Alexandra Diamond was so wonderful. She created a very safe and nurturing space from the moment I walked in till the end. She knows her muscle work and my body felt so well cared for and relaxed after. She also did some craniosacral work that I’d never experienced fully and on that level. I released so much emotionally and that my body was holding. Highly recommend her.
I had my very first acupuncture treatment with Katie Bowens , I truly did not know what to expect, but was willing to do anything to relieve the pain in my back and knees. Katie spent a lot of time explaining her process and then went to work. She was caring and gentle and very aware of my apprehension to the process. I want Katie to know that I actually slept the entire night for the first time in more than(I'm not sure) a month. I am truly looking forward to my next treatment. Thank you Katie!!!!
House Nine is everything I want in a bodywork and wellness center. The atmosphere is relaxed—truly. It doesn’t try too hard to be relaxed, it just is. They have lots of wonderful teas, gifts, and supplements and I can’t wait for their teahouse to open again so I can hang out there and sip tea.I have had several acupuncture and cupping sessions now with Katie. Each one has been profound, releasing deep tension, and causing some glacial shifts to occur. Katie is thoughtful and incredibly intuitive in her treatment process. She takes time to listen and understand the issue, and has a deep understanding of body systems. If you are considering acupuncture or cupping, Katie is your person.
The hot stone massage from practitioner Oleander Midnight was hands down the best massage I've ever received. Oleander was professional, intuitive, and took time to understand and ask questions about my specific situation (an old injury) before the massage started. Ten out of ten would recommend!
(TLDR: I have chronic pain and get massages all the time. Over two sessions- Kiesa gave me a singular healing experience, that feels like a significant life event.)I have significant misalignment in my neck that has caused chronic headaches and noticeable deep tension in my neck & shoulders for pretty much my whole life. I get massage pretty regularly—like once a month, in New York City, where I live. I never expect massage therapy to be corrective, but just relieve a layer or two of tension and reduce my headaches for a bit or help me sleep.I came across House Nine while visiting my sister here and decided on a whim to schedule a 60min therapeutic massage. I was delighted to meet Kiesa, who instantly made me feel at ease. She was attentive and supportive and creates an unpretentious, focused environment. At the end of 60 min, she acknowledged the remaining work to be done - I booked a 90min follow up as soon as her availability allowed. I don’t know how her fingers know where to go but besides revitalizing my neck, she seemed to release things in my hips, ribs, back, arms… the side of my head(!!) that i was not attuned to. As their site says, “By deeply listening to what is present in your body, we aid in a great unwinding of stress, tension, & pain.” They certainly made good on that one!I don’t know how long my new body will last but I’m grateful to experience it for even a minute. What a gift.
House Nine has the complete package. Super convenient location, a beautiful space, friendly and welcoming staff, and stellar practitioners.Meeting Katie at House Nine is one of those experiences that reinforces my belief that some things are meant to be. My partner was seeing Katie for acupuncture and fire cupping and would come home raving about how great the experience was. I had never had acupuncture and decided to give it a try. After a few sessions now, I can say that Katie is one of the best health practitioners I've ever seen. She is welcoming, listens, and clearly has deep knowledge and wisdom, combined with an intuitive sense of where I am that day and what will be most appropriate and beneficial in the context of my overall course of treatment. I have enough experience to know how rare this is. I can't recommend Katie highly enough!
Best massage I've ever received in my life. WOW. It was amazing. And the space was clean, warm, thoughtful, and calming. What a huge privelege to e part of the House Nine Wellness and receive such an incredible treatment.
Honestly, it was one of the best massages I've ever had. The staff is so kind and just lovely. They really listen to what you need from the massage and build on that. Overall have LOVED House Nine.

House Nine is where I go for a sacred pause. Even though I only had thirty minutes to spare, I was so renewed by my massage with Tannia. She listened and then had an expert healing touch that met my needs.
