Testimonials
Ashley gave an amazing massage!! Asked thorough questions beforehand to understand what my needs were, ensured I was comfortable throughout, really concentrated on those problem areas, and when I left I was able to raise my arm all the way above my head!! I haven’t been able to do that in quite a long time due to a shoulder issue!
This was one of the best massages I've ever had. My therapist was very skilled at being able to adjust the pressure by my muscles reactions. I will be back soon. So glad I found this little gem!
I highly recommend NOLA Stretch & Recovery. By far, the best massage therapy and facial stretching I’ve ever had!! Lydia and Tana are true professionals and I’m sure the other staff members are as well.
Lydia is the best!! I have been seeing her for 15 years and drive from Slidell once a month for a great massage.
I have been going to NOLA stretch & Recovery for over 2 years and it only gets better and better each time I go. The team there knows my muscle issues and when I walk out I feel like a champ.

A “massage therapist” is a professionally trained and licensed practitioner who has completed extensive education in therapeutic techniques, focusing on health and wellness benefits. The term “masseuse” is less formal and doesn’t necessarily reflect professional training.
During your first full body massage, expect a relaxing environment where you will be asked about your health and massage preferences. The session typically involves a variety of techniques applied across the body to relieve tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.
A full body massage generally includes treatment of all major muscle groups including the back, shoulders, legs, feet, arms, hands, and neck. Techniques may vary, but the goal is to release tension and promote a sense of overall well-being.
The intensity of a massage should be comfortable for you. It’s important to communicate with our professionals about your comfort level and any sensitivity or pain you experience, as the pressure can be adjusted to ensure the massage is effective yet relaxing.
