I came to Nicola with severe tightness in both calves that had been in horrible shape for years. I was having a hard time even going on walks because I was so knotted up. In just 1 session Nicola was able to loosen up the muscles so effectively (it was a bit painful but necessary) I can now almost touch my toes! With his great advise on self massage, ice and using a roller, my calves are like they used to be 15 years ago, I feel great about it. Thank You Nicola!!!!!

After a slew of dissapointing massages from other therapists, I got a massage from Nicola on Monday and it was extraordinary. He's truly a master. I recommend him if you're someone who needs deep work but finds that most others don't seem to get deep enough or have the strength or intuitiveness to massage you like you need. Plus, he is kind, welcoming, and easy going. I felt totally comfortable with him, which was important, since being massaged is a vulnerable thing. Many thanks! I will be back whenever I visit Santa Barbara!
