Thrive is fantastic. The office has a wonderful ambiance to it--very calming and relaxing. The massage suites are simple and clean--no extra buddha flash or random paintings, which I very much appreciate. While you are getting massaged, the office is almost silent as opposed to other offices where you are so distracted by the background noise that you can't relax.

The massage therapists are really Thrive's best asset. They are extremely responsive to your needs. To ascertain your needs, they have a conversation with you every time after looking meticulously over your chart notes from the last few visits. Antonio was excellent--he knew exactly when to apply just a tad more pressure and when to back off. There is truly nothing worse than a massage therapist who just beats you up. You won't find that here!

Lastly, they give you easy, quick stretches that you can do throughout your day that will help with continued improvement. Love it!

Oh my gosh, I am so relaxed . . . just had a massage from Suzanne and it was beyond AWE-some! (Imaging me saying that in a sing-song voice). I have a pretty active monkey mind, so even when I am getting a massage it's hard for me to let go and just be there . . . but within minutes of starting the massage, Suzanne had me in that non-thinking-just-being place. Beyond relaxing. She also used techniques on my neck and back that I had never experienced before, but that right now make me feel as flexible as a yogi, or as a ball of mush.

After the massage, she made sure I was hydrated and gave me some stretching tips to do at home so that my work in front of the computer doesn't get me wound up quite so pretzel-y between visits.

I made my appointment in advance online, but I noticed that they have a board outside their office that lists their free times for walk-in appointments for the day, which I thought was a pretty good idea.

Suzanne will definitely be seeing me again when I need to be turned into a ball o' mush, which I am thinking needs to be much more frequently that I previously estimated. Hopefully she won't think I am stalking her!

Coming to Thrive was a no brainer for me since I know some of the therapists that work here. Being a licensed massage therapist myself I found the Thrive therapists to be very knowledgable and professional in their craft! Thrive definitely spared no expense in ensuring the staff were the most talented in Seattle!
