“My treatment with Alison was a true blessing. Not only did she address my ailment deeply and with such attentive care, she addressed me as a whole person with the same respect and love. Her vibe is soft and nurturing yet highly intentional and direct. She is truly gifted with touch and intuitive with energy. I have not received such generosity in the 100s of massages I've had around the world. A true magician, healer and beautiful human inside and out. I feel immediate relief for my longstanding nagging knot, and I know Alison put me on path for total healing. So much gratitude. Highly recommend.” - Lee Marie

“Resolve was recommended to me by a friend and I’m so grateful. I’ve seen 3 different massage therapists (Jo, Jamila, and Ali) and they were all amazing. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with anyone here, for any of their range of services. The atmosphere is soothing, the therapists are attentive and highly skilled, and the fact that they have a parking lot in such a great location is a miracle ;) My new go-to spot for sure.” - SarahGrace

I've been to a couple of sessions at Resolve, with Tyler. Typically, I don't like being touched very much as it quickly leads to sensory overload, so I was apprehensive at first. At the beginning of our first session Tyler asked a number of pointed, but gentle, questions about why I was seeking massage therapy and what I was hoping to get out of it. I described my general aversion to touch and he was very understanding and encouraging, offering methods that we could use together to build trust and ensure I would feel comfortable. He gave me tools to express how I was feeling in the moment, levels of pressure and pain, and listened intently to everything I and my body said to him. Throughout the session he described everything he was going to do before he did it, continued to talk about it as he was doing it, and checked in frequently to ensure I still felt comfortable continuing--all greatly appreciated and exactly what I wanted. At the end of the session he acknowledged that, despite the point of the session being physical and mental relaxation, it was still therapy, and to take the experience and rest with it. He offered me pointers on self-massage and small exercises I could do to help with some of my daily pain, and recommended some of his colleagues for specific issues and experiences. This didn't feel like just a massage--it felt like a collaboration. I quickly booked a second session and I will certainly be booking more in the future, with him and other therapists at Resolve.” - Patrick

“Came here for my first ever massage, and I cannot wait to go back! My therapist, Eleanor made me feel incredibly comfortable the entire way. The energy in the building is very calming and relaxing. If I could get a massage weekly, I would. 10/10!” - Brian

“Tyler helped me alleviate my chronic knee pain I was experiencing from an autoimmune illness. He gave me advice on things I could do at home and educated/communicated with me throughout the process. It was obvious he knew what he was talking about- great experience! Thank you!” - Pamela

“I’ve been getting massages from owner Mackenzie for YEARS! And I count have been happier when she found this space. It’s so comfortable and cozy. I love the dark lights and warm atmosphere. I’ve seen several massage therapists here and have thoroughly enjoyed the care and experience from each of them. I have a membership and Resolve was very helpful and understanding when I needed to pause it during financial difficulties. Couldn’t say enough great things about this place!!” - Brae

“Resolve is an amazing establishment with the most incredible staff. I had no idea what I needed when I walked in, all I knew was my body was in desperate need of pain relief. I had been working at a warehouse as a picker, and the work was so hard on the tendons and muscles in my hands that they would go numb at night unless I slept with a brace. MacKenzie got me set up with a monthly slot, and Ashley worked her magic on me. She was very intuitive and listened to my needs--she even showed me small things I could do at home to help alleviate pain and mobility issues. I can't say enough about how great this place is. I think we all hold on to a lot of pain and tension without realizing it from day to day, and I truly believe that everyone could benefit from getting bodywork done at resolve.” - Amber

“What an overwhelming feeling to be able to walk away from a bodywork session experiencing more relief than I have possibly ever felt! The effects of the session continued like shock waves over several days and each day, I felt and experienced a shift both mentally and physically. Having a combination of bodywork and abdominal unlocking from such an skilled, passionate and knowledgeable healer is a gift that I hope everyone can experience.” - Tiffanie

“10/10 experience with Josie. Incredibly knowledgeable, just the right amount of communication. I have terrible shoulder mobility/discomfort from my career and she absolutely nailed it as far as addressing that. Booked again for next month and my wife booked later this week.” - David

“Resolve Bodyworks is my 100% preferred bodywork service provider. Their massage & herbalist services are excellent and well worth the price. I highly recommend this business and have been a loyal customer here for over 3 years.” - Allie

“Definitely home to some of the best therapists in the city! Jo is my "go to" but all of the therapists seem to be very knowledgeable in their disciplines. Myofascial cupping is generally what I need and this place does it best.” - Robert
