Testimonials
Melanie has been my massage therapist weekly for over a year. She has a deep understanding of the skills of massage therapy. Melanie is able to sense the body parts which need special attention and she focuses on my needs even as they change. She works with a quiet calm and makes the client feel that the body is fully attended.

It was absolutely the best massage experience that I have ever had. I actually told Melanie this within the first 10 minutes. I can't remember ever feeling this relaxed after a massage. I highly recommend her!!

My boyfriend and I had the couples massage experience. It was one of many massages for me, and a first massage for my boyfriend. The moment I walked in we began to feel more calm from the beautiful environment. One hour of pure relaxation. At one point during the head massage, I thought I was being lifted up. My boyfriend walked out totally pain free and can't wait to go back. It was by far the BEST massage I've ever had!

What a wonderful massage experience! The set up of the room is warm and inviting and immediately has a calming effect. Melanie makes you feel comfortable from the start and you are her main focus for the entire hour! She has the knowledge and skills to perform the perfect massage!! I'm really looking forward to my next visit!

I
have had a massage from Melanie and it was AMAZING! I have had a
handful of massages in my life from different places. For the first time
I walked out of a massage feeling relaxed, not only physically, but
mentally. As well, I didn't feel greasy like you do when you walk out of
other massages. Melanie takes her time, really works on the
areas that you mention and ask her to, as well as still giving your
full body the attention it so deserves. The room and atmosphere are
extremely relaxing. Also, you can't beat the price! Do you and your body
a favor, go see Melanie!

Melanie
consistently gives attentive massages that focus not only on your
problem areas, but also on your total well-being. She takes the time to
ask questions and makes you feel completely comfortable during your
massage. Treat yourself to an hour of pure relaxation!!

I recently moved here from Upstate, NY, and I am so happy that I found Melanie! I've had experiences before when a "deep tissue" massage just wasn't "deep" enough--not with Melanie. She knew where all my trouble spots were (which, in my case, was pretty much my entire back). I couldn't believe how much better I felt afterward! She is a consummate professional, who takes time to get to know you and what your needs are. I cannot wait until my next appointment--what are you waiting for?
Brian - Glen Allen, VA
I
went here for my first massage and it was a great experience! I was a
little anxious about being able to relax and really enjoy the massage
but this was definitely not a problem. The massage setting was so
relaxing with soft music and lighting. And before the massage, Melanie
took the time out to discuss why I was coming for a massage
and what areas I was experiencing the most tension and in my case, the
pain! I would definitely recommend Scents of Serenity Massage- I've been
back several times and the massages are always consistent. I love it!!

I've
had many massages over the years in different salons (corporate &
private) but this was without a doubt the best experience. Melanie is a
friend of mine which means she could have easily let down her
professional guard and I still would find something good to say;
however, she didn't so I have even more respect for her as my massage
therapist! Throughout the entire hour she was attentive to my needs as
the client and I never once had to comment on the temperature of the
bed, the pressure, or the areas that needed more attention as she began
the massage. Melanie is an intuitive therapist and the room is
absolutely tranquil – experience them together for an hour or so and you
will forget you’re in Richmond!

If all I could write was WOW I would. From the moment I arrived I felt more relaxed. Melanie made me feel comfortable to the point where there were times I didn't know if I was awake or asleep. It was perfect! I will be back.

The massage I received today was amazing - hit all the muscles just right. Thanks Melanie.
Daniel, Midlothian, VA
I have been a dental hygienist for over 10 years and my back, shoulders and neck have a large amount of knots from being hunched over and not sitting properly. The pain always seems to radiate from my back to my neck area, leaving me with throbbing headaches and excruciating pain and tightness all over my upper body. But thank God for Melanie, she is simply amazing! The relief in indescribable after she is done working these pesky "knots" right out of my body. Because of Melanie's special touch I feel like a new person after each massage and it is definitely worth the one hour drive to see her!
Angela - Fredericksburg, VA
A great massage! Melanie devotes the full hour to the massage and does an excellent job. I would highly recommend her!
David - Glen Allen, VA
I felt transported....the experience and the environment took me away, and when the massage was complete, stress was just a memory!!!
