Truly a great massage. Robert is able to work out all my knots without leaving sore muscles afterwards. Which in itself it's a tall order for a deep tissue massage. And the infrared sauna is so relaxing.
Highly recommend!

I came to Avant Garde Total Wellness Centers for a manual lymphatic drainage massage. Bob was a wealth of knowledge on my condition and made me feel confident in the procedure. I will update this review once I can speak more of the effects but I am sure I will know soon. The massage was relaxing and every detail was attended to. There is plenty of parking and the entrance is a side door (which leads down stairs to the office) just off the parking lot. Definitely worth a try if you need the benefits of a MLD massage....more

I recently had a lymphatic drainage massage, and the experience was absolutely wonderful. From the moment the session began, I felt completely relaxed. The technique was incredibly gentle yet surprisingly effective. Definitely a must for post surgical healing.

The therapist’s knowledge and calming presence made the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for something soothing that genuinely helps your body reset, I can’t recommend a lymphatic massage enough. It’s a perfect blend of relaxation and wellness.

I’ll definitely be coming back

I cannot recommend this manual lymphatic drainage massage enough! I came in post-op, feeling swollen and uncomfortable, and left feeling lighter, more mobile, and incredibly cared for. Bob was knowledgeable, gentle, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire session. He explained the process clearly and tailored the treatment to suit my recovery needs. After just one session, I noticed a visible reduction in swelling and felt real relief. If you’re recovering from surgery, this is an absolute must. Truly a healing and restorative experience!...more

Bob is absolutely amazing. I had a lot of swelling from a month after a big surgery that seemed to be getting worse with time. The pain was chronic and after one visit with Bob, I felt so much relief and there was no pain. I felt normal for the first time in a month. I’m going to continue going to him to get the best results as possible. I love how
he has a wealth of knowledge and gives you all the tools to understanding the lymphatic system, what he is doing, why my body retained fluid, etc. He takes his time, answering all of my questions, which relieved my anxiety. He was truly the answer to my prayers because my recovery was not easy and every day I was in pain.If I didn’t see him, I would not have the ability to heal properly and there could have been other problems like scar tissue. I could literally feel the pain and pressure disappear as he performed the manual massage. I would not ho anywhere else and I hope you go to him to receive the proper care!!!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Bob for a lymphatic massage, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Bob is incredibly knowledgeable about their craft, demonstrating a deep understanding of the body's lymphatic system and the techniques required to stimulate and detoxify it effectively. Their honesty and sincerity were evident throughout the session, making me feel completely at ease and confident in their expertise.

The office is immaculately clean and aesthetically pleasing, creating a serene and welcoming environment. The attention to detail in the decor, combined with the soothing ambiance, made it a perfect sanctuary for relaxation and healing.

Scheduling an appointment was a breeze and the pricing is also very reasonable, offering great value for the high-quality service provided.

In addition to the fantastic massage therapy, Bob offers a range of other services, including a rejuvenating sauna. The before and after effects of the lymphatic massage were remarkable – I felt lighter, less bloated, and more energized. The photo attached was my first visit- before and right after the session. My scar healing is also AMAZING!!

Overall, I highly recommend Bob for anyone seeking a professional, knowledgeable, and sincere massage therapist. Their dedication to their clients' well-being and the comprehensive range of services available make it a top-notch choice for holistic health and relaxation. All is all- if you’re like me and are searching for a facility to get lymphatic massages- look no more!!

I have been a client now over 1 month . I was very nervous after surgery to have massage , however after one phone call with Bob , I felt more educated and confident about going. Bob is very gentle and skilled at what he does . After my first appointment I felt improvement and that has continued in ever visit since . My surgeon saw me at my three week follow up and told me my healing was that of someone who had surgery 3 months ago and he believes a great deal of it was reflective of Bob’s massage and help. Bob takes his time to educate you on what your body needs and what he is doing . His sense of humor places you at ease. He is always punctual and the place is very relaxing . You can tell Bob takes a lot of pride in what he does . I AM beyond happy with my results and my healing . I would highly recommend Bob and his staff for services ....more

This place is an absolute MUST!! Bob is a wonderful caring awesome therapist! He is extremely knowledgeable about the lymph system which is what I was told by my breast specialist I needed. I thought do they even massage the breast area? Well they absolutely do! I instantly felt relief in my extremely tender cystic breasts! It was absolutely awesome and not awkward but medically necessary! Do not hesitate! See Bob if you have any lymph issues TODAY!...more
