Customized Massage Therapy

Terri was amazing! It was my first visit and she was warm and friendly. I have been getting super intense trigger points in my glutes and soreness in my heel and Terri was able to use her magic to work these out! I had gotten a massage 5 days earlier elsewhere for the same issues but when I got home, it started cramping and the trigger points felt bruised. Terri fixed this immediately and not only did the bruising sensation go away, it hasn’t cramped up since!
Will definitely be back soon!

I have been getting massages for years… lots of different spas and masseuses… and think I know the difference between someone who knows how to give a massage for pleasure and one who becomes genuinely in tune with your body and uses her powers and talent to heal. Terri, at Customized Massage Therapy, is the REAL DEAL. I found it incredible how Terri was able to find the areas in my body that were giving me problems (that even I couldn’t direct her to) and alleviate the tension, stress and pain. Terri is consistently amazing in her craft… and I cannot say that I’ve experienced a better massage — after 90 minutes with Terri, it’s an experience of feeling awesome, bliss, and that foggy state of being in the zone all rolled into one!

Francisco is a first rate massage therapist, conscientious and trustworthy. I’ve been going to him since June of ’14 and he has helped me so much. At first, my muscles, back, neck, shoulders and ankles were causing me so much trouble I needed to see him every other week to ease the pain, but now I can manage to get by on one appt a month, or even less often. He really knows how to work out the tightness and aching so that I walk and sleep better – he always remembers my sore points and what works to eliminate them. I wish I had the time and could afford to go twice a week just for the luxury of it! Btw, massage is not just for whippersnappers under 50 – I am 72 and think the world of him. Old or young, male or female, large or small, Francisco looks forward to the challenge of helping YOU!

I have know and had massages with Terri for 4 years. I have chronic neck and back pain and was told to have neck surgery shortly before I meet Terri. The pain was so bad that it felt like I had a 50 lb. bag of flour sitting on my head. I tried PT, massages, medicines, acupuncture, etc… A friend told me about Terri and where I could find her, at the time 4 years ago, she was at a different massage establishment. I looked her up and started seeing her twice a month. After several months my neck started feeling better, no irritating neck pain. Granted, it isn’t a miracle cure but the relief I have continues to this day. I still see her twice a month because my neck will never be 100%, maybe not even 75%, but not to have that constant pain that I would sometimes cry over is a miracle to me! Terri is very professional and asks me before she starts how my body feels so that if necessary she can concentrate a little more in that area. I would highly recommend her for massage. She understands the body, and just recently she discovered an area near my left shoulder blade that has been causing my left side of my face to go numb several times a week when I move a certain way. She wrote down what the muscles are called so that I can share it with my doctor. Just two weeks ago when I had an appointment for something different I asked him about this face numbness he suggested a scan of my head, maybe not now thanks to Terri. I really can’t say enough on how excellent she is. Give her a try several times to start with if you have some aches and pains, tightness etc… If she doesn’t help in someway I would be very surprised. By the way my wife has had serious issues with her back and neck, (car accident), and sees her twice a month also, but I will leave that review for her. The reason I am writing this four years later is because she wasn’t on Unilocal until she went to work for Customized Massage Therapy.

I LOVE the Internet. I especially love the ease of online scheduling. So imagine my giggles when one afternoon as I moaned and groaned from too much hunching I came across Customized Massage and their last minute spot! OMG I could not get into sweats fast enough!
Franciscos spot is quiet, warm, private and clean. But really … What matters … FRANCISCO!!!
Francisco is SUPER intuitive. I don’t have to tell him what is creaky. He finds it and makes it go away.
I could gush for days but I would rather just book ANOTHER appt. You should too.

I’ve experienced other massage therapists, but none better than Francisco. Working with him regularly since September 2011, and NEVER disappointed. His professionalism is exceptional, and the massage… well you’ll just have to find out for yourself. Like several others here, I’m reluctant to share my secret weapon, but he truly deserves to succeed. Honored to be his 24^th consecutive 5-​star review. BTW– the reviews «not currently recommended»? Five more 5 star reviews, and one nut job. I’d put Francisco’s record up against anyone in the business.

I’ve had my share of good and bad massages in my life but Francisco is the real deal. He adjusts based on my tension spots and really works the knots out. Wish I could go everyday.

Francisco is awesome! I have been seeing him 2 – 4 times a month for more than 5 years. I’ve had back issues for most of my adult life, and honestly, I don’t know what I would do without him! He is very intuitive and truly cares about his clients and their specific concerns and health issues. His reception area and therapy room are beautiful decorated, providing a warm and calm atmosphere. And the best part is that his prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended!

What can I say about Francisco and Customized Massage Therapy?. First, I’d be lost without him… seriously! He is my «Healing Angel,» and with all my neck, back, knee and sciatica/​nerve pain issues, I could not survive my 40 hours per week at work. My hubby and I have been going to Francisco for more than 5+ years, and have recommended him to several people who absolutely feel the same as we do. His experience, expertise and overall professionalism is hard to find in masseurs. Before we met Francisco, searching for the right person that I can wholly trust, and whom would not injure me, was an exhausting, and for the most part, very disappointing task. I have been to several and would never leave Francisco… he is by far THE BEST in the Bay Area. We so look forward to our monthly appointments. You are an AWESOME massage therapist. Muchisimas Gracias Francisco for all that you do for Hector and I!

Francisco is a superb massage therapist. I highly recommend him. He has helped the tension in my shoulders and in fact every time I see him I feel 100% better. He is one of the best. Make an appointment today!!!

I decided to come in for a massage after lingering neck and back pain from whip lash. Getting a massage from Francisco has been one of the best decisions I’ve made! I feel so much stronger and it has made a huge difference overall. He makes the massage experience a seamless one, and I walk out feeling so relaxed and rejuvenated!

Francisco is great! I went to him twice for prenatal massage and I will definitely go back. He’s been doing an amazing job alleviating my shoulder and neck pain and preventing my migraines.

Both my husband and I have been seeing Francisco for about 6 months now — we are thrilled to have found a massage therapist who is so good at what he does, and reasonably priced. Although, because the price is reasonable, we probably get twice as many massages… I love how he has an online booking system that’s easy to use so I don’t have to call in or wait for someone to email me back. He’s super friendly and professional, the place is very pleasant, clean and quiet. We’ll definitely continue to come here for our massages!

All I can say is wow. I have had tons of massages in my lifetime and haven’t in 15 years of getting massages found someone as intuitive and knowledgeable. I have had rotator cup problems since I was a teenager and whenever I get stressed, work on computer too much, I have sharp, unbearable shoulder pains. He went right to the problem and alleviated the tension. I usually love painful massages b/​c I want the therapist to go deep into the massage. Francisco’s massage is actually not painful but at the same time, was deeper than any other massage I’ve had. I think it’s b/​c his movement is slower so as to get maximum therapy and minimal pain. Anyways, I’ll definitely be coming back. Oh and he is affordable too!

Wow. I just had my first massage with Francisco earlier today, and I have to say, it was one of the best deep tissue massages I’ve ever had. He really knows what he’s doing, and he’s also a very kind and genuine person. Highly recommended.

Francisco’s massage is therapeutic and that’s what I look for in a massage therapist. That combined with Francisco’s pricing equates tremendous value. I also appreciate Francisco’s flexibility with scheduling as I try to keep a regular time, but some weeks I need to reshuffle. Furthermore, and if I’m 5 or 10 minutes late [something I’m working on as it’s not a good habit!], if he doesn’t have a client right after he will give me my full time.

I got a gift certificate for this place, and of course I checked it out on Unilocal before I went. The good reviews didn’t lead me astray! Francisco was great and very professional. I appreciated that he texted me the morning of my massage to give me very clear directions on how to get there. That was essential, because his place is hard to find! With his instructions I had no problem figuring it out, though. His place seems to be just him, so it’s small — just a reception area and the massage room. However, it was nicely decorated, relaxing, and plenty big enough. The massage itself was wonderful. At one point I’m pretty sure I drifted off to sleep because I was so relaxed! Definitely a nice way to treat yourself.

Francisco really knows his stuff — I’ve been going for a year or so now and I always get the 1 hour full body massage. His work on hands, feet and shoulders especially is really precise and very effective in getting out the tension!

Had my first prenatal massage with Francisco and Im used to deep tissue massages. All my tensions and knots were alleviated, finally. He is great with deep tissue and yes, pregnant women can have deep tissue massages! Wow, seeing him again soon! Btw he knows prenatal massages well!
Update: I still go to Francisco post pregnancy. He provides the optimal amount of pressure to loosen the knots and also finds them in areas I didn’t know they had existed. If you need a relaxing moment, this is the place. His pricing is very reasonable for what he does. I hope he doesn’t get too booked up now.

BEST massage Ive had in the Silicon Valley in the 7 years I have lived here
Francisco was magic and within 10 mins I knew he was the One!
My body is relived and I barely want people to know about him, as i know he is going to be in demand. Anyone who really wants a therapeutic massage to recover from injury, or just work deep issues to get aligned and awakened needs to book an appt.
You are Awesome Francisco — AWESOME!
