He listens. Then, he let’s you slide into relaxation as he applies his expertise. Brian knows how to encourage both your detachment, to ease away tension, as well as focus, so you can recreate the bliss when you’re off the table. While it’s difficult to give him 5 stars knowing that means he may be so swamped with business he can’t fit me in, I hope someone else finds health and healing in a partnership with Brian. 5 it is!

I have been to Brian on several occasions and he is excellent. The one thing that makes him stand out is his focused intensity. He is very thoughtful and responsive to what my body needs. I have never had to tell what pressure I need as he is very intuitive. I recommend him to All. It also doesn’t hurt that he is nice person.

5 stars all the way! Brian is a true professional! I am so happy to have found someone locally who is this good! I have had several sessions with him and he is amazingly talented at what he does. I got tired of trying various locations though some stupid Groupon or whatever and finally Unilocaled and found him! He is highly experienced in numerous types of massage and he is extremely personable, immediately putting you at ease. He has a really good feel for what your body needs and when. I would highly recommend him to everyone !!!

What do you do when your college student daughter calls and says her back hurts? You go to Unilocal,look up massage therapists and hope for the best-and we found the best Brian taught her so much about posture, stress, working out, that she continues to see him once a month-he listens to her questions and she always sounds happy when she finishes an appointment– Of course he handled the issue that she first went for. He’s great

I’ve been working with Brian for about 6 months now and I’m becoming a bigger fan with each visit. As a hair stylist I spend about 10 hours a day on my feet. On my first visit he accurately pinpointed some of the common issues in my industry; something I was definitely impressed with. Since then, we’ve gotten much more customized to what my specific issues are without having to rehash an in-depth consult on each visit. On a service level, I really appreciate Brian’s professionalism and attention to detail with a laid back demeanor. Brian’s hands(and sometimes a nice elbow) paired his knowledge about posture and balance have become a much needed tool against the aches and pains that often come with my occupation. High marks all around.

Thanks to Brian my neck pain is gone. Brian has a holistic approach to massage with extensive knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology. He discusses what to do between appointments to maintain posture and health. I work long hours and thought that I might have to switch jobs; my body was not recovering. Now I know that I can continue and I am feeling more relaxed and capable after every massage.

Brain’s good. He’s really good. Never rushed, he spends plenty of time on a great massage but also on two-way communication. He tries to get at the root of problems and gives advice beyond the massage session. And he’s just a really nice person. By the way, he uses real music. It’s not distracting but it’s not that new-agey, near-muzak. Last time I saw him he introduced me to the fine music of the composer Jeremy Podgursky.

Wow. I have been to a number of massage therapists over the years. The only thing that makes me sad is that I found Brian after leaving a job where I had insurance that would have paid for massages. Now I have no insurance at all. I should have checked Unilocal sooner. I first went to Brian after spending a week not being able to make a fist with my left hand. Having no insurance and not being able to do my job in such a state, I did the logical thing. I googled my health problem. I have had various RMI problems with my hands and wrists over the years,(thank you(GiantCoffeeCorporation!) and figured it was more of the same kinds of stuff but worse. One of the things I found talked about massage, and yoga and all of that good stuff. Being someone who does believe all of that can help, I thought, «Hmm. Massage. That probably WOULD help a lot.» When I saw Brian’s Unilocal reviews and his location, about 1 block from me, I decided to try him. Wow. He found a knot in my shoulder. When he worked on said knot, I could feel the release in my hand. It was amazing. I know that sounds hokey, but damn. And after a couple of sessions, my hand problem was gone. It’s true what everyone else says about him. He really is that amazing. I am not a girl to schlep all over the city. For anything. But I would travel to Beverly to get massages from Brian.

I cannot say enough great things about Brian. You will not find a better massage therapist. He has helped me with stress and tension relief, a shoulder injury and nutrition advise. Brian is also great with providing the tools you need to continue practicing good health and wellness on your own. I have turned to Brian with other wellness questions because I absolutely trust his professional and personal opinion. Don’t waste your time and money trying other massage therapists– go see Brian Chambers!

Brian is a miracle worker. I have been to different MT’s in the past and he by far is the best. His knowledge and complete understanding of the muscular and skeletal system provides him with the tools to individualize your problem and target the area that most needs work. He has given me several tools and tips to continue my healing on my own, ie posture, stance, etc. He truly is a healer. You will leave his serene, unpretentious space feeling a million times better than when you walked in. Brian is the best kept secret in the Massage Therapy world.

Brian’s massage work is both therapeutic and relaxing. He is super knowledgeable about the body and its functions. I also get positive results from his massages.

I first went to Brian on the recommendation of a musician friend of mine who also suffers from severe tension. As a performer myself, I carry a lot of tension throughout the whole of my body. Brian is wonderful, a real professional with a gift for intoning healing calm and relaxation in his clients, a thing of which I am in great need. One of the things that struck me immediately is how quickly he can pinpoint exact places in need of release, also his attention to detail not only of what the body needs but the levels of pressure that the person can take. Brain is fluent in various techniques(including reflexology) and uses them throughout the sessions. He’s also adamant about a «no-after-pain» massage, he wants to know immediately if something is not feeling good, during and post massage. Seriously, just the nicest guy too! You won’t be disappointed.

You can get a massage anywhere in the city — but don’t bother looking around. Brian is a natural… with fear of sounding cheesy… healer. He’s all about welness, posture, and stress relief, and he has a comforting presence about him. If I could afford it, I would come see him every day. The setting isn’t like your typical snooty over-priced spa, but instead is more like someone’s home. I cannot say enough good things, just go and find out for yourself. I originally found out about him through a friend who said how great he is. She was right; so am I.

I love going to Brian for massages. He really gets the tight spots and the bonus is that he helps you with tips about posture and how to stretch. He cares a lot about his clients’ well being and does a fantastic job!

I’ve been seeing Brian for over a year now and he’s fantastic. If you are like me and enjoy a deep massage he’s by far the best. He’s really commited to making you feel you great and if he knows there’s a spot that’s really troubling you he’ll make sure he really works it(even if it means going over your alloted time). I highly recommend giving Brian a chance if you are looking for a regular massage therapist, you won’t be disappointed.

I can not say enough good things about Brian Chambers and Skylight Wellness. I too, like many of the other reviewers, have been seeing Brian for years whenever I can afford a massage, and I have yet to get a massage anywhere else that can rival Brian’s. I always feel 10 times better after a session with him, and if I have a certain body complaint, Brian will always address it. Further more, besides being the best massage therapist I’ve ever gone to, Brian is an amazing person. He really cares about his clients and will bend over backwards to make them feel comfortable and to try to make a massage financially feasible. Do yourself a huge favor and book a massage with him immediately!

I made an appointment and then had to cancel it at Skylight Wellness. Brian sent me back an extremely rude email about how he had to juggle things around to fit me in and he was sure I would keep experiencing pain if I didn’t come in to see him. It was a very unprofessional guilt trip. As long as I didn’t violate the cancellation policy, I should not have been reprimanded like a child. I will NOT be returning here EVER.

Brian at Skylight Wellness gave me the best deep tissue massage I have EVER had. He is knowledgable, comfortable, professional and so in tuned with his clients. They also offer other services such as acupuncture, etc. Their space is beautiful, and the staff is phenomenal.
