I just moved to Salem, and have been trying to find a place to get a good massage on the northshore. I tried a couple of places in Salem, and I just wasn't happy with my massages- the therapists weren't really thoughtful, and didnt heed my request to focus on my sore back and shoulders. Last weekend, I tried sankofa on a whim-- I walked by its great local on Washington st and made an appointment the next day. From the moment I met Tye, I knew that this massage would be different than the others. She took the time to interview me about what I wanted to get out of my session, and asked for areas of focus. She was super knowledgeable, and actually LISTENED to what I had to say! After my massage, I felt like a new person. My sore muscles felt much looser. I can't wait to go back!!
