professional recommendations

It is with great pleasure that I highly recommend Cindy Bechard to you as a massage therapist. I have not only referred several of my patients to Cindy for massage but I am also a client of Cindy’s.

I have been in chiropractic practice for 19 years, and Cindy is by far one of the best massage therapists I have worked with.  Every patient I have referred to Cindy has been very pleased not only with her ability and knowledge, but also her desire to serve the needs of the client and to make sure the massage is tailored to their needs.  It is because of her years of experience that she is able to adapt and modify her approach as needed based on the client on the table.  This is something I have experienced personally from my massages with her as well as what my patients report back to me after seeing her.

I would also like to add that Cindy is very professional in her demeanor and conduct at all times with her clients.  This is something that I feel is very important so clients know they are in good hands.

Cindy is amazing! She works with many of my clients and family members - all of them have been thrilled with their experience. I feel blessed to know her and to have received bodywork from her.

Cindy is a genuine healer and if you are considering working with her, l would urge you to do so. It is an experience you wouldn't want to miss! She has an insatiable passion for what she does and for learning more about her gifts. I believe her to be one of the best bodywork providers in Northern Colorado.

testimonials

“Our daughter is on the autism spectrum and has sensory issues that can make touch unpleasant, as well as motor control issues that affect her gross and fine motor skills. We received a recommendation for Cindy at Treestone Therapeutic Massage from our local autism community, and right off the bat, Cindy was amazing. During the first appointment, she took the time to get to know our daughter and carefully talked all of us through the Masgutova Neurosensorimotor Reflex Integration (MNRI) massage therapy process.

We have seen immediate and long-term results! Our daughter used to struggle with taking stairs step-over-step, almost always stepping down with one leg and bringing her other foot to the same step. The day after her first massage, she came down the stairs step-over-step without any difficulty. We also completed a 5k walk this spring, which has been a goal of our daughter; it took some time to work up to it, but she completed it with a single brief rest. Our daughter has also truly connected with Cindy, in her own words, “Cindy respects me as a person and is a very good massage therapist.” She genuinely looks forward to her sessions now (and sometimes gets a little grumpy if a scheduling conflict occurs!).

We are so thankful to have discovered Cindy and Treestone Therapeutic Massage. We give them our highest recommendation to anyone considering therapeutic massage for themselves or their children.”

Cindy is amazing. I highly recommend if you have a child in need of help with self soothing/ calming down and regaining internal balance.

“Cindy at Treestone Therapeutic Massage is an absolute gem for families with medically complex children. Our 9-year-old son is non-speaking and was not yet walking when we first met her. Our son is incredibly sensory-seeking and active, I was initially hesitant about how he would handle a traditional massage setting. Cindy completely eased those fears; she meets him right where he is, working alongside him as he plays and explores. I originally sought out massage to help alleviate the physical stress his body endures from being off-balance, but Cindy has provided so much more by using MNRI massage for reflex integration. It has transformed his physical awareness.

Since adding Cindy to our regular therapy team his sensory regulation has improved significantly, leaving him feeling more grounded and fulfilled. Most importantly, his motor planning and balance has improved and our son is now walking!

She has built a beautiful rapport with him—he truly views her as a "buddy" and his face lights up the moment we pull into the parking lot. Seeing him giggle and smile through his sessions while gaining such a vital physical milestones is a gift. We are so grateful to have Cindy on our team!”
