So I've been having problems with my entire body and just tension and restricted movement for quite…read moresome time now. Having major surgery in November actually made it all the worst having to stay in bed for nearly two to three months. And then Covid hit...um, Let's just bypass that entire conversation. I have been craving specialist who can really dig in deep without the high pain and relieve that tension for good. Not just a quick fix. I had a really good chiropractor before my surgery that I loved but, the pain, of course, always comes back. Found Ben Monday via Yelp and continued researching and reading the reviews on google. Everything I read seemed in line with what everyone else was saying. They were all really good things. The fact that Ben wasn't going to give a relaxing massage is exactly what I desired. Booking was super easy and I went yesterday. He was not what I expected. Though professional in his knowledge, he has a really great and shining personality. I can't wait to grow our rapport and get back to a healthy and functional me. The wisdom he shared regarding what triggers what and what needs to be released and adjusted where was really eye-opening to me. It all let me know that I've been really hard on my body for the past few years (especially since I don't remember the last time I even stretched)! but, what gave me great hope is that Ben has no doubt in his mind or expertise that I can get my body back where it needs to be. That is so important to me. Looking forward to our next section next week!

I finally found a therapist I can honestly recommend. I have a long history of chronic headaches,…read moreneck and upper back pain and had gone to several therapist in hopes of relief without success. I found most of these places to be a waste of time and money. I had a session with Ben for the first time without high expectations due to past experiences, but was pleasantly surprised. I arrived with my typical headache and muscle tension and left feeling better. I usually don't do reviews but Ben knows what he's doing. I highly recommend him.

I know Focused BodyWorks as massage therapist Walter Dawes…read more.. I have been getting massages from Walter off and on since 2000 which is 13 years now. He gives one of the best and most focused deep tissue combo massages around. When I find my self with a nasty sports injury , Walter fixes it every time. If you get a chance to get into to see Walter you will not be disappointed :)

Walter first worked on me in late 2010, a few days after a swimming competition that left me with…read moreshoulder pain so intense that even brushing my teeth with the affected arm was impossible. With my final meet of the season less than two weeks away, things looked grim. That first session was a revelation. Walter was the first therapist to correctly diagnose the source of my shoulder pain and he went right to work releasing the tension and adhesions in my lat. His myofascial release work gave me immediate relief and my debilitating shoulder pain completely disappeared within two days. At the meet a week later, I was not only able to swim without pain, I broke three age group World Records! Over the past six years, our working relationship has steadily evolved and Walter has played a key roll in literally dozens of world records that I've broken. Without his insightful body work, training and performing at this level would be impossible. That's not hyperbole. He understands that the source of a problem is often way upstream from the location of the pain. His ability to navigate through the complexities of the body, correctly identify the issue, and apply the appropriate treatment is nothing short of a amazing. Chronic elbow and wrist problems that plagued me for years are completely gone, thanks to his expert treatment. Benefitting from his own experience as a passionate endurance athlete, his breadth of knowledge of the body, bodywork, and nutrition is encyclopedic. I always learn something valuable from a session with Walter. I give Walter my highest recommendation. He's truly gifted.

Today I visited Kavana for a "healing masage" which is the TITLE of the spa…read more To my utter dismay it was far from it!! On the phone the guy bragged about their servcies . Even AFTER I had explained my aches and needs. SADLY, I do not think he even heard me or cared. For furture clients in need of healing massage therapy I say run and do not look back!! DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR. Here's what I experienced: 1- First keep in mind they are on the SECOND floor and you have to climb 2 sets of metal stairs to get to them. ( there is an elevtor an theEND of the building). 1: They offer nothing AS A "healing spa " !! NADA!!( 2; The young msseuse has NO special training . She simply massaged with no special healing manuevers. She said the owner is more Expert in that. well why was I assigned to her?? I WANT MT MONEY BACK. 2: Room furnition: I MUST bring up:: Massage table extremely very narrow with very soft mattress not appropriate for massages, the head rest totally uncomfortable and could not use, there is one single white plastic low chair ( not safe to sit on) the whole room furnition below standardd. I feel I have been decieved and must let others know . I also would like FULL REFUND OF MY MONEY.

The entire experience was outstanding. Booking was easy and fast online. Stacey was attentive and…read moreprofessional. She listened and focussed on my problem areas. As a retired physician, I was impressed by her knowledge of anatomy and her ability to detect and relieve painful muscles. My pain was relieved immediately and I highly recommend Kavana in general and Stacey in particular. I have already booked my follow-up appointment.

I was referred to come here for alternative healthy for my TBI and I made a booking from their…read morewebsite and went there for my appointment, but Tim Sr and Tim Jr were confuse on who I am seeing at the appointment time but Tim Sr was able to see me and I told him that I made the appointment on their website and then he inform me that they are a small business and they are still working on the website so it is best to call them and make appointment but he was able to explain what kind of health they do here, it is call Myofascial Release, and for my case, he is also doing Craniosacral Therapy, I do feel more relaxed so I feel like it's worth the cost here.

This is the best get better! These guys know what they are doing. Tim Janak Sr. and Tim Janak Jr…read more have been doing massage therapy for a long time, and they have been instructors as well. I have know the Tims since 2009 and they have helped me with my pain issues. I moved to Florida in 2010, and when I get calls from people looking for a great therapist in Houston, I tell them to go her. What they do is so much different than a regular massage therapist. The do more of a sport massage, but they also look at what causes the issue, instead of massaging where it hurts. They also do a posture analysis, and have a knowledge in exercise. I can't express enough how much I love this place!!!

I can't express enough gratitude for all of the help Danny has given to both me, my daughters, & my…read morenewly wed husband with all of our different pain and disorders that we have. 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%!

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 !

If you are looking for a real massage, not just a rub down, look no further! You keep your clothes…read moreon, and you can have them focus on the area that is giving you trouble. 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!

I've started getting massaged with Deborah before she started her own company, and LET ME SAY!…read more I had an incredible experience with her! She was extremely knowledgeable about neuromuscular therapy and quickly identified and treated the trigger points that had been causing me chronic tension and discomfort. The level of relief I felt after just one session was amazing--deep, targeted work that actually made a difference. She took the time to explain what was happening in my body and customized the session to my specific needs. I left feeling lighter, more mobile, and genuinely cared for. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with tight muscles or chronic pain! She keeps her office clean and well maintained as well.

I will definitely schedule another massage and am really thinking of getting a membership. I have never been great with self care and have often t guilty doing things for myself.

So, this was a bizarre experience. Kevin was a great masseuse. However, during the massage I was…read moreconfused at times because there were odd pauses and sometimes something bumping my foot. I let that go to enjoy the rest until the end of massage while he was working on my neck. All of the sudden his head knocked into mine.... so my thoughts were ok maybe he slipped. But then It happened again. He was falling asleep! When I was startled a second time I lifted my head to ask if he was ok and he just mumbled and ran out of the room. Super uncomfortable and unprofessional. Sorry Kevin if you have a medical condition, but this was unprofessional especially how you dealt with It when I asked if you were ok ...
