After a multi week trek, I visited Sagar to help recover my aching body. He is incredibly intuitive and intentional and I would highly recommend a visit.

I have just had the best 90 minutes of deep tissue massage I have had anywhere in the world.
I have many hundreds of massages both back home in the UK but also when travelling all over Asia. Sagar was truly the best therapist I’ve had the pleasure of being massaged by.
Not only will you leave feeling amazing, you will be doing a great thing to help blind and visually impaired people to learn a trade, be offered opportunities to be independent whilst the organisation uses our payment to also provide equipment like white sticks and slates.
If you have only one massage in Pokhara, choose Helping Hands.
Sagar - I wish you, your wife and new baby girl a lifetime of happiness.
See you again soon.

My friend and I came here for a massage today. She had the Swedish massage and I had a Ayurvedic massage. They were very good. The ladies were professional, the price was a little above average for the area I think, but I’m happy to pay extra to support a Spa with such a great concept behind it! Would definitely recommend :)

I got a deep tissue massage from Sagar and it was fantastic. I’ve had over a hundred massages before and this one was one of the best.

I had a massage with Sagar who is a wonderful massuese. The shop also sells various local handicrafts all made by people with disabilities. Well worth a visit.

After descending ~8000 feet on the final day of our trek I had some very, very sore muscles. I've been getting massage in Boston for the last year to help alleviate a calf injury and I knew I would need one to help me through the soreness from the descent. I called ahead and made an appointment with Sagar. He was amazing. He worked out all the knots in my calves and quads which were the most affected. He used sophisticated techniques of moving the muscles while applying pressure which helped me recover much quicker from my trek than I would have otherwise. I highly recommend getting a massage here... and ask for Sagar! He is incredible.

I’m sad to see some of the negative reviews here as my experience was truly fantastic with Sagar. I am admittedly a spoiled massage snob and I can truly say that this dude rivals any one I’ve had in the States. I think he really understands the anatomy and has worked very hard to develop solid English skills. He was a good enough English speaker to explain the structure of the Nepali government to me. Very impressed with him!
