I started having troubles with my left leg several years ago, and my last basketball league I could barely jump. After a few years of limping, cutting back on my exercise and many painful deep-tissue massages, I was diagnosed with hip arthritis. I have had physical therapy and chiropractic treatment that has provided temporary help but nothing lasting more than a day or two. I met Stephen at a wellness event and in 10 minutes he was able to open up my hip joint better than it had been in years. I made an appointment for a longer massage and was impressed with how much muscle and joint tightness he could relieve in one session. Almost immediately I was able to walk without limping and experienced much less pain. We started with weekly massages and decreased the frequency as my leg got better. As I felt better I was able to exercise and build back some leg strength I had lost over the years. After almost a year, I am seeing him every three or four weeks for maintenance and spinning 3 times per week, enjoying the opportunity to sweat again! The best part is Stephen's deep knowledge of muscles, fascia and how they interact, and his ability to pinpoint issues with my joints and solve the problem at its root. This kind of treatment lasts much longer than more painful work I have had done in the past that just attacked symptoms. I highly recommend Stephen! read more

I have followed Stephen now to his third location. You can get a relaxing massage in many places, but Stephen does way more than that. I have had a chronic pain in my back and Stephen knew immediately what was causing it and how to fix it. Now I go once a month for maintenance and have stayed pain free. He has great knowledge of how the human body has been put together which translates into real therapeutic massage. I think he saved me from pain killers and surgery. His current space is pretty minimal (not like a plush spa), but who cares because the quality of the massage is stellar! read more

I was just in Dallas for a short trip and originally looking for a relaxation massage. When I told Stephen about a couple kinks I had - namely in my IT bands and hip flexors - he focused on those in a very therapeutic way that left me standing straighter and feeling much looser than I expected after the massage. Stephen is just a straight up guy who really knows his stuff and where to focus on to make you leave feeling the difference. Will definitely call on again when in town. read more

I teach group fitness at the downtown YMCA and found Stephen through other referrals. He is fantastic. I get pitched nerves and tight hip flexors and he has been able to work this out each and every time.. His knowledge about how the body works is amazing and I'm so grateful to have him in the same building I work in. If you want to relief this is your go to man. I recommend him highly. I've been going to him for about two years. Very professional. read more

When I first started going I could hardly stand up straight. I spend hours at a computer. Stephen has helped heal my body, correct my posture and strength. My muscle memory is correcting itself, thanks to the work he does to guide my body. I especially appreciate the work he does in the fascia. I consider Stephen an artist and a true craftsman. Going to see Stephen is an investment in my long-term health and I feel the difference. He's a Godsend for me! read more

Stephen is a magician! I've seen him regularly the past 2 years. He keeps me "tuned up" as I call it. He is very knowledgeable and uses different techniques depending on my needs. These things are no extra charge. He is gifted and works with each situation with fresh eyes. Highly recommend. Online booking makes it efficient and I love that I can book at midnight if that's when I am free. Do yourself a favor and try him, you won't be sorry. read more

I had a fantastic time with Stephen. I was in some serious shoulder pain, and I walked out with almost none. He was a clear communicator about what was going to happen, and how it would happen, and gave me the most thorough massage of my life. I've only been able to go to a few professionals in my life, but he was able to give me some serious therapeutic massage. Now, I have much less pain and more energy! I will be happily returning! read more

Stephen is fantastic! I do not consider my massages "pampering" but rather, they are necessary! I first saw Stephen at a prior location when I had a headache that would not go away. He worked out the knots in my neck and relieved my pain so much. Now I go at least monthly so he can work on my neck and shoulders and fix all the damage my desk job causes. He is professional, reasonably priced and very effective. read more

Stephen has a pair of healing hands. He knows exactly how every part of the human body works and how to bring them back to normal. I came here for a relaxation massage after a very long week during my business trip in Dallas. It was absolutely a great experience. Thank you, Stephen. Will come back again next time I am in town. read more

Stephen is Awesome! By far the best massage I've ever received. I've had several injuries over the years that cause me lots of pain and after seeing him it's like night and day. He takes the time to learn your personal situation and customs his massage and stretching to your needs. Highly recommended. read more

I had a one hour stretching session. Stephen listens and was a keen observer of the issues I've been having. I was curious about myofascial release techniques and he really knows his stuff. I can hardly express how much better I feel. Plus he is a kind and generous person who has found his calling. read more

Mr. Nering is awesome. It's a comforting amicable, quiet space and he really accommodates to your needs. Sometimes you need heavy work done and sometimes you just need to de-stress he can do it all! Super friendly and caring, I'm telling everyone I know go see him! You won't regret it! read more
