"After a 45 minute Ortho-Bionomy® session the spasming was reduced, and the excruciating pain disappeared"
I've been seeing Marisha routinely for the past four years for both massage and Ortho-Bionomy®. Before a previous foot surgery she worked with me to develop a specific yoga routine I could still do with limited ability to put weight on my foot. Recently I really hurt my back which was in spasm for days, to a point where it was difficult to walk. After a 45 minute Ortho-Bionomy® session the spasming was reduced, and the excruciating pain disappeared to a point where I could function and still slowly recover. Her therapy is spot on when it comes to relieving pain especially as she knows exactly how to identify the problem and provide the necessary therapy to treat the issue. She's also very helpful in helping you understand what the problem is and takes time to explain both the affected area and the treatment she's providing. She really works miracles! Cathy Scheder
"overuse bicycling injury"
Following my overuse bicycling injury, Marisha's use of massage, Ortho-Bionomy® and Craniosacral Therapy were instrumental in my recovery plan. I continue to benefit from Marisha's skills to maintain health and wellness. I would highly recommend her.

From a yoga student who started later in life:
Had an exceptional experience at yoga class last night. Nothing in particular, but I can tell when I go to bed. It's like taking a sleeping pill! I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for "discovering" yoga. I realize I will never be pretzel like, but also now realize that doesn't matter. Your encouragement and positive vibe in the class is truly a gift. Thank you. Namaste.
"consistently listens to what I tell her about my issues and addresses them"
Over the years I have been getting massage, which now run into the decades, I have had quite a variety of therapists. There is only one, Marisha Platner, who actually and consistently listens to what I tell her about my issues and addresses them with massage techniques. Twice in recent months I had back pain that had lasted for days before my appointment. Both times I was pain free within 24 hours of seeing Marisha. She has a wide range of methods to try and uses hot stones as a part of the regular massage as well as what I call her "magic ointments". My husband and I now are on a regular schedule with Blooming Lotus, and I can cheerfully give her my strongest and unqualified recommendation as well as my thanks for the past years of the highest quality service.
