Overview

Completely non-discriminatory. Straight and LGBTQ welcome. Over 20,000 hours hands-on experience.
My massage incorporates a combination of relaxation (Swedish) massage with "comfortable" deep tissue (I don't believe deep tissue needs to be painful to be therapeutic), plus elements of Sports Therapy, and Thai Stretching.
Relaxing professional spa-like environment. Clean peaceful surroundings, aromatherapy, candles, hot towels and soothing music. I will check in from time to time to ensure that the pressure is just right for you too.

Testimonials

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

Nov. 03, 2023 in Safety Harbor, FL (in-studio)

Ed is caring, attentive, knowledgeable, and takes great pride in his profession. Very nice studio. Just the right lighting/music/ambience. He takes time to get to know you and your needs through a thorough intake and he uses this to assure he’s getting the right massage for you and not the same routine that he provides to any other client. Great experience! Deep tissue, but not painful. Ed is my regular guy from now on!

I have been seeing Ed now for about 8 months. Ed is truly the BEST message therapist I have ever had. I had put off getting a massage for a long time. Ed made me feel right at home and very comfortable from my very first interaction with him. He is very knowledgeable friendly and have so much much love for what he does. I have a lot of aches due to CP and a lot of stress due to working in mental health. Ed has become an integral and regular part of my self-care. I feel the title of therapist is earned, and he is the real deal.

Relaxing and well layed out room, attentive masseur, quiet music. His deep tissue massage was just the right amount of pressure and release. Ed took the time to learn about me, my body and the type of massage I needed. He didn't rush and
gave me the best massage I have ever had. I would suggest a minimum of 90 minutes as he is very thorough. I will be back.

I have been getting massages for about a year. I went to several different providers to see who was the best fit and gave the best results. Most recently, I had been going to one masseur for about 6 months, he was not available so I used the opportunity to try someone new. That is how I found Ed and Tampa Bay Massage and Bodywork. After one of the best massages I have ever had, I decided to try my original place,just to confirm my feelings that ED was much more successful in alleviating my pain. I was absolutely correct and I will be scheduling ED again!

One of the best massage therapist I have been too. His attention to assist the problem areas was stellar. Put me in positions I had no idea I was able to go. But as time went by, I had full motion and thanks to his skills am truly grateful.

I have been seeing Ed now for about 2 years. Ed is truly the BEST message therapist I have ever had. I had put off getting a massage for a long time. Ed made me feel right at home and very comfortable from my very first interaction with him. He is very knowledgeable friendly and have so much much love for what he does. I have a lot of aches and a lot of stress due to working in mental health. Ed has become an integral and regular part of my self-care. I feel the title of therapist is earned, and he is the real deal.

Everything about my massage by Ed was on point, professional and exquisite. From his adroit implementation of pressure to the soothing timbre of his voice as he kneaded me through the process/experience. By the time he was finished, I was so relaxed that I could feel the roots of my teeth...and that's no exaggeration. As a first time client - and this was my first massage ever - Ed took every measure to ensure my senses of comfort and security. Even as I write, the sublimity still lingers.

Thank you, Ed, for your skill and sensitivity. You are truly a master of your art/trade.

Ed is a great intuitive and has the skills regarding musculoskeletal work that is perfect.
Great massage therapy!

Ed and his technique are phenomenal. He asked questions before the session started and applied all his learnings from the chat to the massage. He used a wide range of pressure that was perfect for my outcome of the perfect massage. I am trying to regain my flexibility, so Ed also added his Thai stretching into the session. With time, his assistance and yoga, I will get to where I want to be. The massage itself was amazing. Ed is well trained and professional. I went in with a knotted neck and shoulder muscle and left feeling great. I cannot wait to schedule my next appointment. Good bye Msg Envy — won't be needing you any more. If you are looking for a professional that brings about results, make your appointment now and you'll never need to look for another masseur. Thanks Ed and see you soon.

Massage was awesome. Ed's bodywork technical skills were amazing. Ed was very professional and was very mindful of pain points I had. Great hands and atmosphere. Will need to plan another massage appointment soon.

Feb. 09, 2017 in Safety Harbor, FL (in-studio)

This was my 4th massage with Ed. He really goes beyond just a physical massage with warm towels, an incredible wrap/moisturizing lotion on the feet, aromatics for opening the sinuses and of course adjusts the pressure used in the massage to your liking. He has a positive, enthusiastic personality and is always very welcoming. You can't go wrong booking with Ed.

Sept. 13, 2015 in Safety Harbor, FL (in-studio)

As an LMT, I understand the importance of having a therapist that listens to my complaints, understands my needs and adjusts the treatment session to address my specific problem areas. Ed did all of that and exceeded my expectations with regards to his professionalism, muscle/anatomy knowledge and his treatment style. His office is comfortable and the ambiance was nothing less that perfect. Ed, my runner hips and glutes thank you for "getting the knots out".
