Robert Ellestad, LMT #14560 Massage Therapy Salem, Oregon 97302

Therese A says: As always, Robert made my shoulders, back and neck feel like they are supposed to. It was wonderful and I look forward to the next one. Thank you!!

David M says: This was my first massage and Robert was very polite and caring. I would recommend him to anyone who is under stress, has minor aches and pains, or just wants to relax. Thank you, Robert.

Barb B says: Loved and appreciated the Thai massage again Robert. Thanks! Just wonderful!

Lisa L says: An incredible experience!! This was my first massage and I am completely hooked. I have not slept so well in a very long time. Thank-you, Robert

David H says: Robert is my favorite masseuse. Shiatsu was new to me, but I have found it to be my favorite. The combination of pressure, stretch, relax and breathe is excellent. Robert's space is calming and has an emotional warmth and energy that allows healing at multiple levels. His intuitive approach always seems to find my trouble spots and allow those muscles to let go. This is a twice a month regular necessity as far as I'm concerned. Thanks, Robert!

Karin L says: What a fantastic experience to have a shiatsu massage after doing Robert's exercise class! The class got my body's ch'i moving, so that the massage provided even more healing energy work. Thank you, Robert, for sharing your wonderful healing gift with the rest of us!

kenneth K says: Robert is very professional! Quiet, soothing environment. I felt very relaxed, and my stiff joints were more flexible. I'll return Ken Kentch

David s says: I just moved here from Arizona and I get a massage every month. Robert did a good job and applied sufficient pressure as needed. The music was very relaxing and I almost fell asleep at times. I made an appointment for another hour and a half for November.

Portia P says: I had my first October massage last week. I normally get the Shiatsu massage. Not long after the session began, Robert suggested combining the Shiatsu along with the Thai massage. Once it began, I immediately chose the hour and a half. Next time it will be the two hour session. What a difference that makes!! What an absolutely wonderful experience, combining the pressure points along with the stretch. Thank you Robert for having the knowledge and skill to know that both techniques would work well together for me. You really worked on my long term injuries and made me feel so much better. See you soon.

Patrick B says: Robert did a wonderful job. It was very relaxing and I felt very comfortable. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Portia P says: I had, unfortunately, not seen Robert over the summer. When I saw him yesterday, his statement was how badly my shoulders were knotted up. I felt like my shoulders were pulled up around my ears. My pelvis was also rotated and lifted up on the right side. Within that hour, Robert had relaxed my shoulders, re-aligned my pelvis, and took the pain away from my ham string and the headache, which I very seldom have, was gone. I won’t ever let a month go without seeing Robert. Thank You Again Robert!!!! You truly are a Healer.

Holly C says: Wonderful, thank you:)

Vanda B says: My neighbor gave me a certificate for massage from Robert, and I chose the Shiatsu yesterday. Today I felt energized, alert and content--the opposite from the one and only deep tissue massage I had several years ago. It left me groggy, and I slept the whole next day. I believe that this was one of the kindest things I have ever done for myself and I am grateful to have such a skilled practitioner in the Salem area. I think it may become a goal to repeat the experience monthly! Gracias-Aregato-Thanks!

Paige M says: This massage felt good and was theraputic. My shoulder area felt considerable less tight when he was done. Thank you Robert.

Gabino P says: I highly recommend for others. Robert does a great job.

Kelly L says: I have only had deep tissue massage, my wife recomended going to Robert and having a shiatsu massage best thing ever. Comfortable relaxing enviroment and a excellant job by Robert highly suggest for others

Margaret V says: After Robert's Shiatsu massage, everything is lined up and full of life. I can walk easily and I can really enjoy life and I gain new insights; it is very healing.

Lee R says: My first visit with Robert was great. I was fatigued and in pain, and the shiatsu really helped relieve both. It is a comfortable environment and Robert is a pro!

Christin H says: I have only had Deep Tissue Massage but Robert's Shiatsu was recommended by a friend. It was awesome! I left feeling more relaxed and rested than I have been in a long time! It was absolutely wonderful!

Crystal A says: Robert gave me my first experience with Shiatsu, and now I'm hooked. His energy is wonderful, his spirit and demeanor are fabulous. Any time I need to get my energy flowing a bit stronger, I'll be on his doorstep (or table, as the case may be!)...

Barb B says: Always such a gift to get a massage from Robert! Wish I could do it weekly!!

Kimberly M says: My first Shiatsu massage was a home run. I only wish I would have booked 90 minutes instead of 60. Great experience, will be back again!

Portia P says: WOW!! Robert? You are just too efficient :-) I just arrived at work, and was going to e-mail you. You beat me to it. When I returned to work, I felt a bit light headed. I was not surprised by that feeling. I thought I'd better make it home while I still could. By the time I got home, I had reached euphoria. I called my husband to tell him I would NOT be taking the garbage can down to the road nor would I be cooking dinner. I absolutely canceled out for about an hour. I got up long enough to feed my dogs and all the birds, then back to bed. I wanted to get up to shower but had no desire to move. I slept all evening plus all night long. That is unheard of for me. I want to thank Robert for giving me THE best massage I've ever had. He was able to work on all the points on my body that have been injured and started the process of bringing my body back into balance. He started with my shoulder then moved on from there. When Robert was able to open my hips/pelvis what a feeling that was. My knees, legs and feet have also been twisted. My first massage was FANTASTIC!!! Robert is a fantastic healer and treated me for more than I could have thought or imagined. I will be visiting Robert often and sharing this experience with others, hoping they can benefit from a wonderful experience with Robert.

Michael B says: Until the massage, I was running off of anxiety. After the massage I felt very calm and relaxed without any anxiety.

Cherisse L says: Robert was sensitive to me and my areas of pain and tension. I felt wonderful when done and still feel great!!!

jessica S says: Great experience, my muscles were very relieved and I felt completely rejuvenated!

Nelsa B says: Nice work! I will try this again.

Peter B says: Robert was considerate and responsive. His technique is clearly trained and competent.

Reginaldo M says: Had Shiatsu massage. Very relaxing. Terrific.

Jennifer H says: Robert is the best. Shiatsu massage that revitalized my Chi! I'll definately be back.

Elling H says: What a great feeling to get the "kinks" worked out in such a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. No question about, I'm coming back again...and again. Thanks Robert!

Karin L says: fantastic, energizing, cleansing, rejuvenating.

Andrea says: I have been sore and tight for months. It has been a week since my massage and I am still not sore and much more flexible.

David H says: Robert is fantastic. Shiatsu was new to me, and I loved it. Robert has a great energy about him. He made it easy to relax and get the most out of my massage. Thanks, Robert. I'll be back!

amber says: First time with Shiatsu style massage....definitely not the last! Robert is fantastic. Excellent skill, pressure and communication. I am already recommending him to everyone.

Jenn K says: Robert is amazing! He understands what your body needs. I've always gotten a deep tissue massage because of all the knots in my back, but after trying his massage, I'll never go back. I highly recommend getting both massages in one session. Can't wait for my next session!

Brionna B says: Thank you Robert. I feel alot better after yesterday's session, my back and shoulders are happy happy!

Liz W says: Robert did a Shiatsu Massage on me for the very first time. I was so very impressed with the strength of his pressure, and the way I keep feeling day after day. Suffering from knee issues and my pain is nearly gone. I don't understand but will look into and return this next week for a Thai Massage. Robert took the time t explain to me how this modality would improve, I am a very good student, a grateful for this knowledgable man. Would rate a 10!

Heather L says: I have never had a massage of this nature. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. I will sure be back!

Richard S says: After two months out of the area, I returned to Robert for a two hour session in which he combined Shiatsu and Thai. He worked my back primarily and then moved on to other areas with Thai work. Robert works an area with enough pressure and focus to get immediate results. The additional stretching of legs, arms, and back through his Thai techniques brought a full sense of loosening and relaxation. I enjoy Robert's continual improvement of intense but painless techniques. His highly developed skills amaze me.

Cindy M says: I've had a dull ache in my shoulders and neck for years... and have been in constant pain for several weeks. My neck and shoulder area have been so tight that at times I cannot turn my head. This was my first massage ever... suggested by a friend. Robert truly helped me. This morning is the first time that I woke up not in pain. I am going to schedule my next shiatsu massage for next month. Thank you Robert!

Kenneth B says: As a bodybuilder I really like the functionality. It helps with flexibility and relaxes you at the same time. Highly recommended

hillary a says: As someone who appreciates the deep tissue massage I definitely recommend the Thai. The Thai was more relaxing and pretty much worked out all my aches, pains and knots, but without the pain of deep tissue, not too mention I'm not sore or tender to the touch like I would be with deep tissue. So, if your a deep tissue fan like me you should absolutely give Thai a try. Thanks Robert!

Courtney G says: I had never experienced a Thai massage before and this one definitely won't be my last! Robert is great!

Hugh B says: Good job getting deep into the hot spots, especially in my shoulders. Just what the doctor ordered! I just need to repeat this treatment more frequently.

Karen F says: The muscles in my neck, shoulder and arm were so tight from the fall that my chiropractor encouraged me to come back to you. My only regret is that I waited so long! Your total focus and concern for my needs was so appreciated! You did the best deep tissue massage ever yesterday and this is the first morning I woke up without dull pain in my neck and shoulder.

Letitia S says: My body thanks him. Hopefully I will plan some more visits with him in the near future. It truly helps with the stiffness and gives you a sense of relaxation that contributes to overall well being.

Ryan W says: I've had two shiatsu massages with Robert and would recommend it to anyone struggling with stiffness or pain or just wanting a great relaxing expereince. What a way to treat yourself! Robert makes the massage experience very comfortable and is talented in his work.

Jim H says: I feel so much more relaxed and comfortable. I haven't had a massage from Robert for a couple of months and I much more at peace and my blood pressure has gone down abit.

tom h says: After a long stretch of stress and tension this fall, it was like starting all over. I've felt on a slower easier pace ever since. Excellent.

Carolyn K says: My shoulders and back have been really bothering me due to extensive computer use. Robert focused on that area and I am feeling much better. He really does seem to know what the body needs. It's a great retreat from a busy world.

Karin L says: Thanks, Robert, for a great massage. I am feeling great! And I'll be sure to come back again. You are so gentle yet firm, totally in tune with what one's body is needing. Keep up the great work.

Ellen L says: I'll be back.

Marni C says: Robert has a very pleasant and soothing manner. He is amazingly in tune to what the body needs. I feel so much better making massage part of my regular health care. I would highly recommend Robert to anyone looking for superior massage therapy. He is amazing!

Linda I-Y says: Robert is always professional and gives his full attention to the areas that are in need of bodywork. He is very intuitive and accomplished in his specialty, Shiatsu, and I always enjoy my 90 min. with him.

Robert M says: I have several different types of massages and Robert has given me the best! Very professional and I feel so much better, I don't even need to go to the chiropractor!

Normand R says: Very polite, professional and does a great job of relaxing a tired body. Recommend highly. Norm

Deborah K says: VERY VERY VERY good As usual. I'm going to work out today as my back feels much better. Thank you!

Rex W says: I had a very enjoyable massage. I feel very loose and my shoulders and low back feel great. I will recommend Robert to friends and family. This was a Christmas present from my wife. I gave her a big hug and kiss because it was exactly what I needed.
