Tai is an extremely skilled professional. Her knowledge of the human body and ability to identify tissue issues and root them out is exceptional.

Tai is skilled and yet gentil. She works on areas that need massage help - where you say you want her to work.

Tai has the unique ability to immediately put you at ease. She is well educated and skilled in her field; including emphasis on myofascial release. But Tai's ability to caringly apply this knowledge to help clients heal is her extraordinary gift.I have had back issues for over 25 years. Some spots are so tender that Tai is the only one I have ever trusted to apply any pressure to them. And that says a lot about Tai.

Tai is an excellent masseuse. She will work on your areas of concern and then find all the spots you didn't even realize were issues. Going back again soon!

Tai is wonderful! She takes the time to get to the troubling spots and is very careful and professional. I recommend her to anyone who has lingering issues or who just wants a great massage.

Due to pain issues resulting from over 20+ surgeries due college football and then a landmine bomb explosion losing both my legs, I've been under Tai's treatment for nearly 10 years. Initially, I would make an appointment when in pain. Sort of a 911 call for help. over the last 5+ years, I've scheduled bi-weekly therapy appointments with Tai to especially treat the lower back and upper back shoulder blades. Pain management and Tai's treatment is five-star, A+, second to none awesome and effective. In fact, Tai is one of the reasons (the other is the UVA prosthetic facility) that I would be hesitant to leave the region. I've had massages in my previous home locations and around the world due to work, and Tai is hands-down (pun intended) the best.

Tai does an amazing job of listening to your needs but an even better job of listening to the needs of your body! I am grateful to have Refreshing Effects/Tai Blakey do my massages! Do not miss an opportunity to have the best massage ever and get on a schedule to have her work with you to help manage your body.

My experience at Refreshing Effects was amazing. Perfect relaxing atmosphere. Comfortable environment. It is evident that Tai has a passion for what she does and is truly genuine. She even called to follow up a few days after my lymphatic drainage massage to check-in and see how I was doing. She is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and definitely cares for her clients. Highly recommend!!!!
