My husband said he had the best massage he has ever had from Nikki. She was professional, punctual and provided significant relief to my neck.

Wendy/Scott M. - 06/16/2025

I booked my husband a massage for Father's Day and he really enjoyed it. He said Nikki was super professional and gave an outstanding deep and therapeutic massage. I can't wait to book one for myself.

Sanders P. - 06/11/2025

Nikki is mobile, friendly, and very good at deep tissue work. I wouldn’t use another massage therapist unless she closed shop!

Bharat K. - 06/05/2025

Top notch and very experienced therapist.

Rajwant M. - 06/01/2025

Tina R. - 05/26/2025

Had the best massage from Nikki!! Her knowledge and skills are so much better than any massage I’ve had before and the convenience of having her provide the massage in my home made the experience so enjoyable. Cannot wait to book my next massage with Nikki!

Nancy L. - 05/19/2025

I can't write one thing. Nikki is charming, she puts you at ease immediately. She is prompt. She sets up in a matter of minutes and makes sure you are comfortable. You get to choose the music and the oil of your choice. Do you like deep massage or gentle.? ..She will accommodate. I had an hour and a half of heaven. Everyone deserves to be good to themselves now and then....

Jeannine M. - 05/17/2025

Absolutely exceptional!! The attention to every detail was perfect. I felt like a new person. Best massage ever!!! I highly recommend and endorse.

Tonya W. - 05/06/2025

Nikki is amazing and knows which spots need the most work. She leaves you feeling great and relaxed.

Caren B. - 05/05/2025

I recently had the pleasure of receiving a massage from Nikki after completing a half marathon in Sacramento, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the moment we met, Nikki exuded warmth and professionalism, making me feel comfortable and relaxed.

Throughout the massage, the word that came to mind was "giver." It was clear that Nikki genuinely cares about her clients and is dedicated to helping them feel better. She took the time to listen to my concerns and tailored the session to address my specific needs, focusing on areas that were particularly sore from the race.

Her technique was exceptional, combining just the right amount of pressure and skill to alleviate tension and promote relaxation. I left the session feeling rejuvenated, with significantly less muscle tightness and a renewed sense of well-being.

If you're looking for a massage therapist who is not only talented but also truly invested in your health and recovery, look no further than Nikki. I will definitely be returning for more sessions in the future! Thank you, Nikki, for your outstanding care and expertise!

PS, I had another massage a few days later (pre-scheduled) from a high-end spa in town and the massage was nowhere close to as good as the massage I received from Nikki. Now, I need to figure out how to get Nikki to move to Reno or I am going to make plans to go see her a whole lot more in Sacramento. :-)

Shannan J. - 05/05/2025

Nikki is great, before we even started, she asked where my issues were and what kind of a job I have, to know what she needed to work on. She got every spot, and worked out all the knots! Did I mention she came to the house we were staying in? We had 9 women after a 1/2 marathon and she stayed and massaged every one of us. What a rock star!

Maggie O. - 05/04/2025

Nikki is a top-notch, talented, knowledgeable and professional massage therapist who goes the distance to ensure you are getting an optimal experience. A bunch of us gals traveled to the Sac area from Reno to participate in the recent American River Half Marathon and 5Ks. Nikki brought a heated massage bed and set up candles with soft music to create ambience in the living room of our Air B&B. She then gave 9 45-plus minute massages to all of us, stopping for one short break about halfway through. She easily found those tight spots in our necks, shoulders, backs and hips. We all said afterward that she was the best of the best and knew which parts to hone in on. We’ve booked her for next year’s race recovery already. Highly recommended! You will be glad that you booked a massage with her and lucked into such a great massage experience.

Tina B. - 04/08/2025

Nikki is very professional! She will set up in your home quickly and provide you with a very therapeutic massage experience. Pressure was just right and she is amenable to suggestions if you want something adjusted. I'll definitely use her again!

Nora H. - 03/20/2025

You will never want to go to another therapist again!

Marc P. - 03/12/2025

Very great deep massage pressure. Very professional friendly experience. Highly recommend Nikki's massage therapy services.

Dian B. - 03/01/2025

Nikki is always on time, prepared and ready to start. She will give you just the massage you need at that time, therapeutic or relaxing. Enjoy! A very happy lady in Lincoln Hills. She is excellent!

Anonymous - 02/27/2025

Nikki’s ability to find and navigate problem areas and help them to release is incredible. I appreciate how she communicates and checks in with me as she works. The soft tissue work coupled with deep pressure when needed is an art. Grateful for her hands and her therapy.

Tasha T. - 02/27/2025

Nikki, you are incredibly in tune with your clients’ needs. You are gentle and accommodating. My dad always felt comfortable and relaxed after his massage. Your mobile service was a godsend for him. Thank you!

Janell P. - 02/24/2025

Nikki is great!! I like a good pressure and she brings it! She checks in to ensure that you're getting the best massage ever and are comfortable with the pressure (going lighter or deeper as needed)... but also creates a calming environment with limited chit chat. I highly recommend Nikki!!

Morgan H. - 02/21/2025

Do you want a spa treatment in the comfort of your own home? Book a massage with Nikki. I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She is professional, respectful, asks the right questions, and just gets it; she is compassionate and highly skilled in her craft.

I have had trigger point pain and inflammation for years and I finally feel like I’m in the right hands with her massage therapy (along with chiropractic and doing my own stretching/ice/etc). I have had had 2 massages from Nikki and will be a regular client of hers now. My body needs a lot of work but I’m feeling better already. If you need a deep massage to work out tension and trigger points, Nikki is excellent. Definitely the best massages I’ve had.

She brings everything she needs and goes above and beyond — she’s efficient and organized, setting up her table (complete with a plush warmer under the super soft sheets), her oils (which you choose the scent), and Bluetooth speaker (she even asked if there was a type of music I preferred). She asks just enough questions to know what to work on and asks to make sure you’re good with the pressure and only talks more if you prompt the conversation, which I really appreciate. I could go on and on, but just see for yourself, you won’t be disappointed!

Kristina S. - 02/17/2025

Great deep tissue! Very knowledgeable and helpful in understanding how all the connective tissue works. After having severe neck/shoulder and back pain, I felt amazing once Nikki was done! Can’t wait to book again!

Jake C. - 01/29/2025

The most technical and professional massage I’ve experienced. Highly recommend!!

Debbie M. - 01/27/2025

Angie M. - 01/20/2025

Nikki is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the infrastructure of the body. She is deeply in tune with your needs and aims to improve your overall body health and movement not just provide relaxation.

Ken L. - 01/16/2025

Nikki is versed in many different massage and streching disciplines. It was very nice to get a great massage tailored to my preferences in my own home!

Janine-Analise F. - 01/12/2025

Aside from the fact that you do a good job, you are very flexible and willing to adapt to your clients needs.

Emily J. - 01/07/2025

Ron F. - 01/07/2025

Highly recommend for relaxation and healing.

Jami D. - 12/27/2024

I can't recommend Nikki highly enough as a massage therapist. She possesses all the essential qualities one could ask for: she is knowledgeable, competent, reliable, and professional. Beyond that, her compassionate and friendly demeanor makes every session a truly enjoyable experience. I feel completely comfortable in Nikki’s care, and I wholeheartedly endorse her services!

Richa P. - 12/21/2024

Nikki is amazing, and brings everything to your door step. I really enjoyed my first massage with her, and look forward to many more.

Brianna M. - 12/05/2024

Nikki is amazing!! She's not only talented in her profession, but very sweet and always makes me feel so relaxed and rejuvenated. Thank you Nikki!

Lisa C. - 11/11/2024

Nikki is a true professional. She provided a therapeutic massage working out on the areas in my neck and shoulders that were causing pain. Nikki is a part of my holistic care team.

Steve W. - 10/25/2024

My wife and I are senior citizens. One of life's pleasures at our age is getting a back-to-back couples massage from Nikki in the privacy of our home. She comes to our house, bringing her massage table, a soothing sound system, oils and scented lotions, and even a heating pad for the massage table. She can give a gentle massage or a deep tissue massage, whatever you prefer. Nikki is an expert at finding the knots of tension and applying the pressure needed to relieve the tension. We try to schedule one early evening visit each month. Highly recommended…

Gail P. - 10/11/2024

Nikki was amazing! Completely prepared for a home massage; asked what I needed before, during a d even after. Such an amazing experience!

Deziree C. - 10/07/2024

Very easy going and down to earth and adjusts pressure accordingly.

Peter W. - 09/14/2024

Super attentive to your needs for massage, and the travel to you is the best! Makes me even more relaxed being at home!

Aimee P. - 08/27/2024

Nikki is by far the most knowledgeable, intuitive, and gifted massage professional we've ever had, but most importantly, she is strong and knows how to provide a truly therapeutic deep tissue massage.

We are fortunate and grateful to have found Nikki to help us manage our age related pain and lifestyle/work related injuries.

We ❤️ Nikki!

Faylene P. - 08/12/2024

Nikki is simply the best.....

Lance C. - 04/24/2024

I highly recommend Nikki. I have tried several massage therapist in the last 5 years and I can honestly say that Nikki has been the best. She is inquisitive of your specific needs, courteous and goes above and beyond. She is efficient but not rushed. I hope to continue with her for any future massage needs.

Shelly J. - 04/23/2024

It was indeed a healing experience with Nikki!

Megan M. - 04/15/2024

Jason S. - 03/24/2024

Nikki is amazing and I can't recommend her enough! My back gets so tight and knotted up and she gives amazing deep tissue massages. She is super friendly, accommodating, and it's really convenient that she comes to the house. Both my wife and I see Nikki regularly to keep us in good shape. You won't be disappointed!

Jessie G. - 03/17/2024

Angie R. - 03/08/2024

Nikki is an amazing massage therapist! I was looking for a travel massage therapist for my grandma and was so lucky to have found Nikki. She is so sweet and takes such amazing care of my grandma. She truly listened to what my grandma needs!

I then booked her for a massage for my husband and myself! Soooo AMAZING! I personal have never had a better massage. She listened so well to my needs and I could tell she knew exactly how to get the knots out without making me flinch! I fell asleep for a bit I was that relaxed! (That has never happened before!)

My husband loved the fact that she listened to all his needs and she took her time to focus on them. He loved his massage!

My husband and I can’t wait for our next massage!!!! Thank you Nikki for taking care of us but more importantly THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY GMA FEEL LIKE ROYALTY FOR 1.5 HOURS!!!

Pamela A. - 02/29/2024

I love the depth of knowledge Nikki has about muscles and all the connections. Yes, the next day I was sore, but felt better than I had in a long time. I am adding Nikki weekly as I get my upper back and shoulders back order. And will continue at least monthly to maintain. It was the best massage I have had in a very very long time.

Marlene C. - 02/28/2024

I have had some back issues for several days but after my massage my back feels much more relaxed. I had the massage on Monday & this is Thursday & I still feel relaxed. I am 86 years old so having Nikki come to my home was wonderful. I plan on having her again soon. I recommend her highly.

Sarah F. - 02/28/2024

I've had several massages with Nikki and she is amazing at what she does. She is very professional, always on time and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her!

Wendy H. - 02/26/2024

Tommy K. - 02/21/2024

On time, freinedly, excelent massage, and an overall enjoyable experience. She communicated very well during the massage adjusting pressure and stretches as needed to accomidate my comfort.

Justin V. - 02/16/2024

Nikki is awesome. She's very communicative and gives a great massage. I'm so glad I found her. Book a massage. You won't regret it.

Steve W. - 02/10/2024

My left leg was hurting. My wife arranged an in-home massage with Nikki. Best massage ever! She found knots in my leg muscles, back muscles and my hip -- and knew exactly how to release the knots. I've had massages all over the world -- including Japan, Thailand and Calistoga -- this was my favorite.

Jeffrey J. - 02/07/2024

I've seen Nikki several times. She is always prompt and reliable. The massages are excellent

Sarla P. - 02/07/2024

You are committed to work on the problem area. Great service.

Daphne V. - 02/04/2024

Nikki is great at working out stubborn knots and helping me feel relaxed.

Carol A. - 02/04/2024

I’m new to getting massages, but I’m very pleased with Nikki. Not only does she offer a great massage, but she adds helpful, healthful tips. I’ve booked her twice and would definitely book she in the future.
