- Hot Stone MassageOn a recent trip to Galena my mission was rest, relaxation and time to enjoy and appreciate the beauty of God’s creation. I was fortunate to have Gerald provide my hot stone massage in the Spa of the hotel where I was staying. Gerald contacted me a few days in advance to coordinate my massage and followed up with me the morning after my massage. Gerald listened to my areas of concern and customized the massage for my needs. The massage was therapeutic to my body and revitalizing to my mind while calming my soul. My muscles felt like “buttah” and I slept peacefully. The next morning I was out for a run and felt reenergized. Thank you Gerald for arranging the massage around my schedule. Knowing I didn’t have to get in a cold car after my massage was wonderful! I will whole-heartedly recommend Gerald to my friends traveling to Galena and look forward to my next massage.

- Full Body MassageI have had massage at different spas, resorts and hotels all over the world. Jerry Moore is right at the top of the list of massage therapists. He is very well educated on the latest therapies and techniques. He has an intuitive sense of what your body needs and knows how to get your body to respond to its needs. I have had both hips replaced within the past 4 years. He was able to give me a full body massage less than a month after each surgery and it helped not only with my general pain level, but also eased the tension that the body has when restricted by a surgery of that kind. I have used Jerry many times and he continues to be my first line of defense when some orthopedic issue arises. I can not say enough good things about him as a massage therapist and would recommend him to everyone.
