Sankofa Massage & Bodywork

I've known Tye for many years even as she was in massage school. I've received massages from Tye while she was a massage student and also a licensed professional and all of my sessions have always been great. Before starting a massage, she consults with you to better understand what your ailments are and will make suggestions as she seems fit. She wants to ensure that she gives all of her clients a full customized experience. Tye is a master at her profession and her knowledge base includes a variety of massage techniques that ranges from the traditional to the non-traditional. Tye is a consummate professional. Her demeanor is both warm and calming. She will put you at ease the moment you meet her. I highly recommend a massage from Sankofa Massage. You'll be sure to return! Pros: Great massages and customer service, willing to work with your schedule Cons: None more

I have only good things to say about Sankofa Massage. Tye is wonderful and she specializes her massages to your specific needs. I love the reflexology on my feet and I don't like my feet to be touched! It is a nice quiet environment so it is very easy to relax and just drift off into complete relaxation. She gives a discount on multiple massages which you don't see at other massage studios. I would highly recommend Tye for your ultimate massage experience. more

It's not often that I walk away from anything raving to everyone I know. From the moment I sat down with Tye I felt relaxed. Her calming demeanor and warm personality were a prelude to the massage that followed. I appreciated her checking in regarding the pressure, since my left side is normally filled with tension, and her follow-up after the massage was nice. I felt like a million bucks when I left. I can't say enough about the woman and the massage. Thank you! Pros: Evening Appointments Cons: None more

I have tried many therapists over the years. Because of Tye's therapy I don't have to bother my son, Dr. Scott (Chiropractor) with "Please fix my neck; please fix my back...? all the time. Type's therapy has enabled me to keep my body well-maintained and pain free. I enjoy the deep tissue work and I am planning on trying some of Tye's other techniques. more

HI, So I love massage, I get them when ever I can afford them and even when I can,t. I am 40 years old and workout regularly: take spin 3 times a week, lift 3 times a week, attend yoga classes and white water raft. Needless to say my body hurts at the end of the day and massages are just the thing to help my body recover from the stress I put it through. Tye at Sankofa Massage and Bodywork is just the woman for the job. She has an intuitive sense where those real tender muscles are and knows how to soothe them and guide them into deep relaxation. She also knows when to back off when those muscles are particularly tight and sensitive. I appreciate that Tye is communicative and checks in with me regarding the pressure she is applying, which can range from very deep to gentle. I can't say enough good things about Tye's skills as a massage therapist and she has gotten better with each massage I have received. The only reason I did not give her a 5 star rating was because her space is located within another office, so the massage space is louder then I would like. I will say that once the massage starts I rarely notice the noise because I am so relaxed. So book that massage with Tye at Sankofa Massage and Bodywork, your body will be thankful. Pros: Tye's hands Cons: Massage space more
