Services We Offer
I have been going to Anita for 15 years. I started going because of a nagging Achilles/plantar fasciitis
issue and have continued because of the overall benefit for my mind and body. Anita is so amazingly
thorough with checking in each time to determine my needs that day as well as how things are going
with past issues. She explains what her plan is before, during and after the session by letting me know
what feels tight and she uses diagrams to show what tendons, ligaments, and muscles are contributing
to my discomfort. The facility is welcoming and clean. You feel relaxed as soon as you walk in the space.
Anita is amazing. I highly recommend her to my friends whenever I get the opportunity.
I have been a client of Anita’s since she first opened FCF Massage. She is kind, caring, very professional
and listens to your problems or concerns at each visit. She is highly skilled and continues to educate
herself to be up to date with all techniques and modalities. Her first and foremost concern is your well-
being. She is THE BEST!
Do not hesitate to make an appointment with Anita, you will not be disappointed!
I have been going to Anita regularly for many years. With my first appointment I was a little nervous,
however, Anita quickly made me feel very comfortable. I can’t be happier I went through with that initial
session. The therapeutic benefits of going to Anita have helped me with numerous challenges through
the years. She has helped me through regular aches, pains, and soreness to alleviating numbness in my
arms and being extremely beneficial through my back surgery rehabilitation. I have extreme confidence
in Anita’s knowledge and approach. She’s a tremendously skilled professional, appreciates feedback,
provides great advice and loves to teach and educate. Anita customizes her approach to focusing on your
specific areas of need, or if preferred just an all-around relaxing massage treatment. Everyone who I
have recommended Anita to has been extremely satisfied.
“I have been going to Anita for several years and she does an excellent job at massaging out the kinks in my muscles. If not for Anita, I would not be able to maintain my CrossFit workout schedule!”
“I’ve been a client of Anita’s for 14 years. Her workspace is peaceful and always immaculate. She has a flexible schedule which includes evenings. Anita has helped me both with injuries and also working out the knots that result from being too busy all the time."
“Anita is the best massage therapist I have ever worked with. Although I live in Chicago now, I make appointments with her each time I am in Attleboro because I can't find anyone nearly as good in Chicago! Anita is highly skilled and extremely personable; she really listens to my problems and communicates well about the actions she is taking while working on my body. She also always walks me through what she did afterwards so I have a better understanding of what's going on with my body. Further, Full Circle Fitness is an extremely clean and comfortable space. Massages from Anita helped complement the physical therapy I needed on my back and neck to reduce severe chronic pain that I had for years, and I am so grateful for Anita's skills that have made me feel much better!”
"It was 11 years ago that I started to experience excruciating pain radiating down the back side of my right leg. My doctor prescribed Oxycontin for the pain which did not help. I went to Anita for deep tissue massage, and after going consistently every two weeks, it didn't take long for the pain to go away. Since then, whether it is stress at work or back spasms, I go see Anita. She always makes time for me. In addition, about five years ago, my husband suffered from terminal lung disease. The medicine left him with fractures in the vertebrae and constant pain. Anita's efforts helped him relax the muscles and feel tremendously better in his final days. Anita is amazing and I am her number one cheerleader!"
“Anita is the best! She is knowledgeable, professional and always on top of the newest and the latest. I’ve been to plenty of day spas and I no longer bother. Going to Anita makes me feel taller! Her studio is calming and beautiful and she always explains what she is doing. She asks a lot of questions and listens very intently. I couldn’t imagine going to any other massage therapist - ever!”
“There are many positive remarks to make about Anita Laraia, but let me highlight a few key ones I’ve experienced first-hand. She is a caring professional who provides an individualized consultative approach by listening thoroughly and then tailoring her massages to the specific needs of each person. She is highly talented and skilled. She creates a relaxing environment. The list of positive things to state about Anita is very long. In a word, finding Anita was like finding a hidden “gem” for me. I highly recommend Anita.”
I have been visiting Anita every three weeks for about eighteen months alternating 60
minute and 90 minute sessions. Her knowledge of human physiology, training, experience,
and sensitivity are all put to great use in addressing the client’s issues - be it relaxation or
relief from pain. I like that we begin each session reviewing any changes in my health or
physical condition. Her shared office is quiet and decorated so as to provide a calming
effect. Massages are performed in a cozy room tastefully decorated, and the massage table
is very comfortable. Anita is interested in learning your preferences: music or not; heated
table or not; scented oils or not; talking or silence. Her goal is to make the experience as
satisfying for you as possible. I highly recommend her.
