Mars Hill's Massage and Health Center

"I started seeing Dr Rakhshani shortly after he moved his office up to Mars Hill from Asheville. I was initially looking for a massage, as it had been several years. Those first few appointments were eye opening. There was a lot for him to work out of my system and he did a great job. I wasn't looking for a relaxing spa massage but something to really help my muscles and problem areas. And even better is that he has so much knowledge from his PhD education and experience, especially from his time in India. He can tell where my problem areas are just by feel, and gives those areas extra work. And he doesn't just do massage. He provided a great daily routine I can do to maintain my health in between massages. I feel i can ask him anything and he has good thoughts to share that are helpful. Of course he is very knowledgeable about nutrition and healthy lifestyle. I am still with him two years later and always look forward to my visits. I only wish I was able to go more often. And if you want to talk, he'll listen. if you want to fall asleep, no problem. I urge you to give him a chance!"

"Came to Abbas, an overweight, out of shape, in pain flatlander needing my body to adjust to mountain life. Six months later, following his sage advice, focused body work, luxuriating in his warmth and wisdom, taking his instructions, I am stronger, gardening, building up to more hikes, twenty lbs lighter and feeling much more energetic. Very appreciative"

"Mars Hill was mightily blessed the day our beloved Dr. Abbas arrived. I have received huge amounts of body work and alternative modalities of healing in my life. The body work Dr. Abbas performs transports me out of this body and to a realm of improved health. I so appreciate his wisdom, kindness and understanding that we are here on the dance floor of life to truly dance. I feel 40 years younger, and inspired to embrace life fully after an hour and a half on his table. Thank you for landing in Mars Hill."

"Dr Rakhshani takes the time to listen to your body to see what it needs. It not only helps in the short term but he looks at the future health of your body and how your posture carries you forward. Very professional and thorough!"

"I absolutely love the mhmh center. The providers/staff are so friendly. They have such a cute dog on 'staff'. I try my best to avoid taking medications for pain and this is a great solution for pain management. They go out of their way in order to make sure they do all that they can for you. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area."
