiences. I just wish my experience had been great, too.
Missy is amazing! She is empathetic, intuitive, and attentive to my needs. As a musician I have dealt with carpal tunnel and tendinitis. Her massage has helped me greatly. She is a gentle and kind soul. I always feel better in my body and spirit after our time.
Wonderful massage, comfortable environment and very nice masseuse! I will be going back!!
Celeste is AMAZING! My legs were about to fall off from working out so much.. 2 hours of work and I feelFantastic! She is an artist in this business.
Best massage in Fort Collins, amazing atmosphere and caring, passionate massage therapists!This long overdue review is a special shout out to the one and only Aaron Carson! Thanks to him I am still around to write this review :) Aaron has only been my therapist for around 6 months to a year but I feel like Ive known him for ages! He is an old soul with a passionate desire for learning how to best hone the art of therapy and healing. He always gives special attention to my needs (which is usually deep tissue massage my neck, shoulders and head), hes very wise (an old soul as some say) and a conversationalist with a delightful sense of humor. He understands the pain I have and he persistently drills away at the knots until I actually feel like a person again (as opposed to a hunchback of Notre Dame human knot)! There is no end to the wonderful things I could say about Aaron , but quite simply I can say that beyond being a fantastic massage therapist he is also an amazing human being. No short supply of wonderful people at Living Arts Wellness, thats for sure!I love the Asian decor and the overall vibe of the place is very relaxing, clean and overall well kept. I also really enjoyed the oils/cremes that were used on my neck during massages there, the camomile creme is so soothing and it sustains the relief for hours afterwards. My only regret is that I havent gone more often!Thank you so much for everything gang- and a special thank you to Aaron, of course. Keep up the amazing work, you all are truly gifted people providing a much needed and appreciated service.5 stars all day, errday for living arts wellness. I recommend them in the highest regard.
Mandy is hands down the best masseuse I’ve ever been to. I’ve gotten tons of massages from various people over the years, and Mandy tops all of them. Her neuromuscular technique is incredible and targets your exact problem areas. I’ll never go to anyone else again! So happy I found her, thank you!-Megan
I met with Ashley for a very convenient evening appointment, which I am extremely grateful for. Sometimes, not everyone can visit during normal business hours, so having a place like Living Arts Wellness to count on for later appointments is truly special. I suffered many severe sports injuries in high school, as well as accidents in my 20’s, LOL, so my back, legs, and shoulders are tense and extremely painful. Ashley’s approach is one that I was very grateful to finally find in Fort Collins. I instantly knew that I would be receiving a massage from an individual who is spiritually balanced, knowledgeable, non-judgemental, respectful, and came to work focused on healing others. Too many times, I have shown up for massages and my therapist had brought their personal energetic baggage into the room, and being a true empath, it makes me extremely uncomfortable, sad, or even more tense than I was when I showed up. I think it is important to leave reviews when people give great service or healing, instead of just when things go badly. That way, people who are seeking their own healing, can find places and people who offer great service. I know a lot of it is subjective, but it is still needed. Overall, I had a fantastic, healing, and calming experience that was thoughtful and very much appreciated. Exactly what I was looking for. Out of the 7 LMT’s that I have been to since moving here in 2016, Ashley and Living Arts Wellness tops-the-list. I love the office being in a house, it makes it so welcoming and warm!!
Ive been going here for years. Ive now seen almost every massage therapist. Its an amazing place. Talented people come to work here. The energy is awesome. My wife and daughter are now regulars here, too! I highly recommend Living Arts Wellness.
I took my daughter and myself for an all day experience. I have yet to find any place better for massage, colonic, facials,etc... You will never be disappointed coming to Living Arts Wellness Center. The ambiance, the staff of course are wonderful and such a cute place. I would go there anytime I am in town visiting my daughter. I live in Wisconsin and my daughter lives in Loveland.
I had my first colon hydro therapy session and massage with Celeste, and she was amazing! I had no idea what to expect and I was a little nervouse.She made me feel so comfortable and at ease. After my session was complete I felt so good. I have not felt this healthy and relaxed in a really long time. I will definently be a regular at Living Arts Wellness.
As a massage therapist for nearly 20 years, and a two-time cervical fusion survivor, I can attest to the skills, compassion and therapeutic treatments offered at Living Arts Wellness. The best, simple as that. This is where I find relief from the wear and tear on my body, from providing body work myself or from the stress and tightness experienced from the fusions. Fantastic, warm environment and the best treatment available...win/win all the way around!
Another AMAZING deep tissue massage by Matthew! It does wonders for neck and back pain. He is truly a talented healer and just a kind, wonderful personThank you!
Missy Whaley gave the best massages ever! Missy’s background with dance/choreography/yoga practice all make her massage more empathetic and creative. I consider her massage an artistic gift. She’s also fabulously intuitive for prenatal massage too.
After receiving massage therapy for over twenty years from a number of therapists with very different techniques and skills, I can tell you that the massage therapists at Living Arts Wellness are some of the best, not just in Colorado, but in the U.S. I am not exaggerating since I started massages in Chicago and have lived in Las Vegas, Wyoming, Montana, etc. They listen to you and what your needs are and are so well trained. Celeste and the other therapists continue their education because they love what they do and they want the clients to succeed with whatever physiological issues that they have. The environment is conducive to healing and wellness. You just need to go there and find out for yourself. I also think that the therapists work together and influence each other. I have worked with Danielle and I know how much she is influenced by Celeste. This is a great place.
My name is Paul Polanski.I have worked in various physical therapy settings for 28yrs as a Licensed Massage Therapist and Physical Therapist Assistant.When I met Missy Whaley she had just completed her Masters Degree in Dance from Temple Univ in Philadelphia. She then went on to study massage in upstate NY.Her experiential knowledge of the way our bodies are capable of moving, along with an intuitive sense of tension and touch make her the most potent body worker Ive ever experienced in my many years around therapy. I recommend her professionally without reservation.
This place is Healing and Heaven, they are caring and helpful women. If it wasnt for Celeste I have no idea where I would be health wise. The other ladies are great also, I appreciate thier time and effort into the Healing Arts! Thank you for your care and comfort. My Service Dog, Bridget, is always accommodated, and welcomed.
My husband and I go to Mandy Westfall at Living Arts Wellness for massages. She is a truly talented massage therapist! She always can identify the root cause of whatever issue Im having, and then successfully works to alleviate the pain. The center itself is convenient to get to, and is in a charming Old Town house with a cozy feel.
I have been to around 20 masseuses and Deb is by far the most talented. Every session is a healing and relaxing treat. She is fantastic at deep tissue work for my shoulder but is also fabulous at other styles of massage. Deb deserves a raise for sure. Please dont request Deb though because I want all the best appointment times. Haha
Having worked with Celeste (or better stated, she with me) for almost five years now, I am a faithful and most appreciative client. Never have I met a more tuned in, talented and generous human being. With longstanding spine and back issues, I wouldnt be functioning nearly as well as I am were it not for her and her care. Need I say more? I look forward to continuing this relationship for as long as we both can.
Im not one to leave reviews, but I was so frustrated that I need to. I went in a couple weeks ago after much recommendation from friends. First of all, I called in a couple days ahead and said I needed a specific body part worked on since I had excruciating pain. I told the employee I need a deep tissue massage and she recommended a specific masseur. I scheduled for a couple days out, she called me the next day and said that the masseurs schedule opened up and I could come earlier. So I canceled what I had going on that day and went in earlier..... Only to arrive 2 hours later and be told that the man I was scheduled with had to leave and so they set me up with someone else. They could have had the decency to call me and tell me sorry we lied about him being here. I needed him specifically since he can give deep tissue massages. I ended up getting a massage anyway and had to repeatedly tell the young lady to go harder, she would for a few minutes, and go back to a weak massage. I needed a deep tissue massage...... Not only that but she also did not do the full 60 minutes as is stated on their website. At the end when it was time to pay, she gave me a whole spiel about how I dont need to tip and how they get payed well, and then when I hand her the 100 dollar bill she says how much change would you like back essentially forcing me to tip, which I did because I wanted to be nice, but I still regret doing so. If you are going to give me a 2 minute spiel about how I dont have to tip, dont ask me how much I would like to tip. Either way she did not do a good job with the massage. I do not recommend this place, there are much better places to get a massage for a better price. I went elsewhere and they solved my problem within a couple days, for much less than $90. Go elsewhere.Update: Since the owner responded, it seems as though she assumes I am a distraught employee. I guess if if they dont care enough to learn about your experience and correct it then that means it probably isnt one of the best places to go to. And, I know you dont charge $90, I just made they mistake of leaving a $15 tip... since I was forced into it very unprofessionally. And I didnt even get the deep tissue massage I was looking for regardless of price.Update 2: The responses from the owner speak volumes about this place. Since my review is spam... When you walk in there is a sign that says to take your shoes off. In the middle of the room is a slightly tall dining table. Straight ahead and slightly left is the front counter, which I waited at for almost 10 minutes (a few past my scheduled start time) before someone showed up. Behind the counter is a door that leads outside and opposite the door is the stairs that lead to the basement. I also had purple sheets on the massage table. I also checked the clock in the room after the masseuse said she was done and thinking it hasnt been an hour yet. I checked my cell phone again when I got to the car and it was still under an hour when I got in my car. If I honestly would have even felt 15% better I wouldnt be as frustrated, but I left with almost no change, all for a hard day of manual labor on my low income. Also, the mere fact that the owner continues to attack my review and calls me a liar goes to show the professionalism of this place. When Google does look into the post origin they will see a house 5 minutes north of you with a Fort Collins IP address. Im quite disappointed in this place since I had high hopes hearing about it.
My wife woke up with a terribly stiff neck yesterday. She is energetically sensitive. Living Arts Wellness they squeezed her in on short notice. Five stars for excellent responsive service, professional presentation, and near perfect instinct for customer need. She received an excellent massage from Deb.
I searched around for a massage place in town for years, but since going to Living Arts Wellness, I havent thought about going anywhere else! I have tried many of the massage therapists, and been very happy. My husband and I also recently went to one of their classes, and we were really impressed!
I booked a message with Diane and she is nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend her if you are an athlete or like deep tissue messages focused on areas of chronic pain. She did a great job of releasing pain in my neck and upper back.
I recently started working out again after a long hiatus and began having some muscle issues in my back and shoulders. During the first session Amy had it targeted and after a few more she had everything working again!Great atmosphere and Great People!
I went to see Celeste & got a deep tissue myofacial release session & it was phenomenal 🙌! Excellent experience!I feel my stiffness & tension has been alleviated.
We did a couples massage. Kristi and Deb were absolutely wonderful. Kristi worked out knots Id had for years. So good that we booked another appointment for the very next day.
If you have not been to living arts massage center, then you are really missing out. What a wonderful center, from massage to colonics, this center is awesome. Celeste the owner is so experienced as well as her staff. I have had the pleasure of both services and both were excellent. I will be back!
THE BEST! Mandy is absolutely amazing. Had a fairly serious pain in my shoulder for years, and it was resolved after my first session. Ive tried many different masseuses, and nobody compares! Go to this spot!
Booked super last minute and Claudia was amazing. She worked with my specific needs & even squeezed in some energy work! Super professional yet relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend and will be returning!
Easy going, relaxed. Harper made me feel welcome and at home, she was kind, polite, and attentive to detail! Massage was amazing and because of how amazing Harper made the whole experience I will be looking forward to next month!
Matthew did magic with his hands. He is intuitive and spiritual and knew exactly what I needed. I am like a new woman and released so much that was blocking me.I feel excited and happy about what is coming to me and what I am releasing.
Mandy Westfall is exceptional at what she does. she has been my massage therapist for over 13 years, she is continually learning new techniques to help, whether it is necks, low back, hip, wrist... She can do it well!
Amazing. Deep tissue massage with Ruby. Very capable very helpful. Uplifting calming space. My lower back appreciates you 💚💐🏞️
This was my first colon hydrotherapy session and Celeste made it very easy with how informative, helpful and professional she was. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a cleansing program and plan on seeing her again the next time I am in Fort Collins.
I recently just had a kid and my body was is need if a good massage. I got just that! Erin did an amazing job and I cant wait to make another appointment.
Definitely the best! Everytime, I get to Fort Collins, I book with the Living Arts Wellness.Theres no better than Erin and Ive had so many massages.....this establishment is thevery best.Betsy
Called in to try and book a couples massage. Sure, it was a little short notice, but I was greeted by Cheryl, who was rude and dismissive, let me know that Yeah, we dont have anything left, and promptly hung up on me. I hope the customer service is not representative of the overall atmosphere and massage quality.
I have had nothing but great experiences at Living Arts Wellness. All the therapists Ive seen have been very knowledgeable and listen to what Im looking to get from that days massage.
Amy rules! Its so nice going to someone who not only is great at what she does but someone who cares enough to give the the same, consistent, treatment each and every massage! I highly recommend her!
Calming, peaceful, and best of all, a very talented masseuse. Harper knows what she’s doing! I’ll come back again next time I’m in Fort Collins. Just wish they were in California 😊
Excellent massage and experience. The entirety of the massage felt like a very personal experience and ambiance. I couldn’t have been more relaxed!
Living Arts Wellness is conveniently located near my business office. Ive worked with Debra for years--no one better than her. Very relaxing environment.
I have been seeing Beth for awhile now and her knowledge and expertise has been incredibly helpful to me! I always feel so great after seeing her.
Great experience! The massage therapists are skilled and very professional! I will definitely make Living Arts Wellness the only massage place I will patronize.
I would highly recommend this place. I had a lot of trouble with tightness in my neck and what they did here was game changing. I have never felt so good and I will continue to go back. The service is very professional and well done. They take good care of you and do their jobs very well.
I found this place to be absolutely terrific. I do a lot of physical work on the daily and getting some knots worked out was by far the best experience Ive ever had. The people were very friendly the service was great and I felt very comfortable. I would highly suggest this business to all my friends and family. Thank you again I will be back again soon.
I have been seeing Celeste for a year now and love the experience! Celeste can find all the kinks and imbalances in my back and make me feel like a new woman. Thank you!
Celeste is amazing. Ive been searching for a great therapist in the area for months. She is a healer for sure.
Living Arts Wellness is by far the BEST place in NOCO for a massage and other services. Very friendly staff who are very accommodating and personable. Amy is amazing!!!
This place is UNSANITARY with nasty sheets and dirty water glasses! Burning sage smudge sticks inside doesnt cover the toilet smell lingering in the air, it makes it hard to breathe. There are better places and therapists, who care, than this place!
Great massage in a relaxing environment with no outside street noise. Aaron Cason was my therapist and he was great. A much recommended spa!
Staff is professional and focused on what your specific needs are. I enjoy the location as it makes me feel relaxed and the atmosphere is conducive to relaxing stress relieving massage.
The atmosphere is welcoming and the infrared treatment was a warm touch. Aaron is fantastic. Thank you for the enlightening conversation and relaxing treatment. I have already shared your information with 2 of my friends. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
I went here for a couples massage a couple days ago. We had Deb and Ashley, and they were wonderful. The massage was perfect and just right.
Amy is the best. The only person that has been able to really help my ailing body. She understands the human body and translates that into real therapy
Matthew(Bear) was amazing! I will recommend him 100% to everyone and I will be returning for more body work.
I had a massage with Beth, who is amazing, kind, and masterful.. I am definitely going back!.
Aaron is wonderful and understands the individual. The place is warm and comfortable. Best message ever. Not just a message but relief from pain and discomfort.
This is by far one of my most trusted locations for all forms of wellness. I would recommend them to anyone without question for a massage, colonic, food/nutrition etc.
Amy has helped me through multiple injuries, professional, friendly and most importantly skilled and knowledgeable in her practice. Great location, great staff!
The whole experience was amazing....Ruby was incredible hands down best massage ever💜❤💙💚
Such outstanding service! The staff is genuine and the atmosphere is so comfortable. You can defiantly trust these amazing people to take care of you!
Absolutely an amazing health care facility. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. Fabulous for those seeking physical rehabilitation, health, balance and wellness!
Massage was not bad. Not LGBTQ+ friendly, so hard to feel secure.
Great service! Felt really good after the session. Thanks Beth and Matthew.
Edited review: Any issues that I had were fixed. Other than that (which is totally resolved) my experience here has been fantastic.
I was in town visiting and they were able to squeeze me in. Masseuse did a wonderful job.
Very friendly atmosphere. Mandy is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. Would highly recommend!
I have seen both Amy and Celeste and they are both absolutely wonderful.
Haven’t been in a while but the massage was heavenly!
Have had massage with Celeste and Aaron. Both are excellent.
Shannon is a great therapist that really listens to what your body needs
Aaron is the only Massage Therapist I trust and go back to!
It was very clean. Had a great experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone!!
They worked with me to get me in last minute, cause I was hurting for a few days and I am a out of state truck driver trying to get home.
Very experienced and knowledgeable, you’ll always leave happy and relaxed.
Was a bit on the expensive side, but was a clean environment and great overall massage
Excellent, skilled and knowledgeable massage therapists. Highly recommended!
