Dorinda (owner/licensed massage therapist) I have been in the therapeutic field for almost 20 years. Prior to becoming a massage therapist I was a therapist for autistic children and have always been drawn to the healing arts. I deeply understand the impact our muscles and emotional state can have on the body. Usually, I work with a strong, deep pressure to help the body release tension and reduce inflammation.
Angela (licensed massage therapist) has been in the therapeutic massage business for over 30 years. Angela's experience includes being the massage therapist for Cirque Du Soleil, thorough understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine,especially, in regards to acupressure points in the body, how the meridians flow, and the use of Tua Na during her massage sessions. She is also a seasoned Thai Massage therapist who uses some of those skills on the table during your massage.
Steve Cooper (licensed massage therapist) has over a decade experience as an LMT. Cooper built his experience at 5 star spas, such as, Eviama, Fabriq, and Body Restoration. He has a gentle and effective approach to massage which incorporates S.M.R.T (Spontaneous Muscle Release Technique) This technique involves holding certain muscles in a positional hold until the muscle releases. It's quite effective in addressing muscle pain and tension. Cooper is also a certified Craniosacral therapist.

You’ll walk in like kiln-dried pottery and walk out like a lump of clay thanks to the deft hands of owner Dorinda O’Donnell, who spent a decade building experience in a variety of techniques at the now-closed (sniff, sniff) Terme Di Aroma spa. Whether you’re in for reflexology, a Thai yoga massage, or deep-pressure therapeutic work, she isn’t afraid to target any back lumps or tight hamstrings from multiple angles until they’re ahhhhh.1318 West Ritner Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Went for a prenatal massage and I couldn’t be happier! Not only is the place beautifully decorated with a great ambience. The beds are heated and they are so nice! Dorinda did a fantastic job, was sure to check in on the pressure I liked and the scent I preferred before starting. Overall, I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. Oh and we got a little goodie bag at the end with chocolate and sanitizer! It doesn’t look like a fancy spa out front, but be sure to not let that deter you from stopping in.
