Is able to pinpoint specific muscle strands that need help. Strong enough to dig out knots, gentle when needs to be. Very capable!

The appointment began on schedule. Marvin suggested and provided extra appropriate treatment to reduce swelling. This helped with increased mobility and overall ability for usage. He is able to pinpoint exactly areas that needed attention and addressed them with treatment. He discusses treatment with you, so you participate in the session's direction as well. The facility is very clean, masks are worn, and COVID concerns are allayed.

Today was my 13 year old sons first session. He’s been dealing with stiff hip flexors and quads for a while. This appointment far exceeded any expectations that I had. I will definitely be scheduling appointments for the near future and bringing my other sons to Marvin as well!

After my second back surgery my doctor sent me to Mr. Joiner or therapy. That was ten years ago. I got lucky. Marvin's knowledge of his craft puts him in a class of sports therapist far ahead of anyone I have ever had work on me. I have continued to remain active after having nine surgeries in my seventy one years of life. I would probably be sitting in a recliner or using a walker to get around but when the pain starts to get me down, I call Marvin. With his help I am able to maintain an active life. I fish the bays at Matagorda, I ride a motorcycle, I do my own yard work and wash my own truck. I couldn't do that without the therapy that helps me manage my pain.

I come in for my appointment sore and tight and I leave feeling so much better. Marvin finds sore spots that I didn't even know I had. I love his pummeler machine. He has helped a lot with my achilles tendon problem. I actually look forward to my appointments. Thank you.

Highly recommend Advance muscle care! Marvin is extremely knowledgeable, professional, with genuine concern and care for his clients. He has helped me immensely with my back, should and neck pain and a number of years ago when I first used him, his treatments together with aqua therapy prevented me from having back surgery. I cannot speak highly enough of him and his practice.

Marvin Joiner has been my physical therapist for over five years. He has helped me continue to stay active after two back surgeries and without him, I'm sure that I that my life would be very different. I saw him yesterday and today I'll be heading to Matagorda to do a little fishing.

I told Marvin my repaired ACL knee was losing range of motion if he could help... He looked at it and said sure. He went to town and I've gotten 15-20 degrees of more bend and he minimized the pain from the stiffness because he got me more range of motion.
Then he went to town on my impinged shoulders and boy I feel 18 again.
Awesome session and highly recommended for anybody who wants a "real" massage.

Marvin was excellent in his assessment and went straight to work on my tight shoulders. He freed them up by working the shoulders and all the surrounding parts around them.
I've been to other masseuses and they seem to "shotgun" areas. Marvin actually had a "laser scope" and went right to the problem areas.
Highly recommended for his technical work.

Marvin always knows exactly where my pain and/swelling are and he works on what is needed and solves my problems. Without all his hard work I would barely be able to get around. When I first came to Marvin I hobbled in like a very old lady and he could barely touch me, but he has stretched my tight muscles and done so much good work on me that now I can move around so much better and he can do deep tissue work on me. He is a master at myofascial release and trigger point therapy as well as being able to drain my lymph glands. He is also very easy to work with, very professional, and always punctual.

Marvin is a highly skilled massage therapist who has done an excellent job in relieving a neck problem I've had over the years. Regular massage sessions with him have helped me remain pain-free. I have happily referred several friends to him who tell me he has helped them also, including my husband who no longer has an issue with lower back pain. I highly recommend Marvin!
