Kristen is an AMAZING teacher with great energy and her body work is top notch. In just a few moves I was already feeling less pain in my low back! Her teaching style and touch comparisons make it easy to see what improvements you need to make to be successful at NLPR. I would happily take another class taught by Kristen and can't wait to get a 4hr session next time to help my alleviate some of my chronic pain issues. 10/10 highly recommend 🫶🏽

She is THE BESTTTTT. I feel brand new now with no pain. My body feels so relaxed still and it's been 3 days since I've had the massage. I've had multiple massage therapists before Kristen but she was the only one that took my pain away! Super recommend her!!

My massage with Kristen was amazing! I didn’t realize how tight my muscles were before my appointment with her. I left feeling so relaxed! Highly recommend! And cuddling with her pups was a sweet bonus!

I’m 65 years old and recently had my first Thai massage and it was truly amazing! I had terrible lower back pain and the way Kristen worked on my entire body relieved my pain and left me feeling incredibly relaxed, loose, refreshed AND I got the best pain free nights sleep I’ve had in a long time that night. She always made sure I was good with the amount of pressure she applied. You can tell Kristen is highly skilled and has found her passion for helping others. I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with stiffness, back pain, or just needing to feel refreshed. I’ll definitely be going back!

She is calming, confident and attentive to you and your body. Feels her way to just the right places and relieves the tension you may not have known was there. When you leave you look forward to another session-you feel that good. Do this. You won’t regret it

This was the most unique and amazing massage I've ever had in my life. The amount of things that were able to be truly worked on and improved was phenomenal. If there was 100 stars, I would give her 100 stars!

Kristen is amazing at what she does. I have never experienced the type of massage/body work that she delivers. She makes you feel comfortable and at ease. She checks in frequently during the session, listens, and is attentive to your needs. She also make adjustments for you so your comfortable for the whole session. She is willing to answer any questions you may have and she is extremely knowledgeable. She definitely deserves more than a five star rating. I highly recommend Kristen. If you’re looking to get the best massage of your life Kristen is your massage therapist. Definitely should check her out you will not regret it.

I had the privilege of receiving a Thai massage from Kristen while she was visiting Fredericksburg from Austin, Texas to teach. It was truly the best bodywork I’ve ever experienced in the U.S. Her skill, presence, & healing touch created such a transformative session. I’m so grateful my friend Eve made this happen, & I highly recommend her to anyone who gets the chance to work with her. Thank you, Kristen, for sharing your gift! Can’t wait for my second session next week🤩🙏.

I wasn’t so sure about Thai Mat Massage until I decided to go for it. I had carpal tunnel and lower back pain for weeks. Kristen was very understanding of my pain and showed compassion. I am glad I came here because it relieved the pain I had. I still need to stretch my body daily. Two hours was worth every bit of my time. Thank you, Kristen. I will be coming back here.

Far and above more relaxing, intense, and effective than any table massage i've ever had. While it was one of the more intense trigger point focused bodywork appointments i've had there was zero hangover or feeling of being beat up the next day. 10/10 would recommend.

I’ve been working with Kristen for well over a five years now as my massage therapist, and she’s truly made a difference in my life. I first came to her with debilitating wrist and arm pain from a repetitive stress injury (tendinitis) in 2019. After consulting my doctor (always consult your medical professional), I was given wrist guards to wear while sleeping and advised to take it easy. However, nothing changed, and the pain persisted. I reached out to Kristen and explained what was going on. She shared her own carpal tunnel experience and recommended that I book a session. After just a few sessions with Kristen, the pain in my wrist and arm was almost completely gone. I continued with three more sessions, and needless to say, the pain completely disappeared, and everything returned to normal. I even stopped using my wrist guards. Fast forward to today, and I’m still a regular client of Kristen for over half a decade. She is truly a therapist and healer. Thanks, Kristen! Chris G.

Kristen is the best massage therapist I’ve ever used. Her knowledge of her craft and ability to make her clients feel comfortable is second to none. My session was almost 3 hours and I felt like a different person immediately. I was initially nervous because I had never experienced Thai mat massage, but after the appointment, I felt so flexible and relaxed that I never want to use another modality. If there was a way to give 6 stars I would. For those looking to improve flexibility, mobility, and to find their new favorite therapist, look no further.

I went to Kristen with shoulder pain that I had been dealing with for several months, and holy crap this girl is thorough! The massage was amazing, she asked all the right questions, and made sure I felt comfortable communicating any discomforts rather than just baring through them. Her experience really shows, and less than two weeks in, my months-long shoulder pain is almost gone. Can't recommend Kristen enough!

Kristen is a magician. i have chronic neck pain from a long-ago accident and of all the massage therapists i’ve seen over the years, she is the only one who immediately sees on a deep level what is going on with me. i’ve had bodywork from her multiple times over the last few years and this is always the case. she really helps me! she’s a straight-shooter (no new age craziness) with a big heart and great skills. thank you, Kristen! highly recommended.

I was gifted a massage with Kristen and it was wonderful. I had nearly locked my neck with stress and had little range of motion. Kristen not only got my neck moving again, but she loosened me up in areas where I had not realized I was tight. She was also an intelligent and delightful companion during the session. Highly recommend.

I've never had a Tai Massage and wow what a difference after only one session (2hrs). The combination of stretching, pressure, and energy work really makes a difference. Not gonna lie Kristen I have not felt this good in a very long time. You are Amazing and have a gift! You will not regret seeing Kristen!

Kristen is so great at releasing and lengthening every sore muscle I have. She has so much knowledge and it shows in her technique. I would recommend this style of massage to anyone. I can’t wait until my next appointment.

I had a great experience with Kristen! I didn't know what to expect and was a little nervous going in, but honestly I think this was the best massage I've ever had. Kristen naturally makes you feel comfortable, and she's very receptive and attentive to your particular needs. I highly recommend her!

Kristen deserves 10 STARS! I have never experienced the type of massage/body work that Kristen delivered. She is incredible! I watched her Instagram and YouTube videos and had to try it out. The first time I had her come to my house and quickly scheduled another appt but at her location. Both sessions were amazing and she makes you feel comfortable and at ease. She checks in frequently during the session, listens, and is attentive to your needs. She also can make adjustments if you have limitations or uncomfortable in anyway. If something isn’t working or if you can’t handle a certain movement or position, she quickly has another “trick up her sleeve” or way of doing it so that you can still get relief in that area. Initially 3 hours sounded too long but it goes by so fast and I always wish I had booked longer. She answered so many of my questions and she is extremely knowledgeable. It is clear she has 10 years experience. In addition to her being a wonderful licensed massage therapist, she has excellent customer service. She is extremely responsive, a great communicator, checks in with you the next day, and truly cares about her client’s physical well being. I highly recommend Kristen.

Kristen is amazing at what she does. I have come to her consistently for the past two years now and her in depth knowledge, empathy and understanding of how to help my body recover has been so helpful. I had to change up my appointment due to a family emergency and she was so kind about it and still made it work for both of us. I have left each appointment with some new knowledge about how to stretch or help my body. Can’t recommend her enough!

This massage really changed everything for me! I have had severe upper back pain for years due to doing dance/gymnastics at a younger age and over time just hunching my back when using ipad/computer, studying, and sitting for long periods of time.Ive gone to chiropractors and PTs and nothing really provided that fix I was looking for. It was really miserable going to the gym and doing anything as I was easily discouraged when I felt that aching pain in my back. I stumbled upon Kristen and I am so glad I trusted my gut. 3 hours sounds like a long time but it went by so fast & it’s changed my entire summer. I’ve been able to consistently go to the gym & sit and study with the pain in not lingering anymore. The session was relaxing and needed. The atmosphere was perfect and I loved her two dogs that just chilled during the appointment!Thank you Kristen! I am so ready for my next session. :)

Beyond lucky to have found such an amazing massage therapist in Kristen! I came to her with tension/stress/tightness from my neck all the way down to my calves. I work out very hard every single day at the gym, and also sit at a desk for work, so basically my body is always very tight and full of knots. Kristen did an incredible job at getting EVERY SINGLE KNOT over the 2 hour session that I booked. She knows the body incredibly well and knows just how much pressure to apply in any given area. I plan to go to Kristen every three weeks (like clock-work) to ensure my body is in top-top shape and firing as it should! Thanks again, Kristen! You're the best!!

My first professional massage ever, and Kristen did an amazing job. I was fearful of pain due to injury, but she did the opposite and left me feeling amazing!

Kristen is amazing. I was having major TMJ pain and didn’t know Where to turn, then I was recommended to Kristen. After my first massage I had almost instant relief. I went from not being able to chew anything to finally being able to eat. I have had 2 more sessions sense and things are starting to get back on track. She is a life savor! Thank you so much for your expertise. You are such a kind person and I appreciate you so much.

Kristen made me feel all the things, in the best possible way. I came to her with really tight hamstrings, hips, and QLs after a weekend of hiking in Coachella Valley. When she released my hips, I felt it all the way down to my toes. She's a magician and I cannot recommend her work highly enough!

I loved our training sessions for Next Level Pain Relief. Kristen was knowledgable, kind and super helper.

I ran the Austin half marathon recently, didn't train much for it so my body was so locked up the next day. Kristen worked on me for almost 4 hours and it was almost like I'd never ran! Not only does this girl know the body but her massage has a greater impact on my daily function than any other massage I've ever had. Highly, highly recommend!

Kristen is an amazing and gifted practitioner. I’ve visited her for years…sometimes for a specific issue (low back pain), most of the time for general well-being. My wife has noted a significant loosening of chronically tight areas (hamstrings) after a session. I’ve noticed it as well and it’s because I see those results that I keep going back. For years. And I have little doubt I’ll be visiting Kristen for many years to come!

Kristen is amazing. I was referred to her by mutual friends and it has been truly one of the best decisions I have made. I have Cerebral Palsy which means my body lives in a perpetual state of muscle tightness and pain. Kristen and the Thai massage techniques have been incredible in helping with that tightness and regaining flexibility. I cannot recommend Kristen's Thai massage more, your only regret will be that you did not do it sooner.

This was my first Thai massage and it was awesome! Kristen is skilled and listens well. She did a great job helping me feel comfortable with a new modality.

I've known Kristen for some time now. Her Thai massages are just what the Dr. Ordered. Especially if you are a larger person or very active. Always professional, always by the book and always making the experience seem new and not mundane. She even provided my wife Kelley with a pregnancy massage. She absolutely loved it. 12/10 Would absolutely recommend her to any and every person to ask.

I've been having back pain for months, and neck pain for years. Tried everything from deep tissue massages, acupuncture, cupping, chiropractors, stretching, PT's, and nothing had worked. I was unable to play golf and general mobility was even restricted at times. I went to Kristen for one session and I was able to play golf the next day! It was absolutely life changing for me, and I feel very fortunate I was able to meet her. If you have muscles that are tight and restricting your movement or causing you pain this is without a doubt you best option. I've been to many very talented massage therapists and none of them could come close to Kristen due to her style and technique. Easy 5/5 highly recommend!

I would have extremely tight muscles that caused me to have major low back pain. After a few sessions with Kristen, I'm able to move around little to no diacomfort. I visit Kristen every few months when the muscles start to act up (due to constant traveling and sitting at a desk all day long) and always feel much better afterwards.

I can’t rave enough about Kristen, she’s absolutely AMAZING! I’ve been getting massages 1-2 times a month for several years now, first for neck tension due to the Torticollis I was born with which was made worse about 5 years ago when I recked my mountain bike and impinged a nerve in my c-spine. I’ve also seen dozens of massage therapists and Kristen is the best! She’s professional, quickly responds and accommodates a busy lifestyle. Moreover she’s incredibly in tune with the body and makes all the right modality adjustments. I always leave feeling like I’m walking on the clouds!

A session with Kristen is an investment in yourself. I mean this in the best of ways that she is a massage therapy NERD! She us always studying the human body and new techniques. She is all about the client vs what she wants. For example, she could put music on that she likes, but she asks the clients what they wanna hear during their session. She is a pros-pro.

I have suffered from extremely tight muscles throughout my body for 4 years, I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia and this comes with painful flare-ups. During my flare-ups, I schedule with Kristen and immediately feel relief. I have come to terms with the fact that I may always have this pain but my secret weapon is Kristen and the techniques she uses to help me live a more manageable life. Kristen truly invests in her clients’ well-being and I’m grateful for her. If you want relief from pain, Kristen is the answer!

Hi Friends: My Massage By Kristen was award-winning, and I have had many many massages. Kristen is super-knowledgeable and gets the job done; she is far superior to any of my past practitioners. Kristen is the real deal! she was able to focus on my very specific concerns, especially pertaining to TMJ. Thanks Kristen

Amazing relief!! I’ve never experienced this type of pain relief and it was amazing. Before my appointment I had pain in my legs/feet/lower back (many years of service industry and retail) and I feel like a new woman!! I have plans on returning often. Kristen is so accommodating and she puts me and my anxious personality at ease. She really takes the time to find out what is hurting! Can’t wait for my next appointment!!

Massage with Kristen was much different than most massage places. You are on the floor instead of a table, she is applying pressure with feet/elbows/knees/hands/hips instead of just the arms. As well, the tempo of the session was much slower where pressure was applied over a muscle group for much longer than I’m used to. It was very different, but I felt like I was able to open up ranges of motion that were stuck for years. Overall it was intense, but profoundly helpful for my body.

Where do I even begin! Kristen actually listens to your concerns and goals. She reviews notes from each session and clarifies problem areas that need extra work prior to beginning. She can sense your muscles tensing and gently releases pressure, truly listening and reacting immediately to your body’s needs. She’s also very clean and her office is calm and inviting. Her sweet pup journey is also a nice perk! Who doesn’t love an adorable dog who is excited to see you before and after each session??? I went to her consistently while training for my fourth Ironman and my only regret is not trying her out sooner! You rock! If I had ten thumbs they’d all be up for you!!!!

Kristen is awesome! This was hands down one of the best massages of my life :) She takes the time to really focus on problem areas and clearly is very intuitive. Such a peaceful session!

My first massage w/Kristen was 2.5 hours. She blew my mind and my body. I've had hundreds of massages in my life and her technique is seriously one-of-a-kind especially if you use your body for work or intense training. Soon, I'm booking a 4 hours session.

Kristen has been working on me for about 2 years now. She's a pleasure to be around, punctual and most importantly, my sore muscles are always better once shes done with them. I also enjoy Thai stretching with her on my legs. See you again soon.

Highly recommend! Kristen does amazing work and really has honed into her craft. Went for a 2 hour session the first go and wish I had booked for longer. Definitely going to rebook!

Been getting professional massages for two decades, and was blown away by the Thai bodywork mat massage that Kristen provided. Literally, may have been the best massage of my life. And that is saying a lot. I felt lighter and could move better almost immediately after. Wow. I have a dense, tight/knotty physique - a product of exercise coupled with sitting at a computer all day, so having a massage therapist who knows all the pain points and angry nooks throughout my body and is able to apply adequate pressure to "tenderize" my muscles is SO essential! Definitely found that and more in Kristen. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Y’all I just had a two hour Thai massage and I feel like I was born again. I cannot express the uncomfortable pain that I had for a whole week. I said screw the chiropractor and went with my girl Kristen. We used to work together at Topgolf so it was easy relaxing cause I knew I was in good hands. Especially since my good friend Randee Pringle suggested I go to her. She to was suffering from a sciatic nerve killing her and said how amazing Kristen’s massage is. I felt like I was truly listened to and Kristen made me feel like we were in this together. I wasn’t gonna leave her house feeling the same way I walked in. Majority of my massages were nothing like this experience. I’m very happy and can’t wait to get another massage from Kristen. The way she communicated what she was doing and made sure I was relaxed before getting deep in my tissue was amazing. She’s not just doing this for the money she’s here to help you get what you want and to have the best relaxing experience. I’m so pleased with how personal she was I also felt like I was with a long lost friend. If you have sciatica pain like me or just need a good massage she is so worth it. I’ve never left a massage as happy as I was today. I can say that I left this massage feeling completely satisfied and everything was just perfect. If you need a Thai massage and more then Kristen is the person to visit. A Thai massage is no joke it’s my first one and it won’t be the last I love how intense it was but I asked for deep tissue massage and she gave it to me bae bae.

In 20+ years, this is the first review I have ever written for a place of business. I have had massages all over Austin for the past 5 years and this is by far the best I have ever had. After dealing with severe tendonitis in both arms for over a week I decided it was time to visit Kristen. Her application of a Thai massage is without a doubt the fastest-working pain-relief treatment I have ever had. She has a very technical understanding of the human body and a very friendly, welcoming presence that will definitely bring me back for future sessions. Thanks Kristen!

Kristen is a pro. She is patient, kind and an excellent communicator. I love receiving Thai massage and am thrilled to have found her. ✨JOY✨

Great experience, definitely going to return 👍

Exactly what I needed! I had a few nagging injuries from CrossFit. Kristen really listened to what I was looking for and completely tailored our session to address those issues. She incorporated stretching, deep tissue and trigger point releases. Kristen obviously has well above average professional knowledge in dealing with sport related injuries. I would highly recommend her to anyone with sports related injuries that is looking to incorporate massage into their recovery.

Kristen is an AMAZING teacher with great energy and her body work is top notch. In just a few moves I was already feeling less pain in my low back! Her teaching style and touch comparisons make it easy to see what improvements you need to make to be successful at NLPR. I would happily take another class taught by Kristen and can't wait to get a 4hr session next time to help my alleviate some of my chronic pain issues. 10/10 highly recommend 🫶🏽

She is THE BESTTTTT. I feel brand new now with no pain. My body feels so relaxed still and it's been 3 days since I've had the massage. I've had multiple massage therapists before Kristen but she was the only one that took my pain away! Super recommend her!!

My massage with Kristen was amazing! I didn’t realize how tight my muscles were before my appointment with her. I left feeling so relaxed! Highly recommend! And cuddling with her pups was a sweet bonus!

She always made sure I was good with the amount of pressure she applied. You can tell Kristen is highly skilled and has found her passion for helping others. I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with stiffness, back pain, or just needing to feel refreshed. I’ll definitely be going back!

She is calming, confident and attentive to you and your body. Feels her way to just the right places and relieves the tension you may not have known was there. When you leave you look forward to another session-you feel that good. Do this. You won’t regret it

This was the most unique and amazing massage I've ever had in my life. The amount of things that were able to be truly worked on and improved was phenomenal. If there was 100 stars, I would give her 100 stars!

Kristen is amazing at what she does. I have never experienced the type of massage/body work that she delivers. She makes you feel comfortable and at ease. She checks in frequently during the session, listens, and is attentive to your needs. She also make adjustments for you so your comfortable for the whole session.

Can’t wait for my second session next week🤩🙏.

I wasn’t so sure about Thai Mat Massage until I decided to go for it. I had carpal tunnel and lower back pain for weeks. Kristen was very understanding of my pain and showed compassion. I am glad I came here because it relieved the pain I had. I still need to stretch my body daily. Two hours was worth every bit of my time. Thank you, Kristen. I will be coming back here.

Far and above more relaxing, intense, and effective than any table massage i've ever had. While it was one of the more intense trigger point focused bodywork appointments i've had there was zero hangover or feeling of being beat up the next day. 10/10 would recommend.

I’ve been working with Kristen for well over a five years now as my massage therapist, and she’s truly made a difference in my life. I first came to her with debilitating wrist and arm pain from a repetitive stress injury (tendinitis) in 2019. After consulting my doctor (always consult your medical professional), I was given wrist guards to wear while sleeping and advised to take it easy. However, nothing changed, and the pain persisted. I reached out to Kristen and explained what was going on. She shared her own carpal tunnel experience and recommended that I book a session. After just a few sessions with Kristen, the pain in my wrist and arm was almost completely gone. I continued with three more sessions, and needless to say, the pain completely disappeared, and everything returned to normal. I even stopped using my wrist guards. Fast forward to today, and I’m still a regular client of Kristen for over half a decade. She is truly a therapist and healer. Thanks, Kristen! Chris G.

Kristen is the best massage therapist I’ve ever used. Her knowledge of her craft and ability to make her clients feel comfortable is second to none. My session was almost 3 hours and I felt like a different person immediately. I was initially nervous because I had never experienced Thai mat massage, but after the appointment, I felt so flexible and relaxed that I never want to use another modality.

I was gifted a massage with Kristen and it was wonderful. I had nearly locked my neck with stress and had little range of motion. Kristen not only got my neck moving again, but she loosened me up in areas where I had not realized I was tight. She was also an intelligent and delightful companion during the session. Highly recommend.

I've never had a Tai Massage and wow what a difference after only one session (2hrs). The combination of stretching, pressure, and energy work really makes a difference. Not gonna lie Kristen I have not felt this good in a very long time. You are Amazing and have a gift! You will not regret seeing Kristen!

Kristen is so great at releasing and lengthening every sore muscle I have. She has so much knowledge and it shows in her technique. I would recommend this style of massage to anyone. I can’t wait until my next appointment.

I had a great experience with Kristen! I didn't know what to expect and was a little nervous going in, but honestly I think this was the best massage I've ever had.

I've been having back pain for months, and neck pain for years. Tried everything from deep tissue massages, acupuncture, cupping, chiropractors, stretching, PT's, and nothing had worked. I was unable to play golf and general mobility was even restricted at times. I went to Kristen for one session and I was able to play golf the next day! It was absolutely life changing for me, and I feel very fortunate I was able to meet her. If you have muscles that are tight and restricting your movement or causing you pain this is without a doubt you best option. I've been to many very talented massage therapists and none of them could come close to Kristen due to her style and technique. Easy 5/5 highly recommend!

I would have extremely tight muscles that caused me to have major low back pain. After a few sessions with Kristen, I'm able to move around little to no diacomfort. I visit Kristen every few months when the muscles start to act up (due to constant traveling and sitting at a desk all day long) and always feel much better afterwards.

I can’t rave enough about Kristen, she’s absolutely AMAZING! I’ve been getting massages 1-2 times a month for several years now, first for neck tension due to the Torticollis I was born with which was made worse about 5 years ago when I recked my mountain bike and impinged a nerve in my c-spine. I’ve also seen dozens of massage therapists and Kristen is the best! She’s professional, quickly responds and accommodates a busy lifestyle. Moreover she’s incredibly in tune with the body and makes all the right modality adjustments. I always leave feeling like I’m walking on the clouds!

A session with Kristen is an investment in yourself. I mean this in the best of ways that she is a massage therapy NERD! She us always studying the human body and new techniques. She is all about the client vs what she wants. For example, she could put music on that she likes, but she asks the clients what they wanna hear during their session. She is a pros-pro.

I have suffered from extremely tight muscles throughout my body for 4 years, I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia and this comes with painful flare-ups. During my flare-ups, I schedule with Kristen and immediately feel relief. I have come to terms with the fact that I may always have this pain but my secret weapon is Kristen and the techniques she uses to help me live a more manageable life. Kristen truly invests in her clients’ well-being and I’m grateful for her. If you want relief from pain, Kristen is the answer!

Hi Friends: My Massage By Kristen was award-winning, and I have had many many massages. Kristen is super-knowledgeable and gets the job done; she is far superior to any of my past practitioners. Kristen is the real deal! she was able to focus on my very specific concerns, especially pertaining to TMJ. Thanks Kristen

Amazing relief!! I’ve never experienced this type of pain relief and it was amazing. Before my appointment I had pain in my legs/feet/lower back (many years of service industry and retail) and I feel like a new woman!! I have plans on returning often. Kristen is so accommodating and she puts me and my anxious personality at ease. She really takes the time to find out what is hurting! Can’t wait for my next appointment!!

Massage with Kristen was much different than most massage places. You are on the floor instead of a table, she is applying pressure with feet/elbows/knees/hands/hips instead of just the arms. As well, the tempo of the session was much slower where pressure was applied over a muscle group for much longer than I’m used to. It was very different, but I felt like I was able to open up ranges of motion that were stuck for years. Overall it was intense, but profoundly helpful for my body.

Where do I even begin! Kristen actually listens to your concerns and goals. She reviews notes from each session and clarifies problem areas that need extra work prior to beginning. She can sense your muscles tensing and gently releases pressure, truly listening and reacting immediately to your body’s needs. She’s also very clean and her office is calm and inviting. Her sweet pup journey is also a nice perk! Who doesn’t love an adorable dog who is excited to see you before and after each session??? I went to her consistently while training for my fourth Ironman and my only regret is not trying her out sooner! You rock! If I had ten thumbs they’d all be up for you!!!!

Kristen is awesome! This was hands down one of the best massages of my life :) She takes the time to really focus on problem areas and clearly is very intuitive. Such a peaceful session!

My first massage w/Kristen was 2.5 hours. She blew my mind and my body. I've had hundreds of massages in my life and her technique is seriously one-of-a-kind especially if you use your body for work or intense training. Soon, I'm booking a 4 hours session.

Kristen has been working on me for about 2 years now. She's a pleasure to be around, punctual and most importantly, my sore muscles are always better once shes done with them. I also enjoy Thai stretching with her on my legs. See you again soon.

Highly recommend! Kristen does amazing work and really has honed into her craft. Went for a 2 hour session the first go and wish I had booked for longer. Definitely going to rebook!

Been getting professional massages for two decades, and was blown away by the Thai bodywork mat massage that Kristen provided. Literally, may have been the best massage of my life. And that is saying a lot. I felt lighter and could move better almost immediately after. Wow. I have a dense, tight/knotty physique - a product of exercise coupled with sitting at a computer all day, so having a massage therapist who knows all the pain points and angry nooks throughout my body and is able to apply adequate pressure to "tenderize" my muscles is SO essential! Definitely found that and more in Kristen. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Y’all I just had a two hour Thai massage and I feel like I was born again. I cannot express the uncomfortable pain that I had for a whole week. I said screw the chiropractor and went with my girl Kristen. We used to work together at Topgolf so it was easy relaxing cause I knew I was in good hands. Especially since my good friend Randee Pringle suggested I go to her. She to was suffering from a sciatic nerve killing her and said how amazing Kristen’s massage is. I felt like I was truly listened to and Kristen made me feel like we were in this together. I wasn’t gonna leave her house feeling the same way I walked in. Majority of my massages were nothing like this experience. I’m very happy and can’t wait to get another massage from Kristen. The way she communicated what she was doing and made sure I was relaxed before getting deep in my tissue was amazing. She’s not just doing this for the money she’s here to help you get what you want and to have the best relaxing experience. I’m so pleased with how personal she was I also felt like I was with a long lost friend. If you have sciatica pain like me or just need a good massage she is so worth it. I’ve never left a massage as happy as I was today. I can say that I left this massage feeling completely satisfied and everything was just perfect. If you need a Thai massage and more then Kristen is the person to visit. A Thai massage is no joke it’s my first one and it won’t be the last I love how intense it was but I asked for deep tissue massage and she gave it to me bae bae.

In 20+ years, this is the first review I have ever written for a place of business. I have had massages all over Austin for the past 5 years and this is by far the best I have ever had. After dealing with severe tendonitis in both arms for over a week I decided it was time to visit Kristen. Her application of a Thai massage is without a doubt the fastest-working pain-relief treatment I have ever had. She has a very technical understanding of the human body and a very friendly, welcoming presence that will definitely bring me back for future sessions. Thanks Kristen!

Kristen is a pro. She is patient, kind and an excellent communicator. I love receiving Thai massage and am thrilled to have found her. ✨JOY✨

Great experience, definitely going to return 👍

Exactly what I needed! I had a few nagging injuries from CrossFit. Kristen really listened to what I was looking for and completely tailored our session to address those issues. She incorporated stretching, deep tissue and trigger point releases. Kristen obviously has well above average professional knowledge in dealing with sport related injuries. I would highly recommend her to anyone with sports related injuries that is looking to incorporate massage into their recovery.
