On each visit, Michael always ask what areas of concern I have and remembers issues from sessions well over a year ago and ask have they improved.

I have been seeing Mike for years and keep going back for a reason. Mike is the consummate professional. Mike's deep knowledge of physiology and massage techniques provides me outstanding benefits.In my case, I am willing to drive an hour one way to see him because you don't often find such a quality therapeutic massage professional of his caliber. I also have a nearby "emergency" massage therapist whenever I am unable to make it that far because of my many health issues, which goes to show the many problems I ask Mike to help me with.Mike uses a combination of fascial, deep tissue, cupping, gua sha, and other techniques I can't remember, to decrease or relieve my many disabling pain areas. I sometimes walk in using a cane and no longer need it when I leave. For my severe issues, I only wish those amazing benefits would last even longer, but it is really worth it to me because the usual medical treatments I have had over the years can't achieve half that result.Mike also stands out because he can identify and describe precisely what are my problematic muscle paths, connections, joints and mobility connections, areas of inflammation, etc., in a way that I not only can understand, but also that I can share meaningfully with my doctors by using the same medical vocabulary they use. Mike is one of my key medical/therapeutic health and wellness professionals. I can only hope others feel the same way each time they see Mike.I find Mike is particularly unique for his ability to focus on hard to release pain areas like intercoastal muscles and hip/lower back/thigh injuries. Mike's personality is a most interesting combination on top of it all: he is laid back, mild mannered, incredibly smart, well rounded, caring, respectful and perceptive.I don't typically write online reviews but want to do it here in the hope any reader, whether they have mild tension, and all the way across the spectrum to those with chronic disabling pain, can take into account this actual review written by me. I am an actual individual speaking from my many visits as a client. I am not compensated in any way to endorse or recommend Mike. In my humble opinion, Mike truly is the top of the crop.

I have had hundreds of massages by dozens of massage therapists over the years. Mike is 100% the best I have ever had. I travel an hour each way to see him—it’s that good. Highly recommend.

Wonderfully effective and relaxing massage with LMT Hillary. Each massage session can be customized to concentrate on any particular area that needs attention. Office and rooms are very professional and well maintained. Office location near PA100 & PA113 intersection convenient with plenty of parking. I always depart feeling refreshed and vitalized.

I have had back problems since a car accident in 2009. Michael listens to what concerns you have & address' issues you are having. I ask for gift certificates for every holiday- you can order online & print them at home. Michael has helped me so much!

I have gotten massages regularly for over a decade. Mike is in a league of his own, and I happily drive 45 minutes each way to get the benefits of a session with him. He is professional, puts you at ease, communicates well, has a clean & safe environment and is incredible at what he does. I leave not only feeling relaxed and less stressed, but I also know that I have gained a healthy therapeutic session for my body. He knows how to address muscle knots & tension without causing pain. He's truly the best!

Paquette Massage and Wellness is FANTASTIC!!! As athletes, my husband and I have both seen Michael numerous times. Michael is extremely thorough, professional, and reliable. He once even had me in his office during a massive surprise snow storm. I was relieved that he did not cancel our appointment, as he very well could have-- a true testament to the dedication to his clients' wellness. Thanks for everything, Michael! You are the best.

I get massages regularly at Paquette Massage and am very happy with both the results and service I get there. Mike is knowledgable and dedicated. I have a chronic pain condition and massage is an integral part of my wellness plan. Although I worked with Mike before Covid, I want to comment on how careful he is to maintain a safe environment under these conditions. I highly recommend Mike and Paquette Massage.

I’ve been using Paquette Massage for a few years now. Mike is excellent at what he does and he listens to your needs and focuses on those areas. My job requires a lot of heavy lifting and shifting my body in weird angles but Mike always makes me feel better when I leave! I highly recommend Mike! I will never use anyone but him!

Mike is the best massage therapist I've ever gone to see (and I've been to quite a few). He knows exactly where you need work done (even if you don't know yourself) and applies just the right amount of pressure (not too hard, not too soft, just right - like Goldilocks, haha, funny, funny). Two thumbs, enthusiastically way up! He's a must see!

I’ve visited other massage therapists, and have found Mike to be the best. He listens well and can address my problem fully, then provides diy hints I can do at home. I appreciate his professional yet casual demeanor. The office is relaxing. He knows his stuff!

I can't say enough about Paquette Massage and Wellness! Not only does Mike have magic hands, but he's extremely nice and completely professional. I've followed him (and his hands) from one venue to this third, and I'll never go to anyone else for massages! It's more than rubbing... it's helping repair my issues. Mike listens to my concerns and helps correct my aches and pains, plus coaches me on stretches and other exercises to minimize further issues. The prices are more than fair for the service provided. The atmosphere is relaxing and CLEAN! I constantly recommend this company to all of my friends and family. Mike is simply the best! 5 stars!

Over the years I have tried many different massage places to relieve my back pain and to also relax. Michael provides very professional massages that not only eases my pain and relaxes my muscles, but he does it so I don’t have the typical soreness from deep tissue massages. He listens to his clients to understand what works and how they are feeling to develop an individual plan. Michael also provides education on muscles and trigger points, and what you can be doing at home. At Paquette Massage, you are not treated as just another client as I have felt at other places. Michael shows true interest in his clients and is very personable. I would highly recommend Paquette Massage!
