"...massage became my monthly friend..."

My experience with massage began in 2007 when my close friend gave , me an EquiVita gift certificate after my husband died. I had been working out for 2 years with personal trainers but never felt the need for massage, probably because I had no idea what I was missing. As I began running longer distances I scheduled massage appointments after my longer training runs, 8-10 miles. When I decided to train for a full marathon in 2009, massage became my monthly friend following even longer training runs and Cheryl was my very best friend on race day afternoons (right after the chocolate milk!). When EquiVita began offering memberships with free 30 minute monthly massage it was clear to me that I had been missing the most important components of my training: the relief from pain, release of tension, reduction of stress and very simply how to relax and enjoy my accomplishments.

I had been trying to alleviate my back pain for over 20 years through multiple medical avenues when my chiropractor referred me to EQUIVITA for massage therapy. During therapy it was suggested that I augment massage with strength training. I was quite doubtful seeing that I had been in physical training before, but I was willing to try. I desperately wanted to lift and wrestle with my young son. To my amazement, the EQUIVITA solution solved my back pain problem where other programs could not. I am now doing things I have not been able to do since I was 20 years old. Some may want to try traditional approaches first, but when that doesn't work, come to EQUIVITA. It's not a quick fix, but then good things seldom are. It is a lot of hard work. They do a great job, and I would recommend them to others. I've been coming for several years. ~Pete Since I started seeing Erika Hughes at Equivita it has been life changing for me. She is an amazing massage therapist! She first asks you questions on what is hurting so during your appointment time she really works on that area & somehow she makes the time to also work on your entire body. When I say work she really has the perfect pressure & she will adjust to however you need it. I generally need her to dig in deep. It is amazing to me of how she can push in certain areas to give me such relief. There are many times that I have hobbled in to see her & after an hour with her I can stand up straight & walk out. And that is what I mean by life changing!
