Raechel is the most thoughtful and skilled massage therapist I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She takes time to listen carefully in order to understand exactly what you need and how massage can help. If you're recovering from an injury or have specific goals for massage therapy you can't go wrong with Massage Sci.

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 wouldn't trust anyone else with real massage therapy needs.

Absolutely wonderful care provider in a calm, comfortable atmosphere. Raechel is clearly knowledgeable and serious about client care. She is professional and welcoming

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.

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've had pain between my shoulder blades fit decades I could not get rid of. Many years of chiro PT and massage therapy. Sarah had an approach that addressed direct root cause and I walked away with issue resolved after only one session. It was shocking after years of a sticky clicking problem in my back. Hard to believe but she dug into problem area in a deliberate way where she seemed to know anatomy and cause so well.

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 can't be beat! Overall a wonderful experience.

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.

I have been going to Massage Sci once a month for the last couple of years and it has made a world of difference. I highly recommend this service and I love being able to schedule online.

I love how cozy and convenient Raechel's home-based studio is. She is great with those chronic aches and pains that need some TLC, not The Hulk. I appreciate how science-minded she is, but it comes with a sense of humor. (Keep an eye out for her Halloween decorations!)
Her pricing is transparent and never feels like a hard sell, or a trick.

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. I've 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 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!

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. :

Reachel is very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and hospitable. She does a great job of doing a consultation before our massage in order to pinpoint problem areas and issues. As a result every massage is personalized just for you each time. The only downfall is the appointment is over way too quickly.

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.

We started with Raechel using Groupon and now, we are clients. The last massage I had was for a specific area - upper back, neck and shoulders. And, because we are now clients, she is getting to know us and where we struggle physically to better serve us long term. Raechel also gives helpful hints and techniques to use at home. We are so grateful we found Massage Sci!

In January 2016 I was recommended by my physician to get deep tissue therapeutic massages to address some painful muscle spasms across my upper back.so I booked a series of 3 massages with 3 different therapists in the Holland and Douglas area. Massage Sci was the best experience. The massage was very professional and done by Rachel, someone who knows her physiology and who has some very good training / experience behind her.

She applied just the right amount of pressure and gave helpful tips on how to strengthen muscles in my back that would ultimately counter act the condition long term. The treatment space is in a small ranch home on a property adjacent to a professional office park and easy to get to. The space is open, airy, very clean and not loaded with heavily scented candles etc.

The table was warmed up with a pad and very comfortable. The massage itself was very good and probably one of the best I have ever received. I will definitely be scheduling regularly here and it is well worth the trip from my home in Fennville. Highly recommended!

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!
Cathy Dorn
Raechel had a very peaceful room in the front of her home for the massage treatment. The experience was very relaxing and helpful. She concentrated on problem spots without the painful deep tissue pressure. Highly recommended :-)
Shelly Blanski
Quiet, clean and so relaxing. Raechel was precise in her description of the massage, was very mindful of my achy joints and I loved the heated table. Her lotion smelled good and it was a great massage.

Raechel does a fantastic job! I had shoulder surgery and she really helped with getting my range of motion back as well as relieve stress from other muscles that were over compensating for injured shoulder. She is great at getting that "knot" out of my back as well. Always feel so good after seeing her. Highly recommend!

I have been looking into different places for therapeutic massage ... Raechel was professional and I feel like a whole new person. She gave me advice about how to help myself at home between visits.
