I have been a massage client of Carol River for several years.  I am in a high stress profession and have a chronic health condition which flares periodically, and each month when I visit her she is attentive to my massage needs, adjusting her approach in response to my current health. She was also invaluable as I recovered from unexpected major surgery earlier this year.  I know that without her caring, healing touch, I would not have been able to maintain my current functional status.  She is a talented massage therapist and a wonderful healer.  I recommend her highly.
