Chula Gemignani CMT

I have seen about 100 massage therapists and she is certainly the best. She can work in the feel good or muscle mode – and she also is very sophisticated when it comes to the structural/​integration/​movement stuff. She is highly skilled. She also will greet you with a twinkle in her eye! She is obviously dedicated to her own health and yours as well. Highly recommended if you are in Nevada city on vacation she is right off the main drag. The office she works in is nice and has a view. I like people in this field who are grounded and spiritual and she is one of them.

I wholeheartedly recommend Chula. She has helped my aching body during/​after pregnancy and also after knee surgery. I have complete confidence in Chula’s knowledge and skills. If you need a CMT, look no further… Chula is the real deal!

Chula is amazing. She has such a unique approach to the human body and all that comes with it. I am puddy in her hands. My mother even likes to visit chula when she comes to town. Worth it!

I’ve been getting bodywork from Chula for a few years. When she’s been out of town, I’ve tried a few others, and honestly, Chula is the best! She zeroes in on what you need, from session to session, and dials up or down the pressure to where you want it, leaving you healed and relaxed.

Chula has been my preferred massage therapist for years since we met in 2006, including a year-​long period when I visited her weekly for massage to heal a leg injury. She was an amazing part of my healing team, and thoughtfully provided recommendations at sessions for everything from stretches to research, supplements, or other practitioners that could help my healing path. As long as I’ve known Chula she’s been continuing her education to bring the best techniques to the table for her clients. Chula’s work with the psoas, the diaphragm, the neck, and the jaw have all been transformative for my body. I like deep tissue work, and she’s met and exceeded my expectations and requests. Chula is professional and punctual, has excellent rapport and has been tender, funny, quiet, and calming with me in all the right moments, as well as accommodating music and sound requests. An hour is never enough, I always like to get an hour and a half!

I always recommend Chula to anyone who asks me in person about local massage therapists, so might as well tell Unilocal
