Kit thoroughly explained the steps of Ashiatsu massage to me and communicated with me during the whole process. They had to cancel my appointment last minute due to unexpected external factors but offered me a discount for rescheduling. This is the first time that I’ve ever received a discount for last minute rescheduling and I really appreciate the thought behind this. The massage itself is very relaxing and similar to a Swedish massage. So if you are expecting deep tissue massage or targeted focus area massage, this isn’t it. But if you want to relax and unwind, this is a great option! I fell asleep towards the end of the massage. The room is also very cozy. Overall great experience and would recommend

I have told Kit directly, but I will say it over and over again: Ashiatsu fixes me. I have dealt with chronic back pain my entire life, and tried literally everything to cope with it. On a whim, I decided to go see Kit...Massage in the past has been challenging for me, as I'm very sensitive to pinpoint pressure of fingers. This means either I don't get the deep pressure needed to help relax my muscles, or the experience is so painful it completely negates all of the benefits. Kit took their time speaking with me, getting to understand my concerns and fears and previous experiences with massage and explaining how their technique worked. After the first session, I was an instant convert. This has changed my chronic pain journey for the better in so many ways. Please do yourself a favor, and give it a try. You couldn't ask for a better experience.

Kit provided a warm and safe atmosphere and using her expertise in ashiatsu was able to get deep without the pain of elbows or knuckles in my muscles. I felt great getting off the table and the days that followed. It was absolutely amazing

I waked in stiff and in pain, and two weeks later I'm still doing well! I had the double foot massage which meant I had enough pressure to get deep into my muscle mass, which was just what I needed (I'm 6' 230lb) to put my psoaz and hip flexo muscles back in order. That, along with my lower and upper back treatment - I'm booked for bi-monthly massages now to help repair the damage I do to myself. Kit is bright, energetic, conscientious, and knows her craft. 100% recommended!

I had a wonderful massage experience with Kit last week. They have excellent communication skills & I felt very relaxed & cared for. Kit did an Asiatsu massage that felt amazing! It’s the first time my low back has felt some relief in years. I’ll be booking with Kit again & again for a 90 minute Asiatsu massage.

This was my first time getting this type of massage, and it worked wonders. My lower back has never felt better—a very exceptional experience. Kit was very professional to work with and explained the process exceptionally well.

Ethan! It's so wonderful working with an in-tune client such as yourself. It makes the work so much easier. Thank you for the review!

Kit was great. The location is a small cooperative inside/near the old Rainier brewery. The door is locked so it takes some extra communication in order to get inside. The intake paperwork was really straightforward. Kit's space is cozy and very welcoming with a sweet studio ghibli vibe. Kit had great communication prior to the massage with talking about what to expect. Music created a nice ambiance, and paired with the heated table, warm towels, and essential oils it was a really relaxing vibe. After the massage Kit gave me enough time to take my time getting up and dressed, and when I was ready I was given a bottle of water before I left. I look forward to returning.

15/5 stars really, Kit is beyond amazing. They worked with me for a standard massage; and an ashiatsu. Both times, minor adjustments were made upon their recommendations to the overall treatment based on my health at the time, so that the massage could be as beneficial to me as was possible. I felt like Kit took my health needs incredibly seriously, and provided not only what they thought would be a good alteration, but specifically why and what the impacts on my body were likely to be. I wish every massage therapist took that level of detail into account when discussing a course of treatment. Truly, the most tailored massage experience I have ever had. Specifically to the ashiatsu massage, Kit is a revelation as to what I feel is possible through massage therapy. The depth of the pressure was something I’d never experienced with this level of delicate control. If you’re a fan of feeling “rolled out” after a massage, but standard hard pressure makes your muscles ache, this is for you. Truly an eye opening experience, and one I’d highly recommend. Overall, if you want to feel seen, heard, and cared for by a professional who takes your health seriously and provides stellar service, Kit is your person. Go see them, and you’ll see for yourself!

Had a wonderful massage experience with Kit! They did an excellent job communicating with me about the experience and addressing any concerns I had. They were also knowledgeable and provided helpful and appropriate suggestions to soreness and tightness issues I was having. Already booking my next session!

First time ever doing something like this and Kit absolutely exceeded my expectations. We had a fantastic conversation and the massage itself felt incredible. The space was very relaxing and safe, as well as the aroma therapy really being nice and adding to the experience well. I really hope I get the chance to go again!

I booked an integrated massage with Kit. It's been years since my last massage, and the whole experience reminded me of what I've been missing! I went in hoping for an overall relaxing experience and a desire to work on some specific muscle groups. Before the massage I gave them a rundown of those areas that I knew needed to be worked, though in the middle of the massage they gave me the option to divert from the plan to focus on an area that was unexpectedly tense. I agreed, and they did some cupping that felt great! I normally keep quiet during massages (the gentle background music and cricket noise machine helped with the ambiance), but found myself chatting quite a bit -- Kit was comfortable either way. I haven't had a massage since top surgery, and I think a big part of my comfort came from Kit's understanding of my background. I felt all warm and fuzzy after the massage ended, and that mood persisted through the evening. I also felt more ease in my movements through the next few days. I have a trip coming up that I know I'll want a massage after; I've got a reminder on my calendar already set to book a massage with Kit when the dates open up! I'm going to try ashiatsu next time. I'm also recommending them to any friend who wants a massage!

Kit is a very skilled massage therapist. My massage was very relaxing and helped to ease a lot of tension in my body. My Oura ring actually thought I had taken a nap!

Kit has great vibes and great hands. The space is phenomenal, the music was prime (Skyrim worked its way into the playlist), the bed is super comfy, and Kit is super respectful of boundaries and makes sure to talk through what's going to happen. For my first massage, 10/10. (even if it wasn't my first, probably still 10/10).

Kit is a great massage therapist! The full body massage was amazing!! Good compression and pressure to relax my muscles. The scheduling form was easy and straight forward, and the website functioned without any issues (Major plus in my book) I was surprised how easy it was to book. Kit worked on my full body, targeting a short bit on my tech shoulders. The stretching at the end was really really great and probably my favorite part! Kit was very thoughtful, asked great questions about problem areas. They did a great job noticing my tight muscles and adjusting as such. Would highly recommend!

Kit is a WONDERFUL bodyworker. I highly recommend them for any of my fellow queers dealing with chronic pain, especially anything tied in with EDS, hypermobility, fibromyalgia, or embodied trauma. Kit was able to work on tension in my body that other bodyworkers have never been able to address and stretch the tense muscles around my joints without causing subluxations or dislocations that increase pain in the following days. They also were able to do work that let me release traumas and emotions that had gotten stuck in my body, and I wound up crying on the table multiple times during our session before experiencing a wonderful feeling of relief and letting go. If you're looking for bodywork but have had mixed experiences with it, or need someone that you feel safe getting into somatic relief with, I HIGHLY recommend Kit.

I was not familiar with Ashiatsu massage before this, but I sometimes have back, neck, and shoulder pain, sit long hours, and had a stressful week before the session. Kit was great about helping me understand how Ashiatsu works, what I could expect, and then adjusting the intensity for me during the session. It was definitely intense but ultimately relaxing. I've never experienced anything quite like this. I could tell that they were reaching deep muscle tissue, yet it was not painful as I might have expected. The short facial massage at the end was also something new for me and felt really wonderful. I left feeling calm and connected to my body. Afterwards I was more aware of my posture and even noticed having more energy all weekend!

From start to finish, my whole experience with Kit was relaxing. The booking process and intake form were easy to complete and the space is quiet and clean with a calming atmosphere. Before the massage even started Kit took time to ask about my previous massage history, what I did or didn’t like about my past massages and very clearly set expectations for what to expect. During the ashiatsu massage itself, Kit’s presence was both relaxing and whimsical and in addition to explaining certain techniques, they checked in on me regularly to make that I was comfortable with the level of pressure they were using without breaking me from that relaxing headspace. The massage itself was fantastic and Kit really did an amazing job of reading my body’s reactions and adjusting without me even having to say anything. And chuckled with me as we worked though some of the tighter area which was much appreciated. Having someone who doesn’t shy away from or hesitate with the therapeutic pain is absolutely delightful. At the end, Kit also asked for feedback as to what they could work on for next time and also gave very clear aftercare instructions, which I appreciated! As someone who lives in a plus size body, it is so hard to find people to feel comfortable being naked around but I was so comfortable around Kit that there was no hesitation from me at any point during my massage. The morning after, I am tender in all the expected spots after a deep tissue massage but also feel amazing! I am very much looking forward to going back for future appointments.
