Exhale Bodywork

Sam is incredibly talented and has 1000+ hours of training under her belt - it shows. I have visited her for both Thai yoga massage and table massage and leave feeling center and rejuvenated. It seems like she always knows exactly what I need and never neglects oft-forgotten areas. Her attention to detail is superb. Since Sam is highly sought after it can be hard to get an appointment, but it is well worth it. Trust me!

Sam is a committed, compassionate and intuitive practitioner. She has an extremely high level of integrity and understanding of the body/mind connection. It is my pleasure to have found a true guru of healing, who takes the time to listen and guide in suggestions for me to create my desired outcome. Going so far as to leave me in a more energized state, or relaxed state. Her healing hands have taken care of my daily ailments and headaches, from migraines (which had left me in a plight of existence with a digital business that requires me to push the limits on screens), to sprains, and even easing my contested pains. Her expertise as a practitioner has given me a renewed sense of well being and relief from discomfort. Just when I thought all was lost during COVID, Sam went above and beyond to further guide and save my body in a digital world with her expertise in creating the perfect ergonomic work space. I have referred her to many friends and family and she has always delivered. Her professionalism in my experience with her over this year of bi-weekly sessions, has always been above and beyond. As a high performance business coach who has high expectations in the delivery of excellence - Sam's consistent demonstration of brilliant energy and warm commitment to excellence are unparalleled. She delivers high performance results to her clients and brings her years of experience to the table, along with her wonderful spirit. She is a powerhouse of her craft and truly a retreat for the body, mind and soul - but you won't know till you experience it first hand.

I had my third massage with Sam yesterday and as long as she's in practice, I will continue driving the distance to her studio. I've never been someone who's felt comfortable with my physical body for reasons Google reviews and viewers do not need to know about. This is true for others touching me. Sam's presence is beautifully welcoming and without judgment. You immediately feel comfortable and safe with her. She is extremely skilled at her craft and it is evident that she cares about the way that you feel mentally and physically not only when you're on the table, but in between sessions, too. She wants to know how you as a whole are feeling and how she can help - an obvious difference between someone passionate about bodywork and someone there for a somewhat halfhearted massage. I look forward to trying out Thai yoga massage next before a big run this June. Thank you, Sam, for simply being you.

Samantha is by far the best massage therapists/body workers I’ve experienced. She is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced in what she offers and I couldn’t recommend her enough. I leave her beautiful space feeling revitalized and rejuvenated and at home in my body. Everyone deserve to feel this way and I couldn’t recommend Samantha enough. Thank you!

Sam is by far the best massage therapist I've ever worked with. She combines an intuitive feel with incredible knowledge of the body and skillful techniques to offer the most effective therapeutic benefits. Her touch is healing and her spirit is nurturing. Thank you, Sam!

Sam is very skilled, knowledgeable, professional and has great energy. I took a yoga class from her first- I was so impressed with her knowledge of anatomy that I decided to schedule a massage appointment too. My initial impression of her competence as a yoga teacher continues to increase, as she demonstrated her skill in massage therapy too. I drove an hour for my appointment, as we live outside of Cville. It was very well worth the drive. Her office space is serene and elegantly simple. Also very clean. Just walking into the space, the tension begins to melt away. I’ll definitely be a repeat client. Looking forward to trying Thai massage too.

I couldn’t recommend Samantha more whole heartedly. Professional and personable, her bodywork is truly an investment in whole body wellness. Her massages are the perfect combination of relaxation and relief (from pain, tension, etc.). If you’re looking for a more active experience, her Thai massages are incredible! Imagine the mental relaxation of a message paired with the physical rejuvenation of a yoga practice. Moreover, Samantha is a genuine, beautiful soul, who is very dedicated to her craft. She is an absolute pleasure to work with!

As a queer body positive person, whom is also a mother, I have great appreciation for Samantha’s mindfulness as a massage therapist. She makes me feel so comfortable, safe, and understood when I’m on her table and I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. Her prenatal massages were hugely helpful during my (pandemic) pregnancy. I am enormously grateful for Sam and her hands- they’ve done wonders for my body.
