Deep Tissue Massage
I wrote a review about him awhile back online and it still stands true so I thought I would also share it on here. I'm in my thirties and I've been receiving massages since I was 16. In all of those years, it's been extremely difficult for me to find a massage therapist who truly gives a good massage. I've only found three therapists in my life who meet my specific needs and Dean is one of them. I've literally had hundreds of massages and Dean is absolutely phenomenal! He is a very intuitive therapist who was able to pinpoint stressed areas I wasn't even aware I had. My body requires deep pressure and he really delivered a true DEEP tissue massage. Dean was able to determine my specific needs and then respond with the appropriate bodywork and precision necessary. He is friendly, professional, gentle and assertive, capable and considerate. I am ecstatic I found him and I will definitely be one of his regulars. My search for a great massage therapist in Washington is finely over! I highly recommend him.

Dean is an outstanding massage therapist and a wonderful person. He was able to loosen up my right shoulder, which I had injured a while back, and which made me "lopsided" while lifting free weights. He listens to what you are saying and then works whole heartedly to help make it right. I have never before worked with someone so effective. And don't get me started on how amazing the foot massage is.

Just wanted a relaxation massage this time as I had no aches and pains and didn't want any. It was wonderful. l was floating through most of it! Dean worked out a few tight areas but mainly just made every inch he touch feel heavenly. He's great at all types of massages: deep and relaxation!

Once you have a deep tissue massage from Dean you will never go to another massage therapist! He listens intensely; he is highly skilled at finding your tight spots; performing concentrated deep tissue pressure and getting at the deeper layers of muscle tissue--relieving chronic pain. I would recommend all folks with limited mobility due to athletic training, repetitive movements, and overuse to get a deep tissue massage from Dean. Deep tissue massage is an aggressive and sometimes painful procedure, but it works at making those deep muscles so much more flexible, which in turn can reduce a lot of pain and tightness. It will change your life!!!

Dean's fingers and hands know the musculoskeletal system so well that he is able to find problems and start repairs within seconds of the first touch. He is kind, patient, intelligent, intuitive and empathic. I recommend him to anybody, anywhere, who is hurting or just needs their body to work better and feel better.
