After reading Dale’s profile on Masseur Finder, it seemed to be a great match for what I was looking for in a message. Dale responded quickly via text and we set a date. His studio is comfortable and he greeted me with a strong hand shake. We discussed what I needed with regard to my neck and lower back that seemed to me was out of alignment and he reviewed my overall state of health. As soon as I got comfortable on the table Dale started and my first reaction was wow and amazing. I could feel the strength in his hands and overall power of his talent. Every muscle in my body felt the strong manipulation of his hands and forearms. He worked with precision on my Neck and went from gentle to exact pressure tolerated to relieve the strain I was feeling in my neck, shoulders and upper back. It seemed he employed all of his training and techniques to mitigate all the issues we discussed and all of the problem areas he found during the massage. While he concentrated on the areas with issues, Dale provided the best massage with regard to my entire body. The massage was on a Friday and by Sunday I had no issues of soreness in by neck or back and I felt great and fully aligned. I even text Dale on Monday to thank him again and to let him know how great I felt. I told him he was the best. BTW he is a great conversationalist. He is very intelligent and he has great interest in the mechanics of the body, Health, Health care and body building. He is definitely a 10 out of 10 masseur. He is the kind of guy I would like as a friend.

Dale was definitely the most directive, professional, and thorough Licensed Massage Therapist that I have ever experienced. In his deep tissue massage treatment he used different techniques he used like physical therapy, muscle / tissue manipulation, stretching, and chiropractic were diverse, intuitive and insightful. He provided great conversation and education throughout the session on what he was focusing on and what he observed. I was so relieved and relaxed after my session from his precision and pressure. He is in a class all by himself.

I found Dale on masseurfinder.com and scheduled an appointment at his studio on 2/21/22, and this is actually my second time coming back to Dale. First of all, I would say that I am so happy that I finally have found a sports massage therapist that understands and can cater to my needs. Dale was very prompt and accomodating; he was very flexible with my time frame and quick with his response. He was very professional and welcoming.

I've been to many franchised massage businesses, but sometimes they cannot truly cater to my needs as a runner. I like Dale because he explains the process and provides you with information during your session. He is a wealth of knowledge! He takes his time and makes him really meticulous in providing you with the proper care you need. For example, I came in with some pain in both of my knees, thinking I had injured them. Dale took the time to ask the right question, really examine where the sore spots were, and also asked for the backstory of why I might have caused the knee pain. He then started to ask if I had been stretching after my run, and I told him yes but not as thorough as I should have. He then started working on my hamstrings and focusing on my IT bands. It really made a difference. Even though it exceeded my time, Dale made sure to add in some time to stretch me out so that I know how to stretch my legs in the future properly and what areas I should be looking for.

I really appreciate the care he puts towards his clients, the amount of knowledge he shares, and the attention he provides. This is why I can say that I have found my sports massage therapist and can highly recommend him to anyone!

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Dale is the guy to go to if you want your pain alleviated.

I booked a massage with Dale because of pain in my back and shoulders after days of working at my desk and not sleeping right. Right away, Dale made me feel comfortable and was very easy to talk to. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the body and has superb technique in a variety of different massage styles. What makes Dale unique is how he combines those styles, from rolfing to deep tissue to lomi lomi to chiropractic, to find where the tension is in the body and completely relieve it. He found spots of tension that I didn't even know I had! I had booked a 90-minute session, but we went over the time because Dale is so thorough and aims to leave his clients satisfied and pain-free.

This is the best my body's felt in a long time, and the best massage I've ever had, and I will definitely be booking with Dale in the future. If you're looking for a top-quality massage, Dale is the man to see!"

This is the guy to see for your massage!

I booked a massage with Dale while on vacation in Fort Lauderdale on December 19th. He is very chill and sweet and he really knows what he is doing. He was able to pop my leg back into place. I didn’t even know I had that issue until he found it.

I felt amazing the next day and felt like I had a new body. I’m very grateful for his superb skills. He is not to be missed!

I went to Dale for help with neck and shoulder problems and leg pain. Dale went to work on my shoulder and soon I was feeling relief. By the time my session finished the pain was gone. Now after more than 24 hours I am still pain free. My doctor had sent me to a massage therapist for the same problem. Ten treatments did not yield the results of this one session with Dale. For my leg pain he took the edge off the pain with massage and showed me stretching exercises which in time will solve the problem.


Dale is very easy to talk to and encourages conversation while he is working. Our conversation became therapeutic. He helped me see how certain situations and interactions can be stressful and this stress is contributing to my neck and shoulder problems. Being insightful and sensitive, he did this in a way that was not intrusive or threatening.

One session with Dale has made it clear to me that his top priority is the health of his client - physical and spiritual. He healed one infirmity, helped me with another and showed me how to heal it myself through exercise. In his advice about stress, he touched my heart and my soul.


I drove 190 miles to connect with Dale. My session was such a life-changing experience, I would make the trip again and again if he weren't returning to his home base in Florida. I plan to fly there in the future as often as I can afford.

DC provides excellence in his massage techniques. He possesses an excellent understanding of the body and has superb technical skills. He instinctively knows how to address any areas of concern and is able to alleviate any built-up muscle tension and stress. He provided very good information on how to deal with my shoulder issues and advised me on dealing with various arthritic problems. He is also a genuinely nice guy. I would certainly recommend him.

Sept. 16, 2017 in Columbus, OH (in-studio)

DC is one of the best masseurs I have encountered. He is personable, extremely easy to converse with and an intuitive masseur. He gave me the most thorough massage, stretching and massaging my muscles. He was attentive to my needs making sure that the pressure was just right. After the massage, we had a great conversation about life and current events. I could talk with home for hours. We have been in tough since our meeting and I look forward to booking my nest appointment with D.C. when he returns to the area

D.C. Is a master at his craft. He intuitively knew exactly what I needed. The massage pressure was perfect and he masterfully massaged every muscle. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. I will certainly book another massage with him the next time he is in town . He has a pleasant personality, an excellent attitude, and a positive outlook on life. I think I could have sat with him all day and had an intellectual conversation with him. I feel he is a rare gem: one who takes pride in his profession and treats everyone as if they are a life-long friend.

What a great massage. His bodybuilding background gives him a base of knowledge of the body and how to massage an athletic person such as myself. He went really deep and took his time in tight areas.

Hands down best massage ever. DC is the man!

Incredible deep tissue massage. Targeted all the areas that needed attention. Very nice and comforting guy.

DC is incredible; I regret that he does not live here! I like a deep massage and as a Reike master he can deliver! This is a very professional massage and I appreciate that. Will of course use him again!!

A consummate professional - A First Class experience. It is very difficult to find a good massage these days - this gentleman obviously knows his profession and possesses above average skills! I have frequent pain in neck, back and legs - I can honestly say DC addressed all of them like few have ever done! I felt amazing the next day and now 2 days later I am still without any pain. Well done, DC. I will definitely be a repeat customer!

Aug. 21, 2015 in Wilton Manors, FL (in-studio)

I haven't slept this soundly in a long time. DC gave a deep tissue massage. He really paid attention to the trigger points and his professional training made it possible for him to loosen up my joints and flexors. He was able to massage out the pain from a shoulder injury. He is a strong guy with great technique. Highly recommended.

April 22, 2015 in Fort Lauderdale, FL (in-studio)

This was my second massage from Dc and I have to say it was even better than the first. DC starts off lightly massaging all of your body and then progresses into an amazing deep tissue massage. He finds the knots and works them out! This man knows his craft.
