great massage

by Chris Brown at Citysearch

This was my first massage and a great experience. I wasn't sure what to expect, but Tye let me know up front exactly what to expect. Her storefront studio is well decorated - a great place to relax. She communicated throughout (minimally) just to make sure I was ok.

I would recommend Sankofa to anyone without reservation - though you do NEED a reservation before showing up.

• Pros: professional, great ambience,
• Cons: none I can think of

Fantastic Massage!

I was very comfortable talking with and getting a massage from Tye. In talking with her before the massage began, I was able to describe to her what I was looking for--and she got it exactly right. During the massage I was able to relax and completely zone out and found it easy to tell her if it was too much or too little. I will be back!

• Pros: A comfortable place to have the perfect massage for you!

Professional and Sincere

Sankofa Massage is one of only a few places that I have truly fell enjoyed receiving a massage from. Tye (Owner/Massage Therapist/All Around Sweet Person) is respect and sensitive to not just my stated needs for the appointment but often reads my body well to work out areas of stress and knotting that I did not know existed. Every time I go, I learn new things about my body and how the muscles, gravity, and skeleton interact. She's gentle in terms of aligning the body and placing in a position into which it can be worked on, but provides exhilirating deep-tissue massage that reenergizes my entire body. Her decorum and her personality provide a reflective and warm environment which allows clients to feel comfortable and relax so the work itself is proven even more effective.

• Pros: Thorough, High-Quality, and Just Downright Amazing
• Cons: None that I can think of
