Swedish Massage - Often known as "relaxation massage", this type of massage creates relaxation and ease in your body. Swedish massage involves long, flowing strokes, often towards the direction of the heart. Kneading and circular motions are also used in this type of massage. Swedish massage is not a "light" massage the pressure can be varied to suit your preferences.
Massage oils and lotions are used to create a flowing massage session. If you have never gotten a massage before, this type is a great option for you. Deep Tissue Massage - This type of massage is for muscles that are strained and over tight. This can be related to chronic pain and posture issues. The massage therapist targets the deep layers of muscles and the connective tissue by using concentrated pressure and shorter strokes.

Daryl is an amazing, knowledgeable, and intuitive professional! I came in with a ton of pain and range of motion issues, and left feeling the best I've felt in years. It was hands down the best massage I've ever had, and I've had quite a few. He works your trouble areas with the perfect amount of pressure and stretching. The 90 minute deep tissue massage is life changing. Do your body a favor and go see Daryl! Thanks again!!

Great atmosphere. Felt relaxed the moment I walked in. Immaculate studio and it smelled amazing. I almost fell asleep during my massage. Felt loose and rejuvenated after. Daryl was very attentive to the tighter spots and let me know what was going on through out the session. Almost made me forget my car was at the mechanic. Will definitely be booking again.

If you are looking for a massage that is supposed to be 60 minutes but turns into 35, this is your guy. He took frequent breaks during the massage to do I don't know what. Not sure if he knows how to do a deep tissue on select areas only. I've been getting massages for 20 years and if my regular place wasn't closed, I would never have come here. Needless to say, I won't be back.

With tech-neck, shoulder knots, back, arm and hand pain from overuse, I needed a strong LMT and tried Daryl on a good gut feeling. That was two deep-tissue massages ago, and a third is scheduled. Daryl has a wonderful table-side manner, empathetic, comforting and caring. Revealing his intuitive hands as he pressed closer to my worst long-term muscle memories, he prepared me to feel the deep pressure more intensely but necessary for healing, he explained. My muscles are already relaxing, and I'm even sleeping deeper. Effective therapy is what I was looking for, and I found it in this gifted therapeutic

My back started bothering me day 1 of vacation. While I couldn't get in until the end of the week, Daryl was great once I was able to visit. So many therapists won't apply pressure or just check off every body part during the massage even when you tell them where you want focus. Not Daryl. He dealt with only my issues and was not afraid to dig in. It's truly therapeutic, not the blah blah soft touch stuff you get at so many places. If I lived there, I'd be seeing him at least twice a month and I'm positive my health would be better for it. Seriously, if you have real muscle issues, this is your

I've been to many massage therapists and Daryl truly is the best in town. He's professional, personable, and manages to get out the toughest knots. His flexibility is also a bonus and he always works with his clients schedule. All my aches and muscle tensions have been alleviated since seeing Daryl. I recommend him for anyone looks for therapeutic, deep tissue massage with long term results.

I have been getting regular massages for over 18 years about once a month. Everywhere else I've gone the massages were fine but not great, never really alleviating my back pain. I have had a limited range of mobility due to back pain that I thought I would just have to live with.
I saw Daryl for a one hour massage and left feeling like a new person. I could touch my toes, rotate my hips and had no pain! These may sound like silly things to the average person, but for me those are huge things with my back pain. He spent time understanding my concerns during our consultation, knew what areas

Darryl is by far the ultimate massage therapist. For the past 40 years, I've gone to others throughout the USA as well as when living in Europe. His knowledge of the body is astonishing coupled with his innate intuition, he is capable of focusing on precisely what I need. Darryl goes above and beyond to connect in a most genuine and caring way as he works his magic on my body. He has heart!

Today I had an exceptional massage by Daryl. Without question Daryl is not only highly skilled as a Massuse but he is incredibly intuitive. I am fortunate to have had many massages locally and abroad, both with independent masseuses and at luxury spa's but today's was THE BEST deep tissue massage I have ever experienced. I left feeling relaxed, at peace and pain free ( as well treating myself to three 90 minute package for future use) Many thanks , as I said Daryl you have healing hands.

Great place, convenient location, reasonable prices and Daryl is not only very good at what he does but a charming professional. You relax and feel comfortable as soon as you walk in his door. He can tell me more about where I hurt than I can tell him and he explains everything. He never pushes to hard but works the pain out. I always feel SOOO good after he's done and it lasts for days. I will be a regular and I have not done this in years.

I had my first massage by Daryl today and I can say I practically melted on the table and did not want to get off. It was fantastic; I only regret that I didn't schedule a 90 minute massage. I indulged and had a foot and hand salt-scrub; pretty decadent too! I am extremely happy that Daryls' location is conveniently located on 4th St N near downtown; there was ample parking;and for those like me who are scent-sensitive, his studio was unscented so I had no ill effects from the air fresheners other places have started using. Can't wait to book my next massage; that will definitely

If you are looking for an amazing relaxation experience that is professional, close by and convenient then Massage By Daryl is for you. Daryl is fantastic and strong and really has the touch. After getting a few sweedish massages I had him do a deep tissue and it was.....oh so good. He explained everything and always available for my crazy schedule. If you haven't had a massage before or are looking for someone new then I highly recommend trying Daryl. Your body will thank you.
