"I have been receiving massage therapy from Thecla for over 8 years. Exercise and a healthy diet go a long way to helping improve my performance as an athlete, but recovery is also important. Thecla ensures my body increases blood flow to hard to reach tissues and joints. This speeds up my recovery, prevents injury and relieves aches and pains from sport. She is exceptional in her knowledge of human anatomy and I trust her to work deep tissues without fearing injury or harm." Patrick 10/2020
Thecla has been my Massage Therapist for over two years, and I find her sensitivity excellent. She knows before I do whether my body can take a deep massage, a medium or light. I am a 70+ senior who had a stroke 15 months ago. But within the last five months I find massage is more necessary now to help bring and keep my affected right side in balance with the rest of my body and to lift my mood and energy levels. With Thecla's help this is happening. Helen R 10/2020
“My appointment with Thecla last week was great! I booked only 45min(could have gone for an hour or more). I was very comfortable right away. The room is small but she kept the mask on and so did I. Relaxing, clean and calming; I left her feeling amazing ..so worth it! Sarah 9/2020
Thecla has been my massage therapist for over 8 years. In that time she has helped me immensely by giving me massages at an almost weekly interval. Being a person with arthritis and having had a hip replacement and several knee arthroscopic surgeries, her massage has been instrumental in my recovery. My muscles are more loose and my joints are more mobile. Thanks to Thecla!

She was fabulous. She listened, she checked in during to be sure I was comfortable and she addressed all my needs in a very professional, effective and friendly manner. As a “graduate” of San Francisco School of Massage (Swedish), I tend to know what I want (although with a pro like Thecla, not necessarily what I need–her skills at identifying and addressing needs are wonderful) and know when I’m being taken for a ride. I also appreciate a practitioner who gives the option for little or no talk during. We had a bit of communication and I was able to enjoy without distracting chatter some seem to think adds to the experience. She also had selected great music rather than the corny type I call “Whales in Space” and her use of shea butter was a first for me and a new favorite.

Thecla was just what I needed, thank you! Lovely deep pressure & intuitive therapist. I will recommend her to my SFO friends. Thank you!

Had a deep tissue massage with Thecla Daniel yesterday evening. I had arrived in pain from a muscle strain on the right side of my back and tight shoulder. This is my first time in the studio. I was struck by what a good listener Thecla is, she listened patiently to my history of scoliosis, injuries and other musculo-skeletal issues. She worked patiently to help ease the tension on my upper back and right shoulder, to unlock my scapula. Although I had pain, it was noticeably better after the massage. I was able to sleep last night, without trouble and continue to experience improved range of motion on my shoulder. I would recommend Thecla to a friend; working with her was a very positive experience.
