Julia has taken care of my prenatal and postnatal discomfort and I can’t recommend her enough. She is probably the best therapeutist I have had. She is extremely professional and caring at the same time and provides a perfect experience every time. She works with you to make sure your needs are met and in my experience she has always found issues even without me telling her (like old muscle injuries that she focus on without me specifying). She has amazing touches like having tons of pillows when I was pregnant and putting extra towels now that I am nursing. These make me feel so comfortable and at ease, it’s difficult to describe the wellbeing feeling I leave with after a massage with Julia. A true healer.

An oasis of calm! I received a cranialsacral session from Julia a few days ago and the benefits continue to unfold. Her presence is so grounded, nurturing, and generous, and I found my keyed up nervous system begin to relax as soon as I lied down on her table. Cranialsacral work is so powerful, soothing and restorative, and the effect is profound on a whole different level than an oil massage. Julia’s studio has such good energy and the location on Solano is so easy and accessible. Highly recommend the work of this bodywork wizard!

As I sit here quarantining and daydreaming of some bodywork, I realized I have never left a review for the exceptional work I’ve received over the years at Stillness Massage.

I deal with chronic neck, low back and hand pain. Was looking for a skilled massage therapist. Her description mentioned Trigger Point Therapy and I am very familiar with this skill. She did not use any massage techniques. Only a simple rub down without pressure of my arms and back. Most of an hour went toward Healing Touch therapy which is leaving ur hands in one spot for minutes and then another spot. I kept thinking when does the massage begin. The music was so low it couldn’t be heard. If u want a Stillness Massage then that’s it, being still. I left there with more pain and it continued for my flight across country days later.. I was so disappointed to spend $160 on a 90 min massage here.

Very attentive massage! Julia clearly knows what she’s doing. I’ve had many body workers do a good job, but Julia surpasses them all by far! She’s intuitive in knowing if certain muscles need more attention and skillfully works on those spots, while tending to the rest as well since it’s all connected. I now schedule appointments in advance with her, I’m so happy I’ve found her!
