This was amazing. He made me feel very comfortable. I’m usually not comfortable with male providers, but I saw a lot of great reviews and I’m so glad that I listened because he is super professional. And I waited a few days also to write a review because I know that the effects of Massage) can take like 72 hours and even though I left feeling great let me tell you That I can say he helped me so much with my neck pain and released so much tension in my back I haven’t felt as comfortable as this in quite a while. I quit doing adjustments at the chiropractor because I kept starting to get headaches after adjustments and so I just listen to my body and I’ve switched to massages and this was hands-down one of the best massages of my life. I could tell that he found knots and worked specifically on problem areas and obviously has lots of experience because I didn’t have to really direct him at all to like wear a pressure point or like where I felt a lot of attention. He just found it and worked out detention and I left feeling so relaxed anda few days later even better it’s just amazing. Definitely highly recommend. I will be a return patient customer using talk to text so sorry for any weirdness in the super long review lol

My 81 year old husband had an extremely stiff neck for 2 weeks. Tried our chiropractor, Advil, massage tool, etc. Nothing worked. Until we found Chris! He did an amazing job getting the knots out of his neck!

I’ve had several massages but Chris exceeded my expectations. I have hurt for months with tension build up over time and I am amazed that I walked out of the room feeling like a different person. I will be scheduling monthly sessions with Chris. If anyone is looking for someone to help with any pain, tension, or discomfort he is definitely the one to go too !!!! Thank you again!!

I visited GTO health and wellness for a swedish massage, and it was fantastic! The facility was clean, calming, and beautifully set up with soft lighting and soothing music. My therapist was very professional, checking in regularly about the pressure and focusing on the areas I requested. I left feeling completely relaxed and free from the tension I’d been carrying in my shoulders. I highly recommend this spa and plan to return for another session!

My massage experience with Chris at Loft was absolutely incredible! My initial session was to relieve a muscle strain that had me in tears and limited my daily movements. It was a complete success...such a relief! Two days later I was able to book a second session with hopes of a head to toe reset. Chris did not disappoint. Best massage ever! If you are looking to feel great, put yourself in Chris's hands!

The atmosphere was calming and relaxing. Chris did an amazing job! We spoke about problem areas I was experiencing. Not only did he get those exact spots but he applied a pressure in surrounding areas that released a lot of tension. I would definitely recommend and look forward to booking another session in the future.

I just moved here from Central Michigan 2 months ago and was nervous because I don’t really know anybody in the area. Im very thankful for Google that brought me to GTO ,Chris is amazing!!! My neck was so sore and caused arm nerve pain . It isn’t completely gone probably because it’s been going on for a few months. But it is 95% better I don’t think I realize how bad it was until it’s getting better. I can thank you enough Chris ! Highly recommend 👍👍

Let's see, where do I begin overall my experience was remarkable. Chris created an atmosphere that was relaxing. He demonstrated effective techniques involving deep tissue massage in all the appropiate stress areas. I'm a warehouse worker, so he was able to pinpoint my tensed areas and really focus on those, He was very professional and was able to coversate with me on ways to improve my overall well-being afterwards. I was on a weekend getaway to relax and left with a great experience; I will be returning. Until then I'm telling everybody I know in Southwest GA about GTO health & Wellness@ the loft😊thanks

Chris is a professional and very knowledgeable in his work. Came here stressed and burnt out, left feeling relaxed and more in control of my body. Chris explained everything from the start, asked what areas I was concerned about and talked me through the process and what I could do at home to help.

A friend recently referred our family to Chris. I went for my first massage last week, it was great! My family has been to many massage therapists; some really know the body and some do not. Chris knows the body well. I decided not to disclose much and just see if he found the problem areas. He did! Chris is very in tune with the body, he uses great techniques, and he is very calm and pleasant. Blessings to Chris and his business!

Chris has been a Godsend! I had some swelling and slow lymphatic drainage after some surgery. Chris has been amazing at helping me through my recovery. He is professional, knowledgable, kind, and just emits a healing aura! I could not recommend him more!

I am a patient with multiple sclerosis and normal massages will leave me sore for 2 to 3 days. I moved from Ohio four years ago, and I have been all over Georgia and Jax, looking for a massage therapist to replace mine in Ohio. At GTO he heard what I said and used such great techniques to get at the base of my muscle cramps. The environment was relaxing and super clean. Chris was very professional and talked about some long-term goals that he was setting for me. I don’t know how he has an open slot because he’s absolutely the best massage therapist around. My mind, body, and sore muscles can’t wait until next visit!

Frequently asked questions

How can stretching improve my flexibility and mobility?

Stretching exercises help elongate and relax muscles, tendons, and connective tissues, thereby improving flexibility, range of motion, and joint mobility. Regular stretching can also reduce the risk of injury, alleviate muscle soreness, and enhance athletic performance, making it an essential component of any fitness or rehabilitation program.

What are the benefits of combining massage therapy with meditation?

Combining massage therapy with meditation can amplify the relaxation response, promote deeper states of relaxation, and enhance overall well-being. Massage therapy helps release physical tension and stress stored in the body, while meditation cultivates mental clarity, emotional balance, and inner peace. Together, these practices synergistically support holistic healing and stress relief.

How does physio-neurological healing address chronic pain and movement limitations?

Physio-neurological healing takes a comprehensive approach to addressing chronic pain and movement limitations by identifying and addressing underlying neurological dysfunctions, muscular imbalances, and compensatory patterns. Through targeted exercises, manual techniques, and neurorehabilitation strategies, physio-neurological healing aims to retrain the nervous system, restore optimal movement patterns, and alleviate pain and dysfunction.

What steps can I take to enhance my personal wellness journey?

Enhancing personal wellness involves adopting a holistic approach to self-care that encompasses physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of well-being. This may include regular exercise, mindful eating, stress management techniques, fostering social connections, engaging in hobbies and creative pursuits, seeking support from trusted professionals, and prioritizing activities that nourish and uplift your mind, body, and spirit.
