Testimonials

I recently started using the sauna at True Roots and it is such a wonderful way to detox and support my immune system. The rooms are comfortable and welcoming. The saunas are cozy and clean. Special amenities like hot towels, salt stones, filtered water and tea provide one with a true spa experience. True Roots Massage is truly a big city spa with small town service!!

I am visiting family for thanksgiving and had the opportunity to come in with Darby for a full body massage and it was amazing. I am a Chicago city gal who has had many a professional massage and this one was the best one I ve ever had!! The place was so warm and comforting and personal and the body butter from lifemoods was so wonderful I had to buy some to take home after. Whether you live in the area or are just visiting GO HERE I recently started running and she took special care to work out my legs!

Travel around 2,389 miles to take a seminar in the Kansas area. I was for 2 weeks which was draining regarding the information and the dynamics that occurred in the seminar. When I returned from the seminary it was so drained that I could not hold it and it was at that moment that I walked several steps from my hotel and found this place full of peace and harmony called True Roots massage. The treatment and the service was something out of this world. Darby with his noble smile and his full heart to transmit all his positive energies so that my body could find the direction of healing. It really was an angelic experience. Certainly if you need your heart and your soul to align in the direction of healing do not hesitate to visit this beautiful and peaceful place full of peace and harmony.You will not regret I guarantee it

Wonderful experience! Time and time again Darby provides excellent service above and beyond what is necessary. What started as an indulgence, quickly became a part of my self-care regimen. I have been in several car accidents and thrown multiple times by horses. This, along with hours in the car, and sitting in an office chair, had led to stiff and sore muscles and a decrease in my activity level. It was apparent from the start I had more mobility and less pain after an hour’s time on Darby’s table. Now, an added benefit is that I get sick less often! I am very thankful for the work Darby does. She keeps me moving and doing my job better!

Darby is very thorough. She asked if I had any issues and then she concentrated more on that area. She used a new massage cream that seemed to hydrate my skin better than her old lotion and did not leave the residue of the massage oil. I highly recommend True Roots and Darby. I always love massage day!

Darby has a God-given gift that she willingly shares with every person that schedules a session on her table. Each time I am there, I feel like I’m her only concern from the time I enter the studio until I step out of it. She listens intently. She personalizes that session to your current needs. She ensures that she has addressed each and every concern you have before you leave. Time at True Roots has become medicinal physically and spiritually for me.

A repeat customer here!

The décor, scent, and vibe are all designed and executed to make True Roots an escape from the day’s fast pace. Darby’s skill is top notch and I would recommend her to everyone. She’s very in-tune and adjusts based on my needs each session. For me, massage started as a one-time treat to myself. But thinking back to that very first time, I knew I would be back.

Darby has since become an essential part of my overall wellness program. Massage is every bit as important to my fitness routine as cardio, weights and yoga. I have become more aware of my muscles and body in general because of Darby’s knowledge and work. She is incredibly talented & passionate about her work and it shows. No two sessions are identical so they seem BRAND NEW every time! I have explored various add-ons such as skin brushing, hot stones, and the dry sauna. Just when you think a massage doesn’t get any better, it does! Each appointment seems more amazing than the last. Darby outdoes herself time and time again. I can’t say enough positive things about this studio.

Wow!!!

I am amazed at all the different modalities Darby brings to the massage table. I am a huge fan of myofascial release which I have had amazing results from. True Roots Massage has so much to offer when it comes to physical and emotional well-being. I am a forever client!

So Blessed!

I am grateful to be able to go to True Roots massage to see Darby on a regular basis. Each time, she addresses my current needs, not only physical but emotional and spiritual, as well.  Her myofascial techniques have contributed to my physical healing while her soothing massage and spiritual intuition have often calmed my emotions and restored my soul.  I feel so blessed to have her here in Atchison!

Wonderful Darby!

Darby does amazing work! She can work out those tight knots and find those tender spots! She is soft spoken and easy the tension away!

Location: Small Town; Services: Not so small town

Darby and Myka are top notch. They put so much into individualizing each session, I always feel important to them every time I walk in the door. After all these great reviews, if you aren’t convinced to call up and make an appointment, then you never will.
