- “We received the greatest compliment the other day and it is the ‘reason’ we continue to do what we do. Chris Tolp, Extreme Endurance Athlete and Owner/Trainer of Isotolp Fitness, came to Bodywork Connections almost as a last resort. He had tried just about everything and the medical profession was herding him towards surgery. He took a year of doing self care but his discomfort wasn’t going away and it was inhibiting his training & competition. The dreaded thoughts of ‘Am I done?” were starting to creep in. He called and asked what he thought Bodywork Connections could do for him. We discussed a ‘strategy’ and after 3 sessions, he came in and said “You Saved My Athletic Career!” Oh, the sweet, sweet sound of successful accomplishment. THAT!!!! is why we do what we do. YAY!!! ”

- “After two months my back is still doing better than it has since 1979 when I injured it in a fall. It’s just unreal how much better I feel and now I can do activities that I haven’t been able to in years. I just wanted you to know that I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate all you have done for me (and in only “one” session of therapy.) You really are a priceless asset to that chiropractic office in Holly Springs. I look forward to coming in again for your ‘special’ touch of massage therapy. Once again, Thanks ever so much”
-Mrs. G. B. , Clayton, NC
- “I consider Bodywork Connections an integral part of my health maintenance and improvement program, not a luxury. The therapists are truly therapeutic specialists and know the body like no one else around here. They have carried me through chronic disc injuries, new foot injuries, pregnancy, and now ‘mommy’ injuries. Without exaggeration, Bodywork Connections is the first call I make when I don’t feel well.”
-L.H(client for over 8 years), Holly Springs, NC
- “I have been on the Yearly massage program(Annual Program) for over ten years (even before Sara opened her office with Dr. Atwell) and the benefits have been just tremendous. The way I feel for the entire month knowing that my body has cleansed all of the toxins and worked out all of the stress knots is reassuring of all of the other benefits. I will continue the monthly massage not only for the health benefits but also because of the affordability incentive.”
-D.R., Holly Springs, NC
- “Thanks, the massage rocked! I will be calling you often for more massage!”
-T.H., Cary, NC
- “We would like to thank you for taking care of us during the last year. You always want to know if our areas of concern have been fully addressed. You never rush our treatment and always make a point of taking a genuine interest in our lives. God’s grace!”

- “It truly was the best massage I’ve ever had. One of the best parts was the foot massage – it totally relaxed my whole body.”
-K.B. Holly Springs
- “My husband & I have been faithful and satisfied customers of Bodywork Connections for over 5 years. My personal experience with Bodywork Connections comes from numerous visits used as a form of physical relaxation and mental rejuvenation. On several occasions, after performing strenuous tasks, I have also needed treatment for strained muscles. I have walked into the therapy room, my neck muscles a mass of tangled knots and walked out feeling loose and pain free. The highly qualified and experienced staff has a tremendous standing in the community and their reputation for excellent service is well known. I can speak honestly that the staff of Bodywork Connections makes you feel special and that your needs are first and foremost! ”
-B.K., Holly Springs, NC
- “You are wonderful. I haven’t had the aches and pains I normally have since I received my massage over two months ago. I am starting to have a few little aches and want to come in and take care of them early. I feel great!”
-M. D., Cary, NC
- “Thank you so much for my recent massage. I have to say that it was the first real massage (other than my wife’s!) that I had ever received, and what a delight it was! Your comfortable and relaxing atmosphere, along with strong professional hands soothed my aching muscles within minutes. I appreciated you explaining the therapeutic affects of the massage on the various muscle groups beforehand. This allowed me to understand what I was feeling as we went along. The hour was over far too soon, and as I returned to the world of reality, I felt such a sense of peace and contentment. I think that massage is just as great for you mentally as it is physically. I certainly look forward to a return visit soon. Thanks again and keep up the good work over at Bodywork Connections!”

- “We missed your warm hands. We tried few other massagers (from US) all of them are good, but nobody have such a ‘mama’s warmness’ like you do. Me and Olga missed already on the next day you’ve left.”
-Max U., Ukraine, Olympic Athlete
- “I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your help with my secondary progressive MS (multiple Sclerosis). Massage has been a huge help to my quality of life. Before massage therapy I was in constant pain, now I am pain free 80% of the time. Again I thank you”
-B.H., Atlanta, GA
- “Bodywork Connections was absolutely wonderful. The therapist took the time to discuss any hotspots I had and then went to work. She was extremely thorough and never rushed, even finding a knot in my shoulder that I hadn’t spoken of. She always made sure that the pressure was right and the environment was relaxed and peaceful. Excellent service! I’d highly recommend it.”
-D.H., Atlanta, GA
- “Bodywork Connections is the best massage therapist I have ever encountered. The therapist was able to work out areas that I never thought possible and is great with all aspect of the massage. . .gentle yet firm touch and very tuned in with the person she is working on.”
-K.R. Holly Springs, NC
- “Sara’s hands are ‘God sent’. I can meet the physical and emotional demands of my professional & personal life because Sara skillfully releases the tension and stress that lives in my back and neck. I confidently refer all who are suffering-needlessly to Bodywork Connections.”
-M.B. DDS, Garner, NC
- “It has been my experience, as a Chiropractor, that massage therapy greatly enhances both an individual’s recovery and maintenance of their rehabilitation from any soft tissue injury. Most every patient that takes advantage of combining massage with his/her chiropractic care improves more quickly and efficiently. A massage before an adjustment; to loosen the muscles, makes for a smoother adjustment or a massage after an adjustment; to assist the muscles in maintaining the adjustment. It has been my extreme pleasure to work in conjunction with such exceptional and knowledgeable massage therapist as Bodywork Connections.”
-R.A., DC, Holly Springs, NC
- “Bodywork Connections is one of the most skilled therapy clinics I have ever encountered. When I know a patient of mine will benefit from deep tissue work I always recommend Bodywork Connections.”
-K.B., DC, Apex, NC
- “You’re in good hands with Sara Toogood. As a chiropractor, I have long been aware of the benefits of massage therapy, and have recommended it to many of my patients. Over the years, my greatest challenge was to find a knowledgeable massage therapist who would treat my patients well. After several years of referring patients to massage therapists all over the Triangle with only fair results, I was fortunate to learn that Sara Toogood had relocated to Holly Springs from California. I met with Sara, and knew right away that she was different than any massage therapist I had met before. Sara is incredibly knowledgeable about anatomy and physiology, and the therapeutic benefits of massage for all sorts of musculoskeletal complaints. Although massage therapists do not formally diagnose conditions, Sara is adept at determining what’s wrong with her clients and formulating the most appropriate approach to fixing the problem. I have consulted with her on many of my patients, and she has consulted with me on many of her clients. Sara and I both agree that people with painful conditions benefit the most when their providers work together. Sara’s 25 years of experience as a massage therapist are recognizable the minute she begins to work on you. Her abilities far exceed those of any massage therapist I have ever met. Sara is always professional and sincere, and she truly cares about helping other people. It’s clear that massage therapy is far more than a “job” for Sara. She has dedicated her life to helping others, and she does it extremely well. I unequivocally recommend Sara Toogood!”
