"This was my first experience with barefoot massage but it will not be my last! The massage itself was relaxing but the biggest surprise for me was how well I slept the night after my massage. Clearly a lot of built up tension was released, which allowed me to relax into a peaceful slumber."

"I’m 47 years old and have had discomfort in the area of my SI Joint and surrounding muscles in my lower back and hips for several years. One visit to Mary-Claire to work the area out completely made me a new person. After 4 days I’m still lucid and ache free. I now know how to treat my issue with massage therapy!!"

"The overall experience was unique. I love the her space. I had specific focus in which she focused a great deal. The next time I'll try a full body no focus. The main thing is my body feels better. I would definitely recommend this place I haven't seen anything like it in the city. "

"1st time I ever saw someone getting a massage with feet was in a movie years ago, didn't even think it was a real thing. finding out that it existed was a shock. I was asked about what type of pressure I preferred and I told her to try and hurt me and I'll tell her when it's too much. let me tell you that the pressure that can be delivered is 10 times that of any hand. don't fret she can definitely go lighter if that's what you prefer. I'll definitely be a long-term client"

"Hands down, rather feet down, one of the best massages I have ever had. Mary-Claire is the best in the business. She quickly and accurately identified areas on my body that I didn't know were tight. After the massage, I felt 100% better and will make this a part of my wellness plan. I highly recommend scheduling a 90-minute barefoot massage for anyone looking for an effective and therapeutic massage. "

"Mary-Claire was phenomenal! The massage she gave me was pure bliss. She was able to relieve tension from areas I subconsciously activate due to stress.

"Mary-Claire is a dream massage therapist. Her ashiastsu technique is one of the best I’ve experience; intentional, slow, tailored strokes instantly put you at ease on her table. If you are in Cincinnati, it’s worth the trip. I only wished I booked for 2 hours instead of 90min."

"Excellent overall experience. From walking in the door: the office space and the massage room are beautiful and set just the right mood of orderly calm. I appreciated the attention to the details of my intake sheet. The massage was my first experience of this style, and it was great: deep work, but not painful. Just on the edge. Mary-Claire, I appreciated your focus and concentration, so that the massage felt very expansive. It can be disappointing when the massager gives 30 seconds to an area and then moves on. An hour and a half was the right amount of time for a totally thorough massage. I felt great for my music performance last night. Thank you for your professionalism and for you expertise!"

"My massage by Mary-Claire was awesome. She helped loosen up my back in spots where I’ve had pain for the last several months. After the session with her I was able to crack my back after several months of not being able to. She was very attentive to my needs.

Not only does she find all of my troubled spots, but she uses the perfect amount of pressure to relieve my tension!"

She shared some info about the massage and then proceeded to perform the "Best" massage I have ever had. Her skill and experience were evident as she worked my shoulders, neck, lower back, hands and more. The massage was wonderful and I walked away feeling relaxed, stress free and invigorated at the same time. I can't wait for my next appointment. "

I would highly recommend her for a deep ashiatsu massage. Best ever!"

"After 90 minutes of sheer relaxation with Mary Claire, I left feeling so much better. She has magic feet! I went to her with a lot of muscular pain in my back. It is much better after my session with her."

"I am kicking myself for not signing up for a full hour, but it was deep AND relaxing, something I have never experienced in deeper massages. I can't wait to learn it and save my hands. I am still feeling relaxed from the work, where normally the tension would appear pretty soon after a massage. Thanks again. "

"If I was to describe my 90 minutes ashiatsu massage session with Mary-Claire in one word, I would say: OUTSTANDING! This was my first appointment with her so I had to fill out a short form about relevant medical history and areas to focus during the massage. It was nice that we got this done in 10 minutes before the time scheduled so that the massage started exactly on time. She made me feel welcomed and at ease and she started out by a warming up part that gradually transitioned to the more intense part in a perfect way. She listened to my feedback regarding the pressure. She also paid attention to work an all the areas I needed and she did it perfectly, making the muscles melt like butter! Perfect sliding along the back muscles, arms, legs, perfect pressure making all the tension and stiffness disappear! At the end I felt so light and so refreshed! That night I slept like a baby and the next day I was so full of energy! What a genius technique!!! Thank you, Mary-Claire!"

"The massage I received recently was fantastic. The perfect amount of pressure that I asked for, she listened to everything and focused and what I felt needed the most work, and was very courteous and also couldn't have been nicer. I would personally recommend anyone to her that was looking for a wonderful massage from a wonderful person. Thank you again for the outstanding massage."

"Mary-Claire is the BEST massage therapist period. I am a life- long athlete and runner and a former dancer and gymnast. I have had my share of injuries and just aches and pains that go with the territory. Therefore, I have had many massages. Once I found Mary-Claire (through my chiropractor several years ago) I was hooked. She really does have the skill and knowledge to help me maintain a pain-free lifestyle and still keep very active. I highly recommend her any chance I get. "

"Honestly ... Mary-Claire is a Master of her trade. In 30 years of being a massage therapist myself and having received massage all my life, when I found Mary-Claire I stopped looking and stopped going to anyone else. She has a dexterity with her feet and an intuitive skill that totally amazes me every time! I feel so lucky to have a therapist like Mary-Claire that I am willing to drive (actually my husband drives because truthfully I could not even think about driving after a massage with Mary-Claire) the distance over busy highways from my house which is on the other side of town to Mary-Claire, just so I can be assured of a great massage every time ... and I am NEVER disappointed.

"Mary-Claire was friendly and receptive to my first ever massage. She understood my condition piriformis syndrome and explained what was happening to me. Her thorough massage REALLY worked and I left there without pain. She printed out a few stretches to work on so that I can help keep this under control. I will definitely visit again if things get out of control. Thanks so much, Sharon "

"I had an amazing 90 minute prenatal massage from Mary-Claire! At 38 weeks pregnant, she couldn't have made me feel any more relaxed and comfortable focusing on all the right spots. She is very professional and the environment was extremely relaxing. I will definitely go back to her for more massages pregnant or not!"
