Emily Liolin

Emily’s hot stone massage is pure delight. Deeply soothing, supportive, restorative, healing and inspiring to further take cake of my body. Her floor work has improved my husband’s sports related lower back and knee pain vastly. She is a body genius.

Love Emily’s massage, especially the double session of Thai massage with all of the ways it stretches the body, then hot stone massage. Yummy! Leave melted! Emily is so sweet and kind and gentle, yet with enough pressure and depth to really serve my body.

I recently had a hot stone massage from Emily and it was absolutely wonderful. I would say it is the best massage I have ever had. It really helped to ease my lower back pain and I left feeling very uplifted and as though I was walking on air.

Emily is a truly gifted healer and I am grateful for the many sessions we have had together. She offers multiple types of body work modalities and allows for you to make the choice of what you are needing. She clearly has an attuned awareness to anything in the body that may be out of alignment or needs a little extra attention. I honestly feel like a new woman every time our sessions are complete. I find more fluidity and ease in my movements and experience a deep sense of peace. I highly recommend her healing touch!

I have had body work from Emily several times, and it has been so wonderful and helpful. She has a really calm and confident style that always puts me at ease. I Her table work leaves me feeling completely renewed and alive. I had also never experienced a floor/​Thai massage before, and wow, what an amazing experience. It was so lovely to be on the ground, and left me feeling as though I hadn’t only had a massage, but that I’d done yoga for an hour too! Definitely my favorite massage therapist, and she has such a lovely grounded energy too.

I have received multiple massages from Emily. Both, Thai massage and a lovely deep tissue massage. Both made me feel wonderful and relaxed! Its the only massage that I have fallen asleep face up. And not only is she a great masseuse, she is the sweetest lady ever! Love, Love, Love!!!

I had a wonderfully restorative massage from Emily. She knows what she is doing and I felt completely confident in her skills while receiving Thai and Shiatzu.
I highly recommend giving her a chance to help you feel well!

Some might think that getting a massage in the middle of a farmer’s market might be counterproductive. Nope. Not with Emily’s hands on you. She’s one of my favorite massage therapists, specializing in Traditional Thai Massage, Shiatsu, and some undefinable, yet healing quality that Emily brings to her practice.
Few things in life are better than getting bodywork from Emily on a sunny day. I generally check out and take a few minutes to look around & figure out which planet I’m on. It’s a great way to end a visit to the Berkeley Farmer’s Market.
The massage tent is at the Berkeley Farmer’s Market on Center Street near Milvia Street from 10 am to 3 pm. On cloudier days, The therapists in the massage tent have blankets to warm their clients. There are other therapists that work there, but Emily’s one of the best.
Note that Emily’s quite busy, but if she’s not available and you’re lucky, Catherine Rinaldo might be working with her. Catherine has her own style, and she’s every bit as wonderful as Emily.
Both charge me $ 45 for 40 minutes, although you can choose different times. I’m stuck at 40 minutes. I suggest you don’t wait until the last minute, ‘cuz these two are busy. Do tip them, since they’re worth it & it’s a challenge to create such peaceful, healing environment in the bustling market
