Soul Flower Wellness

Lovely place. As others say don’t be fooled by the outside. Laska was one of the best masseuse’s I have tried. It was an all-​over massage. Really good. I would definitely go there again.

Stopped in this Saturday to use a Gilt deal I purchased for a 50 minute massage with Lindsey. The front of the building is pretty old and not the fanciest spot so I was a bit hesitant to head up to the space but I was so pleasantly surprised when I walked in. It is super clean, very nicely decorated, modern, and so welcoming. I was offered water and coffee right away and provided the standard paperwork. Lindsey took a good amount of time to understand what I was looking for in my massage before we got started which I really appreciated.
The massage itself was great! I get massages very frequently at all different spots around the city probably once a month paying both full price and trying different Gilt coupons depending on current deals and this was definitely up there as far as quality. Lindsey did a great job working out the tension in my shoulders which is a tough spot and even threw in an incredible scalp massage which I am not accustomed to in a normal massage, it was a great addition. I will 100% be coming back and would be more than happy to pay full price for a treatment here.

Had a massage with Laska and it was amazing. I asked for medium to heavy pressure and she did not disappoint. She asked a few questions about preferences and went to town. It was so relaxing and my body feels great. Would definitely go back. One of my best friends goes there as well and swears by Lindsey so you can’t go wrong at SFW.

Don’t let the exterior fool you; this was one of the best massages I’ve ever had! As soon as I arrived, I was greeted and offered water. My masseuse, Laska, then asked me questions to personalize the massage to my needs.
Because I told her that I have had shoulder pain, she focused a good amount of time on them. While it was definitely painful at times, it was completely worth it because she took out almost all of the knots in my shoulders (and there were plenty)! Throughout the massage, she asked me a few times whether or not the massage was firm enough or not, an important question to me as I am very particular with my needs (and one not asked enough by masseuses)!
After the massage was over, we sat and discussed my areas of tension. She even provided me with suggestions for how to reduce my shoulder pain outside of getting massages!
I highly recommend Soul Flower Wellness because of the peaceful atmosphere, thorough massages, attentive employees, and eye pillows!

My husband and I went massage therapist «shopping» two years ago by using a lot of Groupons. We each had a lot of so-​so and not-​so good massages. Then we found Lindsey and we have been seeing her monthly ever since. She gives an amazing massage and her space is so clean and relaxing. We look forward to it every month. Thank You Lindsey!

My husband got a gift certificate for SFW back in 2013 and shortly after his first visit signed up for a monthly massage. After raving about Lindsey, I signed up for a monthly massage and have been going for over a year and a half. If your looking for a high quality massage from an amazing person, go to SFW!

I got a Living Social deal to Soul Flower wellness. It was a wonderful experience. The spa was clean, colorful and comfortable. It was easy to make an appointment, and they were kind enough to give me an appointment reminder. I was taken on time and I was given a great massage! I saw Lindsey and would definitely go back to see her.

Some people are born to do what they do. Lindsey is one of those people. A gifted massage therapist, she has an effective, efficient deep tissue technique, a loving touch, and a great disposition. Highly recommended.

I don’t know how so many people gave a good review to this place. I’ve had many good massages in my life and this is NOT one.
I bought a groupon for a 60 mins massage but only got a 50 mins massage in person. I wanted to talk to someone from the massage center before booking an appointment. But no matter how many times I called on their phone number, it always used to go to the voice mail. Lindsey returned my call after 3 days! I anyways ended up booking an appointment through their website for a 60-​mins Deep tissue massage with Lindsey.
I let Lindsey know before she started massaging about stiffness on the right side of my neck and she said she gets many «neck cases» and that she’ll do all she can to reduce the stiffness. The massage was really bad. She literally used her elbows and pierced into my neck and shoulder. When I told her about the pain, she said it will be painful and that I have to bare the pain in order to lose the stiffness. So I tried my best to endure the pain. It was a very horrible experience. It wasn’t relaxing at any point. My neck was hurting from immediately after the massage. Slowly over the next couple of hours my neck and shoulder became ROCK SOLID and they pained like shit. I had to turn my whole torso if I wanted to turn my neck. It was horrible. I couldn’t sleep in the pain. She bruised the muscle on my neck and shoulder so much that I couldn’t use it atall. I had to hold the wright of my head with my hands when I was trying to lie down or get up to take the pressure off my neck and shoulder muscle. I literally took pain killers and I had to apply heat packs and bengay to reduce the swelling and stiffness. This is day 3 and though the swelling has reduced a little, my neck still hurts.
Over all, I had a very bad experience and I would never go back there.

Update: A year and a half later she is still awesome! My chronic neck and back pain are less intense and less frequent. I wish I could see her everyday. I work, go to school and travel often on weekends. Between both of our busy schedules, she still manages to find appt times for me. Thanks Lindsey!

Like many others I purchased a Living Social deal for SFW and that’s where I heard about them, back in December of 2013. I have visited several other massage places in the area and was looking for one massage at a good price.
I got an appointment with Megan and she was wonderful. I was «roped» into signing up for the monthly membership simply because Megan was so great and I wanted to have her work on me again. I am definitely on a budget (freelance musician!) and wasn’t sure I could part with $ 80 every time I needed a little relaxation. It was a much better deal to be billed monthly and have one massage a month for $ 60. I also liked how it was a flexible system and you can cancel your membership at anytime. Of course I loved Megan and after two massages with her she moved to Spain! I was sad. :’(
So I scheduled an appointment with Lindsey for the third month, thinking if I didn’t like her I’d cancel the membership and move on. Well, here we are, nine months later, and I’m still happily seeing Lindsey once a month. I’m finding that it is TOTALLY worth setting aside $ 60 a month to have an appointment with a knowledgeable, experienced massage therapist. Lindsey is FANTASTIC and she is also a yoga teacher. I really believe that having those two areas of knowledge (massage and yoga) really complement each other and gives her an edge over other massage therapists. She knows how the body works and she can really work magic. Seeing her on a regular basis has improved my overall health and body awareness.
Scheduling was a bit difficult at first, because usually it seems there’s only one staff member there at a time (Lindsey) working on clients and also answering the phone. Now that she has the online scheduling program it’s much easier.
As someone else already said, if you’re not sure about trying SFW, do it. Go. You won’t be sorry!

Lindsey is the bomb. She is professional but still very warm and personable. My neck and back was in a mess when I went in to see her and even after just an hour, I was feeling better. Admittedly there were some moments where I really had to breathe to push through some soreness, and she made sure to give me a heads up before a particularly intense segment on my neck. Lindsey really knows what she is doing though, and my neck felt tons better after wards. I probably melted into the table by the end.
Scheduling can sometimes take a little longer than other places that implement an online system since she also takes the calls and emails between clients, but she is as prompt as possible considering that fact.
Definitely considering taking advantage of the monthly plan now!

Lindsey is amazing!
I stumbled upon Soul Flower through Living Social, and I’m so glad I did. I went into the appointment with some skepticism about massage, as I had gotten a one at a chain place (which shall remain nameless) a few weeks prior to my massage with Lindsey and was unimpressed. The massage therapist didn’t explain what he was doing, and didn’t seem to care about his job. I left the massage not feeling any different than when I went in, and I also faced pressure from the staff to sign up for a membership.
Lindsey made me see the light about massage. She was professional and was very knowledgeable. I really felt the passion she has for her job, and the work she did was fantastic. The pressure was just the right amount, and she checked in to make sure that I was comfortable throughout.
I left the massage feeling so much better than when I went in, my tight muscles were loosened, and I actually felt energized. Lindsey makes you feel like she truly cares about your health and well-​being. I will absolutely be returning!

Lindsay has always been phenomenal. She’s professional, accommodating, and clearly very well trained. The new office is beautiful, clean, and relaxing. I’ve been very grateful for her monthly subscription discount, which can be canceled at any time free of charge. I would highly recommend a massage from Lindsay, whether you’re under a lot of stress, dealing with an injury, or just looking to relax and treat yo’ self.

Let me start by saying that I was so looking forward to getting a massage here since the reviews are OUTSTANDING and yet I left disappointed. Not due to the massage itself, the quality was great; I’ve had Alex work on me before. It was the fact that she decided to bring her cell phone in the room with us and left it on vibrate… AND IT KEPT GOING OFF. I’ve had many massages over the years and I have NEVER had my massage therapist bring their cell phone into the room, leave it on vibrate, and STOP MASSAGING ME TO REPLY TO A TEXT! I found that to be so unbelievably unprofessional. Ughhhhh I’m so disappointed.

Lindsey is hands down one of the best! I bought an amazon voucher to use here and I’m so glad I did! I had been trying to find a good massage near me and had been hopping around using groupons hoping to stumble on a good place… I stumbled into massage heaven!!!
I can’t help but plan on signing up for the monthly plan– she’s fantastic. If you’re on the fence; just go see her. It’s well worth your time and money.

I had one of the best massages of my life today and not because it was prenatal and craving one. It was just a fantastic massage and now even better knowing how great Lindsay is with prenatal. Parking is easy in Brighton center so even if you don’t live in neighborhood you should make the trip. She has a fantastic non-​committal monthly program.

I went in for a Pre-​Natal massage with Joan-​Ellen and it was amazing! She asked if there were any specific «problem» areas and made sure to hit those areas. My back and hips have been taking a beating due to how far along I am and the fact that I was at a conference all week and on my feet for most of it.
I have a three year old at home in addition to being 8 months pregnant, so being away from the house for an hour was pleasant enough, but after the massage I felt like a whole new person ready to tackle whatever mess was waiting for me.
The location is easily accessible, and easy to find!
Just a great experience all around and I will be going back!

As an athlete, I am always looking for someone who «gets it» and is willing to pay attention to the cues of my body. Lindsey is that person. Even if I feel that nothing is tight or knotted, she hones in on it. She can adapt to whatever pressure you want (or need!). The hour always goes by too fast. I ALWAYS feel better at the end.
Easy parking, nice new space in Brighton, and reasonable prices. So happy to have found her.

Lindeys hands move like the ocean.
I’m a photographer and am am on my feet half the time and hunched over a computer the other half. Lindsey worked with me and listened to my concerns about my shoulders and lower back. She intuitively knew exactly where my pain was and worked her magic.
After the massage she gave me a lot of stretching advice so that I can continue to take care of myself.
I plan on making this a lasting relationship.
The space is also super beautiful and clean to. Very relaxing.
