I wanted to echo the previous poster's commentary. I have been attempting to make an appointment for a number of weeks, but whenever I call an answering machine immediately picks up. Despite numerous messages, I have never received a call back. Also, I have emailed Laurie Towers and the "webmaster" (listed on their website) only to receive an automatic form response, stating that the company looks forward to speaking with me soon. Ch'yeah right. As the previous poster said - "What a let down"

After reading great reviews, I was so excited to try this place. I called at least 5 times, and always got a recording. I left messages each time I called, but they were never returned. I finally gave up annoyed. What a let down.

After seeing Laurie Towers interviewed on TV recently, I became a client; now there's no looking back. As a professional musician I experience so many muscle aches, strains, it's hard to keep working. This woman understands the physical demands performers live with--it's amazing. Massage is no luxury for some of us--with Laurie it's a necessity. Moreso, her work is all therapy, no fluff.

Laurie Towers is the best massage therapist I have been to, hands down. She is extremely knowledgeable about the human anatomy, stronger than any therapist I've been to, and I always feel better after seeing her. A deep tissue massage with Laurie is not a walk in the park, but you always feel better after she is done with you. I couldn't more highly reccommend her.
