From the reviews
Being a long distance runner, I've had many massages over the years, but Derek is simply the best! Over the past year, I've added in heavy weightlifting into my routine and he has been very knowledgeable in managing my problem and tension areas.
I have been going to Derrick for over 15 years now. He is the most skilled therapist I have ever had. Not only massage but he understands physical therapy as well. He has seen me through at least 10 very severe spine, cervical, leg, and now both feet surgeries.
I have know Darek for almost 15 years. He is the most knowledgeable, confident and kind massage therapist I have ever know! His professionalism is unmatched. His massage studio is clean calming and very very relaxing. He knows my entire family and my friends we all love him. I get 2-hours massage every time I see him.
Derek is fantastic. He’s addressed some sports and work related “aches” with deep tissue massages, cupping and his knowledge of physical therapy. I feel refreshed and relaxed every time! It’s always a very professional and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!
What to expect from your first cupping session
New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.
