AMAZING! Absolute BEST massages on the planet. Skilled and dedicated, Dawn is exceptionally gifted at her craft. She is on another level with what she can do. The list of techniques she’s mastered was impressive when I asked her about them all. I’ve sent family and friends to her and they all agree she’s the best. You don’t know what you’re missing til you go to Dawn!
