Testimonial from Linda Gerson's client Lola, Los Gatos
"I am so happy that I was lucky enough to find Linda Gerson! I moved
to San Jose about a year ago and have been desperate to find a good
masseuse to help me address my usual tight shoulders (where I hold a
lot of tension), as well as to help me release stress and just relax.
Over the past 15 years I have been accustomed to getting regular
massages, usually once a month. I think that there are two types of
massage in general: one is what I call "candy massage" and feels
really delicious while it's happening, but there are no real benefits
felt following the massage; the second is what I call "medicinal
massage" and it feels good while it's happening, but you *know* that
important adjustments are being made that will benefit your physical
health in the days to come. I prefer the "medicinal massage" -- but
people who are good at this are very very difficult to find.
Verrrrrrrrrrrry difficult.
So imagine my happiness when I found such a person in Los Gatos, just
minutes from my home. Turns out that Linda is not just a good
masseuse -- she is a GREAT masseuse!!! I cannot recommend her enough.
I would also like to add that when I met Linda, I was even more
anxious to find a good masseuse because I had injured my lower back.
Her strategies for addressing this problem made a significant
difference in my recovery. I definitely attribute moving past this
problem area to her great skill. In short I recommend Linda Gerson."
