Restoring Balance

I have been for three 60 minutes massages here at Restoring Balance and they were all amazing! I love the feeling of calmness that I get just from walking in the door. They are constantly adding new services, to nourish and support women. I plan to keep coming back here for massages and will also try the community acupuncture, the Thai massage, and the V-​Steam sometime. They also offer Lactation Consulting, birthing from within classes, infant massage and placenta encapsulation, (none of which I currently need). I also know that the place is available for a ladies night out, where a bunch of friends get together to have an evening out with laughs and pampering. I would so love to do this with some girlfriends! I am already looking forward to my next massage in 2 weeks!

I came here for a 60-​minute prenatal massage during my lunch break after having some lower back pain, ostensibly from supporting my growing belly. I had heard a lot of good things about prenatal massage, but I was surprised to find that there are not a ton of providers in the Triangle area. I made my appointment the week before online, which was very easy and convenient. I came for a massage but generally this is more of a holistic woman based healing center. They offer birthing classes, placenta encapsulation (if you’re into that kind of thing), herbal steams, and a bunch of other spiritual zen things. I came in and waited in the first waiting area. There were clear instructions to fill out the standard paperwork and that someone would be with me shortly.
A few minutes after I arrived my masseuse, Latasha, popped her head out and invited me back. The studio had a second waiting room area with 3 – 4 rooms off of it. I was lead back to my room and Latasha explained to me how prenatal massage works (you lay on your side instead of back, how to turn, etc). I thought it was a great massage! Very relaxing and it was a full body massage with focus on the back and feet, which was perfect. The room was dimly lit, smelled good, and had relaxation music playing. Every time I get a massage I wonder why my home bedroom isn’t more like these places? Anyways, I had a good experience with Latasha and I would come back for another prenatal massage from her. Especially after I start to whale-​out, which I’m sure is coming very soon.
The massage studio is in a older office building behind the Sheraton Chapel Hill on 15 – 501 off Europa Drive, technically in Chapel Hill but still pretty close to the Durham line.
