Brenda, I must say that my sessions with you are most rewarding! You are a remarkable healer! It is a joy just being able to spend time chatting with you both before and after each session. I thank you so much for what you do!
Amazing feeling of balance and relaxed when I leave.
I have been coming to Brenda for massage monthly for several years. Brenda always inquires about how I am feeling so that she can address specific parts of my body to relieve tension or assist the healing of injury. She has a methodical approach that begins with reflexology of the soles of my feet, which is a pleasant way to begin. I generally come in with tension in my shoulders and arms, and she is usually more aware after the massage of how much tension I was carrying than I was. She is very gentle yet thorough in working on tense muscles, and if there is any discomfort it is an indication of how tense my muscles are, not Brenda being rough or kneading excessively. Brenda is tuned in to what she is finding as the massage proceeds, and attentive with applying healing techniques, sometimes inquiring if her technique is too aggressive. I know and trust Brenda’s techniques to relax me and will continue to be a client for years to come. I recommend Brenda Armstrong for anyone who needs relief from muscular tension, body misalignment and injury from repetitive motion. Her techniques and experience with bringing healing to a variety of ailments always works for me.
Brenda is amazingly skilled! She takes time to learn how you are feeling before and after the massage. Her table is kept warm and comfortable. She has the room lit nicely with soft relaxing music and sounds. Her hands work magic on my muscles and joints. She has been incredibly patient with my stubborn body and has helped reduce my tension and pain significantly. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
I was in a lot of pain and my upper back has been spasming for several days. I went to my chiropractor and she helped but I still had lingering pain. I scheduled my massage with Brenda and within 24 hours my upper back pain was almost gone! I wish I could leave more than 5 stars! As usual, she knew exactly what to do for me and where to do it.

I left relaxed and renewed. all the kinks. Gone
2 months after surgery you eased my muscle aches and pains…I will keep up with your care as I continue to exercise and relearn to walk with the knee replacement..Wanda
I liked having an initial conversation with Ms Brenda before the massage, it was a good way to introduce ourselves and understand her method. I normally dislike massage oils with strong smells, but the lotion Ms Brenda makes and uses was wonderful, very lightly scented and refreshing. The massage was excellent, it was very peaceful and I didn’t have any discomfort the next day. I loved her tea with brown sugar she’d offered. It was a lovely way to finish the session.
Very healing and positive environment. Was able to have more range of motion and less pain after my session. Brenda has such an incredible touch and sweet spirit.
I had a wonderful session with Brenda, i was so relaxed afterwards I slept for 12 hours!
“5 stars” doesn’t begin to be enough for Brenda! I was extremely fortunate to hear about Brenda from a friend. Hands down, the most skilled therapist I have ever encountered. I have a chronic low back issue and Brenda addresses any flare ups I have, but more importantly by seeing her regularly it keeps my body in balance. She is knowledgeable, professional and if you are looking for the BEST, you will find it in Brenda 🙂
Brenda provides a healing touch without any pain. I have mobility issues and Brenda is able to help relieve the pain from these issues. I have been going to Brenda for over 10 years and will continue to go to her until she decides to retire!
Excellent work. She followed up the next day to see how I was doing. A consummate professional!!!
Brenda is highly skilled and identifies exactly what your body needs. The whole experience was healing, rejuvenating, and transforming.
Brenda has a healing touch. The Stone Massage I received was amazing. I left feeling extremely relaxed and peaceful. I would recommend A Touch of Wellness to anyone.
The training and dedication Brenda has put in definitely shows when your favorite day is no longer the weekend but it’s that wonderful hour you get with her.
It was the best massage I ever had. I highly recommend to visit Brenda.
Nothing ever to dislike about this consummate professional who really cares about her clients!
Brenda is amazing! Her years of experience and knowledge make all your aches and pains just melt away. Massage is a necessity to stay healthy and active and that is why everyone should at least try it and Brenda is the BEST!
Excellent massages, You are amazing at restoring my body to optimum functioning. As a nurse, I was very impressed with your cleaning to protect us.
Brenda is amazing. I am having lots of back and neck issues and with Brenda’s help, it is getting better week by week.
Brenda is highly skilled and identifies exactly what your body needs. She creates a safe, clean, relaxing atmosphere. The experience is relaxing and rejuvenating.
I couldn’t have found Brenda at a better time in my life. I and my body were in a great need of help. Brenda is very professional, experienced, and knowledgeable. You can tell right away that she truly cares. To say the least Brenda is amazing! I can’t imagine my life now without Brenda and her services! She is a true blessing!
I have been getting various problems fixed by this wonderful lady for a few years, she is THE professional in this area, and is probably the best in this part of the country. Maybe the whole country, possibly this hemisphere. I think the other hemisphere is trying to catch up to her.
I am so happy that I was introduced to Brenda. Her kindness and caring were evident and her ability as a touch therapist is outstanding!
Brenda was very sweet and very knowledgeable. It’s hard to find a good masseuse. Brenda was great!! A bit pricey compared to what I pay in NY but worth it.. Brenda went above and beyond my expectations by doing a follow up call the next day to see how I was feeling.
Always a great experience. Brenda is wonderfully intuitive and has helped me tremendously.
Brenda provides a very high level of service to her clients. Each time I visit Brenda for a massage it’s as though I’m transported to somewhere relaxing and calm [ like a vacation] and I’m not in the middle of busy Pinellas county.
Her calm demeanor and true interest in her client’s well being creates a level of trust and expertise that is hard to find in her industry. I highly recommend Brenda to anyone looking for a professional LMT that gives outstanding value and true expertise.
Brenda always finds the places in my body that need her attention and without painful deep work, she relieves the muscle in contraction and sends me on my way … no soreness later.
The music is lovely, the tea after the massage just adds to the experience. She has many skills in her tool box and she consistently surprises me with each new technique.
Hi, I am a Precision machinist still working and operating a small business at age 68. Lifting heavy tooling and pushing carts full of parts around the shop is a standard daily practice which never seemed so strenuous until a few years ago. I found myself really aching after a long day.
A manager of my MH park suggested this place and after awhile I found time to stop in.
Brenda is the complete professional and quizzed me as to where the problems were. My back is no longer a bother and my walk is better because of the work on my hips she has developed. It just works. She has so many different ways to take the stress off your neck and back.
I remarked to her one day “This is the only thing I buy that is worth way more than i pay for it.” You will feel the same.
I am healed!! Last week I seriously pinched a couple of vertebra in my back while doing yard work.
After visiting massage therapist Brenda Armstrong at A Touch of Wellness in Pinellas this morning I am amazed by the loss of the pain I had been feeling! Thank you Brenda.
Best hot stone massage I’ve ever had. Brenda has collected stones from beaches all over the world. She takes great care in every detail of your visit and is simply a wonderful person. After the massage she brews a cup of tea for you to transition back into the hectic outside world. Bring a little extra money and buy her home made tea blend to take home. You will be glad you did.
Brenda Armstrong uses a unique monitoring system where we can hear the body responding to the massage therapy. She is sensitive to my level of comfort with the therapy and doesn’t try to apply more pressure than is needed to release muscle tension.
Her therapy relieved me and assisted healing of arm issues I had suffered for more than a year before, and I was completely healed of that injury in just a few visits.
Regular monthly visits are pleasant “tune-ups” for relieving my muscles of all of the stress my body has absorbed through physical activity and emotional distress.
I can assert that Brenda’s massage therapy will “work” in relieving muscular and joint pain we get through injury and being active human beings.
I have known Brenda as a healer, co-manager, friend and advocate of important worthwhile causes for thirty plus years, in Toronto, St Thomas and Florida,
To know her is to value her extraordinary contributions to life, peace, truth and humanity.
A Touch of Wellness is a FB fan page SO deserving of your LIKE. Brenda Armstrong is a gifted massage therapist who makes use of psyche-soothing oils, scents, and common sense. She’s a “Stress Solutionist” extraordinaire!
Under Brenda’s gentle and intuitive care I continue to experience a genuine sense of ‘all’s right with the world’ . Thank you again!
I have been to many Wellness experts and Brenda is by far the best I have ever had the pleasure of receiving a true healing touch from! Brenda is amazing. She is kind-hearted, caring and filled with knowledge.
For all of you out there who have been considering A Touch of Wellness but have not been to see Brenda – you MUST be good to yourself and make an appointment with her. You will never regret it.
In lifting and moving large 25-pound objects and using a 3-pound orbital sander for five hours, I re-injured the tendons in both of my forearms and the arthritic joints in my hands.
This caused pain, inflammation and stiffness in both hands but more severely in my primary hand. I did not even feel like brushing my teeth because of the pain.
I applied two coats of this gel. Three minutes later, all the symptoms had subsided.
Very happy with this purchase. Great product and I will be getting more.
I used this on my chronic areas – shoulder, neck, elbow, etc., and my jaw which had been in deep pain for a day. This helped me tremendously!
Amazing product! This stuff really works. I love that it does not contain harsh chemicals. Does exactly as described. The scent is light and soothing. I would highly recommend this product. Great seller. THANK YOU.
Brenda! Brenda! Brenda! Awesome. I am glad I chose you. I will be BACK. Thank you for sharing your gift.
That was amazing! Thank you for your healing touch. You’re awesome.
Spectacular session — deep relaxation mind body spirit. Thank you.
The most relaxing experience! Brenda’s care, attention to detail, and love/passion for her talent is felt and embodied in every action from the moment you walk through the door. I will see you again soon. I loved it so much and have never felt so relaxed. I truly appreciate your service and I plan on telling all of my friends. Thank you!
Thank you w/extreme gratitude and many blessings for your compassion and willingness to help me after a stressful, traumatic experience. Namaste Precious Soul. Will have to come back for more massage.
Wishing I can fly back from CO every month! You were great! Thank you again!
WOW ! Brenda, your work is so amazing! I feel like I have stepped into a little slice of Heaven, a healing sanctuary where none of my troubles can follow…
You are the most intuitive bodyworker I have ever experienced ~~ so in tune with my body and teaching me even more about it.
Without your therapy I would not have been able to heal from my car accident and trauma as quickly as I did. Each time I came in your awareness of how I was feeling informed your work for that day and I feel I am getting the best treatment I could get when I’m in your hands (literally + figuratively)
I enjoyed Brenda’s session. The theory discussion re stress was interesting. I was hoping we could have spent a bit longer on that part. When she mentioned foot massage, I sensed an uptight reaction but that was soon overcome. She has and brings a calming, quiet, relaxed spirit to the sessions. On the whole, most enjoyable, relaxing and for me a whole new experience.
An excellent job with a lot of people new to her field — positive personal results were experienced — feel benefited from the experience.
The workshop was excellent. Brenda’s friendly, relaxed manner put me at ease immediately. The massage techniques are something I will find very useful and the format of the workshop (ie: practical) allowed me to retain the knowledge better than if it had been a lecture format. I loved being demonstrated on for the foot and face massage. I think I would have been a bit self-conscious had I been the first. Thank heavens for Renee! Totally worthwhile morning and I’m glad to have met Brenda. Thanks for organizing it.
Thanks for being such a warm human being. I think we all appreciated the experience.
“This was an excellent course which I think had a lot to do with the instructor. It would really be nice if you could teach to certify students on a professional level. Great!”
This course validates for me the power of touch and healing.
I would like to take what I’ve learned in this class and improve my skill in the professional aspect of this field. Thank you for devoting your time to introduce us to your world.
Please come back and teach another class. Also I thank you for opening my eyes to the human body. It’s a great machine.
I have learned a great deal – about massage – and about myself. Thank you!
Thanx, Brenda, for everything! You are by far the best teacher I have had.
You did a good job. Take a bow !!!
Dear Ms. Armstrong:
On behalf of the University of the Virgin Islands, please accept our sincere appreciation for your participation in our Benefits Fair held December 6-7, 2005. Your participation helped to make our Benefits Fair a success !
The Human Resources Department has received positive feedback from those employees who attended. Your willingness to participate and the wealth of information and guidance that you provided is highly commendable.
Again, we say a heartfelt thank you for your participation. We look forward to your continued participation and support of the initiative of the University’s Human Resources Department.
Sincerely,
WOW ! You made it happen. Senators Burke and Gomez join me in offering our congratulations. The Woman’s Legislative Caucus is so very grateful for your time, commitment, and cooperation in planning and executing a series of wonderful events. We hope you are as convinced, as we are, that your efforts will have a long-term, positive impact on our communities.
Brenda, your manner relaxed everyone, and your knowledge and ability to communicate with people elicited everyone’s trust, even for very new ideas and experience. What a gift !”
…………..followed several years later with this note………………
” You work with the same integrity and care as you did when we met in 1982 and your massage introduced me to bodywork and body wisdom.
Brenda, I would like to extend our thanks to you on behalf of the residents of the WP Archibald Community Residential Centre for your informative and delightful presentation of Stress Management. During the discussion, it was evident the men not only enjoyed your animated approach to the topic but from comments made afterward to both myself and other staff, it was obvious they had absorbed and assimilated a lot of information.
Brenda is an exceptional woman and massage therapist. She delights in aiding other therapists in their quest to enhance not only their massage careers but to enrich their personal lives as well.
It was a pleasure to be coached by Brenda; I left with an expanded knowledge on how to move forward on my career path as well as a helpful tool kit of information to help direct my goals and ambitions along the way.
Thank you,
I have known Brenda Armstrong for some years now. This highly intelligent lady tutored me for the Ontario Department of Health examination for my (massage therapy) registration. The high marks I received in this examination were in large part due to Brenda’s teaching. Brenda possesses the skills which make her a ‘natural’ in the teaching field.
Brenda also has a very high reputation as a very capable and efficient therapist who is sincerely dedicated to helping people.
I had severe disabling pain in my lower back and figured I’d try Brenda’s massage therapy. After one 30-minute session, I was much better. The next day I awoke with no pain !
I have chronic, severe lower back problems caused by degeneration of two of my lumbar discs. Surgery has not been recommended for this, but rather an ongoing program of lifestyle control and exercise.
This condition is aggravated by stress and tension to the extent that I have difficulty walking. Because my doctor suggested an ongoing program of massage therapy, I began seeing Brenda Armstrong for weekly massage therapy eight months ago.
There has been significant improvement in my physical wellbeing since this program began. Not only does the therapy reduce stress and tension, it also improves my flexibility and overall muscle tone. I have had almost no back pain or difficulty walking since I entered therapy.
Brenda is a disciplined health professional whose massage therapy program has provided me with significant physical and psychological benefits. Her weekly sessions are an integral part of my back maintenance program and one which I would strongly endorse for other sufferers.”
I suffer from traumatic arthritis as a result of a motorcycle accident and have had several operations with the hope that there will be a decrease in pain.
With the pain causing tension in various muscles ….. leading to more discomfort…… my coping mechanism fails, making life miserable.
I’ve been receiving treatment from Brenda Armstrong in the form of massage therapy once a week for nine months. Brenda works to relax muscles, release tension and break the pain / tension cycle and enables me to cope.
Since seeing Brenda, I have been able to live my life without the ‘haze’ of painkillers.
A Touch of Wellness is a proper title for a most relaxing experience. Ms Armstrong is well trained and adapts her knowledge to the individual and their particular problem. She is a pleasant, friendly extrovert who can work silently or be verbally supportive.
I know I will have feelings of gratitude the rest of my life for my contact with this form of treatment.
I have always known Brenda’s Touch of Wellness to be just that: a profound experience of enhancing my sense of well being on much more than just the physical level.
I wanted to create a whole day of nothing but simply feeling good, a segment of time just for myself, to begin with one of Brenda’s treatments and end with one — the space between filled with all the activities I’ve known to uplift. And what a day it turned out to be !
The morning treatment released physical tension, softened muscles, created space in my skeletal structure, the perfect preparation for my yoga practice. The evening session presented evidence of perfectly balanced currents of energy flowing through the subtle levels and a deep sense of connection to self. It was a great reminder of gentle therapeutic touch effortlessly freeing and summoning much energy, through Brenda’s inspired work.
Thank you Brenda for your unique approach to wellness at its best.
As a runner and squash player, I have seen many of my friends sustain serious injury while participating in these sports. My visits to Miss Armstrong help prevent such injuries because of her excellent techniques for stretching and massaging my muscles and joints. Similarly, muscle aches such as a stiff neck or sore feet can be alleviated totally during one of her massage sessions.
Stress from life in general can sometimes make one’s day intolerable. There is no greater relief than to relax in a quiet, soothing room and have the tightness and feelings of frustration worked away through massage. Miss Armstrong is performing an extremely useful service for her clients.
