Testimonials

Gathered by Daniel from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Oct. 26, 2024 in North Hollywood, CA (mobile)

I’ve been lucky to have some exceptional massages, so trying a new therapist always feels like a gamble, hoping they can match that quality. I was genuinely impressed by Daniels skills! While I wasn’t experiencing any major discomfort, he chose to focus on my shoulders and back.

Daniels technique is fantastic – he masterfully pushed, pulled, and targeted some crunchy spots that I hadn’t realized were holding so much tension. I found myself having to breathe through some of his methods, but it was well worth it. By the end of the session, I felt like a brand new person!

It’s clear that Daniel is truly gifted at his craft, with a vast arsenal of techniques in his tool belt. Highly recommended!

Daniel is the best massage therapist I've ever had. To say that he's intuitive would not give him full credit. He easily adjusts to your body with different massage styles based on what your body needs in that area. My first session with Daniel I had aches in several parts of my body and when he was finished I not only had no pain, but also felt a few inches taller. His breath work, stretching and Tibetan bowls made for a massage that heals the body, mind and soul. Thank you Daniel!

Daniel is a dear man and an amazing find; a naturally gifted masseur and healer that gives focused work that is unhurried, very intuitive, and embracing. I have had several chronic injuries, and Daniel is the one person that has successfully shifted and healed each of those. Began seeing him years ago for massage, and continued as he developed and broadened his skills. His incorporation of acupuncture with massage has been a game changer, and a combination I have not found elsewhere. I always leave feeling adjusted, healed, and a little spoiled. Thank you Daniel

Daniel is an amazingly and gifted healer. His professionalism and candor simply cannot be compared. His use of aromatherapy and sound healing, combined with his licensed education of massage and acupuncture, gives a balanced & therapeutic experience for all the senses. Any stressors I may be going through are alleviated whenever I step into Daniel’s work space. My mind and body instantly unwind as he constructs a journey of relaxation that pulls you into a place of deeper calm and serenity. Highly recommend!

I have multiple areas of pain and discomfort due to many years of competing sports and a recent hip replacement. Daniel was great at listening to my explanations and discussing some treatment options. I have had acupuncture sessions in the past and have responded well to those treatments. Daniel and I agreed on some combination of acupuncture and massage. Daniel's energy is calming and comforting. His touch and sensitivity to finding the right treatment spots is fantastic. I always leave his sessions feeling better and I have experienced continuing and improving relief from muscle and joint discomfort. I am so happy that I found Daniel. He has great energy and a healing touch.
Thank you Daniel!

I am surprised on how good my hips feel. There is movement, flexibility and most of all … no more discomfort. There were many days in past I couldn’t concentrate because of the discomfort. You have provided relief and remedy! I could have called any massage therapist and not received any relief and would have just dealt w/ the pain as if I had to forever. You’re a pro and I’m very grateful to you. I have some lost confidence back regarding getting back in good shape. I feel really good, and it’s even improved my mental state...wow, right. All cuz of you!!
