Dale R. Says, Relaxed overworked muscles

Had some issues after overdoing it on a recent landscape project. As always TC knew exactly what to do to relieve the pain and recommended some exercises too avoid the problem in the future. Her expertise is incredible. Never had a better therapist.”

Eric L. Says, Worked out the Kinks!!!

Had an issue with some tendonitis in my right arm. TC worked out most of the knots and congestion. My arm felt better than it had in quite a while. Will definitely come back for more when I’m back in town.”

Angie D. Says, Absolutely wonderful!!!

I came to TC on recommendation after a total loss car accident. My body was traumatized and in very fragile condition but TC was attentive, thorough, and sensitive since day one. She created a safe and trustworthy atmosphere, and amazed me at how she seemed to know what was happening in muscles and tendons more than I did. I’ve since recommended several people to her. One even said she outranked masseuses in San Francisco. You’re missing out if you haven’t been yet.”

A.T. Says, Attentive & Caring

T.C. worked on a problem area where I had experienced nearly constant pain for several weeks, even while walking and sleeping. After a deep tissue massage, I noticed significant improvement within 24 hours. She really knows the muscles and how they interact to pinpoint problems and quickly resolve them. I am very satisfied and will recommend her to others!”

Susan B. Says, New client

I had a great experience with TC, she asked me lots of questions and listened to what I told her about my issues. TC, tailored my massage to just what was right for me. I have had massages before, but nothing like this. I felt really good after. I plan on going back soon for another massage with TC.”

G.N. Says, Relaxed and Professional

Relaxing environment. T.C. is professional and pays attention to the needs of the client. I will be back.”

Carli S. Says, Relaxed, comfortable, and a great massage!

TC was wonderful!! My husband heard about her from a friend and bought me a gift card for Christmas. It took me til August to use it because I’ve had a couple less-than-satisfactory massages from other places. I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable I was with TC. She was engaging but not overly talkative, which was perfect for me. Technically, the massage was great! I will absolutely go back and have already recommended her to others!”

Leslie Z. Says, Body Massage know how

I do not frequently have a massage, but since I was in need of one I was referred to TC. I cannot stress how impressed I was with her knowledge of the body and how well she explained what she was doing and its effects upon the different body parts as they related to your own injuries and healing process.”

Michelle L. Says, Complete body massage

I have been to numerous massage therapists over the past 15 years and no one can compare to TC. TC knows the function of every muscle in your body, unlike other therapists, therefore is able to pinpoint exactly where to concentrate to reduce your symptoms. TC is prompt, professional and an amazing therapist!!”

Robert S. Says, Deep Tissue Massage

I have been receiving Deep Muscle Massage every other week for last 10 years. I am in good health and enjoy freedom from pain which I attribute to routine massages. Massage has kept me from having symptoms & illnesses that are associated with chronic stress. TC is gifted, very knowledgeable and excellent therapist.”

Keith S. Says, Deep muscle massage

My wife and I have been taking deep muscle massages for at least 5 years or more once or twice a month. We credit these massages for 50 percent of our health improvement over the years. TC is blessed with a special healing touch.”

Linda L. Says, lymphedema drainage massage treatment

Have been looking for someone who understands lymphedema and the proper way to evaluate and give the type of message needed for the stage of lymphedema that presents itself that day. Thanks TC for your input and work you did on my leg to get it down, it is a constant moment to moment struggle to keep the leg from swelling, After all your good work Bill still did a couple of hours at home. – I am happy to have met you and look forward to another session on Friday, May 11th. – Linda L”

Marian B. Says, GOOD

I am not sore today and my left hip is a little better. It is very cool here today so dressed warm and I am going to take a very warm shower and dress warmly again. Trying not to abuse a good thing! Thanks for going to “bat” for me on Monday, TC. I really appreciate your input to my Dr. Hugs, Marian”

“S” Says

I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy a year ago. Bells is thought to be caused by the herpes (cold sores) virus attacking the 7th cranial nerve. Symptoms include partial paralysis to one side of the face, as well as extreme weakness and exhaustion. Symptoms manifest themselves quickly, within 3-5 days. Typical recovery can take several weeks to several months or longer. I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy on Day 3 of my symptoms. I went to TC on Day 10. The right side of my face was droopy, my right eyebrow was 1 inch lower than my left, my right eye did not blink, and I could not smile. She did a combination deep tissue massage, acupressure and gently worked my face and neck. I came home feeling energized for the first time in over a week. I saw and felt changes immediately. I was so excited I made two more appointments for the following week. I wish I had a picture of the look on TC’s face when she saw the remarkable change in my face! The rapid improvement was truly miraculous. I am so very thankful for incredible health care professionals such as TC, who use their art of touch for healing. TC is extremely knowledgeable in not only massage, but also nutrition and cleansing. She is quick to share a variety of tricks anyone can do on their own at home. A year later, I continue to prioritize regular massages with TC and highly recommend her to all. Thank you, TC, for your loving and professional care!”

Beverly Hahn Says

TC,

On Friday the 7th of March I was in quite a lot of pain with my sciatic nerve in my left hip and leg. It was fortunate for me that my husband gave me a gift certificate for Mother’s Day to use on Friday for an hour and a half massage with you. Your attention to my problem area and the way you listen to what my needs are is a blessing indeed. God has given you such a wonderful talent not only with your massage abilities but your whole persona and sweet disposition. My left leg “shimmered” all day Friday and sleeping was tolerable (whereas it wasn’t since Tuesday). Saturday my hip was uncomfortable only when I brought my left ankle up across my right knee to put on my socks and shoes. By Saturday night I felt no pain at all. I drank lots of water as you always remind me to do after my massage and the nice cold bottle of water that you give right after every massage is a refreshing way to get started. Your thoughtfulness and care are very much appreciated–I can hardly wait for my next massage!!”

Lynn Nicholson Says

This has been one of the most user-friendly services I’ve ever encountered. To be able to book appointments online, and to purchase massage packages online, really suits my needs. And it goes without saying that Art of Touch is the best therapeutic massage company I’ve ever dealt with. T. C. Youngblood is not only professional, but puts the client at ease also. She is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of massage and health, and has helped me for many years now.”

Beverly Hahn Says

Dear TC -

I just wanted to thank you for doing such an excellent job on my massage last Friday. Later that day my whole left leg had that “shimmering water” feeling to it and I figured that my nerve was shaping up! I didn’t have pain sleeping that night but  it wasn’t quite healed. I kept drinking my water! By Saturday I only felt a slight discomfort when I put on my socks and shoes in the morning (bending at the hip/waist). By Saturday night I was a new woman!!!!

God works through those hands of yours. I am so thankful that I am able to experience your experience!

I hope your massage therapist was able to help you get the results your were looking for!”

Ginger Says

Dear TC -

I meant to write you sooner, but you know how it goes. Smile. Ken really liked his massage that you gave him. He wasn’t sore and he said you did just the right amount of pressure. Thank you so much. I was very pleased with my Valentine’s Day present to him. I suggested he do it more often and he said he is going to try to do just that.

Thanks again”

Mary T. Johnson Says

I am a registered nurse and have long been a believer in the many benefits of massage, having seen first hand its positive effects on patients in the Intensive Care Unit … I’ve been lucky enough to have Theresa “TC” Youngblood as my massage therapist. I’ve had many massages over the years, but TC’s technique far surpasses any other.”

Paul T. Nagengast Says

Scheduled maintenance massages by TC has ensured my well being through periods of stress, physical injury and/or any other ailment relating to soreness of back, shoulders, legs, etc. I would recommend (and have recommended) TC to anyone who requires therapeutic massage maintenance.”

Sandi Ingram Says

I suffer from Fibromyalgia, active in all eighteen trigger points. I have found therapeutic massage to be more help to me than any other treatment, especially with TC. She is extremely knowledgeable in her field as well as very trained. She goes beyond basic massage to incorporate compassion, kindness and, understanding … I would recommend her to anyone who thinks he or she might benefit from the wonders of therapeutic massage.”

Forrest E. Greek & Adella E. Greek Says

As a massage therapist she (TC) is one the best. She works hard and always goes the extra mile … She is extremely professional. She is very caring … and it shows in her work as well as personality.”

Jeanne Clark Says

TC has been wonderful at finding the “problem spots” and working on them. She has a lot of knowledge about muscles and nerves and how they all work. I always feel that I am in good hands when she works on me. I would highly recommend her as a massage therapist.”

Mary L. Trost Says

TC is very knowledgeable and skillful in “deep tissue” massage, which is what I need. She is very good at finding those places in the body that hold on to stress and encouraging them to let go … TC is always welcoming and respectful during my appointment. I highly recommend TC to anyone who wants a good massage.”
