Overall excellence. Facility, atmosphere, staff and practitioners. I've been a holistic health practitioner for over 20 years and I won't go anywhere else for my own self-care.

Cannot say enough good things about Awaken Wellness! I got my husband a gift certificate for a well needed massage as a Christmas gift, and he couldn't have been happier. I haven't seen him this relaxed in years, which is saying something. Ali was incredible and highly recommend.

Highly recommend AW! Finally realized that, at my age, massage isn't just a luxury, it is necessary. I have had 2 in the last 2 months - Susan and Allie. After Susan, I joined the monthly membership. Susan got. me started on healing my lower back pain. Allie got the 'best' of me yesterday! Took a spill on my bike the day before and jammed my shoulder. She spent the whole hour working that mess out. It's a start and I can't wait until next month! I figure in a few months I'm gonna be a new woman! - I'll let you all know.

This was my first time visiting this location. The atmosphere was great. Brian at the desk was nice and professional. Vicki was very thorough at my nutritionist appointment. I look forward to coming back for my second nutritionist appointment and acupuncturist appointment.

This place has truly made me love massages. I never felt relaxed to enjoy them but decided to give it a try after having severe anxiety. Melissa was so amazing I went back the following week. The place itself is very clean and felt safe with covid protocols. Also the I can't begin to describe the amazing professionalism and kindness of the front desk staff. Also love how easy it is to make an appointment and you can fill all your paper work online. Truly a great experience. Can't wait for my upcoming acupuncture appointment.
