The Latest News at Sherman Mills…

Check Out The Below Article Featuring Sherman Mill’s Very Own Massage Therapy Center, MELLOW MASSAGE! 

Mellow Massage Therapy Center is named the 2010 No. 1 Best Massage by the MyPhiladelphia17 HotList –http://phillyhotlist.cityvoter.com/mellow-massage-therapy-center/biz/86300

Philadelphia, PA (SeeingGrowth.com) — Mellow Massage Therapy Center is a hidden Philadelphia jewel. It’s snuggled between the banks of the Schuylkill and the Wissahickon Rivers – just off of scenic Kelly Drive in the tiny historically mill neighborhood of East Falls… Most Philadelphian’s don’t know about the charming neighbor to Manyunk, Roxborough, and Mt. Airy… but Mellow is bringing folks in from all corners of the city. East Falls won’t stay a secret for long.

The adorably urban-chic center for massage has done nothing but excel from the very day it opened in January of 2008. Not only have they won Philadelphia Magazine’s coveted honor the “Best of Philly” award (in their first year!), but they’ve gone on to be recognized by Philadelphia Weekly, My Fox Philly, Citysearch.com… the list goes on.

Mellow is located in Sherman Mills amidst tiny artists’ studios and beautiful airy sunlit lofts. It’s home to an unbelievably friendly staff of 13 with the hands of what must be ancient western massage masters. The team of skilled wellness and massage therapists strive daily to bring restorative treatments to the residents of Philadelphia and the Delaware Valley. They’re dedicated to nurturing the minds, spirits, and bodies of their clients.

Unlike your typical day spa, this alternative healthcare destination offers customized, healing massage sessions that are focused on your specific needs. From Swedish, deep tissue and prenatal massage to Shiatsu, Thai, detoxification massages, Ayurvedic Therapy and more, the therapists at this Philadelphia massage center employ diverse modalities to promote overall wellbeing.

Mellow is owned by 29 year old ambitious and innovative entrepreneur, Gerrae Simons. The Lehigh and Drexel University graduate seems to have nothing short of boundless energy. When she’s not at Mellow organizing, scheduling, talking to clients, and running the business, she spends her time teaching piano to youngsters at Lumberton School of Music, working a full time job as a Sr. Contract Negotiator, consulting other aspiring small business owners and jumping in and out of yoga poses. Her thoughts? “Massage is an amazing art. As babies, we are touched constantly – but as adults, we somehow lose the ability to touch one another in a way that is nurturing and healing. It’s amazing to me that through touch alone, we can have such a wonderfully healing affect on our clients. I love therapeutic massage because it truly is an art form as well as a practice that has helped people throughout time. In this space in time, it is not often that we find a practice powerful enough to lift our spirits, encourage healing in our bodies and quiet our minds for just a moment. Yet, fortunately for us, this is the essence of massage therapy. We LOVE what we do at Mellow and our clients can feel that as soon as they step through our door.”
