User Reviews for Natalie Durkin, LMT

Natalie knows how to work out tense, muscular knots. She doesn't give feathery spa treatments--she gives real DEEP tissue massage, and she knows the muscular system like the backs of her strong hands. Her work is personal and professional. Highly recommended.
Pros: Natalie is a highly-skilled, personable professional.
Cons: You won't see any other massage therapist again.

My best friend always says, the best way to tell if you are in a good Indian food restaurant is to look around at the other customers. If there are many people of Indian descent, then you know you are in an authentic restaurant with high quality food, if not, then you are wise to turn around and leave. I believe the same theory holds true for massage therapists. All massage therapists need to take care of themselves by seeing another therapist from time to time. If your therapist ranks among those who the therapists use, then you can rest assured you are in good hands. Natalie Durkin is one of those therapists. I have been a massage therapist since 1998 and have received bodywork from many different therapists along my journey. I can still remember (and with a smile on my face) the very first massage I received from Natalie: it was like coming home. She was the therapist I had been searching for without even knowing it. I receive bodywork on average once a week, from a plethora of providers, and can easily say that Natalie tops out the group and ranks among the best of the best. Her knowing touch and friendly bedside manner are greatly appreciated by my tired body. Natalie has never disappointed me, and I always look forward to my sessions with her. Oh, and one more thing to show my loyalty, I refer my own clients to Natalie when I am booked or out of town or otherwise cannot accommodate. I trust her completely and recommend her whole-heartedly.

Who do you call? Natalie Durkins. After being thru much acupuncture for shoulder, back and groin pains, just a few short treatments from Natalie and the problems were fixed, rather than soothed for the moment. I feel realigned, flexible and pain free. Call Natalie as she is an expert.

If you're looking for a massage professional who provides excellent therapy, Natalie is definitely the person to call. I've worked with Natalie on overall muscular work and particular hand-wrist work after an injury. Natalie is extremely knowlegeable in the different needs and structures of the muscular system, and has the massage technique and hands to make a difference to your daily living, exercise, or training program. Her office is very relaxing and comfortable, and her personality makes her an asset to any regular theraputic ritual. I do recommend her to everyone interested in adding to a healthy life.

Having tested out many massage therapists over the past couple of years, I can say that Natalie is one of the few that I have returned to for visit after visit. There are not that many MTs who understand not only the "therapeutic" stress-relief aspect but also the physical sources and thus treatment of aches and pains; muscle pulls and just plain physical dysfunction. Stepping into her new oasis in the center of downtown is like taking a mini-vacation. When I return to work from a mid-day visit, I have only a minor memory of the pretzel person I was 30 minutes prior!
