Ive had a very positive experience with my massages from Raechel. She is experienced and knowledgeable and applies a targeted approach to your specific areas of concern. I started going to Massage Sci this year and dont regret it, I am in much better shape now and have received positive results.
Raechel is an incredible massage therapist. She is incredibly knowledgeable about pain & how to treat it. I had never had a massage that was treatment-focused instead of relaxation-only before going to Massage Sci, and it was amazing. She gave me materials to take home that included tips for managing pain based on what we had discussed during my massage, and it was so helpful to refer back to. Raechel also produces the most wonderful monthly newsletter that I look forward to every month! She always finds great articles and tips to share.
Rae always makes me so feel comfortable and gives wholistic advice on how to manage chronic pain and take care of myself when my body is speaking to me. From the optional heated massage table slip to the complimentary option of seasonal essential oils I always leave feeling relaxed and taken care of. Rae knows bodies and can tell if my muscles seem a little more tense than usual. The attention to detail and communication is unmatched. Well worth the money and time.
Rachel does a fantastic job! She takes the time to figure out whats happening with your body. Ive only gone a few times, but I already feel better. Focusing on areas of concern is her specialty, and she is very knowledgeable about managing pain by offering a medical massage approach vs. a basic massage approach.
Highly recommend Massage Sci! I have been a client for several years, having first found Raechel through a referral after surgery. She has seen me and my beleaguered body through several health challenges with compassion and patience. Always professional, caring and full of good advice too.
Been going to Raechel for a few years now. She knows so much about the human body beyond massage. She has worked miracles with my injuries and age aches, and made some very sound and appreciated suggestions for my recovery. She is top notch, you will not regret scheduling with her!
Rachel is keeping me healthy and active. Seeing her on a regular basis is keeping my back in good working order. I wish I found her years ago. Her information on maintaining a healthy body has been invaluable. I directly credit Rachel for how healthy I feel! Thank you Rachel
My massage experience with Raechel was great. She did a great job on my shoulder and back. Nice relaxing atmosphere.
Found Massage Sci by way of a friends recommendation, whom she helped aliviate pain and regain range of motion in his arm. Raechel is very knowledgeable and asks plenty of questions to help figure out the problem. I have always ended up feeling physically better after a visit. Being in the hands of a medical massage therapist, you might not get the massage you want (being a strictly relaxing massage), but you get the massage you need.
Absolutely the best massage therapist around. Raechel is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of healing and good health practices in general. She takes her time to truly understand exactly what her patients needs are and provides an achievable path to obtain their goals. I wouldnt trust anyone else with real massage therapy needs.
Rachel provides knowledgable and individualized treatment in a calming and therapeutic atmosphere. She is definitely my go to for massage therapy.
Raechel has been a lifesaver for multiple muscle issues for me! She is very knowledgeable about muscle pain and always has helpful tips and solutions to help make me pain free!
Raechel is an awesome massage therapist! She listens to what you need and explains everything she does very well. She helped me realize that I need to see my regular doctor as well as her therapy to catch any underlying medical issues, and set me up with things to do between visits. The covid-19 protocols cant be beat!!! Overall a wonderful experience.
Absolutely wonderful care provider in a calm, comfortable atmosphere. Raechel is clearly knowledgeable and serious about client care. She is professional and welcoming. If there were 10 stars - she would eceed even that.
Not only does Raechel give wonderful massages, but she gives useful tips for things you can do on your own to manage pain or relax a problem area. Ive been twice and greatly appreciate how professional, clean, and relaxing the physical space is and how I come away relaxed and better able to manage my own pain next time my back is acting up.
My first appointment was amazing. Raechel was precise in her description of the of the massage and mindful of my aches and pains. I felt so much better leaving and loved the heated table and nice smells of the lotion she used. The smaller setting is private and quiet.
Raechel is so kind and is always giving me self care tips to help me with my aches and pains when I’m not there for my massage. I love the atmosphere she creates for her clients I definitely recommend going to her. She genuinely cares about her clients. :)
My experience with Raechel over the last year has been phenomenal. As a chronic pain patient looking to add yoga back into my life, she has been an ESSENTIAL part of my journey back into movement. In addition to pain relief and relaxation, her work has been able to consistently queue me in to how muscle groups are fairing - e.g. alerting me early to strain I was otherwise unaware of - as well as supporting the known problem areas in my back. In large part because of Massage Sci I am moving more and more comfortably than I have in years!
I have been seeing Raechel for quite some time and she is just awesome. She has a beautiful, relaxed atmosphere and she is very knowledgeable with her massages. She has helped me greatly and would recommend her to everyone. She has a loving and caring heart.
Overall I had a great experience. Raechal took the time to understand my problem and was able to target that during the massage. She also suggested several tools that I can do at home to help alleviate the pain that I have been having. I especially appreciated that she explains how the brain processes pain, as it helps me to better understand how to adjust my habits.
Rachael was great. I was a little nervous as this was my first ever massage and I tend to be sensitive to touch on my back. I informed her about this and she made the whole experience very pleasurable and comfortable. I felt so great, and relieved after the massage that I hope to go back again soon! Highly recommend!
Raechel is far and away the best masseuse I have ever gone to. The amount of fact based science she uses is amazing. Not someone that will press until it hurts, but rather works with your muscles to bring relaxation. Raechel’s knowledge is very vast, and she loves to share. She has worked miracles in our family. From chronic pain, to getting old pains, to learning how to care for your body, Raechel delivers.
Racheal is very knowledgeable and very good massage therapist. Her experience and approach definitely produced great results. Thank you !
Raechel is so incredibly sweet and knowledgable on massage. I loved how after the session she gave advice specific to my pain and what I need. This was one of the best massages I have gotten.
I had a medical massage for the first time. Raechel made me very comfortable. She is very professional and knowledgeable. She knows how the brain and body respond to lotions, oils, etc. I will definitely make future appointments.
Raechel is honestly the best massage therapist I know. She always pays attention to detail and genuinely cares about everyones individual condition and treats them accordingly. On top of that she has an amazing personality and makes you feel comfortable. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone I know.
Raechel made me feel very comfortable right away and the massage was great! There was no pain involved and I was very relaxed after she was done. She asked what my pain points were and worked thru them during the massage. I highly recommend Raechel and Massage Sci!
Raechel has treated my forearms, back and neck and I cannot thank her enough for the relief. She is very knowledgeable and gives great advice and the atmosphere is very relaxing. I highly recommend her.
I am no stranger to massage therapy. My frequency has been up to 4 massages in a week!Having seen numerous LMTs, I get a sense of the ones that just kind of do this as a job and then there are the ones who have a passion for it. Raechel, in my opinion, is the latter. Her knowledge base is extensive, and her experience shows through her technique and skill. She used perfect pressure on each of my problem areas.The atmosphere was comfy and cozy and the lines of communication were wide open. Her personality is engaging and pleasant. Personally, I believe a Therapist/Client connection is crucial and that was established very quickly.People such as Raechel are true Healers in this broken world. Ill definitely be recommending her to all my family and friends!
I have used Massage Sci for rehabilitating injuries from concussions to ACL replacement surgery and have found Raechel to be very proficient and knowledgeable in her craft. She was able to discover and address issues I was having in recovery that my PTs seemed to overlook with both on site physical manipulation and recommend at home activities. I recommend her to all medical professionals I encounter as well as friends and family. Her pricing is crazy low for her abilities and if she would take more I would give it every visit. The personal connection she tries to make with her clients made me feel very relaxed and the time seems to go by in a matter of minutes with our side conversations occurring during therapy. Thank you Raechel!Jeremy
I enjoyed my first experience today at Massage Sci. Setting up an appointment was easy online. I like how transparent Raechel is about her methods and resources outside of her practice. I will definitely be returning soon!
Ive been treated by Raechel at Massage Sci numerous times. She has worked on my shoulders and back over a series of appointments, reducing tension and pain and providing me with a lot of relief. Additionally, Raechel educated me on several specifics I can do in between appointments to self treat. Massage Sci takes a scientific fact and evidenced based approach to their treatment, and for that reason highly I recommend their services.
I had a groupon for a massage not realizing that the massage therapist happened to be a friend of mine that attended my yoga classes before. I arrived a little early to fill out the paperwork and discuss pertinent information. Raechel is very professional and worked on the areas I had tightness and even found other areas that needed some attention. She was ready to go once I arrived and helped me out significantly. I will for sure be passing her contact information on to others that ask me all the time about who to go to for a therapeutic massage. I will be back. Thank you Raechel!!
I was traveling from out of town, had some soreness in my back from a the hotel bed and driving in a car all day. Was able to easily get an appointment, loved the online booking. Really liked Raechel a lot, she did a great job and really loosened up the muscles. Ill definitely see her again when Im in town.
Raechel is able to loosen the knots in my neck and shoulders with a quick 30 minute appointment, giving me instant relief from the tightness and tension I carry in those 2 areas. I would recommend her to anyone needing the same relief!
Ive done a lot of running this year and frequently treat my legs to various massage therapies . Massage Sci has helped me recover and replenish my overworked muscles. Rachel doesnt use a lot of hard pressure but works the muscles gently to restore and repair. I also love the OW relieving balm which I put on my legs every night and wake up refreshed and ready for another long run. Rachel also helped me with some chronic pelvic floor issues I thought were with me forever... they are completely gone. Highly recommend giving this massage a try.
I had never been to a massage therapist before and was a little nervous about the whole thing. But Raechel put me quickly at ease and did a great job on my neck and shoulders. I havent felt this loose in 20 years.I already booked her again for next week...
Raechel is amazing. If you have an ailment or just are feeling stressed she is the person to see. Its a very clean and private location in her home. She is very attentive and professional.
Very happy with my experience. She is very knowledgeable and professional. I was at ease immediately after arriving. She took her time to learn about me and my needs. The environment is clean, calming and relaxed. I will definitely be using her services again.
Raechel is professional and caring. She takes the time to learn problems you are having and what needs to be addressed. Her office is clean, warm, and inviting.
I was able to get the great groupon deal and had my massage with Raechel. It was a wonderful relaxing experience. For my first massage I didnt know what to expect I didnt want to be in pain, she made me a believer. It was awesome!
What a wonderful experience! Rachel is knowledgable and can convey tips and helpful hints in a manner that was understandable. The massage was fantastic and I will definitely be back! Already booked a return visit for my husband!
I really enjoyed my experience. I came in with back and neck tension and Rachel really helped these areas. I feel a lot more relaxed overall. Also she was very informative about what things I could do to further help my issues. Will be back soon!
Raechel was extremely inviting. Her home was very comfortable. And she was just great at focusing in on your sore areas. She is professional and just a great person.
Raechel is my favorite massage therapist!! First of all, she takes care of all the details so you feel relaxed from the very first moment: everything looks great and smells great, there’s relaxing music playing, and there’s a clean, comfortable and private atmosphere. The massage table’s temperature can be adjusted to suit the preference of each client. She uses hot towels if desired, as well as the perfect amount of warm massage oil. And then there’s the actual skill involved! She is not one to just zone out while massaging. She was constantly aware of my reactions to each movement of her hands. Though I didn’t need to make any changes to the way she was massaging me, she seemed very open to feedback, and very willing to make minor adjustments based on a client’s needs. It felt VERY relaxing, to the point where my mood was lifted for hours afterwards, and tension I didn’t even know I was storing was gone. Even though I came in just to relax and feel good, she helped me afterwards by letting me know that my Achilles tendons were stiff and could use extra stretching exercises for optimal health. This pleasurable experience has been good for my health and my mood altogether. Although I don’t live that close to Massage Sci, it’s worth it for me to drive to Holland, get a massage from Raechel and then visit the Lake Michigan beach afterwards. It’s a wonderful experience altogether, which is why Massage Sci gets my repeat business!
Raechel did a great job on my shoulder and lower back. She provides a peaceful, comfortable atmosphere and is full of great knowledge and tips!
Was having upper back pain after straining it. Had two massages and they worked great to relax the whole back including the problem area. She also gave some great advice on other things I can do to deal with the pain and avoid more in the future.
If you’re thinking about getting a massage, this is the place to go. Nowhere else will you find someone so well informed and invested in their practice. From helpful tips to increase general health to specialized spot treatments, she will have you feeling better than you ever would’ve thought you could feel. I cannot praise her enough. I hope to see her for as long as possible and you can bet that I’ve told every one of my family and friends about this place. It’s worth your time and money, trust me.
Great massage, very nice massage room. Raechel was very good at making me feel comfortable and working on my problem areas. Happy to support small business.
Professional, individual directed therapy with at home recommendations to help with pain relief. Felt very comfortable with Covid precautions maintained at Raechels location.
I was listened to at the consult, and made to feel that it was important to help me feel relaxed. Not only was the massage fantastic, but a shared knowledge was given to me during the massage that will allow me to help myself during flare ups with my back.

Had a great experience with Raechel. She is very knowledgeable as she gives you tips and pointers on how to improve problem pain areas you may have
Raechel puts her knowledge of massage techniques and pain management to work during every session, and is able to get to the heart of the issue without causing pain.
I have been to many different massage therapist in the area and Raechel definitely is the best! Also, has a ton of useful information for people who are into weightlifting!
Wonderful place, such a calming atmosphere and I left feeling comfortable and at peace. I went for stressed muscle tension, and I was provided with so much information of why and how I can fix it at home along with massages. Very thankful!
Very laid back. Rae is knowledgeable and willing to work with me on any of my needs.
She did a fantastic job! She is very professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone with muscle issues!
Just had my first massage yesterday. Came away feeling very loose and relaxed having worked some kinks out. Feel great today and Im looking forward to my next visit.
As a Massage Therapist, I can truly appreciate Rachel’s skill and proficiency with each and every muscle she treats. Can’t wait to return!
