Testimonials
First time there and it was great! Can’t wait to go back.
My reiki session with Heather L was great!
moreAaron was very inviting and really took the time to understand my massage goals. He was very skilled and his techniques were very effective. I can tell that Aaron puts a customized approach on his massages and he doesn’t make you feel like just another client. I highly recommend Aaron!
moreLove the inviting vibe of the business from the minute you walk in, to the time you are completed with your appointment. Everything was amazing! Will definitely return and try other services as well.
This was my first time ever receiving any massage services. Barb was amazing and took time to explain everything to me. She was very educated on my specific areas that needed work. It was recommended that I try cranial sacral therapy from other providers to help with TMJ/muscle tightness. I felt great upon completion of my session and look forward to continuing this service in the future.
moreGina has treated me monthly for the past five years. Initially to help with migraines but other aches and pains along the way as well. This alone speaks to my extreme satisfaction with her compassionate care and expert massage treatments. Along the way Gina has offered up additional useful advice for coping with chronic pain of various types. Our world needs more Ginas!
moreSpur of the moment massage! First time there. Loved my experience! I have been to many places and this is by far the best I’ve ever had! I asked her to extend my time it was so good!!!
I’m a picky person when it comes to business being clean and was very satisfied with them and their building.
moreI have been to Balance on Buffalo a number of times. The staff is absolutely wonderful, the atmosphere is soothing and spotless. The facilities are top notch. I have had many massages in my life, none can compare to the individualized and healing experience I have received at Balance on Buffalo!
moreLet me start off by saying that I am not a big meditator but I decided to give the Harmonic Egg a try because I've been feeling rushed in my daily life. And WOW was the egg an awesome experience! Feeling the music sort of "lift" you up and flow through your body was really powerful. I left the egg feeling refreshed and in better spirits. I wish I lived closer so I could go more frequently. If you are on the fence, definitely give it a try. You will NOT be disappointed! Thank you, Balance!!!
moreI am so grateful for Balance on Buffalo! I had a wonderful remote Harmonic Egg session and am excited for my next one! She was very attentive to my needs, went above and beyond to help me set my intention, and helped me get the most out of healing my inner child. Thank you so much for such an amazing experience!! I highly recommend an egg session for anyone dealing with physical pain & or trauma!
moreBalance on Buffalo is a beautiful place to revive your energy. While there I experienced the Egg which gave me a sense of peace and relaxation. Gina spent time talking to me prior to entering the egg to determine what my needs were, so that she could properly program it to meet my needs. Once entering the Egg, the chair reclined back, I was wrapped in a soft blanket, and the sound and light began to envelope me in a serene environment. After emerging, I spent some time in the salt room. The beds are comfortable and ergonomic, and the light gives off a calming wave while you listen to your choice of music. I highly recommend visiting Balance on Buffalo and experiencing all they have to offer.
moreLove, love, love Balance! I have been coming for massage for a long time and always feel amazing. The sound massage is also wonderful. I have recently tried the Harmonic Egg and I wish I hadn't waited so long to try it out! It was amazing, the music and sounds felt like it was coming straight from me and I was so relaxed it was almost an out of body experience. I noticed a significant improvement in my chronic symptoms in the days following. Can't wait for my next session.
moreI came to Gina with upper to lower back pain and tightness. She took the time to find out the reasons why I was having pain and where the pain was occurring before we even started on correcting the issues. Gina got me to relax my body so she could manipulate the muscle tissues back to where I could move without pain.
I would recommend Gina to anyone having back pain. She is very professional and listens to you and what your body is telling her.
moreSoundbath in the Quantum Breathing Room was exactly what I needed at the end of a stressful work week. It calmed my body, mind, and soul in the best way.
I loved it so much last week that I went again tonight — and I already know I’ll be attending more.
Heather is an incredible instructor. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or just need a reset, I can’t recommend this experience enough.
moreFrom the moment you walk in every detail has already been thought of. I love the warmth of this space and how I feel right at home with the scents, the lights and the sounds! It's no act of luck that this is a sanctuary for healing! Gina has worked 23 years and still is always 100% present to ensure you are well cared for! Thank you!
moreI cannot recommend Barb enough. She is an incredibly skilled massage therapist who combines technical expertise with genuine care for her clients. She listens closely, pays attention to what your body actually needs, and creates a customized, comfortable, calming experience from start to finish.
Barb was a huge part of my self-care routine for over 10 years, and I always left feeling better physically and mentally. What sets her apart is that she does not just go through the motions — she is thoughtful, intuitive, professional, and truly invested in helping people feel better. She has helped me through injury recovery, fibromyalgia pain, and cancer recovery.
She is also kind, trustworthy, and easy to talk to, which makes the entire experience even better. Anyone looking for a skilled, thoughtful, and caring massage therapist should absolutely book with her. If I had the budget, I'd fly to her every month for treatment. Wisconsin got a good one!
moreI see Heather about every 5-6 weeks to help with lower back pain and sciatica. She is amazing! She always knows what areas of my back need the most attention and the trigger points to release tight muscles. I always leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

I have had only positive experiences at Balance. I have had massages, salt therapy and most recently a singing bowl session. All were fantastic. Balance on Buffalo is a beautiful space and I feel better just walking through the doors. And I love the boutique!

So glad I signed up for the Rooted in Sound Retreat and Sound Bath this last weekend. We learned about so many sound instruments like gongs (that was awesome), drums, also singing bowls, chimes and so much more. Best of all we got to experience playing them and receiving them. This was the most fun I've had at a retreat in a long time, probably ever.
I highly recommend this Retreat and the Sound Bath when they offer it again. Wyatt and Gina are both so knowledgeable and good teachers.

I have been a client of Balance on Buffalo for years. It is a very special place. I’ve had singing bowl experiences, massage, salt room, sauna, cupping, harmonic egg and massage. It is a sanctuary of positive energy and healing. Gina is continually creating new experiences. I will be a life long client.

I have stage 4 breast cancer and get weekly deep tissue massages with Gina in order to support full-body detoxification. GINA IS WONDERFUL. Her intuitive sense of which areas of my body need the most attention is always spot on; her overall massage technique is absolutely what I need. These massages play an essential role in my cancer healing, in re-setting my body to a new level of balance, and in supporting my overall sense of well-being. I am so grateful for Gina and her gifts and for the healing she is helping me to achieve.

I recently stopped in at Balance at Buffalo, to see what services are offered. Greeted by pleasant staff member and was given a brief tour of the offices and services. I scheduled an appointment in the Halo therapy booth… this was amazing. Heat, light, and music therapy. 30 min. I was experiencing wheezing recently.. not common for myself. I have not wheezed all weekend and feel much better. Going back for more next week. Thank you G

Special THANKS to Gina for bringing the Harmonic Egg to the Lakeshore...I am WOWed after just two sessions!
I've wrestled with effects of PTSD for most of my life. The egg provides a safe, soothing and grounding experience, giving my central nervous system permission to relax and reset so I can get clear. While I'm not a fan of tight or closed in spaces (claustrophobic), the enclosure did not trigger me. It has DEFINITELY supported my goal of diving deeper into the hidden emotions and patterns that have been interfering with my emotional and physical well-being since I can remember. It has become easier to see my triggers (and work with them) after a session, without being thrown into survival mode...and that's after only two sessions!
The medicine the egg offers is invaluable in my opinion. The ultimate in self-care. I believe everyone would benefit from at least trying it. My experience has been so positive that I've invested in multiple sessions so I can continue AND share some with family/friends. It's worth every single penny!

We've done the Halotherapy salt booth many times now and have always had a nice experience and good results. It's been helping with sniffles and coughs when they arise for a few years now. The kids love the lights and how warm it is in there. Wonderful place to visit for healing!

This place is amazing. So welcoming and pleasant. Gina is a blessing. She made me feel very comfortable even though I wasn’t at first. My wife came with and while she was willing to wait in the lobby area, Gina allowed her into the salt room for a bit of relaxation for herself. I came for the harmonic egg. I cannot explain the feelings and emotions I had while in there. The most profound experience I’ve had to date. Gina went above and beyond. I’m definitely going back for more. Thank you thank you thank you.

Heather did an amazing job relieving my neck and back pain during my last visit. Much needed :)

Carrie gave me quite possibly the best massage I’ve ever had… and I’ve had a LOT of massages! I’ve had a sore neck for several weeks and wanted relief. Carrie listened and focused ALL 45 minutes on my neck. Not just that, but the pain is mostly on my right side, so that’s where she spent nearly the entire time. The last masseuse I had still gave a full body massage even though I told her the only reason I was there was for my neck. Thank you for listening and for the pain relief!!

I tried a CBD infused massage today…wow I felt very relaxed all afternoon after wards. Pressure was perfect. Thank you Carrie!

One of the best massages I’ve ever had! Definitely appreciate the attention and focus on my problem areas. My therapist wanted to go the extra mile and tried multiple techniques to relieve tension in my back, and it paid off. I haven’t felt this at ease in a long time. Thank you. I will definitely be coming back.

Wendi is so talented! Each time I see her, I feel relaxed and relieved of tension and pain. I recommend Wendi’s massages to family and friends knowing if they will instantly feel better. The space is clean and calming. Balance on Buffalo is one of my favorite places in Manitowoc. Thank you, Wendi!

I had a therapeutic massage with Heather and she was amazing! I feel so relaxed and less tense. I highly recommend Balance On Buffalo as well as Heather as your massage therapist.
moreI was suffering from severe sinus pressure and found the salt room at Balance in Buffalo. I didn’t know what to expect, but I left feeling absolutely amazing! The room is so peaceful and comfortable. I listened to a self meditation on the MP3 player they provided for the session and felt so relaxed I actually went to sleep for a bit. After my session, I felt so light and relaxed. My sinus pressure was decreased and the next morning I felt a huge difference. I can’t wait to go back again, this is a great opportunity to help your overall health and with letting go of stress!
