Revive Bodywork

I’m often underwhelmed by many massage therapists but can wholeheartedly say that Katie is one of the best I’ve ever had work on me. I walk out of her place feeling like a new person. She always focuses her attention right where it’s needed. Can’t recommend her enough!

If I could give Katie more stars, I would. Excellent therapy for my broken back. As soon as my massage was over, I booked another!

Katie is a great massage therapist with the mindset of a healer.
Ashiatsu is a unique treatment modality which allows Katie to use her full body weight to create unique leverage and therapeutic pressure. As I lay there on the table face down, Katie got me to focus on my breathing, exhaling slowly into the increasing pressure she applied. Using both her feet and hands in conjunction with an overhead bar apparatus for balance, Katie performs magic… alas, there is no better way to describe it.
I think I’ll stop gushing now Katie! See you at my next appointment.

I’ve seen Katie three times now and she is truly fantastic. I’ve fallen in love with the 90 minute Ashiatsu rehab session. The pressure and technique just put me into a totally different state. I found myself a little embarrassed because I caught myself snoring while she was walking on my back!
From the very first appointment, Katie makes you feel very comfortable and really tries to understand what issues your dealing with currently. Then she proceeds to provide one of the best massages I have had in a long time. I’m addicted! All of these 5 star reviews are the real deal. Schedule with confidence!

I’ve been seeing Katie for over 7 years. I don’t want to go to anyone else, ever. There is an energy and touch that are crucial to a good massage — and Katie’s are other-​worldly.

The red devil on my shoulder wants to tell you that Katie is terrible… don’t go there! She has no idea what she is doing! But, that is only because I don’t want her to totally book up! I had my first massage yesterday and it was AMAZING. After years of searching for a replacement, I have finally found my new massage therapist!

Katie is amazing! One of, if not the best massages I have had. I recommend Revive Bodyworks to anyone and everyone!

Hands down, I have never received a better massage than from Katie. She listens before she starts, she listens as she works, and she targets areas that provide relief for me during and after my session. My upper back and my calves feel brand new after her work. She is worth every penny (plus a tip). If you can afford it, roll with the 90-​minute session, or start out with the 60-​minute deal to witness her skills for a first-​timer discount, if it’s available.
I loved the Ashiatsu session I tried last year because of its pressure, but I’m the biggest fan of her sports massage getting firmly into the tissue, fascia, and muscle.
Her customer service is also impeccable, and she makes people feel right at ease. I finally asked Katie after three sessions (I’d been embarrassed to ask any other person) if I was supposed to take my underwear off when getting a massage, and she professionally explained the benefits of going nude under the blankets.
I think Katie at Revive Bodyworks is amazing, and I recommend her highly.
Full disclosure: I’m partially a massage skeptic (although I’ve never told Katie this fact); multiple LMTs have explained their beliefs to me on what massage does for the body. Physiologically, I don’t agree that massage releases built-​up toxins from the muscles into the bloodstream, and I don’t believe drinking a lot of water removes toxins in the bloodstream after a massage. I think hands-​on massage is relaxing for many people because it’s hands on, and I think it helps me personally when a masseuse loosens trigger points. I only get a massage once every 6 – 12 months, so feel (very) free to completely ignore my skepticism. Although I do love drinking lots of water.

Hands down the best massage I have ever had. Katie has created a sanctuary where I can truly relax. She has made a loyal client out of me and my husband!

Believe the hype. You’re seeing a ton of 5 star reviews for good reason.
Honestly, I can’t go anywhere else now because Katie’s that much better and I feel like I get way, WAY more quality for the time/​money spent. She’s really down-​to-​earth and easy to talk to as well, so the appointments feel very relaxing from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out. I’m guilty of being overly analytical when dealing with personal finances (read: I’m cheap as hell), but I feel 100% confident I’m making a good investment every time I schedule a massage with her.
I usually come in pretty stressed out, and always leave feeling fantastic. If you’re trying to find someone who knows what they’re doing and has a gift for targeting and eliminating the aches/​pains/​stress, honestly look no further. This is the place you want to go.
P.S.
She acquainted me with Ashiatsu for the first time as well. My shoulders appreciate the introduction, and I can’t recommend it enough.

Katie and her studio radiate the right vibes, her massage hits all the high notes, and you won’t find a better or more enjoyable person to spend an hour of your life with. The Ashiatsu (she uses her feet) thing is completely next level and basically life changing with a natural high. On top of her skill set, Katie also has an inspiring outlook on life and has helped spark creative juices within me.
Bonus: She also knows Shakespearean sonnets by heart. Which is awesome.

whoa, fantastic massage and outstanding therapist, look no further! I am a regular consumer of massage and can tell you that Katie is superb, second to none!

Katie is amazing! She is so intuitive and really listens to your body. So grateful to have found her and will recommend her to anyone and everyone.

Hands down (lol) best massage EVER!!!
Katie is so dialed into my body. I always leave feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and ready to tackle my day. She is calming, focused and diligent. Her practice is worth every penny I spend and she is someone I recommend to anyone. Katie has the skills to work with all people with all issues. YOU will leave her table feeling amazing.

I wanted to get my girlfirend a fantastic massage for her birthday, so I turned to Unilocal and read all the great reviews about Revive Bodywork, and Katie. Based on these reviews, I bought a gift certificate, and my girlfriend came home from her massage RAVING about how great it was. We’ve both been back to see Katie, and have referred family and friends as well.
I’m not a massage connoisseur so I don’t have a lot of experience to compare to, but I can say that a massage from Katie is always incredible, and she always focuses on the parts of my body that need the most work. I recently had a nasty bike crash and hurt my shoulder, and along with plenty of rest and physical therapy, a massage from Katie has me feeling like a full recovery isn’t that far away.
A great massage isn’t the only thing you’ll find at Revive Bodywork. The entire space is incredibly relaxing, and Katie is just so friendly and enjoyable to be around! Honestly, my only complaint is that it’s sometimes hard to get an appointment, but that’s only because the secret is out, and Katie books up quickly. So plan ahead, book an appointment, and prepare yourself for a wonderful experience… You’ll be happy you did!

Worth every penny! Katie was extremely skilled, I left feeling so much better than I did walking in.
The space is lovely, virtually no noise from the busy 32^nd street below. Quiet, clean, and very comfortable. It feels like you are getting a massage at a luxurious hotel or someone’s high-​end home.
Katie did a little of everything for me, although I booked a Swedish massage. The Ashiatsu was my favorite part, very different from every other massage I have had, and probably the most helpful.
Katie is very deliberate with her hands and seemed to be able to read my body very well and respond with exactly the kind of pressure I needed.
I would highly recommend Revive for anyone looking for a massage!

Outstanding! My first visit to Revive Bodywork was an amazing one.
I have Ashiatsu bodywork performed once a month to help with minor lower back aches from sitting a great part of the day at work. I also do powerlifting exercises such as deadlifts, squats, and other compound movements. Because of the above mentioned this modality of massage helps a great deal to bring my body back to 100%. After checking out some of the reviews here on Unilocal,I decided to give Revive Bodywork a try.
I’m a happy camper. Meeting Katie for the first time was like catching up with a friend again whom I lost touch with over the years. Initially I had minor concerns about the fact that I do have somewhat of a «burly» frame and I need deep tissue work as a result. She reassured me that my body type would not be an issue and in her case, it is preferred.
The ambience of the location is very soothing and I loved the earthy colored interior of the location. Yes I noticed the colors. :)
Treat yourself to an amazing massage. I have no doubts you will love Revive.
Katie will be my permanent therapist for my regular monthly body rehab.

No matter how I describe Revive Bodyworks, my brief summary couldn’t come close to how incredible it really is.
Katie is a super genius mad scientist/​massage ninja, with the skills to destroy any pains that may be causing me grief. Once I step foot in her place I’m always warmly greeted with a Katie signature smile. Then, on to pure bliss.
I have two herniated discs from an old weight lifting injury. I get pain radiating from multiple areas due to my back muscles over compensating in different spots. Katie not only relieves that pain efficiently and quickly, but with such ease and grace that even I’m surprised. She is tiny yet possesses incredible strength and kicks the pain’s ACE right out of the park and you leave fully rejuvenated and feeling 10 years younger.
I had to write this quick review for Revive as Katie has helped me many times over the past few years and I am forever in her debt. My whole body thanks her and I look forward to the epic night of sleep after each massage. I’ve been to many massage therapists and all others pale in comparison. Thank you, Katie. Thank you! I almost didn’t write this review as I feel like I’m letting go of a major secret but I sincerely owe Katie for being as incredible as she is.
FYI– recently they added a new team member to the Revive crew so check her out too!

Amazing. I’ve only had a few professional massages thus far, despite being an avid cyclist and always hearing about the many benefits. I just haven’t had one that I felt really made me want to return. Katie solved that problem. I signed up for her introductory one hour massage this week. Her space is beautiful and sets a great vibe, which really stands out to me. From the atmosphere, to the aroma, to hot towels and music, there were many details that really set this massage apart from previous experiences I’ve had.
And of course the massage itself was incredible. Katie has a great flow and energy as she works on you. The only down side was when my time was up, as I could tell there was more work Katie wanted to do that we didn’t have time for and I didn’t want to end such a great experience. For the first time after having a massage, I can’t wait until I can go back to pick up where we left off (hopefully it won’t be awkward if I’m back really soon).
So overall, coming from a long time cyclist and someone who regularly practices yoga, and appreciates the aspects of massage that not only help my body but also calm the mind, this was just the perfect experience. Hopefully all these great reviews don’t mean I won’t be able to schedule appointments with her before too long, but she really deserves the credit for her business!

Katie provides a very high quality massage and I highly recommend her. Her studio is beautiful and comfortable. She is young and energetic, but has also had enough experience to have developed her own techniques, which are unlike any other I’ve had. It allows for deep muscle work without the pain.
Her whole operation is very professional — website, her approach… top notch all the way.
