Whatever your issue is, physical, mental, or spiritual (all intertwine & overlap into each other to cause problems), I would recommend Danny as your 1st step. Before we got married, my husband had gone to several doctors and pain management therapists who basically did nothing but want to hand out pills & do surgeries. While sometimes, yes, we may need to take that route, I would advise you to just test things out 1st with Danny. He has so much intuition, knowledge, & experience in various fields of practice & is one of those rare health workers that genuinely cares and wants to succeed at resolving peoples' health mysteries and issues that they have. My husband will write his own review and can explain the multitude of issues he has and how Danny has improved &/or resolved several things and we still have more to tackle. We are just blessed that I found Danny several years ago and knew to take him to see Danny. He also gives wonderful massages to those not needing medical issues resolved and can both test and treat you for allergies using non-invasive NAET techniques. He also works on chi and chakras and does pendulum work, plus uses PEMF and other tools to increase efficiency of his therapy sessions. No matter what your issue is, put your trust in Danny and try 2-3 sessions before giving up. I assure you that Danny is your best shot at getting help with whatever issues you may have.

My first session with Danny brought great results! His office and massage rooms are nicely…read moredecorated and the mood is set for relaxation when you walk in. Danny's gentle nature overrides any uneasiness. As a senior, I have pretty good health but as we go through life, our bodies (and mind) pick up negative energies and hardening of tissues. These problems accumulate and it takes an expert to remove them. I have chronic back and neck pain and in one session, those issues are 90% improved. He is the real deal and no matter what your problem is, book an appointment with him. I plan to buy more sessions. Danny offers many healing services but, he will instinctually "know" which method to use on you from the get-go. I recommend Esoteric Massage Center 100%!

He is truly a healer and not just a massage therapist. I had a recent anxiety attack from a loss of my family member. I came to Stan's Hands Massage and Wellness for Swedish Relaxation Deep Tissue Massage. Stan knows the techniques to release the bad energy and promoted good energy through massages. They moved to this building early 2019. I like it much better because of parking and privacy compared to last location. My favorite therapy is Sciatica Massage. After sitting at my desk working from home for so many years, I forgot to exercise. That turned me into needing to see a massage therapist more often. They usually give me discount coupons on my birthday and holiday. I also come whenever I can to get treatments. I came back after received my birthday discount. This time, I chose Hot Cold Stone Synergy Contrast Massage. The technique was unique and milder than the deep tissue. It felt so good, I dozed off a few times.

How do you make months of stress disappear in 60 minutes?…read more Go to Touch Method Massage and Body Works and have Thaddeus do his magic! I had been long overdue for a massage (Pre Covid for sure) and had been looking for months for a place with great reviews. I actually found TMM via a Groupon, but I looked at Yelp and Google reviews before I purchased. I did like that I was able to schedule the appointment as soon as I purchased the Groupon, but I guess the offer was so popular that the Groupon scheduler couldn't keep up with the demand. Thankfully, Thaddeus personally called to inform me of the error and the appointment availability. Since I kind of had an ideal time for the appointment, I changed to a different Saturday. I received confirmation of my appointment as well as reminders as the appointment date came closer. Despite receiving a very detailed email about the location, procedures, and protocols in place at TMM, I still ended up arriving 2 minutes after my appointment time because I passed up the address (it does sneak up on you). From TC Jester, you can't really see anything that looks like a building until you pass it up (I am also directionally challenged, so arriving 2 minutes late is pretty good for me)! Honestly, I have always had female therapist (not by preference, just happened that way). I have no objection to a male therapist--it's just new people that I have to adjust to. I respected that Thaddeus discussed with me my preferences for the massage and things I didn't desire. He even emphasized that if anything didn't feel comfortable to inform him. I really appreciated that since it had been so long since I had a massage. I felt no qualms about the massage and rightly so because I felt all tension and stress leave my body after this session. From the warm temperature of table (which Thaddeus checked with me to make sure it was good before he started the session), to the warm oil that meticulously and intentionally eased all the muscles and stress with each stroke of the massage, I was in heaven. I asked for the Swedish versus the deep tissue, so my entire body received the benefits of all that was before mentioned. The music was very calming but not too soft and tranquil that you fall asleep. The icing on the cake--walking out your session with Thaddeus waiting up front to meet you holding a champagne flute of H20 to remind you that water is essential after your massage session. I'm sure I had the biggest smile on my face because gosh--this was a phenomenal massage--one of THE BEST I've ever had. I asked about future bookings and everything is found on the website at https://www.massagebook.com/Houston~Massage~touch#services. Not only will you find monthly packages and packs to suit your frequency and schedule, thanks for showing some love to the essential workers (like first responders and teachers, whoop, whoop) and giving them a discount (call for more details on that pricing)! Although it was a 40 minute drive to get here, it was well worth it! Instead of giving your money to the Massage Envys and Heights that don't know your name, why not support small businesses like TMM and receive a quality massage? One visit, and you will be back-just don't take my appointment time!

It's way more intense than a deep tissue massage b/c he applies sustained pressure to one area in order to break up the fascia. I should have taken a couple shots of whisky before I decided to try this. Throughout most of it I managed not to cry like a little schoolgirl but there were some moments when I let out a couple shrieks. To his credit, he asked me what kind of pressure I wanted and I told me "full force." Am I a glutton for pain? Maybe - I don't know about some people but I really like my therapists to really dig deep and break up whatever is causing me pain. The results were what I wanted: more range of motion for my shoulder. Note: go easy on your shoulders when you lift weights. Don't try to be a Arnold Swartznegger when you work them out because their small muscles and can get injured easily. It's better to use light weights with perfect form. Austin is a good massage therapist and I'm glad I gave him a chance. I usually go to another place off I-10 but she was booked all week. He really has the technique down and knows what he's doing. I'll definitely be back. Through experience now, I prefer male massage therapists because they can apply way more pressure than female ones can. He charges $90 for an hour which is a little higher than I normally pay but he did a good job, so I'm cool with it.

I have been coming to John at Massage Therapy for a few years now, and he's amazing! I come here…read morebecause of neck / shoulder / upper back tightness from work and probably poor posture, and he's able to relieve me from all of that each time. They specialize in neuromuscular massage, so don't expect a spa-like experience with the usual Swedish massage. It starts off with a simple massage table in the office which is decorated with sports memorabilia. You keep your clothes on, a bedsheet is draped, and then he works on you through the bedsheet to your muscles. But like a spa, there's relaxing music playing (through a CD player!), and I usually end up dozing off at some point because the massage feels so nice. Afterwards, I always feel relieved of my tightness-- so good! John is obviously very good at what he does, understands anatomy, and accommodates to preferences (pressure, focusing on specific areas, etc). His clients range from well conditioned high school athletes (and of course Carl Lewis) who come for performance and recovery, to "normal" people like me with a bit of stiffness, to others with chronic pain or problem spots. He is also a really friendly man with an old soul and a good heart. MT and I have told so many friends about him and some have become regulars. His other team members also offer the same neuromuscular massages, and his wife, Ellen, offers physical therapy too. And if you're lucky, you might meet the pet bird, Dexter! He's a sweetie :) You can choose sessions from 30 min to 2 hours long. Definitely pricey-- 1 hour for $110, but it's definitely worth the money (health is wealth!). I wanted to keep Massage Therapy a secret but they deserve the love and 5 star rating over and over. They're located in a professional office building with ample parking, so definitely give them a try if you're looking to relieve your tightness or pain !

That's the one thing about going to a spa that just bugged me! The massage therapist would walk in and ask "is there any place bothering you? Any area you want me to focus on?" And then wouldn't focus on it. Insisted on rubbing my feet for crying out loud. Not here - You tell them where it hurts, and how long you want them to work on it. And THAT'S what they do. Now, it isn't always pleasant because they get after it! But afterwards, it's amazing!!! I had Anastasia work on my shoulders. My chiropractor was at her wits end trying to fix them. A couple of appointments with Anastasia here, and BAM, all better! Sooooo happy I found them. Found them on the Internet for goodness sake's. And boy, I have not looked back. BEST decision I made this year!
