“Penny has given me some of the best massages I have ever had. Her techniques were so helpful when I had a sore shoulder/back. Her massage method has been consistent in working out the kinks in my body, one in particular in my neck that I was happy to be rid of. I think Penny has come up with an approach to deep body work that is different and really provides an above normal experience. It would be great if she could share her method because it is getting harder to get appointments, which is no surprise at all.”

“Penny is an excellent massage therapist. Oftentimes, I have a ‘hitch’ in my gate from tight glutes & psoas area. Penny uses leverage, pressure and balance to release the area and I am able to walk again with a free and easy stride. Of particularly unique benefit is her ‘knees on the glutes’ technique. She balances herself, specifically both knees on the glute muscles until they release. A very effective confusion maneuver. Penny is an expert massage therapist, and in my opinion, highly qualified to instruct others in the techniques that she uses with excellent results.“
“My wife and I both have enjoyed Penny’s massage works. We both enjoy the distinct way Penny delivers her methods. Thanks so much and see you soon!“
“Penny’s massage therapy is unique and produces great results. I have found it to be useful towards injury prevention and rehabilitation. Thanks, Penny!“
“Penny’s unique style of massage therapy has provided direct medical and lifestyle benefits to me. As a patient of back surgery, I have constantly fought to maintain a healthy back and keep the pain away. Penny’s progressive dry therapy approach is a key component to my maintenance program. I would recommend her to become an approved Continuing Education Provider for the IDFPR (state) and NCBTMB (national) boards.“
“I have had nothing but great experiences during my massage therapy sessions with Penny. She is very informative during the massage process and takes the time to explain the techniques she is performing. She works on the areas that she feels need attention and is very thorough. After a massage with her, I definitely feel the benefits. I have had many massages in the past, but since finding Penny, she is the only massage therapist I would like to see!”
“I have very much enjoyed having Penny work on me over the past few years. For one thing, she gives her clients a clear and thorough description about the massage treatment that she is about to perform and then, she actually provides the explained service as it was described. Very often I have found that providers ask questions about preferred massage techniques, pressure levels and areas to concentrate on, or avoid – only to deliver a generic service that is not responsive to any of that feedback. Not so with Penny. She has mastered a variety of massage techniques and is adept at delivering the service that is required by the situation presented. She listens carefully to client requests and delivers the service that is asked for by her customer. I have also very much appreciated that Penny will make suggestions about problematic areas (in my case, lower-back knots) and will request permission to try a new, or tailored technique, that may provide additional relief. I consider Penny to be the best service provider in her industry and I have frequently referred her to acquaintances who are investigating massage resources. Penny is patient, knowledgeable and has a unique ability to communicate anatomical concepts in a way that is readily understandable to a lay person. I think she would be ideal as a Continuing Education Provider.“
“I have had the pleasure of receiving all kinds of massages, worldwide, over the course of the last 40 years. Penny Chelios is among the best massage therapists I have ever experienced. She has a superior knowledge of the body and a sure touch that enables her to address specific issues. She is able to customize her approach to each client to maximize the experience. I would recommend her without hesitation.”
“Penny’s deep-tissue massages are the best! They really get to the heart of any aches and they are highly effective in addressing pain. I wish I could get them more often.“
“Penny has a unique ability with massage therapy that is unmatched by any experience that I have ever had. Her knowledge of anatomy and how the various parts of the body interact is incredible. The net effect is that a client leaves with a complete positive impact and not just a simonize that is rendered by so many others in her industry. A critical factor in her effective delivery of massage therapy is her genuine enthusiasm and commitment to realize customized results with her clients. She is an excellent teacher of what clients need to internalize with regard to maintenance regimes and follow-up post-massage. She is just so enthusiastic about her career and sets a new standard in her industry that will be a real challenge to match. She has a strong interest and unique ability in teaching her techniques and helping raise the bar for her industry.”
“Penny’s massage methods go far beyond simply feeling a little bit relaxed as I get off the table. She is very focused on pinpointing problematic groups of muscles and working the area so that it becomes less problematic for weeks to come. I have had great results in my back (a consistent problem area for me) from Penny’s massages. Her massage is certainly not just a quick rubdown. You feel it. And the results from a single session are often noticed for weeks! Penny is incredibly talented at what she does and I would recommend her highly and to anyone.”
“I feel that Penny’s massage methods are able to provide more benefit in an hour than any other massage modality I have experienced in the past. The techniques she uses provide significant relief from stiffness or pain, yet it does not create soreness afterwards. It is helpful to know that each manipulation serves a specific purpose and Penny makes that very clear in the context of her work.”
“As a former college athlete, my body is always hurting. The only way to alleviate the constant pain is through Penny’s deep-tissue massage. People don’t realize how effective these massages are. The benefits surpass any other massage I have had! Penny’s method leaves your muscles free and relaxed.“
“I have had massages from Penny Chelios. Her massage methods are wonderful. She is my preferred therapist when having a massage. I can’t describe her techniques because of lack of knowledge but I will describe my body”s response. Penny is able to get the knots out and I feel much better for days. She works the deep tissues. I highly recommend her.“
“I have been receiving massages for eight years. I used to have massages at Georgette Klinger. I have had massages on a Disney cruise (excellent) and even once at the Tokyo Hilton (Japanese massage in July, 1981). So you could say I am an expert on massages. As one who has long suffered from osteoarthritis, I need a deep-tissue massage regularly. Without question, Penny Chelios gives the BEST deep-tissue massage, EVER! As she is working on me, I feel better. When I get up from the table, I feel even better. It is almost impossible to describe how much better my knee and shoulder (which have undergone replacement surgery) feel after a deep massage with Penny. Now that my arthritis has spread to my neck, I am having massages for my neck and my shoulders, as well. I cannot recommend Penny and her technique too highly. Her hands are absolutely therapeutic. Her treatments are essential to my health and well-being, especially as I am about to turn 69 years of age. I shall continue to need her massages into my 70’s and recommend her to people I know.“
“Penny is a fantastic massage therapist. She pays attention to your needs and has an amazing technique. I have been to many therapists and have had many massages and Penny ranks above them all! I would strongly recommend Penny for all of your Massage Therapy needs.“
“Penny is an absolutely outstanding massage professional! The service she provides, the advice she gives, and most of all the techniques that she uses are truly at the highest standards of quality. I have never received a better message in my life, and I am not kidding about that. I have chronic neck and back pain and since I started going to Penny, my pain has decreased dramatically. I talk about Penny’s massage so much that I think my husband is getting jealous. Penny is wonderful!“
“I have received massages from Penny Chelios for the past year. Each experience has been great. She asks about any muscle, or pain issues you may have before she starts. She is also concerned about pain issues as the massage progresses. She explains what she is doing and why, which is very helpful. I wouldn’t even consider going to another person for a massage. Penny is great and I have recommended her to several friends.“
“I have had countless massages by professional massage therapists over the years. My goal has always been to find some relief from sore muscles – especially in the upper back area, and to a lesser extent, for my legs with an emphasis on the calves. Most therapists do an adequate job of what many would call the ‘club rub’, but I usually left their tables without sufficient attention to the deep muscles where most of my soreness/problems resided. Penny’s systematic dry massage, deep-tissue approach is really the only massage therapy that allowed me to leave the table knowing and feeling that my long-term aches and pains had been addressed so that I could move without pain and with fluidity. I have found no other massage therapy that can favorably compare to Penny’s work. I can’t recommend her approach and execution highly enough.“

“Penny Chelios is an outstanding massage therapist because (1) she has a deep knowledge of human anatomy, (2) she has technical skill to reach soft-tissue with the right touch and work out tension with use of pressure and moist heat applied appropriately, and (3) she has the interpersonal skills to listen to her clients and put them at ease. Penny Chelios would be an outstanding candidate to teach deep-tissue massage. I would recommend her without reservation.”
