    I've seen Tank several times and will say that considering them simply an "acupuncturist" is a total undersell. They are a healer that's very passionate about the various modalities of Chinese medicine including acupuncture. In fact, our first session was mostly a qigong session. I had to experience it to believe that I could actually feel them moving qi against me without actually physically touching me, and afterwards I was able to confirm that what I sensed (eyes closed) was what they were doing. It was totally wild. Besides their skills and knowledge, Tank is just such a good listener. I love the first part of our sessions because they really ask good questions and are completely present for the conversation. I can tell they really want to know the whole context to help a person. One thing that Tank is especially good at is being sensitive to sensitive people. I get cold easily and am sensitive to noise, and every time they get the ultra-crinkly mylar blanket to warm me up (it's very light so it doesn't disturb the needles, but also super noisy), they put it on me with exquisite care to ensure the noise isn't detracting from the experience. That is just how they do things - with exquisite care. Highly recommend going to see Tank for holistic care through the lens of Chinese medicine!

    I have been getting massages monthly for over 15 years. I just had the opportunity to have an experience at AGracefulU. Her massage was spectacular, her massage hit on all cylinders, and was so extremely different from any other massage,s I’ve had in the past and her attention to detail was amazing and focused. I did 30 minutes and not a second of that time was wasted. Thank You

    UPDATE: Gracie and I are going on year 3.I have traveled nurse outside of CA and yet still flew or drove back >13 hrs to ensure I made my self care appointments. From customer service, knowledge of her craft, and the small things to anticipate our every whim "A Graceful U" is creme de la creme, the flawless diamond in the bunch!PREVIOUS REVIEW:If spas had Michelin stars I would award this place one. While I am objective and fair, my body is a diva... princess and the pea types! I have a slim frame and often masseuses don't tend to the muscle tension and it becomes an expensive moisturizing session.Gracie is exceptional; finding the balance of what your muscles need...read full review
