I’ve gone to Synapse a few times now, while heavily pregnant and postpartum and I will never go anywhere else. I’ve always had Anna Cousin as my massage therapist and she is absolutely incredible. The first time I saw her, I sobbed uncontrollably on her table; she released so many things I’d been holding in my body and I felt SO SAFE and heard and taken care of. Truly truly incredible experience. I cannot recommend her enough.

I’ve had too many amazing massages here to count! The space is warm, inviting and very relaxing, and all of the massage therapists I’ve tried have been outstanding. I have a number of chronic pain issues and I always leave feeling much better in my body than when I arrived. I highly recommend Synapse - your body will thank you for having bodywork there!

Just wow! Zoe was truly amazing, her presence, energy, philosophy and practice is 100% focused on supporting you as a patient. She is amazing.

I really thought this place would be amazing after I read the reviews but the massage I received was not on the level of the price I paid. Maybe I got an inexperienced massage therapist but I don’t think I will be returning.

Loved it! I tried the lomi lomi massage for the first time and loved it. Ximena gave a great massage and was warm and welcoming. I’d definitely book with her again.
