I first discovered Laura Buckley more that 15 years ago ... I had never had a “Deep Tissue” Massage before. That first session was an eye opener for me. I have always been physically active and enjoy working out on a regular basis. Not only did I feel better after my first session, but it led me to seeing the benefits of Deep Tissue Massage in the long term. Laura has treated me for various aches & pains, injuries, and other issues due to the aging process. I have always been proactive about my health (exercise & diet) and she has been an integral part of my overall health program. I go on a monthly basis to maintain and maximize the health benefits. But, you can feel benefits from even one session with Laura. I have recommended Laura to a number of my friends over the years.

Laura’s massages helped me through some very difficult shoulder and neck pain caused by a frozen shoulder. She was able to target muscles that were very tight and help with some relief from stiffness. I recommend her services to anyone interested is a therapeutic massage. My whole family has visited her and love her service. (JK, Lakewood)
I started having serious neck pain around 2015, as it became worse and still undiagnosed, my new manager talked to me about going to see Laura. She gave me her card and told me how much Laura had been helping her with Myofascial issues. I had previously only bad experiences with massages. When I was finally diagnosed with an autoimmune neuromuscular condition, I discussed massage therapy with my neurologist who agreed that once or twice a month would be good for me but only with someone trained on neuromuscular conditions. That’s when I pulled out the card and made an appointment with Laura. Upon first meeting her I got a very comforting feeling and quickly relaxed. Before we started she wanted to understand my current condition and history. The pain release I encountered was amazing. I have been seeing her religiously at least once a month for approximately two years. Since I was later diagnosed with a condition that causes frequent falls, each time I go in she asks me what’s been going on and where do I need her to focus. Half of our time is always spent on my neck and surrounding areas, but she has also helped me when I have hurt my back or am experiencing muscle pain in my arms. Each time I walk out I feel like a new person. I always thank my former manager/friend for her referral and gentle prodding and Laura for her innate ability to know where my trouble spots are. Her rooms are very peaceful, I consider it a true mind and body experience. I honestly don’t know what I would do without her! (PS, Strongsville)
I was challenged with chronic back pain for more than 40 years. Since I started bimonthly treatments with Laura, my back pain has NOT recurred. What a difference in my quality of life! (JC, Cleveland)
Laura is the best, she listens and fixes! My neck is in good hands! (BT, N. Olmsted)
After dealing with chronic pain in my wrist for years, Laura had me back to full-functioning after just two massage sessions. Now, with regular visits throughout the year, I have never again been sidelined from work and day to day activities by wrist pain. After wearing wrist braces, taking more over-the-counter pain meds than I'd like to admit and a number of doctor visits that led to no solution, I now call Laura "The Healer!" For me, this experience speaks to Laura's expert ability to provide healing through massage and the importance of self-care. (JG, Hudson)
After 6 months of Low Back Pain/Sciatica and multiple visits with (2) Chiropractors and my MD, I decided to give Massage Therapy a try. ... After a one-hour session I was able to do a ... stretch exercise that usually caused severe pain without any pain whatsoever. She finished off the active LBP bout two weeks later when I went for another follow-up session. I've seen Laura a few times since for upper back and neck issues and she can cut down a bout with either of these issues that usually last 5-7 days, to being resolved for the most part just hours after I see her. She has a gifted skill set and knows exactly what to do after a quick review of the problem, and I know better now how to deal with things as they come up....I just keep Laura's clinic schedule in my Inbox and I give her a call when these types of problems arise.

I first came to Laura ... when I was in severe daily pain from a TMJ disorder. Laura was able to provide a good education about the causes and relief of TMJ symptoms. One visit and I was hooked. I have been attending monthly for nearly 5 years now as her work has reduced my TMJ pain to nearly nothing. In addition to her skill, expertise, and healing energy, Laura is a lovely and kind person with a great soul. I heartily recommend her to anyone seeking pain relief or just a place to escape and unwind from everyday stress.

I have been plagued for years with vertigo (from Eustachian tube problems) and everything I did gave me either little or no relief, so I decided to try Craniosacral work with Laura. I really knew nothing about this modality at the time, but I had heard about its benefits and figured I had nothing to lose. It’s wonderful! I have been vertigo free for weeks (so far!) and feel an overall sense of well-being that I have to attribute to this work. The treatment is subtle, quiet and relaxing, and although you might not feel much is happening, trust me, it is. Give it a try! (MH, Westlake)
I first started coming to Laura for massages some time ago now, I had a couple massages in the past but really never benefited from them. I am a type A personality and I needed to relax. My first massage that Laura gave me was a whole new revelation to me. I realized that massage offered more than just relaxation, as it made me feel more balanced and whole for several days after. So I continued to schedule with her about once every month- 2 months. I looked forward so much to these massages, as I knew I would reap rewards from them long after the massage. Then I was involved in an auto accident, and my car was sandwiched between two cars. I had whiplash and overall back pain. My Doctor recommended Physical Therapy and Massage. The first time I came to Laura after the accident I could hardly move and was in much pain. She relieved the pain almost immediately, but it was persistent. After a few sessions, though I was starting to feel much better. I really realized the benefit of massage during this period.I do not know how I lived so tight and wound up for so long without massage. Now massage has became a part of my life, something to look forward to. The improvement in my physical and mental health has been enormous, and well worth the money spent. I've been surprised on how massage keeps me limber and allows me to bounce back so quickly when my back acts up, or times become stressful. I cannot say thank you enough to Laura for showing me the proper way massage should work. I have recommended her to everyone I know.

Laura is a very professional and knowledgeable massage therapist. Her calming nature is the perfect complement to her technical skills and attention to detail. Besides soothing my aches and pains, the overall stress relief from a massage lasts for days. Regular sessions with Laura have been a wonderful and beneficial addition to my life. I can’t wait for my next appointment. (MF, Chagrin Falls)
Considering my age (85) and my medical problems, I thought I was getting along OK. But an inner voice kept urging me to feel and to do better. But how? I didn’t need – or want – more medication. When massage was suggested, I thought, “Why not give it a try?” So I did - with Laura Buckley at Westside Massage Clinic. To say that I’m glad that I did is an understatement. I feel better - I do better – and I find that the massages give me a calming of the mind as well as easing the strains on the body. I now have had many sessions with Laura and, speaking from the heart, I wholeheartedly recommend her very competent work. (RC, Cleveland)
