I was recommended by my close friend and I'm so glad I met this lady. She is so understanding and patient when you explain your situation. She listens to every detail and communicates with you what she was concerned with or how the body reacted during the treatment.

It's a bit sad and ridiculous to say this, but I have never met anyone who is this professional in my life. From doctors to physical therapists, I happen to receive 'on the books guideline' type of service that hasn't got to the bottom of the actual cause and haven't recovered for about 2 years now.

Although, I'm not a musician, my career requires a lot of manual labor and also have lots of athletic hobbies. Basically my doctors have said I should stop the activities and rest. However, been inactive for several months and it's so hard to stay positive.

After a few visits with her, and I feel that my body is reacting better and understanding my own body's needs now. She reassures me that I don't need to feel upset and helps me. Not only to recover from my injuries and relieve my pain, but also to help me reach my goal to get back being active again!

I don't know how to commend her just by typing this. She's just incredible with her hands and words. Highly recommend her not only on her skills, but also her welcoming...

Chisato is a miracle worker. She rescued my music career by healing my hands. And she is a kind, patient, and genuinely caring person. She gets my highest recommendation for massage therapy and, especially, hand therapy for musicians. I play and teach guitar and bass professionally. I was having such pain in my fretting hand that I could barely play a barre chord on the soft strings of an electric guitar, much less the stiffer strings of an acoustic. I went to a traditional specialist who took x-rays and simply said rest and hope for the best. That wasn't working -- I was still in pain. Then I found Chisato. I had weekly treatments for several months. She healed my hands to where I can now play, pain-free, all day long, and there have been no drugs and no surgery at any point. While Chisato is a licensed massage therapist, she is also an accomplished guitarist. Additionally, she has made a special study of the hand, augmented by her own understanding of playing a stringed instrument. This special skill set was apparent in that she clearly understood my hand better than a typical massage therapist, and, indeed, better than the MD I saw! Chisato is exacting in her work and nothing escapes her. She is top notch at what she does and is also a pleasure to be around. Highest...

I have been playing the piano since 1991, and I've recently been battling some muscle strains from overuse (and older muscles tightening up) I teach Piano and Voice, so I spend 3-6 hours at the piano daily. I was worried that I would have to give up my job due to physical restraints. That's when I was introduced to Chisato who works specifically on musicians through Music Hands Wellness LLC.

I did weekly one hour sessions with her for a few months and she helped me get my body back on track! She did a complete analysis of my muscles and I learned from her that I actually have hypermobility in various parts of my body. She taught me stretches to use daily, and I'm now constantly aware of my neutral position being the best for my marathon of teaching.

She was very accommodating with my teaching schedule, and would always check-in afterwards to see if the symptoms were subsiding.
