Collegiate athlete, professional bodybuilder and recent gotten into Cycling. I know my body and I know when it’s time to get worked on, Mark did an outstanding job inquiring about what I was wanting/needing, walking me through what and why he was doing it and left me feeling brand new when I got off the table. I booked my next appointment before leaving. Mark is the real deal for massages for high level athletes.

Mark has a comfortable, clean facility with lots of COVID precautions. I've been working with him for years now, and he's helped me completely heal from bad plantar fasciitis, maintain limberness despite some poor back/spine conformation and achieve my sports performance goals. He's very respectful of your desired massage outcomes - whether relaxation or ablating deep muscle knots through powerful force. I highly recommend anyone seek Mark out for therapy.

I've gone to Mark for over a year. When I started, I was having difficulty walking due to a very cramped right leg. Within 2 sessions, Mark had improved that. Over the year, he has also greatly reduced my sciatica in my right leg. I was a person who took ibuprofen for leg pain multiple times a day. Now I just take it at night as needed. Mark is the absolute best if you are looking for a deep tissue therapeutic massage. He works with you to get the best results possible and monitors progress with each visit. His office is very basic. If you are expecting a warm robe, latte, and chocolates....this is not the place for you. If you want to work with someone on a continuous basis and see results, this is the place to go!

Location is in a home, so lobby set up is a bit strange. But fear not, once on the table, Mark makes all those concerns melt away. Skilled hands!

I like that I no longer have pain from sciatica. I can not remember the last time I had an episode. It used to keep me in bed for days because it was so painful to move. It is great to be pain free. The tension is also gone from my upper back and I sleep so much better.

Mark is very knowledgeable and professional. He answered all my questions, explained what he was doing, and gave me stretches (at my request) to do at home. He is able to find and work out knots and tight muscles easily. If you want a light relaxing "vacation" massage, this isn't the place for you. This is deep tissue massage and physical therapy at its finest.

I walked into the office in excruciating pain and walked out somewhat relieved. I felt better and better as the day went on. And today less than 24 hours later I feel at least 75% pain relief. I know I wouldn't get immediate relief however, I did not expect to feel as good as I felt either.
I would highly recommend the Springfield Massage and Therapeutic Center to anyone who may need a therapeutic massage. Thumbs Up.

I was able to go back to Mark for a massage recently and so glad I did. He did an wonderful job, such a complete massage that sent me home feeling so relaxed. He is a careful, adjusting the massage a couple times in response to feedback from me - so attentive. I felt he somehow was in tune with my muscles and gave them just the right amount of pressure they needed. The studio is homey, neat and tidy as well as quiet and comfy. Can’t waited until my next visit. Thanks much Mark! You sent me home feeling healed and certainly happy.

Clean, calm and comfortable atmosphere. I went in for sore muscles all over from recently starting to work out again and relaxation. Mark did not disappoint. He did everything perfectly. He also explained to me on a spot in my back that I have problems with where the actually pain is caused from and how to alleviate the pain at home. I will be a regular customer :)
