Sacred Body

I had a deep tissue/​sports massage with Angela and my body feels brand new! I can breath, walk, and generally move so much better than before I saw her. She was very thorough in getting information about my needs and problem areas and very knowledgeable about the body and its needs, and took time to talk me through what she thought was the best treatment for me.
The massage I received was wonderful not only for my body but my mind and soul as well. Angela incorporates yoga relaxation techniques into the massage, which I feel provide a more holistic healing experience. She listens and works with your body to provide the appropriate pressure in the correct places, and, throughout my entire session, I felt tension releasing in a way that was not painful, but relaxing and reinvigorating at the same time.
The building they are in is quite lovely, a hidden gem in downtown Ann Arbor. The massage room itself is beautiful and tranquil. I was provided water with fresh orange garnish before the massage and fresh, sweet orange slices afterwards, which was a real treat and definitely puts Sacred Body a cut above the rest as far as customer care.
I can’t wait to go back!

I have been to Sacred Body three times now, each time with a different massage therapist. For this last massage, I was a little hesitant about getting a massage from a male, but Jeremy was highly recommended by another massage therapist, so I decided give it a try. I am so glad that I did. Jeremy was more sensitive with his hands than the other two female massage therapists I tried and he made sure I was comfortable the entire time, which is a big plus for those who frequent massage therapists. The little things, like light in your eyes or room temperature, make a big difference in your overall therapeutic experience. Jeremy was extremely attentive to detail, which is always appreciated. My massage didn’t feel like the routine slightly painful trauma therapy, it was the opposite; no pain and so relaxing! I usually like to talk with my masseuse to understand what’s being worked on, but I was too relaxed to talk! lol I can’t recommend Jeremy more. My back feels one hundred times better. I highly recommend Sacred Body overall; the massage therapists are so talented and the atmosphere is so calming!

Great holistic massage. I will definitely be returning. Had a little trouble scheduling an appointment because this was a Living Social deal, but once the appointment came, all the trouble was forgotten.

I had 2 massages with Jeremy and he is excellent. I was in a lot of pain on my left side and he was able to improve the situation tremendously! He is knowledgeable about anatomy, amazingly skillful as far as techniques and has a healing touch. I have been to many massage therapists and have to say that this was top notch. Thanks!

I decided to buy one of the livingsocial deals for Sacred Body. My friend had told me that he went and got an amazing massage from Angela and so i decided to give her a shot. I’ve been in multiple car accidents and have a very bad pain in my shoulder and neck area and get constant headaches due to the pressure. After seeing Angela for the first time, the pain i felt just melted away and i also fell asleep during the massage.
She is by far the best massage therapist i have ever encountered and I see her every week or every other week now. She is not only a great massage therapist but also just a really sweet and warm person. I will continue to see her as long as live in Ann Arbor.

i’m a massage once every two weeks type of person and around Los Angeles I have a handful of therapists that get me. When I travel for work, I crave great massage, but it’s often hard to find a good one right away.
Thanks to Unilocal and the great reviews about Angela I found the perfect therapist. Not only is she a lovely human being and phenomenal massage therapist, she is and incredibly intuitive HEALER. It’s always such a blessing to meet someone that can truly help you if you’re open to it.
Angela is so gifted in her intuitive meditation and massage. If you stay open to the vibrational energy she provides you, you will walk out with your third eye wide open and feeling like a zillion bucks. Do yourself a favor and go to her.

i met angela rather randomly in a yoga class and immediately got a very good vibe from her. she’s a very sweet and warm person who translates all those positive emotions into her massage practice.
her massage feels like a meditation, and she uses interesting techniques (like tibetan prayer bowls) to release tension, both physical and mental. it’s the best massage i’ve ever had in the most calming setting. support this amazing, local business in ann arbor. you will have no regrets as long as you’re open to the experience (yes, i know i sound like a crazy hippie, but i’m not, actually. it’s just the massage talking though me!).
if i lived here, i would go all the time.

I also got a LivingSocial coupon for this place. I like the décor of the massage room – it’s spacious and neat and well decorated. It was nice to get away from my boring everyday existence at the lab: P
Stephanie was my masseuse and she is awesome. Her voice is soothing, which I think is important if you’re coming to be relaxed. I wanted some therapy for my aching back/​neck/​leg, but it helped that I didn’t have to be chatty with her as I have been at other places. My brain turned off and I was able to achieve zen more easily than think of things to talk about.
Definitely a good massage place to check out. However, if you want super tough pressure, maybe not so much.
UPDATE: I forgot to add this the few days that followed after the massage, but it turns out I became really sore after my session. The service was really good, just not the outcome which is why I’m taking it down a star.

I would call myself a massage skeptic. That said, I thought Angela at Sacred Body was excellent. She struck the perfect balance between deep pressure to relieve tension and soreness and informed touch to create a deep sense of relaxation and peace. Highly recommended.

I ran a 10 mile race over the weekend — my longest distance ever, and my longest race by about 7 miles. My reward to myself was an hour massage at Sacred Body using the LivingSocial coupon I bought a few weeks ago.
And OMG was it worth it. Angela gave me an amazing massage: intense but not painful, soothing and stimulating, exploring and relaxing every sore muscle and joint. When she started the massage, she encouraged me to thank my body for the challenge it had just carried me through, and to then focus on being present for the pleasure and relaxation — wonderful words of advice, especially in such a relaxing and affirming context.
Thank you, Angela, for a truly wonderful massage. I can’t wait to come back.

I couldn’t agree more. Angela is a rare and special type of massage therapist. Her technique and intuition are several levels of mastery beyond what normally passes for bodywork in common contexts. She is a treasure to whatever community she serves and should be sought out for deep work; core-​body pain and dysfunction as well as swoopy, transcendent flow work. I cannot recommend her more highly.
