Creating Wellness

I’ve had quite a few massages in Milwaukee and Brookfield, and my experience with Michael has been by far the best. He is very knowledgable about body muscles and nerves, and takes the time to explain what he’s doing. He constantly hit the right spots, as he was treating my bruised shoulder and my tense pec muscles, and I felt so much better after his work was done. His mannerism is also very respectful and professional. Absolutely recommended.

I found this place via Groupon. The downside to Groupon is that it can take a couple of months to get the appointment scheduled, but it can be worth it.
I spoke to Michael about the treatments I’d been receiving on my shoulder, and when I mentioned Elements Massage, he asked if the therapist was Thom. Apparently Thom taught him, so Michael explained the technique that Thom used was Chinese Tui Na and ued the same technique, since it was so effective for me.
In the hour, Michael found at least 4 huge knots in my pectorals and shoulder area and got td of them.
He will be on my short list for future massage therapists. His rate is usually $ 80 per hour, but he is currently running a summer and fall special with $ 45 hour sessions.
He typically only works 9:00 to 5:00 Monday through Friday, but is willing to schedule an evening appointment if needed.
I definitely recommend him, especially for sports injury massage treatments.

This is an update to my review of August. I have seem Michael on numerous occasions since August and remain a fan of his skills. Michael recently moved to a new location. Although the location is further from my home I find the trip well worth the effort. Michael is excellent at what he does and I will continue to see him at his new location. Michael has continued to help me address areas I stress while working with a trainer. I cannot imagine taking on my gym training without having Michael to help me recover!

Michael is a great therapist. He was very thorough, listened closely to my individual needs, and customized his massages to address my issues. He is incredibly knowledgeable in how muscle systems work and had great advice on exercises and stretches I could do at home to help relieve tension on my own. I would highly recommend Michael for anyone wanting a personalized massage experience!

Michael is great – very thorough with his initial assessment and knowledgeable when asked questions. As a RN, I am often skeptical of complementary/​alternative therapists. While I do not subscribe to some of the techniques that he is trained in, I really enjoyed his massage technique. I feel very confident that he is well versed in the techniques he employs and he is very professional in his manner.
Massages are always pricey (and they should be, since you have a practitioner working with you individually for an hour), but Michael’s prices are competitive. Approximately $ 50 – 70 for a one-​hour massage.

Amazing! I loved my Swedish massage by Michael V. He was thorough in his before massage evaluation and after.
As for the massage, it was the best I have had. I have had massages on beaches in other countries, at other massage places in milwaukee and at high end Aveda salons. None comes close to this one. Amazing, amazing. I would highly recommend this place. I think I have found my massage place!
