  • “I need this experience on a monthly basis! At least! With the hustle and bustle of Life, Work, Kids, all of that, this experience was exactly what I needed. During my treatment, I felt a calm that I haven't felt in a long time, and in that moment, I understood that I need this experience regularly as part of my self-care regimen. This is a must! The occupational therapist who provided my treatment, Emily, is very knowledgeable and experienced with her skill set. And I'm so grateful for her services. I seriously felt like I was walking on air when I left. Thank you!”

  • “My first impression of Innergreat was wonderful. Emily greeted me with a wonderful friendly smile. The space was extremely clean and warm. I loved the energy in the room. My first lymphatic massage was fantastic. Emily has an amazingly light and healing touch. I had an upper body session. It lasted about 45 minutes. Emily explained what she was going to do before she began the session. I loved the deep breathing exercise she had me do before she began. Afterwards, I definitely felt less bloated and lighter. I noticed a difference in my face when I looked in the mirror. I actually felt more energetic. I would highly recommend Emily. She also had information for me to take home to read about the advantages and benefits of manual lymphatic drainage. I definitely plan on coming back.”
