REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

Effective body work focused on the spots that need it! Great work for mobility and range of motion.

My muscles are always very tight, Derek does a great job making it to lose up! I always sleep better and go back to work/gym with more energy!
by Scott on Dec 22
Derek never disappoints! As an avid runner, Derek uses a combination of intense pressure, hot stones, and stretching to keep me going. I’d be lost without my sessions with him. Thank you Derek!

Fantastic massage, my sore back feels much better today! Thank you!!
by Thompson on Feb 21
Normally after back to back leg day and pull day with heavy deadlifts I need 3-4 days to recover. After a session with Derek I had nearly zero DOMS, no cramps or stiffness.

I had a wonderful and relaxing experience, I would definitely recommend Relax Renew to a friend. Derek does a great job and I always feel better after my massage.
